...first number of the Michigan Argonaut, rival of the Chronicle, has been issued. It bears a handsomely, illustrated cover after the modern style of magazine decoration. In general character its first number does not seem to differ materially from the Chronicle except perhaps in some matters of local tone not perceptible to an outsider. Still it must not be judged by its first number. It seems to be somewhat less given to flippant frivolity than its rival, but a few ghastly specimens of Western humor, a la Danbury News, insist upon cropping...

There are some practices that all conscientious men believe to be wrong, but in regard to drinking, perfectly upright men may differ. The friends of the society believe that total abstinence is on the whole the best practice; but they respect the views of those who conscientiously differ, and wish it to be distinctly understood that they have no sympathy whatever with those who ground their belief in total abstinence upon anything but common-sense...

...coddled and patronized this nice young man, but the genuine public has expressed its emphatic disapproval of such proceedings. If Mr. Wilde is sincere (and there are grave and justifiable reasons for doubting this), then all that is to be said is that his ideals of right and beauty differ from those of most men; and that most men will, as usual, resist the imposition of these ideals upon themselves until convinced that they are preferable to those generally held...
