4 ATAX-PAYER HAS HIS SAY.

EDS. JFFF: All public officers of this
country are the servants of the people,
and therefore the people have the right
to criticise the actions and conduct of
all or any public officers; and especially
SO, where such officers have the power
to levy tax and spend the peoples mon
ey. | wish 70 call the attention of the
people of Hancock county to a few of
the financial transactions Of our County
Commissioners. Sometime within the
last year, somebody has made the Com
missicners believe that it was necessary
to have a new fence put around our
Court House yard. They, therefore, We
are told, gave some party a contract to
put new iron fence arouLd said yard,
for which they pay 81, 500, and sold the
old, substantial one for the small sum of
500. We have no objections to making
substantial improvements where they are
needed, but we think this was uncalIed
for at the time, and was done TO crafty
n few men in Findlay, and in the inter
est Of a few county officials, and we have
been told that if the present incumbents
are reelected they will make an effort to
build n new Court House before their
term of office expires. Do the tax pay
ers want itl Would it not have been bet
ter to have built the bridges which are
are so much needed
They have incurred another heavy ex-
pense lately, on the road three miles
south of Findlay, which was in part a
necessity, and TO which there would be
but little or no objection, if the work
was well done, which we think it is not,
and will not stand.
They have let a job of grading and
macadamizing, for. which they pay about
$1,000. We do not find fault with the
price, but with the plan of the job. They
grade road, 90 feet wide in many
places, the banks being from 8 to feet
high, and give their grade only one foot
base to one foot in perpendicular hight,
and stone it 12 feet wide in the center.
Any one who knows anything about
grading knows that this and all other
grades made with loose dirt will settle
to 1-2 feet base to foot in height, and
in a short time the stone will roll down
into the bitches. Furthermore, the road
will be unsafe to travel, as very heavy
laden teams cannot pass with safety. If
we have much high water the coming
winter, before next May, it will be safe
to calculate that at least 81, 900 worth of
this work will be washed away, as nearly
all the work that has been put on this
piece OF road heretofore has been.

Mt. Blanchard.
While at Mt. Blanchard last week we
were much surprised to witness the pro-
gress which that thriving little village is
making.
In company with Mr.. Henry Greer, we
visited the new steam Touring mill of
Messrs. James & Isaiah Bell. This is a
new and much needed institution, has
the latest and most improved machinery,
does f1rst-class work, and already we are
glad to learn has all the patronage it can
well accommodate.
We called few moments with MrW.
w. Latham, who is enlarging and im-
proving his wagon and carriage shop, and
is now turning out most excellent work.
The bIacksmithing department is in
charge of Mr.. W. s. Stoker, a new-com-
er in the village, but who has an excel
lent reputation as a skillful workman
and an industrious gentleman.
We found Mr.. Jerome Smith as busy
as he could be manufacturing fruit cans,
stopping occasionally long enough to
wait upon customers in the tin and hard
ware line, of which he has well selected
stock.
Hebenthal g. Dicus were busy in dis
pensing drugs, and appear to be appreci-
ated, judging by the amount of business
they transact
In dry goods, Mr.. ]. N. Biddle has
things all his own way now, but never
theless is doing the fair thing for the
people in the way of bargains. Our
young friend, ,WS. Shoemaker, officiates
rs one of his statesmen, and is deservedly
popular. Biddle has good thing, and
knows how to take care of it.
We paid a short visit to tile new
school house, and wirh the Superintend
ent, Mr.. J. A. Pittsford gave the differ
ent rooms n careful inspection. They
are large and cheerful, well ventilated
and comfortably seated. There is no
better school edifice in the county, out
side of FindIay, and it does credit to the
liber llity and public spirit of the citi-
zens of the district.
Want of time compelled us to cut
short wanderings, leaving several places
unvisited. At our next visit, we shall
look in upon them.
Few towns of this size show more signs
of progress and thrift. The streets are
kept clean, side walks in good repair,
fences painted and door yards tastefully
decorated with flowers, giving an air of
comfort and taste which is refreshing 10
the passer by.

Republican State Platform.

The representatives of Ohio, in con-
vention assembled, reaffirming the car
dinal principles of their organization,
which have become the received maxims
of the policy of the State and nation,
declare on specific points the series of
sentiments following:
First. The States are one as a nation,
and all the citizens are equal under the
laws, and entitled to their fullest pro-
lection.
Second. That a policy of finance should
be steadily pursued which, without un-
necessary shock to bcsiness or trade,
will ultimately equalize the purchasing
capacity of the coin and paper dollar
Third. We are in favor of tariff for
revenue, with incidental protection to
American industry.
Fourth. We stand by free education,
our public school system, the taxation
of all for its support, and no division of
the school fund.
Fifth. Under ourRepablican system of
government there should be no connec-
ton, direct or indirect, between church
and state, and we oppose all legisla
ton in tine interest of any particular
sect upon this subject. We should not
fail to profit by the experience of for
eign governments where the efforts of
the church to control the state consti-
tute an evil of great magnitude and en-
dangers the power and prosperity of the
people.
Sixth. We demand such a revision of
the patent laws as will relieve industry
from the expressions of monopolies.
A rrafafpI naOv,Ia a.,r, ,,aryar
cease to remember the services of our
soldiers and sailOrs. and it is due to them
that liberality and generosity should OBJ
tain in the adjustment of pay and boun-
ties.
Eighth. That We demand that the
public domain shall be scrupnlously re-
served for occupancy by actual settlers.
Ninth. The determination of the Gov
ernment to collect the revenues and
prevent and punish frauds, has our IN
qualified approval.
Tenth. That the power of municipal
corporations to create debts should be
restricted, and local and other expendi-
lures should be reduced so as to dimin-
ish taxation
Eleventh. The Observance of Wash
ington's example in retiring at the close
fo a second Presidential Germ, will be i'm
the future, as it has been in the past, re-
garded as fundBIr entail rule in the IN
written law of the Republic.
Twelfth. The distinguished success of
his administration, which, to the fame
of the patriot and soldier has added that
of the capable and judicious statesman,
entities President Grant to the gratitude
of his eountrymen.

MT. BLANCHARD LETTER,

Mt. BLANCHARD, o., Sept. %, 1875.
EDS. JKFF: As nothing has appeared
in your columns from this place for some
weeks, we take this opportunity of iot-
ting a few items.
Our farmers are all very busy cutting
corn and seeding. Quite n number are
through with the latter.
Mr.. ]. n. Biddle has Just returned
from the East, where he has been select
ing a fine assortment of dry goods, boots
and shoes, &C., for the fall and winter
trade. His store is the only one here
at present. We have a good vacant
room and can support another store
very easily.
Our school is passing off very well
under the management of ]. A. Pitts
ford. Something over thirty foreign
scholars are in attendance. Our School
Board intend to encircle the yards with
beautiful new fence.
There was quite an excitement on
our streets last Sabbath noon, OCCASION
ed by the cry of fire. 1t took place in
the Odd Fellows Hall. but by the prompt
assistance of all our citizens the fire was
soon checked. The damage to hall
property will not exceed 500: fully in
sured. The fire is supposed to have
originated in spittoon box, which was
filed with sawdust. Some fellow of
the mystic links" dropped cigar stub
in it.
Our enterprising millers, Messrs. James
and Zay Bell, are having all they can
possibly do. They grind all day and
night, and are doing good work.
We noticed the sheriff and prosecut-
ing attorney in our village yesterday,
besides two or three other lawyers and
deputies. AS Court takes place soon we
presume they were up to see if we had
any business.
Several of our citizens will have arti-
ticles on exhibition at the fair next
week.
Yours, &C., S. A.

bic here this evening.
