THE LIBRARY AssoCIATIoN.-It Is to be
that this once popular institution
has been allowed during the past year to
remain dormant We hope the Directors
will take the matter into consideration, and
we have no doubt the people will heartily
respond to any energetic efforts that may
be made to revive its usefulness, either III
regard to lectures, the debating society or
the library. 1t will be observed from our
advertising columns, that the members are
invited to hold Conversational meeting in
the Reading room on Monday evening at
O'Clock The subject proposed for con

The Marshal arrested two young
men on Sunday morning last, for APP
pearing on our streets a little too
much sPIRIT-ually inclined. 1t is not
known at what place of worship they
imbibed so freely. They were taken
before the Mayor and being too much
intoxicated to go to trial, they were
committed to Jail to sober up. Du-
ring the time they were in the May

insulting that his Honor arrested them
on new warrants for contempt of

CLERKS OFFICE, August g, 1872.


Mr.. EDIToR.-Have the kindness to
grant me space to make this personal
explanation in reference to your pub
lication in connection with my Off
cial conduct. Through the courtesy
of friends I was permitted to make a
hastv examination of a list OF cases
disposed of in my first two terms of
Court in which over charges were
made for record. l have made q par
tial comparison of these statcsments
with the cases, and find them over
stated by your informant but i'll part
true. 1t is justice to myself to say
that they were nearly all of them tax
ed up by my predecessor, while work
ing for me as Deputy Clerk, as the
Cost Bills in the files will show
Some of this work has already been
corrected and I propose to correct the
rest of it, and any other errors that
may have occurred, and for that pur-
pose will be pleased to have any of
the litigants interested to call at the
Clerks office in company with the
Attorney who had charge Of their
case, and l will render full and entire
satisfaction. d. B. MORROW,
Clerk of PrGble County.

Agricultural Fair Premiums.

To the exclusion of our usual vari-
ETY. of local and other reading matter.
we give in this weeks issue of ouI
paper the list of Premiums TO be
awarded at our County Fair which
commences on the 24th of the present
month. 1t is large and liberal and is
open to every branch of industry pur-
sued in u county, and it would GER
tainly afford us much pleasure and
satisfaction to be able to say, after ii
closes, that it was the best attended
and give the most general satisfaction
of any that has yer been held in our
county. The Officers are all first class
men, and I doing all in their power
to make it a success, but we think they
have made a fatal mistake in under
taking to conduct it upon what our
"christian" neighbor of the Register
terms a "moral plan !"-that is by eX-
Guiding from the grounds Shows,
Dancing tents or Rings, SC, and in
stead of these amusements, we sup
pose the aforesaid editor would re-
commend the erecting of a tent for the
purpose of opening and closing with
prayerl Some of these highly emo
ral and trooIy christian" individuals
go so far as to advocate the exclusion
of fast horses! In all seriousness, and
in the name of common sense, who
yer heard of a County Fair being
conducted upon "moral principles"
except so far as to prevent gambling or
rowdyism on the grounds? The
County Fairs that are the most pros
porous and the most successful, in
every State in the Union, are those
that throw open their gates to every
thing that is decent. The more noise,
the more confusion, the more din
there is about an institution of this
kind, the more attractive it is and the
larger the attendance will be, and we
hope that our Agricultural Board will
reconsider their action in this matter,
and as heretofore, admit all Shows,
dancing tents, &c, and let these "pi-
GUS" individuals who are so very SEN
sitfve about their morality being Of
Tended, either remain away or go to
their closets before going there, and
petition the Lord to strengthen their
backbenes- sufficient to prevent them
from coming i'll contact with the
"world, the flesh and the deyil!" Our
Agricultural Society is not financially
i'll a condition to exclude these prof.
table concerns now, and the expert
ment had better be postponed until it
is. This is our say.

We heard a good Grant Republi-
can say the other day, after reading
the last issue of the Register, that
when Morris took charge of hat pa
per, this county could be relied upon
for nine hundred majority for their
party-but now from three to four
hundred was all they can do, and
another year of his brilliant services
will make it that many for our oppo-
nents!" We look for that at the Oc-
tober election.
Eaton weekly Democrat. [volume] (Eaton, Ohio) 1866-1875, 1872-09-05

Morris says we visited the Clerks
office during his absence and over
hauled his books. That is not true
we have not been in that Office in six
months during his absence. He fur
Their says that we know "that public
officers are III the habit of charging
fec bills.IN GROSS, and therefore errors
must occurw We know just to the
contrary of that, Mr.. Morris, and so
do you. If all the ther Clerks COM
united offrnses and violated the law.
is that any excuse for the present in
cumbent? If you steal a horse as ed
itor of the Register, and escape detec-
ton, would that excuse your success

Divine service was held in every
Church in Eaton on last Sabbath, and
in the two Halls, and all well attend

divided between Jesus Christ and

In another part of our paper will be
found a card from the Clerk of the

He admits the charge, but says the
amount is exaggerated. If this is sat
