your ignorance of the business. When
you were a candidate for the position
you now occupy, several Republicans re-
fused to vote for you, and you ran 81 be-
hind Hayes in the county. In Bloom
field township seventeen Republicans
signed paper, pledging themselves not
to vote for you, because, they claimed,
you had charged the taxpayers Of the
county seventy-five dollars, l think it

ing a dead body, at Coroner's inquest

sonally, but l could not convince them
that it was right for you to charge SIS
for one hours work, when they would
be glad to get one dollar for cutting up
hogs a whole day. These simple-heart-
ed, honest farmers, were like yourself;
they only made themselves ridiculous
when they attempted TO meddle with a
matter about which they were utterly ig
norant.
Let me say in conclusion, that this lit

former personal and political friendship

A Sad Fact.

While physical perfection and beauty
is desired. and is a duty which should
not be ignored, yet how snd Is the fact
that in the United States more than
100000 cripples and deformed persons
exist, while many thousands more are
becoming SO. Every parent is solcitous
about the mental culture of children,
but ignores, seemingly, physical develop
ment. Deformity is too often neglected,
or only treated by the family physician,
who has not the facilities, and to finally
end in a sad lasting deformity is the re-
suit. Sending off for mechanical appli-
ance5 or neglect is vandalism. When we
stop to think of the wonderful, intricate,
and complicated mechanical structure Of
the body, can we doubt for q moment the
necessity for an institution for its re-
pairs, where supports, appliances, and
apparatus can be constructed and applied
TO meet the ever-varying necessities
For this purpose the National Surgical
Institute, with its four great divisions
was founded, viz: at Philadelphia, Indi-
annapolis, San Francisco, and Atlanta Ga
In the last twenty years it has cured
over forty thousand diseased and de-
formed people. 1t has expended over
100000 in manufacturing and perfecting
appliances for this purpose. ltexhibited
at the Centennial more than five times
as many appliances, and better ones, than
all the nations Of the earth combined,
and received not only the highest medal
and diploma, but the greatest praise
from the Surgeon Generals and Commits
sioners of other nations. Every one who
saw the exhibit was glad to own Ameri-
cas- triumph in the cause OF humanity in
these great means OF relief
We have learned that two or more of
the surgeons of the National Surgical
Institute expect to visit our town. They
will be at the Gibson House, Jackson,
Ohio. May Ilth and 18th, 1877, where
they will have full supply of all kinds
OF supports, instruments, and other rem
edies for the cure of all deformities, par
alysis, piles, fistula, diseased joints, fe-
male diseases, private diseases, etc, etc.
We advise all needing such treatment to
call and see them, as it will cost nothing
for examination, and all will be told can
didly what can be done for them.

rREMARKs by TIE EDITOR. ]

You are mistaken when you say that
you wrote me the facts about pay, on the
7th Of April. You did not write that
there was no law providing for payment,
and that / must take the risk of getting
pay, or that you would endeavor to cut
down the pay one-half from legal rates.
but you said: "You lOiH be paid 50 cents
per square," &c.
You undertake to fix the amount that
ought to be paid. You are not compe-
tent to do that, because you know moth
ing about the business Your principal
argument is, that you have figured up
the gross amount in the State, and it is
enormous. So it is. But who is respon-
sible2 Not the papers. They did not
ask the Legislature to propose any
amendments. They only urged an early
adjournment, to prevent so much useless
and pernicious legislation, and to save
these enormous expenses.
Let US apply your argument on the
other side of this OK and bull matter.
Members of the Legislature receive five
dollars per day and a large amount of
constructive mileage. Applying your ar
gument, find that this aggregates an
immense sum. At your first session it
amounted to S97, 7,o75 81 1t will be much
more at the present session. 1t will be
much below the amount Of the per diem
and mileage of members of this Legisla-
ture to fx it at 100000. According TO
your argument, this should be cut down
one-half, and you should be paid only
81 so per day, and thus you could save
the State, or the taxpayers thereof, one
hundred thousand dollars. This would
be a much bigger feather in your cap
than the beggarly $4,000 to $4,000 wrung
from the poor devils who are struggling
to keep their newspapers out of the
hands Of the Sheriff (Of course do
not refer to my own paper in that last
remark
You can not understand why publish
ers of papers charge at the rate Of three
or four hundred dollars a column per
year for legal advertisements, and only
one hundred dollars for column, when
\ merchont wants a displayed column,
Tor a year. That arises iIom !

The Great Show.

John Robinson's show is coming again.
See his great three column advertise
ment in the Standard this week
Robinson's show was here in the sum
mer of 1874, and again 1875, and gave en-
tire satisfaction. There is no bumbug
about this show. 1t" is all it advertises
to be. Mr.. Joseph. the agent, told US
that there would positively be a carriage
drawn through the streets by four ele-
plants in harness. He also says that two
elephants WILL wax up on timber bal
anced on a pivot, and teter. like two
boys on a board through fence
We can not specify the numerous en-
tertaining and instructive sights TO be
seen at this great show.
1t is consoling for a moral man. like
the editor Of the Standard, to be able to
say that the circus department OF this
great show is advertised as a strictly
moral circus That will let US all in

sentatives, $74 25, and on the next day,
April II, 1876, Allen & Riddell were paid
for ice for Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives. $50 90. Here is $l54 25 paid
for ice. in April, for l35 men. Does any
man believe that the smallest part OF
this money was paid for ice 1t was
more likely paid for brandy, and whisky,
and oysters, and-perhaps something a
good deal worse
When these abuses are mentioned,
Hon. Members try to laugh the matter
of. as ridiculous; but when we remem.
Der that all this comes directly of the
taxpayers OF the State, the people have
right to think about the matter. We
have seen honest farmers terribly worri
ed to raise money to pay their taxes, and
when they come to town for that pur
pose they do not feel able to pay for
their dinner. but bring it in their pocket
Many see their lands advertised in the
delinquent list, unable to help them
selves

half a page to Wendell Phillips Philadelphia
speech, and to his Herald interview. The Stan
dard has only four pages. and is only published
once a week. II must think Republicans up in
the iron region nightly Interested in the
harangue.-lCincinnatiT Times.
The Standard is a newspaper. We had
seen lengthy able (2) editorials in nearly
all the great (2) city dAilies. attacking
Wendell Phillips "harangue, but we
failed for many days to see the harangue
which they were attacking. We sought
for it in the daily Times, Gazette and
Commercial of Cincinnati, and in the
daily N. Y. Tribune. but we sought in
vain. At last we found it in the N. Y.
Sun. We did not know but some might
desire to see it. and we were not TOO eow-
ardly to publish it, although we supposed
a majority of our readers would differ
with Mr.. Phillips.

Mr.. Beadle, the Columbus correspon-
dent Of the Cincinnati Gazette. in speak
ing of the proceedings in the House Of
Representatives on last Saturday. says !:
The House of Representatives played high
comedy all day yesterday, and ended just
where II begun. II this is a specimen Of the
way business is TO be crushed" IL is idle TO set
an early day for adjournment
A dispatch in the Cincinnati Times,
about the proceedings on Monday, says ::
The Senate did no business, this morning, on
account of absentees.
Speaking Of the House, the dispatch
says:
The fact that a dozen members were in the
city, but preferred sauntering about to attend
ing to public business stirred up considerable
feeling among members who were seeking to
dispatch business A motion to arrest all alb
sent members and cause them to show cause of
absence, was carried by vote Of 81 to 10, but as
there was no quorum the House took recess.
These antics will be kept up all this
week by these wise and learned states
men, at a cost TO the tax payers Of over
one thousand dollars for each day.
