WILL SOME ONE ExPLAINI

Ed. JoURNAJ:--Your correspondents,
Lake" and "Gridiruu,n in last weeks is-
sue, did not in the least exagernte the mat
ter in regard to burdensome taxes, &c. II
is the general feeling in this part Of the
county. They Nlso point out remedy
which has been long talked of here, viz
For the people to unite and petition our
Legislature to repeal all injurious tax laws.
This doubtless would he striking at the
very root Of the evil so much complained
Of; although the proposed remedy would
not redress wrongs already done, or about
to be done, it would do away with their
cause in the future. 1t is true people can
resort to our courts for the redress of many
grievances but litigation is generally ex-
pensive and tedious and the results doubt
ful. Most people avoid this course through
fear. In addition to their heavy assess-
ments for bitches, &C., they will have to
pay costs of court, attorneys fees, &c.
They are well aware that those against
whom they contend Use the public money
and find it comparatively an easy matter
to carry on suits against the complaining
parties. There is hardly any doubt that
those in authority take advantage of this
timidity and hesitation on the part of the
people and at last became so bold and rech-
less in their way of managing things that
some men are driven to resistance through
sheer desperation, when-in addition to
heavy assessments for bitches which are
no benefit to the parties assessed-they are
subjected to great damages besides, then
submission becomes imbecility and patience
ceases to be virtue
And yet certain Inconsistent and unrea-
Sonable men have the effrontery to advise
complaining parties to endure such outra-
ges and those who cannot and will not sub
nit to them are denounced rs "enemies to
the best interests of the people. What
people we ash? Some of the very men
whose names appear on petitions for bitches,
never signed said petitions and arc strongly
opposed to said pretended improvements.
This is the case with at least one whose
name appears on the petition for Ditch No
264-J. J. B., German farmer, (of Web
ster Twp L think. He says very positively
that lie never signed that petition or au-
thorized anyone else to sign it for him, and
furthermore that he has been opposed to
said ditch from the beginning lie has
left his address, written in German and re-
quested me to compare it with signature
on original petition.
II Mr.. B's statements are correct the
question arises-for whose benefit then are
these pretended improvements made, or at
whose instigation are they petioned for.
Will some one explain? II. HIS.

THE WAYS THAT ARE DARK.

ED. JOURNAL As the County Commits
sioners and other of our county official,
have given their version of the manner in
which the affairs of the county are man
aged, (through the medium OF an inter-
viewer) perhaps they will enllghten some
of the taxpayers as to the disposition made
of money received as taxes for certain i'm
provements.
We will take County Road No. Is as an
example. The amount assessed for this
improvement we are told, was far in excess
of all necessary expenses, there being a sur
plus OF over S400. Some Of the tax payers
on said road No. Is requested that their
proportion of the above surplus be refunded
to them but were told that 1t would be
turned over to the Trustees Of the respec-
tive townships through which the Road ex-
tended to be expended in keeping said
County Road No. Is in proper repair.
Last year after the Spring election one
of the Trustees of Lake Township went to
Bowling Green and demanded the proper
tions of said surplus belonging to his town
ship to be expended as above proposed and
was told that there we're no funds in the
County Treasury for that purpose that the
money had been expended for other pur-
poses.
Now what the tax payers wish to know
is by what authority of law did the Com
missioners use the said money and expend
it for other purposes.
We think that if it was not expended on
said Improvement it should have been re.
funded to the persons who originally paid
it into the County Treasury as taxes. But
possibly our ideas of law and justice are
not such as are entertained and practiced
by our county officials.
This is but one OF u number of similar
transactions which have been brought to
our attention through responsible and
trustworthy sources. TAX PAYER
On Road No. Is.

"At HOme."-We called on Mr.. A. w.
LEE, on business few evenings since, and
found him very much at home in his fine
new brick residence, which he succeeded
in completing, except porches, in the early
part of the winter. 1t is one of the most
complete and substantial, in every detail
as to furnace, ventilation, sewerage and
general convenience and comfort, of any
of the residences in this section. The work
was all done under the direction and super
vision of Mr.. LEE, and many are the meu
who got the "grau6 bounce" on the first
evidence Of imperfect work.
We briefly interviewed Mr.. LEE in re-
gard to the business of his three Save fact
ories at Hamler, Deshler aud Milton, and
learned that he has given employment to
about 10 men and boys during the winter,
aud pays all in cash every Saturday night.
He has no partnership with any person,
except Mrs. LEE, and she does not require
him to keep any book account, therefore
he keeps no books and has no definite de-
tails as to his immense business transact
ious. He thinks he has purchased be-
tween 1000 and 5000 cords OF 3 ave boil S

"A farewell ball was given at Centen-

lutte to several of our young people who
contemplate going away, which proved to
be the hoppiost event of the kind of the
season. 1t was hastily gotten up, but was
largely attended there being representatives

kins, Columbus Grove and fine turnout from
home The Haskins Orchestra furnished
the music, which was all that could be
desired, and Mr.. G Eo. GErz served bounti-
full and elegant supper at his commodious
residence. The Toledo Bee wrote the affair
up in grand style, reversing the tactics by
describing the gentlemen's scostumes-treat-
