to have the Inside track for the
House OF Delegates. An effort
was made to induce Mr.. J. WI

to do so. The latest runner is TO
the effect, that a convention may
be called to nominate that gentle.

not be taken. At least this is the
belief of others.

Death Of James Maxwell.

We made mention in our last issue, of
the death of Mr.. James Maxwell, editor
of the Ottawa County Reporter. AS
MIR. Maxwell was well known in this
city we give short sketch of his life.
The deceased was born in Somerset,
Ohio, October IL, 1S42, and in 1874
came TO Fremont with his parents. He
attended school here, but not long
enough to prepare himself to enter col
lege. He then commenced work in the
JOURNAL Office under Mr.. Isaac NJ.
Keeler, and here developed those at
tainments which afterwards gave him a
reputation as keen critic, forcible wri-
ter and q careful printer. wkFr
In 1861 he enlisted as private soldier
in the 49th o. V. l., under Col. W. H.
Gibson, and served in the war three
years and five months His record in
the war shows him to have been brave
soldier, always ready to do what was re-
quired of him. While in the service he
contracted the heart disease, of which
he died. In 1866 he formed connec-
ton with Judge VIM. B. Sloan, in the
publication of the Ottawa County I'm
ion, and soon became associate editor.
In 1869 he left the Union and it soon
afterwards suspended.
For short time he was engaged on
the Sandusky Register, as local editor,
and about 1870 went to Cincinnati,
where he was engaged on the Daily
Commercial as proOf-reader, and after
wards as revise proof-reader, which po-
sition he held with satisfaction to his
employers.
In 1874 he was compelled to leave
morning newspaper work, on account Of
his health and went to Port Clinton
where he started the Reporter in July
last. His ability as a writer is well
known in this section.
Although not a professor of religion,
was a believer in the divinity Of Christ,
andat hisrequest was visited by minister
and while on his sick bed was admitted
to membership in the M. e. Church.
In 1870 he married Miss Mary Won
nell, daughter Of the late James Won
nell of Ottawa County. He was faith
full husband and kind father. His wife
and little daughter survive him and
have the sympathy Of his old friends in
their hour Of afiiction.

Fremont Artists h TolsSo.

It is oncs more our pleasing duty TO
refer to the Hattering success recently
attending Miss Ida L. Bush and Mr..
Fred. Dorr on making their appearance
in Toledo. On Monday evening last,
at Whitney & Curriers' piano parlors,
Miss Beach, of that city, gave concert
with her pupils, on which occasion Mrs.
Staylin, the prominent soprano vocalist
of Trinity Church, Miss Bush and Mr..
F. Dorr, Of this city, respectively took
part. There was not an available inch
of room, 80 large was the attendance of
the elite Of the city and its environs.
The programme was Of the highest Or
der, and the encores almost incessant
Miss Bush performed Litz's "Fantasia
Dramatique," a work of much brillian-
cy and requiring the most accomplished
artist to perform. In every respect
Miss B. maintained her high prestige,
perfectly enchanted her audience, and,
as usual, was greeted with a vociferous
encore, to which she kindly condesended
to respond. Nor was Miss Bush less
successful in the second part of the pro-
gramme, in which she exquisitely per-
formed the solos of Chopins' waltz in E,
and very fine polka by Wallace-each,
alike, being received with unbounded
applause.
MIR. T. DORIS cornet solo was, in
deed, a most enjoyable variety in the
programme, and was looked forward to
with intense interest. When we state
that he gave "The Blue Bells of Scot
land, with variations, most of our
readers who have heard his happy eff
forts amongst us on FORMER occasions
will readily conceive the hearty recep-
ton given him.
The audience knew no bounds to the
expression Of their delight and admira
tion-the softness of tone, perfect clear
ness of each note and perfect triple
5oning equally astonished as delighted,
and an enchore was responded to with
sven re-doubled success-many thor
'ughly competent judges according our
7oung artists such fiattering encomiums
IS might be received by the most emf
lent artist with exceptional qualification.
Mrs. Staylin, and Miss Floy Fuller
we're, of course, again highly successful,
'eing ever of the most accomplished
nd acceptable character.
Fremont has, indeed, cause for abun-
ant congratulation at the success ever
ttendant on her musical artists-their
quals are rarely met with--and the
verdict, both of the daily
nd weekly press cannot fail to be
qually gratifying to Miss Bush and Mr.. I
)orr, for whom we opine brilliant and
lccessful future in the musical world. :

Some OF tha GROWERS, astounded q,
tho activity Of the Treagury ID apartment,
snd chagrined at the suocess Of Che
movements made against the Internal
revenue and customs frauds by Secreta-
~ Bristow, are now disposed to assert
that lay has been violated, or that the
proceedings taken are 80 "high-handed"
as 70 threaten greater evils than those
they attempt TO remedy. The wealth
and influence of the whisky and snug
glet rings, East and West, will reiterate
this cry. 1t is good one for their pur-
poses. But it may be as well to consid-
er some facts personal TO Secretary Bris-
tow himself, before thoughtlessly run
ming to conclusion that he may have
done evil that good might come.
No lawyer in the United States has
probably more extended and thorough
knowledge of our revenue system, inter
nal and external, than Mr.. Bristow. We
refer distinctly to its working legal as
poets, and as TO the extent, &C., of the
powers of the Government under the
Constitution and laws. The reason for
this is very simple. Mr.. Bristow was
for several years District Attorney in
that portion of Kentucky which pro
duces annually the largest amount of
whisky. He was credited with being
the most successful law officer in CON
nection with revenue cases. When the
of Justice was to be organ
lied, Mr.. Bristow was made the first So
lioitor General. That functionary has
charge of all revenue laws and cases
arising under them, whether internal or
customs. The Attorney General is the
law adviser; the Solicitor General is the
prosecutor in all such cases. He pre-
pares and manages them. Mr.. Bristow
this office. 1t was probably
this fact, combined with his high char
lcter for integrity and frmness, which
induced the President to call him to the
Treasury. 1t is not probable that a
man so trained has in any essential par
ocular overstepped the plain letter of

The Rosa Piano.

Mr.. G. H. Rosa of 181 Summit street,
Toledo, still seems to be shipping
his magnificent piano, and also the
matchless chickering, almost every week
into our district. Our esteemed friend
Mr.. Tom Wood of Bellevue has just re-
ceived an instrument from Mr.. Rosa,
and we this week met the latter gentle
man going out to the splendid instru-
ment delivered in good shape. Mr.. Ro-
sA is daily receiving fresh instruments
and additional consignment of the latest
music published. His store was never
better stocked and those requiring a
first-class instrument will find none can
give them greater satisfaction. When
in Toledo, no lover of music should fail
to look in at 191 Summit street.

6rOWth of Fremont.

Never, in the past twelve years has
there been SO much building on foot
within Fremont corporation. On every
hand very nice houses are going up or
improvements to residences are in prog
ress. One person, in the space of five
minutes, the other day, counted up to us
no less than thirty houses to his knowl-
edge. Franklin street addition is also
rapidly becoming occupied, while we
hear that another addition is likely to be
surveyed the coming fall.

Shocking Accident.

0S Wednesday last, farmer named Mil
Ter, Of Ottawa county was in the city with a
load of lumber. Returning home, as he came
to the L. E. & L. R. r., crossing on the pike,
the cars frightened the team and they ran
away. The unfortunate man having only one
arm, lost control of the horses, was thrown
off and dragged some distance. We regret to
learn that the injuries he received are such as
to cause grave apprehensions as to his recov-
cry. He now lies on the East Side at the
boarding house OF Mrs. Hook, and is receiving
every attention. What is more distressing it
is only some three or four years since he had
his arm cut of with saw, and we under
stand that he is married and has large fam
ily.

bletonian stallion, Norwood, to Mr..
Joseph Willis, owner of stock farm at
Middletown, Orange county, N. Y.
Price not stated, but Ingraham had pre-
viously refused $4,000. Norwood is
full brother to Socrates.
California promises another wonder
full trotter. This time no "blood" is
claimed. The horse is described as SO
common bred horse, part mustang, q
fine dun gelding, 15 hands and / inch
high, Z years old, and of wonderful en-
durance. Common as he is, he has
made the uncommon time of 2:30 and
1924 in mile heats, and $685. and 5:17
the next day in two mile heats. His
owners very logically refused $4,000 for
him. II is quite likely that this horse
will get down into the twenties, when
there will be elaborate discussion wheth-
er he is not enriched with the ancient
blood of Cartez's thoroughbred char
gers.

examine it thoroughly. We invite the

and townspeople throughout this sec

themselves.
If after thorough investigation and
actual trial in the room by whoever will
come and test tit does not surpass
ever offered to the public; or,
should it fail in any point to do better
work than anything offered to the pub
lie for household economy and conven-
ience, we will cheerfully give heater to
the party testing it. We claim, IT WILL
HEAT FIVE TIMES THE SPACE EVENLY
WITH THE SAME FUEL THAT ANY OTHER
DEVICE WILL HEAT ONE FIFTH OF THE

saves labor, and its productions can not
be equalled. Thankful for the atten-

hope to benefit all and also be rewarded. |
