There are now nearly twenty little Grover Clevelands in this county. Some parenta never did like children. Our honored fellowcitizen, Judge, . Oooley, has received another testimonial of his worth and charaoter, and the high esteem and confidence in which he is universslly held, by his appointment on the interstate commerce comraission, with the probability tht he will be made president of the cotnmisgiori, From all quarters we hear only complimentary things said of our candidato for circuit judge. Recently one of the prominent politicians of the county said of him : 4iIf I had the appointing power I do not know of a man I could select who possesses so many good qualifications for the office as Mr. Kinne." The report tht Mr. Kinne has not consented to allow his name to be used is untrue. He is in th field, and desires his friends to vote for him at the polls. Tbosï who favor the prohibitory amendment are making a gallant fight in this city. The opera house wís packed to its utmost capacity the last two Saturday evenings, to listen to the convincing argumenta of Finch and Bain, and on Sunday, Hon. E. B. Fairfield, of Manistee, made the strongest plea in behalf of the amendment, yet lieard in this city, at two crowded house?, in the Congregational church q the afternoon and the Presbyterian church in the evening. He is one oí the most able and candid speakers on the stage and no one will deny that he has the good of hls fellow men at heart. Oslt twelve days more remain before the important election ot this spring will take place, Two justices of the supreme conrt, two resrents of the University, circuit court judges, and township and city officerg are to be eJected. Besides the election of these officers the voters will becalled upon toexpress their opinión upon three amendtnents to the state constitution, relative to salaries, circuit courU and prohibition, the latter of which is especially important. Upon this question every voter in the state should cast his ballot so tbat the sentiment of the state may be well known, and there can be no mistake as to the will of the people in regard to it. The republican party of Michigan, for its invaluable services to the state and natión ior the past quarter of a century, and for its strict adherence and practice of the grand principies that are the basis of this government, deserves a continuance in power, and will certainly have it if every voter of the party does his duty. It would be a serioua calamity to the best interests of the state to surrender its management at this time iuto the hands of those who have always etood in opposition to the statesman-like policy of the party that has brought it to its present enviable position. We píedict a great republican victory this spring, that shall give encouragement for the combat of 1S8S and be the first great step towards the certain victory in our next national election. The ticket piesented by the republicans is an exceptionally good one. lts nominees are men of ability and strict integrity of character, and no better choice of men for the positions could be.made. Republicaas, do your duty, as the hour demanda, and a proud victory for the right, will be the result. "The farmer, unfortunately for hinnself, inot always as shrewd as"he is industrioug, and most of the time whe'n he makes a. slash at the city's face he incontinently cuts off his own nose. That is wbat he is certainly doing when he attempts to abolish brewing and distilling." - Evening News, March 23, 1837. If there is any more foroible argument to induce the farmer to drink liquor than this from the News, we hope it will never be discovered ; and if the News believes that the statement of ils utteranoe is the truth, we must believe it has become intoxioated by the breath of the liquor sellers and bunimers who gather about it to applaud, and praise ts grand efforts for the establishment of the grog-shop. The News may not have received any benefit from the large fund that is 8iid to have been rñsed by the liquor dealers with whioh to fight for their cause, but it talks just as we should expect a paper would that wanted some of it very bad.
