purpose OF inspection, Ehc distilIers would re-
ceive ample notice from Mr.. Rehm, to enable
them to straighten up This information was
communicated to Jake by Alr. Bridges
Munn's subordinate; and in fact when
the Supervisor himself was to visit a
place, the fact was always communicated
beforehand to the distiller. There were, how
ever, special facts connected with the defend
ant. When Golsen & Eastman made mistake
III shipping some spirits to Pittsburg and the
authorities Mt Washington chilled attention to
the circumstance, Mum inspected the books Of
their establishment and found transparent
evidence OF fraud and took no official action In
regard thereto. In 1875 the defendant also
visited Roellc s. Junker's place, and found
fifteen to twenty empty barrels with uncanceled
stamps on. A thousand dollars on this oc-
caslon pacifed Munn's official temper. This
money wasapaid direct to Mum, who requested
Rchm not to mention the fact to Bridges.
Messrs. Wadsworth and Hoyt also divided
money Tor similar services. 1t was unnecessary
for the defense to say that these men were equal
ly guilty. That was perfectly true, aud their
cases would be treated 1T another time. The
Court had waited Until this time in order to as
certain the full facts, that it might apportion
punishment to the parties according to their
deserts. The question for the jury to consider
ut present was whether the defendant was guilty
OF the charges preferred against him. To
large exteut the evidence would come from per
sous who had been engaged in the whisky
frauds. They were, however, competent Wit
nesses, aud the jury could determine, after
hearing their testimony, what degree Of Grcduli-
ty could justly be attached to it.

Influence of the ress.

On the intelligent and loyal press
Of the country the hopes Of the nation
depend. The people look to the press
for correct information, and on this
they base their judgment Of govern
mental affairs. A bad paper conveys
moral poison wherever it circulates.
If it Is edited with commanding abil-
ity, its power for evil is greatly in
creased, and this is still further en-
larged in proportion to its circulation.
How vital. then. in view OF this, be-
comes the necessity of supporting
good papers. Every citizen who be-
lieves in public and private morality
should extend liberal support to his
home paper. His first duty should he
to strengthen that. If he has patro-
mage, it should go to the local organ
before dollar is set to paper at a
distance. The principle of home
protection should be applied to the
local papers of the country.-JVdSh-

CLOSING OF TYNER CITY SCHOOL.
We had the pleasure OF being pres
ent at the closing OF the winter term
OF the Tyner City Schools, Friday.
March 18th. Notwithstanding the in
clemency of the weather, there was
a general turn out OF pupils and yisi
tors. The forenoon was designed.
according to the programme. for the
regular exercises and recitation OF the
classes, which was done with credit
to both pupils and teachers. The
programme for afternoon exercises
was somewhat different The first
in order was an invitation to dinner,
which had been prepared by the fair
ladies of Tyner City. Mr.. Pitchers
school room during the Lour of no IN
had been converted into adining hall,
and there the hands OF the fair maiden
and matrons OF the city, had prepared
"a feast king might envy The tables
were loaded with the good things OF
earth. We will not attempt to enum-
crate what those tables contained,
suffice it to say. that pupils, teachers
and visitors, all appeared to be deep
ly interested in coming their lessons,
in short, every one observed the
eleventh commandment strictly. AT
ter the repast. came the various ex-
ercises upon the programme, which
consisted in select reading. declama-
tions. compositions and spelling. The
pupils who participated in the exer
cises acquitted themselves creditably,
in fact done remarkably well. In
conclusion We wOnld say, that our
visit to Tyner City schools will long
be remembered rs pleasant land
mark. and as an oasis in the desert Of
a teachers life.
