The Great Northern Ohio Fair
The attention of our readers is called to the
advertisement in another column, of the
Northern Ohio Fair, to be held in the City of
cleveland, on Sept. 18th, 18th, l4th, 10th and
10th. The great success of the Fair last Oc-
tober was remarkable, its receipts being larger
than that of any other ever held in Ohio. By
a circular from the enterprising managers of
the Fair, we learn that extra preparations
have been made to accommodate the immense
crowd that will assemble on that occasion.
The Lake Shore Railroad Co. has laid third
track from its depot to the Fair Ground, thus
enabling it to have an endless chain of cars to
move any number Of people. Buildings have
square feet moro room for exhibition purpo-
ses. Several acres of grounds have been pur-
chased and added, making now total of 95
acres of grounds enclosed. Dining Rooms are
erected sufficient to feet 1000 daily. In fact,
everything has been done that last years ex-
perience has suggested, to improve the accom-
modations, and add to the comfort Of the visi-
tors. A great feature of this Fair will be the
Fine Art Gallery, that will be opened, con-
tanning over $4,000 worth of fine paintings.
This Gallery viii be made up of the private
collections Of several opulent gentlemen Of
Cleveland. Among the paintings that viii be
exhibited is Rossiter's celebrated picture of
Lafayette visiting Washington at Mount Yer
non, painted originally for thePrince of Wales,
and some most elegant ones by Bierstadt. To
see the pictures alone will be well worth the
price of admission. The Association has con-
nected the race course with the Fair Grounds
proper, by an elevated bridge, thus making
one ticket good for both grounds The amount
of premiums offered to be competed for is $685.
600. The amount offered for the best trotting,
is $4,000.
Judging by what we hear and learn, the
Northern Ohio Fair Association will give the
largest exhibition of the kind ever seen west
of the Alleghanies, and we would advise
everybody to take his family or sweetheart,
and avail himsef of the half fare arrangement
and visit this grand exhibition

In another column will be found letter
from the Mohawk Hose Company, of Fremont,
declining the challenge sent by the Young
America of this place. 1t is a straight back
down, and the Mohawks dare not meet our
boys in fair race. They have never yet bea-
ten the Young Americas, and never will Our
boys have enough silver horns, and are anxi-
Gus to run for something more valuable. If
the Fremont boys will make up a purse our
boys Will match it and run at Norwalk.-Tif-
TN Star.
The Advertiser and Tribune indulge in
about the same style OF rhodomontade. Jud-
ges decide upon evidence, and are not usually
biased by the claims of either party. They
decided the case in favor of the Mohawks by
one second, and we have every reason for be-
lie7ing the decision a just one, and the only
doubters are those unfortunate Young Ameri-
cas-, who were so handsomely combed down.
Their vanity was so much hurt that they can't
help but tell of how they were beaten. Yet
while they bluster, they cover their challenge
with conditions which virtually take away all
the rights of the challenged party. Save your
wind, and go to the Norwalk Tournament,
You will need it all there, and more too, to
take the trumpet from the Mohawks. Read
the following:
The Tifin Star thinks that Tifin should
have had four prizes. viz: Steamer, I'd class
engine, hose, and juvenile hooks, and goes on
at some length to give his statement of the
facts The Star says the Tifin companies
came here "to win by merit if possible"
Finding they could not DO that, the foreman
Of the Young America Hose attempted to
brow-beat the judges, declaring that he "would
not leave town until he had the prize" He
was quietly informed that he would probably
be gray-headed and bald before he left, if he
waited for that. Tifin had full Justice done
her, and no right to complain. Let US have
peace.-FiRdlay Courier.

CON TESTED ELECTIONS.

The committe on elections of the
House Of Representative has adopted
a new rule to apply to contestants for
seats, which, We think, will meet with
general approval, and It's observance
would seem imperatively necessary in
vie. of the fact that The last House
voted $4,000 to contestants.
from which it might be safely inferred,
that seat-centesting has not been bad
trade in Washington, when well follow
ed. The following is the..rule adopted !:
1.-THE committee will not recommend
payment of any compensation beyond
the actual reasonable and necessary ex
pense to any contestant who fails to
maintain his right to seat, and will
recommend the payment Of such ex
pensss only in cases where the contest
is made in good faith and with reas-
enable cause. Each contestant falling
to sustain his claim to seat, and claim
ing compensation, shall present to the
committee an itemized statement under
oath as to his expenditures in connec-
ton with such contest. which shall be
examined by the committee or by
sub committee appointed for that pur
pose, and SO much only shall be allow
ed as comes within the. provisions OF
this rule"
