The best time to begin the work of
reform is now. Therefore let the
men who pay taxes secure the name
of every Senator, and every Congress-
man who voted for or who takes the
increase of salary stolen at the close
of the last session of Congress, and
hereafter oppose them whenever they
come up for office. When members
of Congress are worth something to
the people the people can pay. But
when Congrc ss is but a combination
of the agents of spectators in the pay
of their moneyed employers, the in
crease of salary taken by them is sim
ply a most damnable outrage, under
all the circumstances doubly dishon-
orable. Nc matter when, or for what,
or by whom nominated, we never
will support for Office any man inte-
rested in that steal, voting for it, or

The Cincinnati and Great Northern
Railway.

In this weeks DEMOCRAT we pub
fish the proceedings of a Railway
meeting, held at the Eagle Hotel, on
last Friday evening. TO lcvise ways
and means to build that division of
the Cincinnati and Great Northern
Railway, between Eaton and Van
Vert, at which many of our promi-
nent citizens were present. The Pre-
sident of the Company, James I. Bra
dy, vas compelled to leave for Pitts
burg the day before IN important bu-
siness of the Road, but the Company
was represented by Mr.. Carson, the
financial Agent, and Mr.. Roberts, the
Chief Engineer, who stated that the
Home Improvement Company, of.
Pennsylvania, had concluded to build
and equip that division of the Road
between Eaton and Van Vert, provi-
ded tie citizens on the line would do
nate the amount of $4,000 per mile to
be paid when this division of the road
is built, equipped and the cars running.
The citizens present, then adopted
measures to make a thorough effort to
raise the required amount of aid, by
calling a series of meetings along the
line.
There has been much said about
Rail Roads, but here is the most dis
tinct and liberal proposition ever Of
fered to the people of Preble county,
for a Railroad 70 their County seat,
and one too, of all others will go far
to develop her and bring
the county into close proximity of the
great pinerics Of the north, for the
Objects TO extend the line north, from
Van Wcrtto tic Straits of Mackinaw.
The grading of The line between
Greenville and Van Vert is nearly
completed, and we believe the Home
Company is amply able to comply
with the proposition which they have
made, and it only awaits the favora-
BILE action of the people interested OH
the line, to have this great north line
inaugurated and a prominent division
of this great Railway put in motion.
