Editors Republican,: Matters have beer
so quiet in this village of late that ma
terial for newspaper items, has been
rather scarce. ! = a.. l y + n
We had nopelitical excitement, what
ever, during the campaign, and we may
congratulate ourselves on the peaceful
state of affairs which we have enjoyed
in consequence. Trade has been unnsu-
ally brisk during the past few weeks or
account of the larger number of apples
being brought into market. Several
thousand bushels of that fruit will be
shipped from here this season.
Orrvilleshas made considerable prog
ress during the past summer in the
erection of good business blocks and
fine residences. A number of others
are onsthe books for nextyear. Aparty
of gentlemen came here and purchased
lot short time ago and are now en-
gagged in erecting a shop for the manu-
facture of horse hay rakes.
The Pennsylvania Railway Company
broke ground here to-day for a new
passenger depot. The structure will be
of brick 30 by Go feet, containing two
passenger rooms, baggagerooms, ticket
office and telegraph office for the exclu-
sive use Of the Pittsburgh Ft. Wayne
& Chicago Railway. Next season they
will erect freight buildings which have
long been greatly needed.
II the present fine weather continues
the attendance. atthe Fair this week will
be enormous, something akin to State

Have You Enemies ?

Go straight on and don't mind them.
If they get in your way, walk round
them regardless of their spite. A man
who has no enemies is seldom good for
any thing; he is made of that kind of
material which is so easily worked that
every enc has hand in it. A sterling
character is one who thinks for himself,
and speaks what he thinks; he is always
sure to have enemies. They are as ne
cessary to him as fresh air; they keep
him alive and active. A celebrated
character who was surrounded by en-
emies used to remark: aThey are sparks
which if you don't blow, will go out OF
themselves "Live down prejudice y
was the iron Dukes motto. Let this
be your feeling while endeavoring to
live down the scandal of those who are
bitter against you If you stop to dis
pute you do as they desire, and open the
way for more abuse. Let the poor fel-
lows talk-there will be reaction il
you perform but your duty, and hum
dreds who were once alienated from you
will flock to you and acknowledge their
error. f..-

Fire In Fredericksburg.

A fire broke out in fredericksburg OF
last Friday night, about half past ter
o'clock. The wholecorne formerly oc,
cupied by the post-office, was DESTROYED
Mr.. Caspar had a short time before
moved his store and tho post-offlce to an.
other portion of the town. A lot .
crockery and other such ware, which
had not yet been taken from the cellar
was all destroyed. Topping's Millinery
store was all burnt down. DIR. Barnes
lost all his library and medicines. The
building being frame and very dry, the
flames spread very rapidly. We under
stand there were about $1400 insurance
on the building and the goods. The loss
above the insurance is said to be about
$500.

Make Home .HannI.

One very good way to do it is by less
ening the tolls of the housewife by hav-
ing a good sewing machine, and another
by having good musical instrument
in the family. There is nothing so pro-
ductive of happiness in a family circle
as good music. 1t knits the hearts closer
together, and brings forth the better
qualities of our nature. 1t drives away
the dull cares of the day from our minds
and prepares us tor refreshing slumbers.
We claim that it is the duty of every
family, especially where there are chill
dren and young people, to have an instru-
ments of some kind in the house. We
know of no better instrument for the
parlor than the Estey Organ. Its sweet
ness and richness OF tone is charming
1t stands unrivaled in the market, and
people having an eye to the welfare of
their families, should lose no time in
procurin g one of them. We can sup
ply them.

BURLINGTON.

- Leaving the East and arriving at Chicagoor
Indianapolis, how shall we reach the Westi
The best Line is acknowledged to be the C., b.
& O., joined together with the b. Il M. Rail-
road by the Iron Bridge at Burlington, and
called the BURLINGTON ROUTE. .-.---.-..-
The main line Of the Route running to Oma-
ha, connects with the great Pacific Roads, and
forms to-day the leading route to California.
The Middle Branch, entering Nebraska at
Plattsmouth, passes through Lincoln, the State
Capital and will this year be finished to Fort
Kearny, forming the shortest route across the
continent by over 100 miles.
Another branch of the B. NJ, diverging at
Red Oak, falls into a line running down the
Missouri through st. Joe to Kansas City, and
all Kansas. Passengers by this route to Kan
sas, see Illinois, Southern Iowa, and Missouri,
and, by slight divergence, can see Nebraska
also.
Lovers of fine views should remember the
Burlington Route, for its towns ''high- gleam-
ing from afar'-its ree-fringed streams--its
rough bluffs and quarries--its corn-oceans
stretching over the prairies further than eye
can reach.
Land buyers willIbe sure to remember it, for
they have friends among thetwO thou sand WHO
have already bought farms from Geo IS. Harris

THE FAIR.

| We were so crowded in our last week 5
issue that we could not give as full an
account of the Fair as we should like to
have done. As we said last week, the
ldisplay of fruit and vegetables, was
livery good. we forget to mention the
fine assortment entered by Miss Belle
Armor. Mrs. Ackeret had fine show
ing of plants, many of which she sold.
There was great variety needle work,
&C., and a great many other things
which we cannot now recall.
In the department of Agricultural
Implements, there was 4 fair showing.
In the first place we noticed the assort-
ment of Werlich, Gasche & Co. They
had fine Cider Mill on exhibition; cast
iron plowS, and q great many other
things belonging to their branch of
trade. Next came Harpster. Rudy &
Cos. display of their goods in the same
line. They also made good show by
having a large variety on exhibition.
We next noticed the Millenburg Ma
chine eCompany's exhibit of their
Thresher and Mounted Horse Power,
Junior and Senior Mower, and Reaper,
and Mower combined. These are all
No. machines and have proved their
reliability by their. large and increased
demand. sfs MsZfsg
In the Department of Mechanics Arts,
the exhibit of stoves and plows by VoOr-'
hes & Hudson was quite attractive.
Other articles were on exhibition from
| the same firm. Shires -& Snyder had
three fine buggies and carriages-one
single open buggy, one single top bug
gy and one carriage. These were all
very handsomely made and finished.
Jacob Hollinger also had a buggy
which was well made and finished, and
very durable. These sbuggies were all
first-class in style and workmanship.
We next come to the Harness, Saddles,
Brides, &C., of Alfred Peters. The
samples were fine. There were some
fine wagons but we did not learn whose
they were.
There was quite an interesting little
machine that attracted great deal of
attention-a new drilling machine, made
by our ingenious barber, NJ. Simon 1t
is quite an improvement upon the old
fashioned way of drilling. But we must
not forget to mention one other thing
that attracted much attention. That
was the fine case of homemade boots,
&C., exhibited by that enterprising shoe
maker, F. Seal. This was, indeed, a fine
show of work, which no manufacturer
need be ashamed of. Mr.. Seals work
always gives good satisfaction. There
were other things well worthy Of notice,
but we cannot now recall them to men,
ory. The cattle, We would just say,
were as good as any in the county. The
best were, entered by Ubla and Bird. We
haven't time to enumerate farther. We
hope that by next year our people will
take still greater interest in the mat
ter.

The Fall Trade.

The fall trade has now fairly opened,
and merchants and others who desire to
push their business should avail them
selves of the advertising columns of the
leading local papers, as the quickest
most effective and cheapest mode of in
fiuencing custom. In this connection
we would invite particular attention tc
the advantages which the REPUBLICAN

vertisements, will endeavorFto give the
fullest satisfaction.

How to Prevent Enterprise.

A good way to prevent enterprise in
our own community, and thus inaieect-
ly ruined ourselves, is to speak sldfing-
ly and disparragingly of the attempts
of our neighbors TO do anything new,
and to pick all the flaws we can with
their work. There are some men whose
highest ambition seems to be to cry out
against their neighbors and jump On to
them if they have enterprise enough to
start an unusual thing. They are as
envious of all those who would build up
the place as Sanballat and Tobiah were
of the Jews who rebuilt the walls of
Jerusalem. But "the wall' was finished
in spite of those enemies of the Jews,
and so will the enterprises of those who
are laboring for the good of the COM
munity prosper in spite of the grum-
blers and fault-finders in this region.
These grumblers will exaggerate ev-
cry defect in home industry and make
tanlts appear to exist where there are
none. Anybody or anything that comes
from a distance is all right, but pro-
phet In his own country has no honor
in their estimation. In their view there
isno wisdom and no good unless they
come from far away, or originate in the
narrow minds of these same growlers.
So far as the influence of these San
ballats and Tobiahs go it tends to dis
courage home enterprises of all kinds,
and to drive away those already COM
menced. Happily the influence of
grumblers is not great.
Now, if We would encourage home
enterprise and thus bring prosperity to
the whole community-ourselye with
the rest-we must speak we'll of every
laudable attempt to do a good thing.
We must encourage it by our patronage,
sustain it by our aid and be charitable
towards its faults.
We must make it easy and pleasant
for our neighbors to engage in that
which is right and which promise
good. Let us kindle no back fires and
throw no cold water upon that which
may tend to bnild up this thriving conn
munity.
Everything that tends to develop our
industry, is beneficial to the entire COM
munity. Every one is richer on ac-
count of the enterprise and prosperity
of any individual. We ought to help
one another, and not place obstacles in
the way of any.

Diptheria Cured with Demon Ju,ce

Some time ago DIR. Revillont, in a pa
per presented to the French Academy o
Medicine, asserted that lemon juice i:
one of the most efiicacious medicines
which can be applied to diptheria, and
he relates that when a dresser in a hos
pital his own life was saved by this
timely application He got three dozen
lemons, and gargled his throat with the
juice, swallowing little at the same
time, in order to act on the more deep
seated parts. The Doctor has noted
numerous cases of complete success OBJ
tanned by this method of treatment.

The Very Best.

The question is often asked why the
Howe Sewing Machine is the best. The
answer is, simply becauseit does every
thing in the sewing line with such per-
feet satisfaction. Every one who has
used Howe Machine pronounces it the
most complete. Its work speaks for it,
self. No other machine has such unan-
imous testimony in its behalf. Every
body praises it, and no family should be
without it. If you wish No. ma
chine then, in every respect, buy a
"Howe" of H. MenuezIagent for Wayne
Holmes, Stark and Summit counties
at Millersburg, Ohio. 37tf

The Social Cup.

Out of every ten young men who be-
gin the use of stimulants as a social ex-
hilaration, there are perhaps five in
whose breast lies, coiled up and sleeping
this serpent, destined in after years te
be the deadly tyrant of their life-thi;
curse unappeasabls,by tears, or prayers
or agonies-with whom the struggle il
like that of Laoccoon with the hideoul
Python. Yet songs, and garlands, and
poetry encircle the wine-cup, and ridi-
cule and contumely are reserved for hin
who fears to touch it.
