What Your County Paper
n0RS

An exchange combats with con-
siderable vigor the argument that
the city papers are cheaper and bet
ter than county papers, because they
give more columns of reading for
the money. Do the city papers, it
asks, ever give you any home news ?
Never. Do they say anything in re-
gard to your own county, Nothing.
Do they contain notices of your
churches, schools, colleges, improve
ments, and hundreds of other local
matters of interest which your local
paper publishes without pay? Do
they say word calculated to draw
attention to your county and its nu-
merous thriving towns, and aid in
their progress and enter prise? Not
a word. And yet there are men who
take such contracted views of this
matter that unless they are getting
as many square inches of reading
matter in their own paper as they do
in city paper they think they are
not getting the worth of their money.

The HWant" Box,

An excellent custom adopted by
many Oranges is to have 'want"
box in which members can drop any
advertisement or intelligence they
desire circulated. A small open box
is all that is necessary, placed upon
the Lecturers desk. The "wants, u
etc, can be dropped in it before the
Granger takes his seat, and at
the proper time the Lecturer reads
them before his Grange. The ad-
vantages of this plan are apparent.
If any brother has anything to sell
or exchange, or if there is anything
he desires to purchase, he can adver-
tise it quite extensively by this
method. So, too, the sisters can ad
vertise for help, etc. 1t is also sug-
gested that the contents of the
''want" boxes of neighboring Gran
ges can be exchanged to evident ad-
vantage, as the intelligence is thus
more widely circulated.

Scioto Valley r. r. to be
Extended to Portsmouth
At Once.

The Columbus Journal of last
Saturday gives the following impor-
tant intelligence in regard to the ear
ly extension of this road from Chilli
cothe to Portsmouth. 1t seems that
Mr.. Geo. D. Chapman, under whose
able management the road was built
from Columbus to Chillicothe, is
again in the field, and proposes to
complete the enterprise by finishing
the road to the Ohio river. The
Journal says:
A railroad meeting was held at
Portsmouth the first of the week, at
which it was proposed to extend the
payment of subscriptions ninety
days, which was agreed to. Mr..
Chapman was present and promised
to commence work on the road with
in thirty days, on the above condi-
tions. The meeting appointed com
mittees to canvass the city for sub
scriptions. Mr.. Chapman says, up
on examination. he finds that the
road can be run into Portsmouth on
the shortest practical route, avoiding
entirely the contingencies of high
water from the overflow of the Scio-
to, by building only, for the present,
thirty-six miles of track. He propo-
ses to use the track of the Marietta
& Cincinnati railroad between Chilli
cothe and Schooley Station, thus saw
ing heavy outlay temporarily. He
reports that he has already purchas-
ed a portion of the material for the
road; has secured all the right of
way with few exceptions will con-
tract for the iron next week, and will
be ready to let the grading by the
first of April. With proper amount
of financial energy on tue part of the
Portsmouthites the road ''they have
SO long sought, but ne'er have
found" will soon be under way.

S. j, g. p. Railroad,

The WaverIy Republican, March
1, says:
president Emmitt informs us thai
five miles of iron are now laid this
side of Jackson, and he made such
q favorable rate for the balance re-
quired to finish the route between
here and Jackson that $4,000 will be
saved beyond what it would have
cost last autumn. He also says that
the work will go forward with
increased activity and the cars will
be running between here and Jack
son early in April.
''The bridge at this place is compile
ted, and in less than six weeks our
town will be blessed by the practical
evidence that hereafter we can get
out and develop the resources of this
productive region
"Rucker & Son are pushing the
work toward Bainbridge to the west
of the town, and from Springfield to
Washington G. H. and from Green
field to Bainbridge the road bed is
finished, ready for ties, making in all
IS miles upon which the track will
soon be laid"

Plant Early Potatoes only.

| Professor McAfee, OF the lows
Agricultural College, advises the plan
ting of early varieties off potat oes
only, in order to cut of the supply Of
food for the potatoes to beetles late
in summer. There are, at least, two
broods of this insect in a season, and
in some favorable localities three.
Now if none but the earliest varie-
ties of potatoes are planted, the tops
will be ripe by the time the first
brood of beetles have come to matu-
rity. The second brood, not finding
its favorite food in abundance, q
large portion must parish, for from
the lst of August until the following
spring is rather to long time for
the mature insect to live, especially
if short of food. It is generally the
second or last brood of the season
which hybernates, passing through
the winter in safety; but, by cutting
off the supply of food, we may at
least lessen the number which are
to psss over to the following season.
1t is worth trying.

The letters from Wooster, Ohio,
which we publish this week, will be
found of great interest to Temper
ance people. 1t seems that the
"Gospel Temperance Movement" has
reached there, and is'working won
derful reformation among the poor
inebriates and moderate drinkers
of that town. The new movement
is apparently a legitimate outgrowth
of the Women's Crusade, having the
same religious spirit as its distinct
i've feature, though operating by diff
ferent methods.

DEATH OF JOHN B. GAMBLE.-Mr.
John B. Gamble, formerly of this
place, died in Noblesville, Ind, on the
18th of last month, of inhammatory
rheumatism. He had been sick about
IL days, and until a few hours
before his death seemed to be better,
when he suddenly complained of a
severe pain in his right breast. His
physician administered hypodermic
injection of quarter of grain OF
morphia, which seemed to relieve the
pain, and he sank into sleep. Soon
afterwards his breathing became diff
fcult, his heart beat violently and
he relapsed into state of stupor,
from which it was found impossible
to rouse him, and he died few
hours after the morphia was admin
istered. A coroner's inquest was
held, and rendered verdict that his
death was caused by the effects OF
morphia, administered by DR.. W. B
Graham, without criminal intent, and
that the dose administered would
not have proved fatal under ordinary
circumstances.
Mr.. Gamble was about 40 years of
age, and had resided in Noblesville
for several years, being a teacher in
the High School, at the time he was
taken sick. He was highly esteemed
in the community, as citizen and a
teacher, and his untimely death is
sincerely lamented. He leaves a wife
and four children, to mourn the loss
of a kind husband and father. Mrs.
Gamble is the daughter of Mr..
Samuel Lyle, sen, of this township.
Mr.. Gamble served in the S9th o.
V. I. during the rebellion, as a Lieu
tenant in Capt. Ad. Glenn's COM
pany.

! the Death Of Maggie, I',fdnt Daughter of Sam,i
and Emma Coleman.
Golden threads of sunlight,
Peering through tie gloom;
Chasing the murky shadows,
Through the darkening room,
Failing to reach our hearts;
For we know, by the gssping breath,
Our darling Is cen now held
In the shadowy arms of Death.
Watching, in anguish of spirit,
For the sunlight is leaving our home;
Our baby-our only, Oh, Father,
Why dost Thou bid her come?
See! They fold the tiny hands,
Lay back the weary head;
Press the sweet lips, grown cold,
And we know that she is deadi
As our hearts, In bitter sorrow,
Bow, to kiss the rod,
Our Father whispers, "Peace, be still,
And know that I am God ~
Yes, we know that He Is King;
= And none can stay His hand;
We know His will Is Love,
And Death is not the end.
A little, white-robed angel,
Amid the glorious throng,
Who cast their crowns before Him,
And sing glorious song.
For Jesus took them In his arms,
And to that Heavenly home,
"Said, ''Suffer the little children,
And forbid them not, to come"

Fl. V. Redield, Southern CORE
spondent of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial, is thoroughly acquainted with
Louisiana politics. He was in New
Orleans during the session of the re-
turning board, and became perfectly
familiar with the details of its pro.
ceedings and action. He is by no
means favorably disposed to the Re-
publican State government in that
State, yet he says:
Louisiana was carried by Tilden
by wholesale murder, violence, in
timidation and bull-dozing, on the
Mississippi plan,' in five parishes.
The net Democratic gain in these
five parishes is more than the ma
jority which Tilden has on the face
of the returns. Had there
been no returning boardin Louisiana,
the State would have been declared
for Tilden, and we would have had the
singular spectacle of President
elected by murder! You can make
nothing else out of it. Murder and
intimidation carried the five bull
dozed parishes of Louisiana, and the
net Democratic gain in those par
ishes gave the State to Tilden on the
face of the returns"
The truth in a nutshell is that the
Democratic majority in Louisiana
was the result of force and violence,
and the action of the returning board
was simply an attempt to correct the
outrage and restore the right.

The New York Tribune pays Gen
Grant compliment-somewhat un.
expected from it-upon his retiring
from the Presidenry. 1t says: "He
passes from the stage amid the uni.
versal applause. Kindly and admir-
ing looks follow him to retirement
The popular heart, always substanti-
ally true to him, warns with appre
citation of a character strongly mark,
ed by traits of greatness, and dis
figured only by faults history is GER
tain to obliterate.
In private life we believe he will be
regarded with universal kindness
and good will, and history, viewing
his deeds with the mellow light ot
distance, will give him not merely
the praise of a great commander but
the higher title of a patriot"

The New Administrat ton.

The policy declared by President Hayes
in his inaugural, and his tender of the olive
branch to the South by appointing South
ern man to place in bis Cabinet, have re-
ceived an enthusiastic and almost unani-
nous response from the people of all par
ties and all sections of the Uuion. The
little furry of excitement caused by Sena-
tor Blaine's indiscreet remarks in regard to
the admission of Kellogg as Senator from
Louisiana, and his premature denunciation
of policy which he only suspected to be
intended by the new administration toward
Cows Packard and Chamberlain, has sub
sided, the new cabinet has been confirmed
without opposition, and has entered upon
its duties, and the new administration is
at length fairly launched, and starts out
with favoring gales, and attended with the
prayers and best wishes of the great mass
of the people, for its success.
On our second page we copy an article
from the indianapolis Journal, on the new
administration, which we commend to the
attention of every Republican, as sound in
sentiment and doctrine. Read it carefully.
1t will repay thoughtful perusal.

The Cincinnati Price Current OF
March 1st, with the announcement
of the close of the winter packing
season, gives estimates of the num-
Der of hogs packed throughout the
country. The number packed in
Cincinnati, Chicago, st. Louis, Louis
vile, Milwaukee and Indianapolis is
3,226,OOO, against 3,213,622 last
season, and the total number for the
season, will approximate closely to
100000 head-or about the same
number as last season. The average
weight this season is about 5 pounds
below the average of last year, which
is equal to a shrinkage of about 85,-
900 hogs, and the yield in lard will
fall very much below the product of
last year.

DRA1Ns-There is no better time
than the present to dig drains. The
January thaw, which was very gen
eral, has filled the low ground with
water, and flowing water is the best
possible leveling instrument. The
narrower the drain is made, so that
q man can work easilyin it, the cheap
er the work may be done. When
water is flowing in the drain, lay the
tile from the head downwards.
There is no danger then of obstruc-
tions entering them.
The cost of Draining can hardly
ever be less than it now is. Labor
is very low, and those who have i'm
provements to make, and have the
money, or see their way clearly to
repay it, if borrowed, could have no
better opportunity than at present.

Thursday March l5 1877 "

ment, 1 write to tell you what is
being done in this city for the refor-
nation of the inebriate.
About week ago Messrs McCur-
dy and Ward, ministers of this place,
secured the aid of two gentlemen OF
Pittsburg, Messrs. Clancy and
Smithson-both reformed inebri-
ates-and commenced holding what
they term Gospel Temperance
Meetings" in the Opera House, the
results of which at the present writ
ing are, one thousand persons have
signed the pledge, and the interest
in the movement is intense-hun-
dreds being unable to get seats in
the building at each meeting.
Last night, Notwithstanding the
rain and mud, the building was
crowded to its utmost capacity.
Members of the various choirs, and
many other singers, occupy the
stage, and enliven the meetings with
songs from the collections of Bliss
and Sankey.
The speeches of Messrs. Clancy
and Smithson are practical and
pointed. No onslaught is made upon
the saloon-keeper, but earnest ap-
peals are made to the mind and
heart of the drinker, and most sue
cessfully.
Everybody indorses the movement,
as most practical and sensible.
Very many of the moderate, as
well as inanaoderate drinkers, have
signed the pledge, and the work
goes bravely on, and the end is not |
yet.
One saloon keeper has signifed |
his intention of refusing to sell liquor
to any one who has taken the pledge |
Cheer after cheer went up from
the audience last night, as one after
another of the unfortunate victims
of intemperance pushed forward to
the stand and signed the cards,
which contained the pledge-each
one taking his card with him.
Great hopes are expressed that
this reform movement will do great
good, and result in the permanent
salvation of many drunkards, other
wise good and honorable citizens.
There are forty saloons in this city
Of six thousand inhabitants, and it
is estimated that four hundred dol
lars are spent every day for liquors
at their bars. Yours,
T. RAVELING.
