The County Printer.

who holds the Office ofprinter tC
the Democratic Court House
Ring and chief sucker Of the
county tit, is shocked to think
that u. s. Assessors get S. pei
day while they are making as
sessments. This was all right
when Andy Johnson was Pres
ident and Democrats held the
offices; but We pass this fac
by, because it Is part Of theil
creed never to complain O.
anything as long as Democrat
ic officials draw the salaries
Whether an Assessors salary
is too great or too small we dc
not propose to discuss, for we
know of none of them who got
rich, and a Republican Con-
gress, thanks to the economy
of a Republican administra-
tion, has legislated the office
nearly out of existence.
But how has it been with
His Littleness, ]. W. Bowen, the
Democratic County Printer
Has he got rich or does the
world drag hard with him9 Let
the facts speak for themselves.
About two years ago he was
out at the elbows, out at the
heels, couldn't pay for his pa
per in the express office, and
his own Office was mortgaged
for twice its value. To-day he
dresses in broadcloth, the
mortgage, we understand, is
lifted, he owns valuable town
property, hesides town lots in
Dundas and Virginia City, and
sports a horse and buggy for
pleasure riding during his leis-
ure moments.
Whence this unexampled pros
perity? Does he make his mon
ey by printing eighth'sheet bills
ats1.5O per hundred? No; q man
would starve to death at that
kind of work. Does he make it
by giving quarter column puffs
monthly to magazines and taking
q copy of the magazine for pay
men9 No, he loses money on
that. Does he makeit by publish
ing quack advertisements for
quarter price and putting them
for nothing? No, indeed; he is
printer to the Court House Ring,
charging the county and those
whe ore SO unfortunate as to
fall into the hands Of the Sheriff,
two prices, so as to make up
what he loses by quacks, maya
zines, etc. The people pay the
taxes and foot the bills. Per-
haps this public printer will in
form us what he gets per day. Is
It IS, $50, or 500? About 500
in the Rains case, isn't it? Same
for .Semi.Annual statement Of
the Auditor and Treasurer, and
twice that in the Eagle Furnace
case. What a shame that the
people should thus starve the
poor public printer-but it is they
who foot the bills, buy his houses,
fast horses and town lots.

and dollars. The people are
able and should themselves
secure this bonus. The Ports
mouth Branch-a mineral road
has kept up the M. & @. Road,
and is worth more money as a
paying investment. See how
the coal trade and railroads are
building up Logan, and they
are still working for more. A
road is now being built to
Straitsvllle, to get coal being
the sole object. Our coal is
better than the Straitsville coal;
analysis shows it. Their veins
are thicker, but coal can be
mined from a vein the thickness
of ours, cheaper than it can be
from a thicker vein. But the
fact that the Straitsville and
Logan road is being built for
coal alone shows the value oil
that commodity as an article OF
commerce, and what capitalists
think of it. We need a road
more than a purely agricultural
county; for hogs and cattle can
be driven to market while coal
and pig iron must be hauled.
What we want now is money;
we must have it. He believed
We were moving just right
make haste slowly. 1t has
been 5000 years since this
mineral belt was placed here,
and even if it should take us
ten years to build the road we
will have accomplished more
in the ten years than those who
preceded US did in six thousand
years. Didn't own land here,
and didn't make iron, but he
had a general interest in the
road, and wanted to see it built;
he wanted competition; had
nothing to say against the NJ. &
O. road. 1t was just like other
roads. Freight was sent from
the Ohio River right past our
door to points north, for So less
than we can. We must build
a competing line, and should
not allow ourselves to be skin
ned alive. But get money
enough to make sure of the
road before you comm ence
spending, so that you will not
fail or fall in the hands of a for.
eign corporation.
Mr.; W. II. Langley, of CALI
polls, was next called upon.
He lived in a place where COM
munication with the world was
hard. He had met an old
gentleman to-day who said that
years ago he had hauled wheat
toGallipoliS. Railroads had now
taken that trade to other POINTS,
and Gallipolis was feeling its
loss. In 1852 a road was sur.
veyed from Gallipolis to the
NJ. q o. road, and 100000 in
stock was taken, the object be.
ing to make a through route
in connection with the Coving.
ton & Ohio road. The people
Of Virginia would not build the
J. & o. road, because it led to a
rec State, and they were
'fraid negroes would run of, so
he project was abandoned, and
ubscrir tionS were not collect,
Il. at that time the coal
rade was no object but it h as
increased enormously, and mil
ions of bushels are now used.
Last May he was requested by
,he incorporators to go to Col,
1mbus, and learn the feeling
here. Started; compelled to

If his road, to get there. He

PRACTICAL business man and the
PRESIDENT of the Columbus &

making his business known,

at home he reported the feeling.
Books were opened and in a
little while $4,000 stock was
taken, and the people began to
ask, what are they doing at
McArthurl $4,000 was taken,
and they began to demand what
we were doing SO he cameupto
see. Now, the stock of thisroad
will pay, for it is of easy grade
and never leaves the mineral
belt until within fifteen miles
of Gallipolis. Here you have
coal under you and around you,
which you can take to the Ohio
for one cent per ton per mile
tho b. & o. road charges you
six cents. The officers Of Vim.
ton Furnace Co. informed him
that they could ship 300 tons Of
coal per day if they could get
fair rates and facilities. We
own thousands of dollars worth
of coal and go hungry to bed
because we have no market.
On the road here he saw Mr..
Green and Davis of fPortsmouth,'
ard Mr.. McGee; they would
subscribe literally. Here he
found long faces, but no long
subscriptions. He was going
| to stay here until we determin-
ed what we would do, and
hoped we would soon subscribe
to get rid Of him. Let every
man do his duty regardless Of
his neighbor. One man may
hold back dozen. 1t is no use
to ask men of small means il
the large land owners and the
men of means won't come out.
FL. @. Jones was next called
out. He didn't think We want.
ed talk. He had put his name
down for what he could afford.
We must build now or never,
and the necessary thing is
money. 5000 miles of road
are now in operation carrying
on the commerce Of the State.
Railroads are an element and
a producer of wealth. They
bring in capital and pay taxes.
10000 men are in their employ.
They paid out last year thirty
five millions of dollars, besides
four millions of interest, one
million of taxes, and ten mil
lions of dividends. Nearly all
OF the roads run in one direcr
ton, and competition is SO
great that they were running
cattle from this State to New
York City at one dollar per car.
load. BY building this road
we cut them all, placing us
near to all of them and make
them compete. 1t is useless to
undertake to legislate freights
or fares down. We must do it
by competition. We can get
no accommodations from the
B. & o. road. Itis their object
to get a great through route.
But with all this, all hands
would turn out to guard the N.
& g. road, if it was to be tern
up. This shows us the impor>
tance of railroads. Let every
man give what he can. Put
your money in, and it will sure
ly come back. In six months,
Logan will have a straight road
to the lakes. By building our
road, we make direct connec.
ton with them.
MIR. Bundy stated, showing
what competition would do,
that freights which cost him
twenty.ei cents irom Berlin
x Roads to Portsmouth, cost
but twenty eight cents from
Portsmouth to Chicago. 7'
