The Athens (O.) Messenger dominates
Gen. James A. Garfield for Governor. in
1871, subject to the decision OF a Repub-
hcan State Convention. In an article
giving a biographical sketch OF the Gem
eral, the Messenger says:
In glancing over the ample material
in this State from which 10 select a Re
publican candidate for Governor Of Ohio
IN ISL, our choice has Trresistablv fixed
itself upon Gen. JAMES A. GARFIFLD-
the able statesman, the incOrruptible pa
triOt, the brilliant debRter-as the man
whose qualifications peculiarly fit him,
above all others, TO lead the great Re-
publican party Of Ohio on to victory in
the g~ubernatOrial campaign OF 1871.
While we can heartily endorse the
high opinion expressed by the Messen-
ger, Of the capabilities and popularity Of
Gen. Garfield, we think the people Of the
XINth Congressional District would
much prefer to continue their Represen-
tative in the position he now so ably
fills, rather than consent thar be should
be thus early in life, placed upon the ''re-
tired list, " and be tied down to the unin-
teresting routine duties Of the Chief Ex-
ecutive Office Of Ohio. It is only here
and there a irst-class member Of our
National Congress towers like Saul above
his brethren, and when such an one is
thus signalized and is making an impress
upon the Legislation of the country by the
force Of his talents and by reason Of years.
Of experience in public affairs, there
should be very urgent and very good
reasons for either rotating him
Of place, or transferring him to a
less important public trust.
Unquestionably Gen. Garfield would
be a popular and, doubtless, a successful
candidate for Governor. But there is a
score Of good and competent men in
Ohio whom the Republican party can
nominate and elect a their candidate for
Governor, on whom the sacrifice would
not fall 50 heavily IS upon Gen. Garfield;
while his District, his State and the Ma
ton would lose his services in a more
extended and useful sphere.

Another Great RaiIroad PrOieet.

The present routes Of transit between
the seaboard and Mississippi Valley are
not as short and direct rs the interests Of
commerce seen to demand, hence a great
Air Line road is proposed to be built,
nothing less than another grand trunk
line from New York TO connect
with the Union Pacific road at Council
Bluffs. The Pittsburg Commercial says /:
1.-THE parties i~naugursting this project
have ample capital, and represent a new
has not hitherto had a hand in the COM
petition from New York to the west.
They have control Of the franchises and
charters Of lines directly west from the
metropolis through New York and Penn
gylvania to Akron, Ohio; and also have
similar rights in Western Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois.
This IS q straight w~ay-route, leaving
Chicago, Toledo and Cleveland to the one
hand and Pittsburgh on the other, as be-
meath its notice. It will be the shortes-
possible line from the commercial met
troplis Of the nation to the Pacific, and
will save al least two hundred miles over
any line between New Jersey and San
Francisco, and thus will become the
great central artery of this nations traf-
fc, but a highway Of the world, a main
channel Of the gigantic trade between
the nations Of Asia and Europe. For
local trafce, it would control the oil re-
gions Of one State, and the rich agricul-
turaI regions Of four"
An air line from New York to Omaha
or Council Bluffs, would bring this great
international road through Trumbull
county, and would probably include the
A. & G. W. line, although it is stated
that the old Clinton Air Line, which
passes through the northern part Of this
County, Is included in the route.

II Will Pay!..and How.

We heard recently Of two farmers who
each anne to the village with a load Of
grain. One accepted the first offer of six
cents over his previous sale. The other
having read in his local paper Of an adj
vance Of IS to 20 cents per buHhel, held

or 81 more than the other, on 81 bushels
Of the same quality Of grain. The paper
cost him g for a whole year. The above
instance was only n Of several such
gains during the year, in sales and DUR

abroad, and are growing up Intelligent

he sent the money, and that is the last
ne can hear from il. Two Of his neigh

lars and were disposed to invest also. but
turning 10 the American AOTiellItlrist
they foundthe affair described among the
multitude OF swindles constantly being
SHOWN up IN that journal, and thew KENT
their money. The paper cost them sI "a
a year. Did it pay I've could give
many illustrations similar to tho above.
Inc man VINO thinks he cannot afford to
take such papers is greatly mistaken
he cannot afford 70 be without them.
There is not a man in the country who
can afford to be without a tleast one local
paper, ven il it be wholly filled with
advertisements. He will sell enough
better, and buy enough cheaper, TO many
times repay the cost And when this
home want is supplied, we are sure it
