2. That we reaflirm our confidence in Presi
dent Grant and in the wisdom, integrity, and
success Of the administration uf his high Uthce.
3. That there should be rigid economy in
St,te aud national administrations, and that
taxes should continue to be reduced in both as
rapidly as cousstant with good government
the maintenance of public credit, and the
certain extuguishmeut of State aud national
debts
4. That the public lands belong to the people
and shauld be saoredly reserved for homes OF
actual settlers, and we pronounce against al
further grants of these lands to corporations.
S. That adequate provision shSuld be nadt
bV law for the protection of persons engaged IL
mining and other hazardous forms Of labor.
6. That tie producing, commercial, ant
industrial interests of the country should have
the best and cheapest modes of transportation
possible, and while capital invested in sucl
means oftransit, whether by railroad or other
wise, should be permitted the right Of reason

ment, excessive rates, oppressive discrlmlna
tinns against localities, persuns; or interests
should be corrected by law, and the people
protected from such wrongs, and all improper
roads and other corporations.
2. That we heartily applaud the active
measures Of the late Congress in lerreting gu

with profound regret, in the developments mad
thereby, evidence of political and official cor

ED. Journal The time Of holding the
Wood County Fair is fast approaching, and
the officers arc busy making the socessnry prep
aration. The hall has been newly rooted and
the inside will be overloaded and greatly inn
proved. Additional stalls are being constructed
and the eating hall will be enlarged. The in.
crease in the entries Of stock has required on
additional OUTLAY for their accommodation. We
expect to sue large aud elegant display OF
musical Instruments from Whimey's palace oI

chase can have an opportunity to see and test
pianos and organs
Arrangements havo bccn made To continue the
Fair ene day longer tie last day to be under

Premiums amounting 10 S22 will be offered in
three different purses one purse Of 500, ona ol
S75 aud one of $50, for fast trottors. The
fourth day will be devoted exclusively to tr,t.
ting open tn the world. Weexpect to see some
fast horses on the track that day ms well as III,
largest gathering Of people ever assembled at q
Fair in Wood county weather permitting. w,
reliable Fair present, with any aud everything
that they can bring.
Jack Frost has m ,de his appearance and ha

down and droves Gf cattle turned into their COZ n
fields, with many other acts Of lawlessness CON
mitted upon the property Of these people. VIII
this fiend or fcnls are no one knows no on
can account for such drvilish work or what ub
jcct the parties engaged in this business ca
have in wantonly destroying the properly q
peaceab'e citizens. There is talk Of srganizin
a Vigilance Committee, and repairing to tn
place ofthese outrages and securing the countr
for the scoun irels, and il found, to adnrinste
justice without judge or jury,
Steps are being taken looking to the oraanizl
ton ofa "Grange" in this locality. The euor
nous rates extced by the railroad compan
here and elsewhere, and the combination of III
monied men against labor is arousing the pee
pie to such pitch that they are determined t
do om,thing in the way Of protecting them
selves against these combinations.
The apple trade is quite brisk. Parties ar
here purchasing apples for the southern marke
The crop in this county is unusually large an

THE CRASH.

The tremendous financial crash, under
which nearly fifty of the leading banking
firms of New York and Philadelphia have

But the purifying process may as well be-
gin now as later. Let the bubble burst.
