Notes from the West Side.

Notes from the west Side
At LeGrand business is very ac-
tive considering the general dul!ness.
But first among items of Importance
there, is the building of new school
house for the Independent District
Of LeGrand.
The mechanical part Of this build
ing is in the charge of Mr.. NJ. II.
Wllletts. The house is of brick, two
stories high. The main buildlng is
&c #. by A it., with vestibule II IT.
by II It,, extending to the full hight
of the house. Underneath, proyi-
sion is made for heating by the use
of furnaces, while neat hip roof:
bracket cornice and belfry finished
with a dome and spire will make it
in all respects an attractive structure,
The windows and doors Gre all fin
ished with sawed M arble trimmings
from the quarries at Indiantown
Within, ample provisions arc made
for ventilation and the seating is to
be made of cast iron frames with
turn.up seats. The whole expense
will be about $4,000, and the house
will be ready for occupancy against
the middle of October.
At LeGrand Station business gives
promise of waking up somewhat as
the grain trade openes. The eleva-
tor at that place is now owned by
Messrs. Willetts & Townsend and is
made fully ready for business. Al
this point man with little capital
could easily build up good trade IN
dry goods and general country sup
plies; there being only one business
place there, that of A. J. Dingee
Esq, who deals in groceries, &c.
Indiantcwn wears its accustomed
quiet, and rests upon its solid oolitic
bed in posture not easily shaken
Though broils disturb the street
there still is peace at" Indiantown.
The business of tina. place is prin
cipally, the Touring mill of Charlie
Gray, who does paying business in
his line; the lime and marble works
Of Helm & Richardson,-ne en-
gagged mainly in getting out water
tables for the new stone block al
Oxford; the store Of L. Walkur
dealer in groceries, boots and shoes
and the general supplies of mixed
stock. Mr.. Walkup does good
business and aims TO add dry goods
as part OF his trade. The place has
also blacksmith shop and a wagon
shop. The bridge across the river
at that point is now in repair SO that
for people residing north OF town
the road is fit to travel on, and tho
crossing safe.
We purpose, at no distant day, te
make All examination, and give Al
estimate of, the extent of the oohtit
deposits in and about that place, be
licving as we do that few OF our citi
zens have an adequate idea OF thei'
richness, indeed we doubt whether
Governor Merrill himself quite com
pretended it.

the Liver. stimulating it. to vigorous &C
ton, promoting the secretion of healthy
bile, and SO regulating its particular func.
tons, that the impurities Of the blood ara
effec.ually removed, and the system put in
condition Tor complete restcrement to
strength and vigor. The BITTERS alse
give tone to the stomach, expeliing morbid
matter, fitting it for the proper discharge
of its legitimate functions; creating an ap-
petite for food, and preparing that impor-
tant organ for the process Of complete d.
gestion. And again, they act as general
tonic, restoring wasted strength and in
creasing the nervous energy. These are
vital considerations. No other single med.
icine effects such general salutary results.

G E R N A N BITTERS,

This remarkable preparation has been
before the public for many years. 1t has
been tested in thousands Of cases, and
where the directions were strictly observed
invariably with salutary effect. The bund,
reds of testimonials from the most promin>
ent public and private citizens in the coun>
try, testify to its superior virtues, and the
constantly increasing demand for it, prove.
the estimation in which it is held. This is
not surprising, As the philosophy Of its ac-
ton upon the dyspectic system proves.

An Electi0neerlng Dodge

An Electi0neerlng Dodge
Was attempted, last Saturday, that de-
serves an exposure. There are few voters
in this town who hate Toledo and every
prominent and good man iE it. Such ones
will believe anything derogatory to the
honesty of any man in the town. With such,
Mr.. Schaeffer knew how to deal,-he or his
friends or both. Certain it is, that he and
his friends told some voters that LeAnder
CLARK and W. F. Johnston had tried to get
him to let them take out some Of the "Plug"
tax for their private use. Because he " as
too honest to permit them to do it and would
not SO permit them, those men and others
were working against him. In addition,
he or they said that they tMessrs. c. s ].
and others) were trying TO elect A. j.
Wheaton because they could use him az
they desired. "If am elected" says this
virtuous and efficient officer, 'tyou will gel
your "Pluk" tax back again" Mr.. Schaef
fer did get votes to our knowledge on the
strength Of these lies. These lies got gu,
through couple Of farmers who saw
through the falsehoods and voted agains,
Nr. 8. One Of the young men who votes
| for him also admitted the extent Of the
scheme. The purport of those lies is evil
dent. The author knew that the irregular
transactions in regard TO the 'plug' tax
which we have detailed elsewhere, nigh
come to light and he desired to fores,all
this. Mr.. Schaefer,-.'the faithful and eff
cient,''-must have a very bad cause tina
requires to be upheld BY downright
| conscious lies.
Again: Mr. Schaeffer had man at worl
all day getting in Democrats 10 vote for tn
faithful and efficient treasurer. A Re
publican who viii try TO secure the supper
Of Democrats at Republican caucus o
nominating convention deserves the execra
ton Of all true Republicans. We mus
confess that we never before saw such das
tardly tricks and dishonest practices at an
election as we saw the friends Of the pres
county treasurer engaged in last Saturday

Last Saturday, the Republican
Primary election OF Toledo township
was held at the Court House. It was
day OF considerable interest and
the attendance was unusually large.
The chief contest was for County
Auditor,-the candidates working
with much earnestness and activity.
There was some work done in the
Treasury contest; had there not been,
Schaeffer's votes could not have been
more than half as high as they now
stand. In another article, we show
how he obtained SO many votes. The
Supcrintcndenuy and Surveyorship
cngrossed some attention. Hon. Jas.
Wilson had no opposition, although
his name was scratched lew times.
The votes as cast for the various
candidates, except Mr.. Wilson, arc
pivnn below.

general. Who knows a remedy?
