E8'The contest between Capt. Homer c. Jones
and Henry NJ, 0nderdonk, in the Ohio Senate,
for a seat in that body, was decided last week in
favor of Onderdonk. These gentlemen were
candidates in the Sth District. The case was de
clded by throwing ont number of votes given
for Jones by persons who were more than hall
white, thus setting aside the numerous decisions
of the Supreme Court Of the State, the first of
these decisions being pronounced by Democrat

OUR MAIL ARRANGEMENrs.-It is

Our MAIL ARRANGEMENTS is
worse than useless in this world to grum-
BILE at anything. When matters 20
wrong the only reasonable course to pur-
sue is to pull off the coat and make 1t 90
right. Our citizens are all growing be-
cause they do not get their mail sooner
than they do, but they take no steps to
make their case any better We have
been comforted wit. the assurance that
as soon as the roads were good we
should have mail the same day it leaves
Fond du Lac, but the roads could not by
any possible means be better than for
some time past, yet we are coolly inform
ed that the other end of the route refuses
to get the mail through to Chiffon in
time. By this cur people are given to
understand that they must always sub
NIT to this two-days-from- Fond du Lac
arrangement. We can't see it. As pub
fishers of a newspaper we catch Hail
Columbia if we don't furnish the latest
news, when with the present arrange
ments the latest news is two days old be-
fore it reaches us. And our case is not
an isolated one by any means. Every
business man in town is interested in
having an early mail, every person who
writes letter in having an early reply.
If we are correctly informed the contract
states that the mail shall be brought
through in twenty-four hours from Fond
du Lac. IF this is the case the contract
has been repeatedly broken and may be
annulled, which is all the more easily ac-
complished from the fact that our Post
master has frequently reported the de-
linquents. Under the circumstances it
would seem advisable to try new route,
for it is quite natural to suppose that
mail can be brought forty miles sooner
than it can sixty, and some of our most
intelligent citizens inform us that the
Menasha route can be made passable for
all seasons of the year at very small ex-
pense.

The Importance of close supervisio

=. The importance of close supervision
Of the county poor fund is shown by the
following article which we take from an
exchange: 1.-THE good people of New
buryport, Mass, areaghast at the healthy
appetite of their raupers. There are ff
ty-fve inmates IN the almshouse, and
these fifty-6ve mouths have consumed
during the year 1904 pounds of meat,
$500 pounds of fish, "a barrels of -four,
60 bushels of Indian meal, SO worth OF
crackers, and vegetables in proportion
The expense of keeping them was 3d.
4s7. A local newspaper remarks that
for this sum they could have been kept in
good boarding houses and supplied with
pocket money from the surplus.
We should like to see statement of
the use made, in this county, of the peo-
ple's money, for the support of the poor,
and if furnished with such a statement
will publish it gratis.

OUR SUPPLEMENT.-We have been
asked quite often of late-by some one
who did not see our paper the first of
January-what this supplement means,
if we intend to keep it going, and if we
intend to make any extra charge for it.
We reply that it is intended to benefit
those Of our readers who do not take daily
papers, giving them the same amount of
reading matter which they would get in
one of the large city weeklies, and thus
offering an inducement for them to pat
ronize home institutions. As to our
keeping it up, there's the rub! It is a
heavy expense and we shall lose money
at first without doubt, but we shall keep
it going year, and if our friends during
that time will do what they can to get us
new subscribers we shall make it a perma-
nent institution or make other improve
ments which would be just as acceptable
The only extra charge we have to make
is this: We charge every man who now
takes our paper to get us at least one new
subscriber if it is possible. You need
not fear but that we will give him his
money! worth, and he will be satisfied,
you'll be satisfied and we will have our
extra pay. We desire to build up this
locality A good local paper is a great
means to that end. IF the natural ad-
vantages Of Chicago had never been loud
ly proclaimed by enterprising newspapers
it would meyer have been mole than a
small city at best. but tic people of Chi
cago and vicinity patronize home institu-
tons and in that way build up their own
locality. And that's all we have to say
about the Supplement-.
