secure Judge DuHadway's election, and
the matters OF which they treat are the
subject of most unfriendly and general
comment in and about Hamden. The
matters complained of were probably
done innocehtly enough. but for Judge
to apparently brave public opinion and
thus encourage violation of law, or TO
receive a present-no matter how insig-
nificant in intrinsic value--iroh cfimi-
nal whom he has just visited with the
least penalty known to the law, are
things calculated to provoke harsh and
perhaps unjust criticism, and IN the end
to break down his character and useful
ness. If saloon keepers have no better
ideas of the proprieties of life than to
make presents under such circumstances
we hope Judges will have the good sense
to return them, as well as to abstain from
visiting their places of business, at least
under circumstances which may bring
reproach upon the Bench This is an
age of suspicious, and we hope those who
accupy that high position may guard
their conduct with circumspection at
all times, for judicial characters are more
easily made than repaired"
We wish to say in addition, that we
also opposed the election of Judge Du-
Halfway, partly on political grounds, not
necessary to mention here. We had
hoped, and hope yet, that he may take
an honorable course, and make a worthy
officer. We have much local pride, and
would especially rejoice to see every man
in our own town confer honor upon our
prosperous village. as well as upon him
self We hope there may be some mis-
take about these charges

The Macarthur Record last week con
tanned two communications which re
fected upon Judge DuHadway. In one
occurs the follo~ing:
'On Saturday afternoon the Judge OF
our Court, with a lawyer from Chillicothe
who lays some claims to decency, and
another man who has lately moved to
the vicinity of our village, boldly, and
without seeming shame, walked into a
saloon while that band of noble women
were at prayer in front, and the eyes of
an hundred good citizens were upon
them. Truly things have come to a pretty
pass, when the officers who are supposed
to administer the law are the first to give
countenance to those who daily violate it.
1t may look and seem manly to them to-
day to show disrespect to the ladies en-
gagged in this noble work, but six months
hence they will wish they had had the
gift of modesty shed abroad to greater
extent in their hearts
The other closes as follows:
"On the Goth of last February rather
suspicious looking box was shipped pre-
paid from one of the saloonists of Ham
den to the Judge upon the bench at
Macarthur, and that saloon keeper had a
case in court What did this box con-
tain g? Legal papers? If so, why packed
in straw In a time like this it is not
supposable that these things will go un-
noticed. Are our courts to be bribed or
are we to have even handed justice in
the future Let us see to it.
The editor of the Record makes the fol-
lowing comments:
"In publishing the two letters above
we wish to add that we do not intend to
open up war upon Judge DuHadway
through our columns, nor to permit others
to do so. We opposed his election, as
we believe for good and sufficient rea-
sons, but having been elected we hope to
see him fill his important Office so as to
reflect credit upon himself and his friends
who have trusted him. The letters are
from good and responsible citizens, one
of whom, at least, labored zealously to

OHIO LEGISLATURE.

We have said but little about the pres
ent Democratic Legislature. We had
hoped that it would not be as expensive
and disgraceful as that of 1867; but we
are to be disappointed Some time ago
a resolution was passed to adjourn on the
9th of March, but the party members
rescinded that resolution, and tbev are
IN session yet. Much unnecessary, ex-
penslVe and partisan legislation has been
in progress. The State is to be redis-
trlcted for Congressional purposes, the
object being to give the Democrats a
large majority in Congress, while there
is large Republican majority in the
State. This is done by throwing large
Republican majorities in certain districts,
while Democratic majorities are divided
up and placed in several districts. In
this district, as now contemplated, there
will be Republican majority of some
5000 to 6,000 the district being composed
of the counties of jackson, Lawrence
Gallia, Meigs and Vinton.
The Benevolent Institutions of the
State have heretofore been managed by
Trustees, composed of the best men in
the State, who have served without paw
The Democratic Legislature have passed
an act to pay these Trustees ten thousand
dollars, and they are re-appointed, and of
course are all good partisan Democrats
The Republicans of the State who let
the last election go by default, and thus,
saddled upon the people of Ohio Dem
ocratic Legislature, will see before two
years that their neglect will amount
almost to crime.

RANDOM THOUGHTS.
BY THE EDITOR.

Last week 1 said I would make an
effort to avoid mistakes in my paper, and
that very paper had several. For in
stance, in the report of Moses J. Morgan,
Principal of the High School, Miss Alice
Sutherland was reported attendance 10,
when it should have been 20. You
might say this is of no importance. 1t is
not to most readers, but the publication
of these reports of teachers is for the
encouragement of pupils, and it must be
very annoying to punctual student to
have credit for only half her attendance.
And then editors and teachers should be
extremely careful to set an example of
truthfulness and care in all things before
the young.
hope no one will accuse me of any
design to do injustice, where errors are
found. This is not to be presumed when
it is taken into consideration that as
many mistakes occur in my own articles
as in others. Last week l had a short
article about the Berlin crusade, and it
was divided into two equal portions, and
made up as two distinct articles, not
near to each ther This entirely de-
stroyed the sense.
Now l want to make some excuse for
this apparent carelessness. For the past
month not only myself, but all hands in
the Office have been overworked. We
have been getting up new machinery,
and re-arranging the entire Office. The
job work has been constantly crowding
US. and we now have work all the time
sufficient to keep one job press constantly
running, and much of the time two We
will soon be in a condition to keep three
presses running all the time by steam if
necessary l have bought several hun
dred dollars worth of new material this
spring including several fonts of new
and fashionable job type. The STANDARD
job Office is not surpassed by any Office in
the State.
So much by way of excuse 1 could
give many other excuses, but will only
say in conclusion that l will now devote
all my time to the paper, and will make
the STANDARD the best, neatest and cheap
est paper in this region of country.

Mothers, are your little ones fretful? And is

and can tell you what will make your little
child quiet, give it a good appetite, and procure
for it hours of sweet, sound sleep.
My little girl is two and half years old, and
during that time, have not had two consecu-
tive nights rest. She has been sick a numb ber
of times, and no one seemed to know what was
troubling her. 1t was hard to hear her little
fretful cry. and not know what to do with her.
l doctored her for worms, but it did no good ;
and was nearly tired out with sleepless nights
and troublesome days.
l heard of the Negetine and determined to
try it. 1t has proved blessing to me and my
child. 1t has cleansed from her stomach and
bowels the sores which kept gathering there;
and now she sleeps soundly from her bedtime
until very late in the morning, besides long
nap at midday. Her appetite is good; and, in
fact. she is like a different child. often say,

CIRCULATION OF THE BLOOD.

The circulation of the blood is the life of the
body, and its stOppage is death. We are healthy
when the blood circulates freely; any Interrupt
ton preventing its free course is the COM
mencement OF disease. BLOOD is the life OF the
hesh.' Can expect to enjoy good health,
when bad or corrupt humors circulate with the
blood, causing pain and disease; and these
humors being deposited throughout the entire
body, produce pimples, eruptions, ulcers, indi-
gestion, coStiVenesS, headache, neuralgia,
rheumatism, and numerous other complaints
No disease can first be in the body without first
being generated in the blood; and no disease
can possibly be in the body,i the blood is pure.
1t is of great importance to know what medi-
cine will purify and renovate the blood, eTadi-
cate the disease, renew vitality, mentally and
physically and instill fresh vigor into all the
vital functions of the body. This medicine is
the Vegetine, the great blood-puriher.
1t extends its influence into every part OF the
human organism, commencing with its found
alton; correcting diseased action, and restoring
vital powers, creating healthy formation and
publication of the blood, driving out disease,
and leaving nature to perform It's allotted task.
VEGETINE is composed of Roots, BarkS and
Herbs. 1t is very pleasant to take; every child
likes it,
