Dayton journal: 1t appears that Hon.
Charles Foster lives in town which strad-
dies county line, and is, therefore, in two
Congressionals District, one Democratic the
other Republican, the Toledo District
Unfortunately, however, Mr.. Foster lives
in the Democratic District. But it il
stated that Gen. j. D. Cox, of Toledo, has
generously proposed that il Mr. Foster will
move across the town into the Toledo Dis
trict he will retire from the contest, and
give Mr.. Foster free race. This is all
well enough but however much we like
Mr.. Foster we wouldn't like to lose the
services of Gen. Cox, who is a very able,
highly cultured, efficient man, who will
grow larger every year lie is in Congress.
We by no means diaparage Mr.. Foster in
saying that we wouldn't like to make the
swap.

Friday morning Judge Hitchcock he'll that the defendant got possession of the plaintiffs money, not i'll pursuance of lis duty as an officer, but with the intention of bringing it within reach of an attachment on civil process.
