RUSSELL & SCHROEDER.

We notice that great stress is laid, by
certain partisans, on the argument against
third term of Office. We think such a
plea rather weak and aimsy, especially in
local affairs where every voter has an OPP
portunity OF knowing the men he supports
for office. Many voters reason like this {:
owe really don't owe any man in the coun-
;y an Office, but we consider it our right
and privilege to look out for our own and
the general interest we do not support Il
candidate on account OF his services to any
party, but for his general fitness and quail
tication. We shall therefore select and
support, among the different candidates in
the field, such men as we deem the most
efficient and trustworthy for the position
in question, and this we shall do irrespec-
tive OF party or any consideration of the
tro term theory" Mr. Russell is we'll
spoken of here by both Democrats and
| Republicans. His abilities us County
Treasurer are beyond question. We are
not ready, therefore, in spite of party die
tation, to exchange him (Russell) for such
an unknown quantity as-Schroeder.

rnr "CAprUHkn OF MArrlMoRE.

Becoming tired Of dodglng the vigilance
Of the officers, MArt1MoRE, who escaped
from Jail one week ago Friday night, con-
cluded to seek the aid of his father, give
himself up and endeavor to get bail for
his appearance at the next term Of Court
With this object in view young MArT1-
MORE and his father came TO Perrysburg
early Tuesday morning. They drove mp
in carriage to the residence OF MrTYLER,
MArTrMoRE's attorney, and from there
they proceeded to Mr.. TYLERs Office.
Soon after this q buggy was sent for Mr.
JAMES HAYES to come down and accom-
pany them to Bowling Green. This, we
are surprised to see, is construed by the
Granger as Capture" of MATTIMoRE
by JAS. HAYES, candidate for Sheriff on
the Democratic ticket. These are the
facts as we get them from those who were
watching the manouvering. Word has
also reached here from Bowling Green
that MArTIMoRE was surprised and in
dignant 10 think the Democrats would
attempt to make capital out OF his sur
render.
In view Of these facts we nre sorry to see
the Granger use its columns, or allow them
TO be used against As worthy man as
Sheriff HENRY. When the true facts are
obtained about the two Jail freaks during
Sheriff HENRY's administration, we don't
believe any one will lay any blame to

Liver Is king

The Liver Is the imperial organ Of the whole
human system, as it controls the life, health
and happiness of man. When 1t is disturbed
IN its proper action, all kinds of ailments are
the natural result. The digestion of food, the
movements Of the heart and blood, the action
of the b rain and nervous system, nre all i'm
mediately connected with the workings Of the

Awake Over In Lucas.--The Republi-
cans OF Lucas county have awakened to
the importance of the campaign. Messrs.
L. X. PARKS and J. X. HAMILTON adj
dressed the people of South Toledo, last
evening. Mr.. AID. COFFIN came over for
the Arion Band, and on their return they
reported that it was decidedly the best
meeting they had attended this year. The
hall was crowded, and Mr.. PARKS, the first
speaker, captivated his audience who ap-
plauded to the echo. The Arions say the
speech of Mr.. PARKS was the finest and
most convincing they had heard during
the campaign.

Burglary. - About half-past one, on
Wednesday morning, an attempt was made
to blow open tho safe in the office of the
West Toledo pillow works, but the burglars
were frustrated in their designs by son Of
one OF the members OF the firm who re-
turned at that hour from collecting tour.
He saw light in the office and heard an
explosion, after which he awakened a
neighbor and proceeded to investigate.
He discovered n man on guard outside and
fred at him. The compliment was re-
turned and the burglar ran. Those inside
put out the light and run in different di-
rection. They were pursued and several
shots exchanged, but none took effect 80
far as known. The knobs were broken
from the safe and one charge of powder
exploded, but no further damage.

THE MANAGEMENT OF HORSES.

They should be fed 10 proportion to
their work. An idle team may be win
tered upon good hay alone; when work
ing lightly feed Of grain at noon will
be sufficient, with, hay morning and
night. With heavy work, ten quarts
of ground corn and oats, and chaffed
straw or cornfodder, will be good feed
ing, ana in many cases, FOR small
horses, less will do. Good grooming is
necessary for health i'm the winter.
Ground gypsum spread upon the floors
will prevent the pungent odor common
to stables. This vapor of ammonia IL

quet cause o. ophtbalmia, and re-
sulting in blindness, with which so
many horses are troubled. Throw a
few pailsful of water upon the floor
first, and then scatter around shovel
full of the gypsum. Fresh air should
enter the stables at the bottom and the
foul air escape at the top. Make small
sliding doors for ventilation, and cover
them with wire netting or lsshs, to
exclude vermin.-Agriculturist.

The Electrical Discoveries.

When the applicability of gas. as an
Illuminating agent was discovered, it
was called the new light" Time.
and the progress of science has sup
piled a more efficient, and less expen
sive substitute. and in brief space of
time, lighting by gas will be thing of
the past. There is no mistake but that
the directors of gas companies should
look this squarely in the face, for as
surely as steam has Superseded sailing
vessels, so will the electric light super
cede gas. Mr.. Edison says: 1--WE
could lay the wires right through the
gas pipes, and bring them into the
houses. All that will be necessary will
be to remove the burners and subsii
tute electric burners. The light can
be regulated by a screw, tb, same as
gas You may have bright light or
not, as you wish. You can turn it
down or up, just rs you please, and
can shut it off at any time. No omatch
is needed to light it. You turn the
cock, the electric connection is made,
the platinum burner catches a proper
degree of heat, and there is your light.
There is neither blszs or fame. There
is no singing or fiickering."
Compositor-, engravers and others,
who have to work during summer
nights, can do SO comfortably, for it
does not throw out any heat. Shades
may be used the same as upon gas
lights.
The wind can't blow it out. There
can be no gas explosions, and no one
will be suffocated because the electric
icty is turned on without lighting the
burner. A person may have lamps
made with flexible cords, and carry
them from one point to another. Add
to the above the great saving over gas.
and it requires no prophetic vision to
understand that the days of the latter
are numbered.

Oh. yes, we're prospering finely; we've pulled

It's finished OF rs stylish as any church you'l

But when we'd got it done, the old parson had
togo;
He was gettin' pretty old. and some thought,
rather slow:
So they called q smart young parson; then they
broke up the old choir.
And got some first class singers-the best that
they could hire.
They call this an Improvement. and don't say
but they're right,
But this new-fangled singin' does bother me
sight!
One starts out with flourish. then another she
strikes in,
And soon amongst them all they raise reg lar
din.
I've always listened sharp, but don't know
what they sung;
n there's any words at all. it's in an unknown
tongue.
Perhaps it's Just as weilif we don't know what
is about; ~
OF course they're praisin' the Lord-of that
hain't doubt.

And when the parsons preachin', I only hear
the sound,
For upamong the rafters the words seem wan
derin' round.
The young folks say bis voice ID uncommon
loud and clear,
And Tn sure It amt bis fault that I'm gettin'
slow TO hear.
The old stocks mostly gone and I'm pretty
much alone.
And guess they'll all be glad when the last
oldfogy's gone.
All, well, I s'pose it's time the young folks had
their way:
And won't quarrel with 'ern. for Ihain't long
