Some of the Cleveland people are
terribly angry because that city was
overlooked, and the State Fair was
located at Springfield. AS we under
stand, the State Board of Agriculture
located the Fair ut the point they
thought would accommodate the peo-
pie. For the last two years the Fair
has been held in the northern part of
/ the State, and it would be manifest in
justice 10 the people in Central and
Southern Ohio to continue it in this
section. Again, the Board is made up
Ofa majority of members living north,
and had they decided to locate it in
Northern Ohio they would have laid
themselves open to grave suspicion.
As regards the location we believe it
gives general satisfaction, and that
the Board is upheld in its decision.
We are satisfied that no better place
than Springfield could have been fixed
upon. 1t is easy of access is thri-
wing, live city, and its inhabitants are
public spirited. The fair thing will be
done with its guests.
Decidedly COOl.-E. Hannaford &
Co., Book Publishers, sent us this
week, very neatly worded editorial
and advertisement which they mod
estly requested us to publish one or
more times for which they will send
us copy of book which retails at
$500. Careful calculation shows that,
according to our regular and only
rates, the advertising would amount
to $40. We rather guess we won't
advertise at such rates.
We are always willing to advertise
a good, readable book to the full ex-
tent of its commercial value, and take
copy in payment therefor, but
more than that we will not do, unless
the "order IS accompanied with the
cashn OF good assurance given that
we will get pay at regular rates. Book
publishers will take notice and govern
themselves accordingly.

With the exception of the fact that
the Pioneer Association selected Feb.
22d as an appropriate day for their an
nual meeting, on account of its being
amemorable day, no regard, whatever,
was paid to the memory Of the illus
triOus Washington, in this city,.
While many of the towns and cities
in the vicinity celebrated the day by
appropriate ceremonies, it would ap-
pear that we, of Tifin, had entirely
forgotten that such man as Wash
ington had ever existed.
