our great natural advantages are

immigration will seek to utilize them

Brick Pomer0y's Paper.

A correspondent of the st. Paul Dis
patch, writing from La Crosse, Wis,
says as follows concerning the La Crosse
Democrat, Brick Pomeroy's great Green
back paper:
"Nobody would or should leave La
Crosse without having seen Brick Pome>
roy, and his great newspaper establish
ment I certainly would not. A kind
friend introduced me to that celebrated

an elderly gentleman, but found Mr..

presses one favorably. His intellectual
capacity seems foremost at first glance.
/ must but admire the man, whether
agreeing with him Or not. His great en-
ergy, his courage, his frankness of ex-
preston ought to be admired as long as
we prescribe no one for his opinion IS
sake. L was shown through his whole
establishment. It is indeed model of
a printing office. Everything works
like clock work. Every one is at his
post doing his duty. No man is here
employed who uses Intoxicating drinks,
swears or curses, and who otherwise is
not polite in his manners. I can but ap>
prove of this mode of qualification. Let
every employer improve, if possible, the
morals of his employees and society will
be elevated. The private Office Of Mr..
Pomeroy, containing editorial rooms,
etc., is especially model of elegance as
l have never seen before. It is much
handsomer than have seen even in the
New York Herald"

Mr.. Sayler on the Ohio Campaign

Interview in Cincinnati Enquirer.]
Reporter--What do you think of the pros
poets in Ohio this fall?
Mr.sayler-I think the prospects for the
election of the Democratic ticket in Ohio this
fall very good. base my opinion, first, on
the character of our candidates; and secondly,
on the position taken by the Democracy of
the State in their platform on the various
questions at issue before the people. Contra
~ to the views Of the Democrats of New
York, believe the leading and controlling
issues in the coming canvass will be the ques-
tions of finance and currency. I don't believe
that the people of Ohio are in favor of EXTEND
ing the fraud which was perpetrated by the
aot of 1869, any further than is absolutely
beyond their control. think that great
favor Of q complete restoration of the silver
dollar Of 4l23 grains to its former place in the
currency in the country, and don't believe
that they are in favor of making perpetual a
system of banking which is expensive to them
selves, and which, unlike any other system
ever dev ised, enables those engaged in it to
draw interest on their debts. think, on the
contrary, that great majority of the people
feel that silver should be fully remonetized,
and that greenbaeks should be gradually sub
stituted for national bank currency that the
government alone should issue the paper
money Of the country, and that this should
constitute its sole paper currency. As to what
are known as the political issues, am sure
that the free and freedom loving people of the
State are in entire accord with the clear and
manly declarations Of our platform. believe
that they are utterly opposed to the presence
Of troops at the polls for the purpose of con-
trolling or efecting in any way the entire
freedom Of elections
Reporter-And on the supervisor ques-
ton {
Mr.. Sayler-f believe that they are equally
opposed to the presence of United States su-
pervisors and marshals appointed especially
for this purpose, for whatever may be the
pretense Of the Republican party, the fact re-
mains that the appointment Of deputy mar
shals, especially, is purely political and
partisan measure, and they become, at the ex-

Newark, Ohio, a fine looking 18 horse

drive the different machines which
they will put in. They have already
ordered three lathes, a planer, bolt cut

As most of the mails to and from
this place have stopped, owing to the
contractors being unable to sub>let
them at the price they took them for,
we are obliged to send out the Press
by private parties whenever opportu>
nifty offers, and expect to have to do
so for some time. If the contractors
who have thus failed to carry out their
contracts were some poor men, resid>
ing in this section of the country, they
would, undoubtedly, be made to suffer
the full penalty of the law governing
the case, as they reside in Washington
and are old contractors, it is doubtful,
if the law will be enforced. It is to
be hoped, it will teach them lesson,
and that hereafter the work can be
bid in at fair or remunerative price.
How long we will be made to suffer
and be inconvenienced in consequence
Of these straw bidders, we are unable
to say.

Several large shipments Of snake
root have been made from this place
during the past week. Yesterday G.
A. Morrison. Of White Earth, con-
signed one shipment of over FIVE thou>
sand pounds to VIM. Lee & Co., st.

Another most disgraceful fight took
place upon the streets Of Detroit last
Monday afternoon. The trouble was
caused by two or three men who had
taken too much ''bensine," and others
were drawn in until ten or a dozen
men were engaged in a general knocks
down. Several sore heads were caused
by stones, fists and boots, which were
used freely, and one man had his left
shoulder dislocated. DR.. Stewart was
called upon to adjust the injured mem.
ber. These melecs occur altogether
too frequently in this place, and it is
about time some means were devised
by our citizens to have a stop put to
them, and to see that the instigators
are dealt with according to law, for
thus violating the peace and order of
the town.
