PRINTING.

One Of the editors Of the Repository e.
tGblishment, named Louis Sch@fer, is quite
vituperative against Sheriff Baxter and
Treasurer George Fessler because these
officials prefer taking their printing to
the Stark Co. DEMOCRAT Office, rather
than give it to the Repository concern
We take the liberty to merely say that
these officials last year ran on the Demo-
cratic ticket with Governor Allen, the
ticket that sch@fer and company oppos-
ed, as they have been doing. If man is
an ape, there are great many very inn
pudent apes and as mean as voltaire's
ape.

ON the 10th inst the centennial ami
Versary Of the battle Of Point Pleasant,
West Virginia, came of. The fight took
place October 10th, 1774, between the
whites and Indians. 1t was one Of the
most savage and hotly contested battles
between the two races, and 300 or so
were killed on both sides. The Indian
Chief Cornstalk, led the ssvages and was
killed there, and now lies buried in the
Court House yard ct Point Pleasant.

WHEAT in Chicago is fearfully low-for

to quote it at lightweight cents if that

eight cents in Chicago means not more
than fifty cents in Nebraska or Mime
sofa. There is but little prospect for an
advance.

The State of New York elects one
ninth of the lower House of Congress,
Pennsylvania comes next. Theprospect
of a Democratic majority in the next
House is cheerful. The Democracy of
the States which are about to hold cleo
tions can do it, Let them follow suit.
Up to October 18th, the "posted books"
show 80 Democrats and 80 Republicans,
chosen to the next Congress, a Democrat
ic gain of l6. These States choose about
one-fifth of the House. Let the States to
elect do as we'll and the next House OF
Congress will have Democratic majori-
ty of some 35. If anti-administration
legislatures are chosen in WISCONSIN,,
TENNEssE FLORIDA and NEVADA the Re-
publican majority in the Senate will be
reduced to 8.

THE late election result is an emphatic
expression against the policy of the par
ty in power, and the leaders so realize it.
It shows the general disgust toward the
Grant Administration, and its delinquen-
cies and its outrageous public policy. It's
acts of commission and omission-its ac-
knowledged corruptions and disregard
of constitutional liberty and personal
rights in short its utter failure in honest,
economic and successful administration,
have all contributed to the late Demo-
cratic triumph. The people have spoken
and they will probably continue to speak
in the same way till better and more ca
pable men are selected to the places OF
public trust.

like cannon ball The rope had sew
cred the neck as clearly as though it
had been done with knife. The YER
zebra had actually been pulled away
from what the doctor called the atlas.
The laIynx, the arteries, the tendons,
were all torn apart the latter only show
ing struggling ends. Death, it is hardly
necessary to state, was instantaneous.
From the time the headless trunk struck
the ground there was not even culver
of the little finger. The body lay like
a lump of lead. Tie horrible remains
were at once placed in coffin and hid
den from sight
No blame is attributable to Sheriff
Ivory for this terrible mishap. The rope
was adjusted for fall of six feet, and it
was said that this was no more than is
usually given. DR.. Holbrook, who
made a critical examination of the re-
mains, testified before the coroners jury
later in the day that, taking into con
sideration the physical condition of the
man-his soft, flabby fat, and the weak
condition of his muscular system-it
was not at all singular that his neck
should give way. Any fall which would
have broken the spinal chord, would
have been pretty sure to have done just
what was done. The muscles of the
neck were found to be soft and contrac-
ted, and though the body weighed but
143 pounds, still the neck was incapable
of supporting it.
