The maxim that the voice of the people is the
voice of the divinity may in some cases be open
to odoubt, but he testimony of honest and en-
lightened witnesses extending through a series of
years, and all to the same purport, is worthy Of
oredenee, admits of no question Upon such tes-
tihony the reputation of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters as an antidote and cure TOR many ailments
is based. During the twenty years that it has
been before the world. innumerable preparations
intended to compete with it, have gone up like
rockets, and come down the extinguished sticks
Meanwhile the progress of that incompatible
tonic has been swift and steady-always upward
and onward like the eagles fight. Its introdue-
ton produced revolu 10 in in Therapeutics, and
it proved to be one Of those salutary revolu-
tions that cannot go backwards. To-day Hostet-
ter's Bitters is one Of the most popular remedies
in hristeLdom, an1 commands larger sale than
any other medicinal preparation, domestic or i'm
ported, on this side of the Atlantic. As curefor
dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous affections,
general debility and a preventive Of epidemic
fevers, it takes precedence of every other remedy
This fact should teach the ambitious country
dealers who endeavOr to foist their local aborons
on the public in its stead, how futile their small
attempts to cajole the community must necessa-
rily be. Where the game fish have failed there is
no chance for the ttsu5kers.n

SHERIEF YOU'VE attempts to deny
that he charged for 900 miles of
travel in one day. But says the costs
would have amounted to the sum
named, if they had been charged in
full, but he only charged $40. Mo
desty is a virtue, and a very becom-
ing one too: We cannot help but
admire it. But Toney is altogether
too modest. To perform feat not
heretofore accomplished by any live
man, and then try to avoid the honor
of the feat, is a little too modest for
any use-or else its forgetfulness.
The man refused to pay, took the
cost bill to his lawyer, and the result
was that less than one-fourth of the
amount charged paid the bill. But
allow the story he tells to have been
true, what has he to say in the case
of p. Beaugrand vs. D. Lee, ct al
where the fees charged amount to
$93, and the Court interfered and
cut down the costs to a little over $50
His modesty will no doubt skip this
question entirely. 1t is so prOvok-
ing to have to answer questions. The
people will answer, however, on the
10th of October, and then Toney will
be relieved of the necessity of repeat
ing that 900 miles ride.
The Fremont weekly journal. [volume] (Fremont, Sandusky County, Ohio) 1867-1877, 1871-10-06

THE PEOPLE propose to relieve
Toney from riding SO much as he has
done. It is fatiguing and will tell
sooner or later on his physical, if not
on his moral constitution. 1t is ask
ing too much of any man to have
him exert himself so much, if it does
paw well. One term is ali the peo-
pie will require of him, and be can
congratulate himself on the fact that
he will be relieved from any further
service in that direction. Though it
may grieve him, the people will insist
on relieving him that he may rest.

Senator Morton on the Currency.
In his speech at Cincinnati, Senator Nor
ton made the following reference to our sys-
tenn of paper currency:
And might now refer to the general con-
dition of the country. When has this country
been so prosperous as she is today When
has business been on a footing so solid as it
now is? When have you had a currency so
good as that which you now have? Even in
the old times, when your State banks paid
specie for their notes, your currency was far
inferior to what 1t Is now. You can now take
Ohio money and pay debts in the State of New
York. Then you had to pay exchange, and
the people of the West paid millions in the
way of exchange every year because the notes
of Western Banks and Southern Banks were
not current in the Eastern States, and could
not be made so. And then there was a gen.
eral want of confidence. The people of Ohio
had no means of knowing how much money
was issued by the banks Of Indiana. You did
not know what security there was for their
currency, and you never received hundred
dollars without examining the counterfeit de-
tector to see whether the banks were good OF
not, or whether the paper was at a discount.
Do you want to return to the old State Bank
system2 Never. You have got such as you
never had, and there is now more confidence
than ever before. All fear of panic has
passed away When the war ended every
body said we would have a panic, but now
six or seven years are passed, and all appre-
tensions of panic have passed away. WhyG
Because you have got a currency that you
know is good. And you know very well how
much currency there is out; but, under the old
State banking system, you could not tell
whether there were two hundred or five hun
dred millions aAoat, and there was want Of
public confidence. All that has passed away,

there are but a few days in which to

all doing what yon can to secure a
glorious Republican victory? Let
no one deceive himself with the idea
that it makes but little difference
which party is successful. The ne
cessity is just as great now as it was
during the rebellion, or at any other
time since, for the continuation of
the Republican party in power But
for the Republicans the Union would
have been wholly destroyed by the
rebellion. They saved it, and they
alone, can continue prosperity. Let
no one who deserves the name of Re
publican, then, be Indifferent now.

The prisoner was arrested by man

has not till this day paid Mr.. Baker
anything. He once offered to give
him So, but Mr.. Baker couldn't see
that any more than Toney viii be

which properly belonged to the one

TOneV's CHARGES.


1t may be an unpleasant matter to
examine the official record of a pub
lie servant, but it is sometimes es-
sential for the public good, and
that must be the excuse for the
deed. If his record will stand IN
vestigation the verdict will be well
done, good and faithful" but if
otherwise he must expect condem-
nation. Among the charges made
against Sheriff Young is that Of
overcharging costs, and as evidence
of the fact a number of cases are eli
ted, among them are
In the case Of J. HoIbrook vs.
Trustees of York township. Sher-
ifs charges were $S2,2O. Legal
fees would have been $3.50 settled
for $50, which though not as large
as the original charge is yet more
than so per cent. above what he
should have received.
In the case of H. Thomas VS.. 2.
F Thomas the charges were $46.S2,
which he settled for $40. This was
the case in which he charged for
900 miles of travel, and $40 hardly
paid for the wear and tear of-con-
science.
In the case Of 2. Beaugraud VS.. D.
Lee, ct al, the Sheriffs charges were
S93.85. But the courts attention
having been called to the matter, the
bill of costs collapsed to $66.08.
1.-THE case of Geo. j. Maire vs.. E.
Kohler, furnishes another example,
where what should have been $3.50
was charged at 5000.
In the case ofC. Miller vs.. J. Mil
Ter, the Sheriff charged $l41 for
what $3.50 should have paid. And
his ability in that direction is further
evidenced by his charging $l9.65 for
the same service which Sheriff Rus
sci performed for 1925.
Now these may seem small mat
ters, but they are weighty, and are

What Putnam is Charged With.


We give the charges in brief, and
without further comment than to say,
examine them carefully, note the
character of them. They are all

But instead, they were dismissed at
the cost Of the county, and you, tax
payers, have had to foot the bill:

TAxATIoN.-It is the constant cry
of the Democracy that the Repub-
Iicans are increasing the taxation of
the people, and they fix up the fig
ures to suit their fancy and let them
90 at that, no matter how often they
are corrected. Their effort to show
that the State taxes have been Ia
creased is met thus wise, however
and the people can see for them
selves whether to place any conf
dence in the statements of the De-
mOcracV.
