Abnac Of Mr.. HaineiA

We are told by those who attended the
Democratic County Convention at Portage
last Saturday, that the citizens Of Bowling
Green, preseDt at said Convention, were
very loud and bitter in their denunciations
Of Mr. HArr1ELD, the nomines for Rep
resentative. Every falsehood that malie.
nancy could invent was hurled at him
and all this simply because he conceives Il
to be for the interest Of Wood county to
remove the county seat to more accessi.
BILE point than Bowling Green. Their con.
duct availed nothing except to disgust hon.
est people, for Mr.. II. was nominated by O
large majority on the first ballot. The en-.
tire Netos Ring Of Republicans were there,
directing their Democratic allies and Join.
ing in the abuse Of HATFIELD. All they
can make at that business will not enrich
them.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1875-08-27
How the People WIN be Taxed.

The people have been taxed to such an
amount for the buildings at Bowling Green
that they should have most substantial
structures there for Court House and
Jail, but. such is not the case. One who
thoroughly understands the situation aud
whose duty il ia to look after the interests
of the county, informE us that the Court
House has been so carelessly constructed
that it is absolutely in such poor condition
that portions Of it must soon be rebuilt or
it will become worthless. The citizens of
Bowling Green not only deceived the peo-
Pile by representing that the buildings
should cost the county not cent, but they
succeeded in obtaining over $22, 900 for the
most shabby structures ever palmed off
upon an outraged people-structure which
must soon be rebuilt il the county seat re-
maIns nj bowling urrv,r, uirvII .I.- .;.:-.-.
OF that village hope to get another chance
to dip into the county treasury. The peo-
pie can thus see where there is danger of
taxation. Perrysburg offers the county
first-class buildings finished and ready for
Use, which will not require repairing for
many years, while the shabby structures at
Bowling Green must have constant and
heavy repairs to keep them in condition
Tor use. 1t is clear to see where the danger
is in such a case.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1875-08-27
THE MRONa CONFEssrn.

Some weeks ago, the Bowling Green Sent
incl, in an argument against removal said
The new Court House and Jail here have
cost the people Of Wood county more than
$40 600.
The above contains singular confession.
The enabling act, authorizing the people
Of Wood county to remove the county
seat from Perrysburg to Bowling Greep,
provided that such removal should rot
take place, In case of an affirmative vote,
until the completion and acceptance Of the
Court House aud Jail at Bowling Green.
The people of Bowling Green pledged
themselves prior to the election to provide
the public buildings free Of expense to the
county. The Sentinel says the citizens OF
that village paid $4,000 and that the
county has paid over $4,000 for said
buildings. We are informed that the
county paid nearly $4,000 on those build
ings, making In all, according 10 the Senti-
rsPs figures, nearly $50, 900 expended upon
the Court House and Jail--at least double
what the buildings are worth. The ens-
bling act did not contemplate such an ex-
penditure by the county, and the law pro-
hibittcd it, except by vote of the people,
which was never had yet the Commission.
ers made the appropriations in defiance of
law and in the face of the pledges of the cit
liens of Bowling Green. This greatly Of
Tended large number Of the voters of the
county and induced men to petition for an
enabling act who otherwise would not have
done so. Honesty in such matters is, in
the long run, the best policy, and il Bowl
ing Green should now lose the county seat,
she can attribute its losS largely to the facts
suggested by the above extract from the
Sentinel But for their treachery aud
fraud they might to-day have the sympa-
thy Of the people of the county. This
they cannot now have. The men whom
they deceived, and who have been wrong e
fully taxed through the influence of citi-
zens Of Bowling Green. are not debters to
the men who deceived and imposed upon
them, even to the extent of little sympa-
thy but, on the contrary, they owe. it to
themselves and 10 fair aud honest dealing.
to rebuke the men who have betrayed their
confidence and wronged them out Of TWEEN
ty-two thousand dollars Of money.

nemocratIc County Convention.

The Democrats of this county met in
convention ut Portage, on Saturday, and
numinated ticket to be supported by that
party at the coming election. We are in
formed that il was the largest convention
Of that party ever held in the county. The
contest over some Of the Offices was quite

to sacrifice his own convenience and inter

selves to the front and are squSndering
