During the county seat contest OF 1855 a

business firms, made poor face and said
he wished something TO do to obtain liv-
ing. They got up rig for him, furnished
him with gOods1and sent him Outpeddling.

northern part Of the county. lie earned
no money for his employers, but they learn
ed, after the slsctiea, that Be had done a
heap Of electioneering for B. g. That was
sharp.
The same game, with slight modification,
10 being re-enacted. A man from B. g. is
perambulating the northern part of the
county, nomiually, peddling needles, but
really electioneering for B. G. That is
sharper-sharp as a needle. We would ad-
wise him to be careful or some Of our old
women will puncture his gas-bag with one
OF his needles and let the Bowling Green
wind out OF him.

Toledo Again RepublIeaI,,

The action OF the people Of Toledo on
Monday most emphatically gave the lie to
the Democratic Ring, composed of SEGUR,
HURD, PLATT & Co., who came near Sc
curing the passage Of the Potter Bill through
the Democratic Legislature by making it
a party measure, claiming that Toledo wa 5
a Democratic city and wanted Democratic
government. The bill proposed to revolu.
tioniEe the government of that city, to
abolish elections and take from the people
their right to elect their oficers and cen
tralize all powers into eight Aldermen
With such reckless disregard for the pro-
vision, of the Constitution Of Ohio, it will
be necessary to place that instrument into
the hands of ANDY JOHNSON for safe keep
ing also. This question was made the issue
on Monday and the Potter Bilitss went to
the wall most beautifully. and were pinned
there with maioritios ranging from 300 70
900. Considering the City went Demo
cratic one year ago by about 500 this proves
q glorious victory for the Republicans.
Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1875-04-09

The .Senhnel bestowed much labor in hg-
uring, to show Just how much 1877 ,00o) the
tax payers Sf the county had been cheated
and defrauded through the deceit and mis-
representations Of the citizens Of B. q. 1t
then taxes it's gigantic powers to prove that
Perrysburg will be as dishonest as D. G.
and saddle a tax Of $4,000 on the county
to complete the court house.
We would say TO our amiable and loving
cotemporary, possess your soul in peace,
and 1--WE shall see what We shall seo." Il
is desirous, evidently, that PerrySburl
should prove itself ns devoid of integrity
rs B. G. To dissipate its anxiety upor
that point we will state that the contract il
let to finish the CouRT HOUSE, and that the
cash is on hand to pay for the. work. W.
hope it will feel better hereafter.
