Editorial Notes

We have American tin plate now, and the democratie tin peddlers who seared the country into a democratie victory last year are peiling milk pans as cheap as ever they did, and by next year will be selling a better article, home made, for less money than ever before. The laboring man's dinner pail is now home made, will last longer and cost leas than any foreign one, of democratie origin, ever did. The Adrián Press man mourns over his win Btatement that the trip to Cincinnati to attend the recent national meeting of republican leagues, cost Cap't Allen, Dr. Owen and Mr. Beal, delegates from tljis county, $50 a piece, and all for glory. Don't think for a mo. ment, dear brother, thatbecause Adrián elected a democratie justice of the peace and some other democratie officers, that the whole country is going to the demnition bowwows. "Aa a rule, newspaper publishers, whose papers have any standing, always base their rate upon their circulation, when bidding ior matter for their columns." Our Huron street cotemporary, The Register, 'iviug the rulo by which it bids for matter in its columns, reminds 08 of its last bid for the supervisors proceedings when it bid just the cost of setting it up to print the pamphlet and charged nothing for the space it took in the columus of its paper.

The Ypsilanti Commercial has this item, the truth of which is quite apparent : "The great colleges of the country that started 'schools of journalism' several years ago with the declared intention of turning out ready-made newspaper men havo discovered, what was already known by every veteran newspaper worker, that they had attempted an impossibility and have abolished that braneh of their curriculum. A college education is a very desirable thiug for a beginner in newspaper vork but i is only hard practical experience and touching elbows with all kinds and classes of people that can make a good newspaper man, aud no matter how many years he has labored at the profession he will finl out somethiug new about it every day. David Rinsey has sold bis E. Washington st. resideuce to his brother Caspar, who will oceupy the sanie in a short time. The Cook House changed hands Monday, Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher retiring to their farm near Ypsilanti, and Mr. Now lin, the new owner taking possession. At the M. E. church next Sunday evening a memorial service will be held for the late Prof. Alexander Winchill. Short addresses will be made by various members of the church and of the university faculty.
