a solid granite monument to the memory
Of the late Robert Smith, of this village.

the finest specimens of architecture in the

Is % ieet square at the base, and stands

Hundreds OF people from the village and

The SleepIng.Car Question.


We publish in another column discus.

car lare question, not wholly as an indor, e.
ment OF its views, but for the practical in
formation and thoughts contained therein
which may lead to better understanding
OF the question. We must confess TINT
from reading the article over the second
time we are lei TO view the question in n
somewhat different light from that in
which it has heretofore been presented to
us. We have paid 50 for nights rest in
n Palace car, aud we could not down the
thought that it was absorbing the wages OF
a day TO get nights rest, without leaving
a coupon 10 clip of for a breakfast or n
dinner Again we have rode all night in
a car without the Palace attachment, and
after We had packed and repncked in every
conceivable form six feet in the space of
three, and had turned around as often ms
the canine in the vain endeavor to find out
which end Of the bed contained the pillow
before lying down, we usually felt ut the
end OF the ten or twelve hours that we had
spent more than 50 in Il jamboree during
the night. II ia II perplcxlng question

We don't believe, however, that the com.

only tends TO drive capital from investing

FROM TONTOGANY,

! ED. JOURNAL III you and the many
readers OF your paper have read the Com
mercdl correspondence from this place you
must have decided that we, as town, are
anything but intelligent. The learned cor.
respondent wrote a short time since that
"the people OF our place read only the
| Commercial and the Sentinel" That probably
explains some things | could not clearly
understand before; but If this il the extent
| OF that gentleman's reading we will no long
er wonder at his lack Of intelligence in re
gard to the simplest rules OF grammar and
the very rudimcnts of rhetoric. However,
we want it understood that some Of us take
and read more than these two papers, and
that, probably, is the reason We are not
among those he mentions in his last week s
article when he says, "Some people think
an engine is nothing but lumber wagon" d"
But we are ignorant enough never to have
heard the "old proverb " he quotes this
week, "WheD there is smoke fire is not
far off" Truly, "A lille learning is a dan
gerouS thing"

The Wood County Republican Conven
tion, e. select delegates to the State Con
vention, assembled at the Court House
Bowling Green, yesterday and organized
by selecting L. A. HfGGINs, Chairman
and ABEL CoM,TocH, Secretary.
Owing 10 the busy time with the farm
ers the attendance was small.
There being no dissenting voice no reg
ular delegates were selected, but on mo.
tion all Republicans present at the State
Convention flom Wood county were in
structed to cast the six votes Of the coun-
ty. While no instructions were given it
was the opinion of all present that the
wishes of the Republicans of the county
would be expressed by the support OF
CHARLES FOSTER for Governor.
After some discussion regarding the
reorganization OF the County Central
Committee, the matter was laid on the
table and Convention adjourned.

The Bowling Green Reporter urges the
people of Wood county to enter protest
against the wasteful and 'extravagant "
expenditure Of their money. That is all
good enough, but there is often a question
as to what constitutes the wastciul and
exlravagant expenditure ofmoney Tole,io
Commercial.
The payment Of three thousand dollars
to broker to negotiate sixty thousand
dollars worth Of bonds, in violation of law,
and in face OF the fact that the bonds could
have been sold at a small premium, will
not admit OF any question Of doubt in this
case.

We had hoped after the Spring election
was over that peace, white winged peace,
might rGiYn suprt me for tme on the
School Board question, but it seems that
the Perrysburg End of the Sentinel Is too
prolific in Imagination and vindictiveness
to allow realization of any such hope.
If newspaper versions had any influence
upon the Supreme Court, there might be
some excuse for the efforts made in TIL -,
direction, but it only serves 10 stir up To-
cal strife which is usually regarded as
detrimental to the interests of the COM
munity. From experience in the past
six months it would seem that something
might have been learned, but it appears
that little more schooling is necessary.
We regret to see the Bee lend its aid by
copying the tcle sent from this place
TO the Sentinel and C editing The same 10
that paper, when it was comversant with
the origin and OUGHT TO know that any,
thing but pleasant results must follow
the agglng on of that strife.
