Conger's Constitutional Amendment
prohibiting the payment of Rebel
only four were Southern men,
and three of these were from border

were from the South. This looks as if

On the farm Of Mr. Woolfe,o on Short Creek,
Ohio county W Va, on June 8, the Superior
and walter A Wood went into trial on a
piece of half down clover, the Superior repre-
sented by Mr. Comfy and man from the fac
tory (boih experts), and the Wood by Mr.
Hoge. After both had failed to do the work
as the farmers present tlolght it should be
done, they expressed desire to see the
Buckeye operate, when Mr. bruner, farm
er in the same locality, brought over and took
into the field his New Buckeye which he
bought from Cover, Luke & Co, in 1876, and
which has done good service for two harvests
The result was complete victory for the
BUCKEYE, which was evident to all, as
the Buckeye, by going over the same ground
after the other machines mad gone over 1t,
took off more grass than was taken off by the
other two in passing over the first time Mr.
Wolfe, who had intended to purchase either
the Wood or Superior, ordered the agents OF
both to take their machines away, as they did
not do the work to suit him, and wanted to
hire MIR Burners Buckeye with which to I'm
ish his moving. MANY fARMKRs.

A few OF the more ferocions Demo-
Gratis are already declaring that the
next House will be fully justified in
breaking the pledge of the last session
about attacking the President, provid-
ed the revelations of the Summer seem
to warrant it. There cannot be too
much talk of this kind. for little of it
will show the people the danger which
will follow the election of q Demo-
cratic House this Fall. 1t is more and
more true each day that the only way
to head off any possible action of this
kind is to send a Republican majority
to Congress.

THE Democratic defaulting Treasurer

IT is stated that the expenses of the
Potter Committee and sub committees
already foot up nearly $50, 900, and the
sole result has been the discovery that
Anderson can swear to two directly
contradictory statements if he is paid
well for so doing. -

UNCLE DICK BISHOP has committed q
grave blunder in not appointing O'Con-
nor the distinguished colleague of
Ross. Alexander in the Legislature to
represent Ohio at the International
Prison Reform Congress at Stock holm.
Understanding prison reform practical
ly, and having rendered material
assistance to the present State govern
ment in reforming the Ohio prison, he
would fitly represent that government.
DIR. VIM. Bushnell of Mansfield, was
preferred to this Democratic benefaetor.
Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1878-06-27

THE net result of the Potter in
vestigation is that the country knows
that one Anderson exists, that he is
ed-headed, and that he has Shakes
pearian genius for lying. For this
valuable information the people are ex-
pected to pay something like the 10
significant little sum of $4,000.

SOME years ago, on the occasion OF
the adjournment Of the Legislature Of
Western State, the Chaplain Of the
House prayed in this wise: 80 God,
we thank thee that this Legislature
has adjourned and that its members
are going home. Return them in safe
ty to their homes and grant that such
q set OF men may never again come
here to disgrace the State" Such
prayer might, with some measure Of
propriety, have been offered OH the Oc-
casion on the adjournment of the Con-
gress whose members are now on their
way home. A more discreditable lot
of Legislators have not for long time
had place in our National Capitol, and
the only drawback to the rejoicing
over their. departure is the reflection
that the drunken and disOrderly crowd
will be back again in December

FOR BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS,
GEORGE PAUL, OF Summit.
Smyrna times., 1878-06-12

maintained silence, when such large appro-
priatiOns were made to the creeks, rivers,
and harbors of other States That was the
time to object to the unconstitutional APP
propriations, and not when ten thousand
dollars was asked for the improvement OF
the navigation Of Duck Creek of the little
State whose voters have urcn as true to his
family, as the needle is 10 the Pole. 1t IS
through this Senator influence that several
large appropriations have been made to
build magnificent Post Office in Dover
though he objected to an appropriation
being made that would benefit the property
holders, and enhance the commerce Of
Smyrna.
Oar Representatives, Mr. Williams, also
voted for the different appropriations made
to this unique Post Office, and turned the
cold shoulder to our petition and said bc
,0ouif not coic tor i for it was unconstitu-
| tional. If this be true it is stran2" that
Mr.. Bland, who triumphed over all the or-
position to his silver bill, and made it d
success should be so ignorant OF the Con
stitution, as to ask only a few days since fol
fifty millions of dollars for the improve
ment Of the Mississippi river.
o! consistency, thou art jewel rarely
met with in politicians
