sioner elect Burns the second clerkship in his

gratifes US to know that so accommodating

DAVID BEowN, ESQ.,, one of our most OBJ:
servant and prosperous farmer friends, has
been for some years the reporter for the Ag-
ricultural Bureau at Washington. His last
report was to the effect that ''the wheat crop
exceeded that of 1876 by % per cent in quan
tjty and 10 per cent in quality; that the corn
crop is only an average crop; that oats are 20
per cent above an average as to quantity and
10 per cent as to quality; that hay is 25 per
cent above the average of the three years pre-
ceding last year, and five per cent above last
year, and that the potato yield is 80 per cent
greater than last year.

In 1875 three more votes were polled in this
county in the Gubernatorial election than wa.
polled this year. Allen received that year
45SS votes. Tanning, the Democratic candi-
date for Clerk of the Supreme Court, and
who probably received nearer the party Dem.
ocratic vote than any other candidate, received
this yCar 4575 votes-thirteen votes less than
Allen received in 1875. The same year the
Republican vote for Hayes was 1914. this
year Crowell, for clerk Sdpreme court, re:
ceived 4110 votes.
This state of facts shows that the Democrats
did not increase their vote, and that on the
same basis over 400 Republicans of the county
failed to cast their ballots. This will, to 9
large extent, explain why the Republican
party was beaten in this county this Fall.

RAGUeL Troll came near meeting with a
serious accident on Tuesday last. He was
firing his breech loading shot gun and one
barrel bursted. Some thought, perhaps it
was flaw in the barrel, and others that it
was occasioned by an over attempt to strain
the game laws of the State of Ohio. At any
rate it is ''busted up" gun and no one ma
terially injured.
