A $4,000 Claim.
AN ELECTOR

Deputy Marshal J. X. Lowe, who was
so zealous in his services in the slave catch
ing line, has brought suit against Judge
Carpenter of Summit, Professors Peck and
Fairchild of oberlin, and several others for
false Imprisonment, who are charged with
having procured plaintiff to be arrested
upon said charge of kidnapping" and of
having ~'corruptly and wickedly and mali
ciously conspired and agreed with each other
to unlawfully imprison plaintiff and deprive
him of his liberty" to his damage in the
modest sum of 5000 'fcr which sum he
asks Judgment and other proper relief
The State Journal publishes the petition"
and pertinently remarks:
Would it not be proper if the aforesaid
Lowe had also stated in this document the
agreement BY which he was released from
his unpleasant predicament, so that the
public can see whether he violated that as
soon as he had saved his bacon?
He lays his damages at $4,000. 1t
seems like q large price for him We think
there is q safe criterion in this matter
Let the jury compare him and the negro
John that he was indicted for kidnapping,
and estimate the difference in value. Then
take the amount Lowe received for the lib
erty of John, and either add or subtract the
difference, according as the jury shall decide
which way the variation is, and the quo
tient will be the liberty of the Deputy Mar
shall, according to his own estimate of the
value of a man.

MEssRs. EDITORS: As by request YOU

MEssRs. EDITORS: As by request you
announce in your paper, candidates for
Office, you will as much oblige, 1 trust, the
majority of voters generally as myself par
ticularly, by announcing ALL the citizens
of Trumbull County who are eligible to the
Office, as candidates for the Senate, subject
to the candid consideration and decision Of
the coming convention at Niles on the 22d
instant.
This l think is the best possible way to
make nominations for reasons:
LIST. 1t makes no invidious distinctions
where all have equal rights.
I'd. 1t would be apt to save very much
if not all the wire-working. log-rolling,
coat-tail-pulling, and county riding, to say
nothing of money-spending; which, if not
incompatible with the dignity of the aspi-
rants, i. is with the dignity of the Offices
to which they aspire; and which, if not
checked in its spirit and practice, will cor
rupt and destroy the republican party, as
certainly as VIC have seen other political
parties dissolve before our eyes.
Sd. This would leave our fellow citizens
in the several townships in their primary
meetings, (untampered with and uncorrup-
ted) free, (and perhaps in remembrance of
"oll men for council and young men for
,rar,") to select with a single eye to the
public good, their most candid, wise, and
prudent citizens as delegates to the nomi-
mating conventions, there to take counsel
together, not for the pitiable purpose of
deciding which of some half a dozen aspi-
pirants, fatigued and painting from hard
running, as if one of them must necessarily
be taken. but, in the largest liberty, neither
committed by c~ozening, nor fettered by
promises or instructions, but perfectly free
to stand erect on this broad platform and
take from my list of candidates (the ,rhoie
of the eligides,) just such and only such
men as under the grave responsibility de-
volved upon them, they from cool, delibe-
rate and impartial consideration shall con-
scienciously believe will be the safest repos-
itories for public confidence, and will be
most likely, all things considered, best to
subserve the public welfare. Things done
in this way. would prevent all causes of
anything unpleasant among even candidates
and belief of it, would CON-
mand from the people at large, a cheerful
and jealous response, and hearty amen.
Very considerably,

Strawberries.

Few of our farmers and gardeners are
aware of what a rare, and at the same time,
choap. luxury they are depriving them.
selves, by neglecting to cultivate strawber-
ries. Many suppose, that in order to raise
them successfully, a peculiar soil and a great
deal of attention is necessary, and if one
expects to raise a crop at the rate of 400
bushels to the acre, (and it has been done, }
We admit it. But any person who has a
good garden soil, and will devote as much
care as any crop of vegetables should have,
will be amply remunerated by setting out
a bed of strawberries.
We have often heard complaints from
those who have attempted to raise them,
that they never had any lack. The plants,
they say, would blossom profusely, but they
never could find any berries. This is ow-
ing to a want of knowledge of the sexual
character of the plants; but the difficulty
is now entirely obviated, and any person
who will procure plants of a responsible
dealer, or successful cultivatcr, instead Of
from some old and worthless bed, can be as
certain of raising strawberries, as bcets or
onions.
The present month is a favorable time
for setting. and where peas and early pota-
toes have grown, a great many can set out
a bed of strawberries, if they will The
ground should be deeply spaded, and free
from grass and weeds (as it should for any
thing else) They do not require a soil
very rich in animal manure, but prefer
muck, rotten wood. leaf-mould, ashes, &c,
and if these are not readily obtained. they
will still do well on any good soil. !
Mr.. Benz. Stevens, of this place, is one
of the most successful growers in this neigh
borhood,- His crop, the past season, not
withstanding the frost, yielded at the rate
Of about 200 bushels per acre, and quite q
large portion of his plants were set out last
year. From a part of our " plot, con-
tanning about one and a fourth rods of
ground, where the plants were full-grOwn,
We picked over three bushels of berries
We're We writing for amateurs only, We
would mention the different varieties, but
our object is simply to induce those who
have never raised them to try ii. Mr.. Ste
vens has a few thousand plants to sell, and
to our knowledge, they are good varieties.
will guarantee that no one who will set
cut a bed and take caro- of it, will be dis
satisfied with his investment.

Distribution of Offices.

Our correspondent at Newton Falls, com.
plains somewhat, Though very gOod-na.
turedly,) about the unequal distribution o.
offices through the county. County nomi,
nations and elections are very much like
all others, in one respect, viz:-the major.
ity rule-and if a citizen of any n part
of the county receives the largest number
of votes in a convention. he will be exceed
ingly apt to be nominated. Communities,
neighbOrhoods, townships, are like individ-
uals, and apt to feel sore if they fail to get
Office when they want it, and as there are
many applicants and few Offices, of course
some must be disappointed
Observer says: While your village
(Warren) has from three to five Office hold
ers all the time, we (of Newton Falls.)
have one once in about ten years"
A few years ago. a citizen of Newton
Falls was elected to one of the county Off
ces, land a very good officer he is and he
removed to this place in consequence of
that election, resides here still, holds the
Office still, and now we suppose our friend
observer counts him as one of the Har-
rem office holders.
The county officers elected last year
were:-
Auditor-O. L. Woleott. Farmington.
Recorders. N. Carter. late Of NeotOn
Falls.
Conmissioner-Norman E. Austin,
Hartford.
Surveyor-Francis Turnkey, Vernon.
Infrmary Director-John Rush, Cham
piion.
The only thing that prevented the nom-
ination. of . Commissioner in the southwest
part of the County, in the last Convention,
was the fact that the delegates from that
section of the County could not agree among
themselves as to the candidate to be pre-
sented, but persisted in dividing their votes
between two, either one of whom was well
qualified for the Office, and either one would
have been nominated if their
friends had united.
We make these remarks merely to show
our correspondent that his position is by no
m ans impregnable, and not because We be-
lieve that he expresses the sentiments of
majority of the Republicans in his Sec
ton of the county.

Newton Falls Correspondence.
NEWTON FALLS,
Aug, 18th, 1859.

Aug, 10th, 1907.
Messrs. Editors:
Politics is all the. rage up this way, at
the present time. Complaints of broken
hands, and dislocatcd wrists, are of every
day occurrence. Every stranger almost.
who arrives in town. is supposed, and with
Justice too, to be an anxious seeker for Of
fee; and this is not characteristic of stran.
gers merely, but we frequently see some of
our friends who are very anxious as to the
welfare of the county at large, and appar-
emily someUhdt 50, as to their own inter-
ests.
However, the political feeling is not in
%trinsic. 1 may say. in the whole south
western part of the county. There are sew
eral reasons for this apathy, the main one
of which is, that for years VIC have tried in
vain for q Commissioner, either in Newton.
or Braccville, using the great number of
bridges, and rivers, in this part of the coun-
tty, as an argument that cannot be gain
said. By Office seekers and others, who
were supposed to be influential, the propri-
ETY. of our demand has been conceded, and
their help promised. We went into con-
~vention, and turned ~grindstone with a will,
like good boys, till all the axes were ground,
then we were coolly informed, VIC were no
longer needed; such kind of treatment, has
somewhat soured our usually sweet DISPOSE
tons, and We are now almost ripe for a re-
volt. We are fearful success has made the
Republicans vain, and perhaps it would be
will to hint that a nomination is not quite
equivalent to an election, though we as Re
publicans are in the majority. 1t has ap-
Tpeared strange to me for years, that our
village, the second in population, business
and wealth in the county, is not more fire.
quently favored with county Offices. We
have as good men here. as hard working
polititions. and as reliable as any other town
in our county; while your village, has
from three to five Office holders all the time,
we have one, once in about ten years, and
as for State Offices, we have not had a taste
for more than twenty years.
There is s~Omething wrong somewhere, Ell
Their accidentally, or purPoscly, and we are
beginning to feel like rcsenting this cmis-
sion in the distribution of the .~:loaves and
fishes" and if VIC send a delegation to each
of the conventions more than usually rebel
liOus and crusty, itmay be accounted for on
the above mentioned grounds If any thing
occurs of note in our primary meeting, !
will inform you.
Yours truly, OBSERVER.

is announced in late English papers. II
will be recollected that he made himself
conspicuous at the battle Of For. Erie, and
in the campaign along the Niagra frontier
and subsequently he was stationed at Nal
den, ON the Detroit River, where he made
himself odious to the Americans by numcr-
u crueltics perpetrated upon unofending
citizens by his command and his savage
allies. He died a few weeks since, at his
seat in Wales, suddenly, from disease of the
heart. He had been sixty years in the ar
