A LEADING merchant of Shawnee,
Ohio, gives a picture of the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor, an
extract from which appears in the
Cincinnati Commercial as follows:
Mr.. Bookwalter was here as you
saw stated in the newspapers. 1
saw him, was introduced to him, and
was ashamed of him. Respectable
men in the Democratic party here
were disposed to hang their heads in
shame at the way he acted, and are
free to say so. [ saw him going
around with some of the most
drunken loafers about Shawnee,
taking them into saloons and treat
ing them, and when asked what he
would take himself, his reply was:
Il will take some straight Demo
cratic whisky. He was full when I
talked with him-not swaggeringly
drunk, but on the verge of it. A
common remark was, Why, he is
full, and the general verdict of out
siders was that the Democratic
party ought to blanket him and keep
him ir the house till the election is
over. s.s-s
This man has running as his ass
sistant in the canvass, a candidate on
the prohibition ticket. 1t is a ease
where extremes have met.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER Is, 1881.

IF the reports of short crops are
true, and they appear to be well
established, this is a good year for
our farmers to put in large crops of
wheat. Good wheat crops almost in
variably follow a dry season, such as
we have had this year. Our farmers
can get their wheat into market a
month before those of the great
wheat growing territory of the North
west. Owing to the general scarcity
of breadstuffs, the first wheat in the
market next year is almost abso-
lutely certain to command a good
price. This being true, our farmers
will make a good thing out
of their wheat crops next year.
They have found out by experience
that by properly preparing their
ground for the reception of the seed,
and by the liberal use of fertilizers,
they can greatly increase the yield
of wheat. With the prospect of an
almost certain good price for their
wheat, we should think that they
would not neglect these simple rules
for securing large yield. We feel
a deep interest in the success of the
agricultural classes, as upon that
the success of all other classes is
based, and we would be glad to see
them make money steadily and
rapidly.

THE NEW ROAD LAW.

From every direction we hear the
same reports in reference to our new
road law. At first it was unpopular,
as changes from old, established
laws and customs generally are. But
as it is tested and the people see its
advantages over the old law demon
strated, it becomes more and more
popular, and if the reports we re-
ceive are fair index to public senti'
ment, the number of persons is very
small who would return to the old
system if they could. That the new
law has imperfections no one
will dispute. One of these, in
our opinion, is that the max
imum of taxation is too low, and we
believe that public sentime emit will
demand an increase by the time
new Legislature is to be elected.
There has always been manifest
injustice in our road laws. Under
the old law, poor man, who owned
nothing but COW and a pony, per-
haps not that, had to bear an equal
proportion of the burden of keeping
up public roads, with the wealthy
man, whose property was benefited
by road improvements. The new
law is less unjust. The man who
has property pays a small tax
on it in addition to furnish
ing labor. But the inequality
would be still more reduced if the
tax on property were increased,
which ought to be done, for few
years at least, until our public roads
were put in something like a decent
condition. We would not insist
upon this, if it were in the nature of
q benevolent contribution, but every
dollar expended in taxes for that
purpose adds more than the amount
paid to the value OF property. We
are glad to hear such excellent re-
ports from the operations of the road

THE HEALTHFULNESS OF OUR Gil.
MATE.

No section of the globe has amOre
hospitable climate than that of Ten
nessee. This is true of Eastern Ten
nessee in special sense. In order
that those of our readers outside OF
the State may know and see for them
selves, Serg't. Jno. A. Cody, of the
signal corps, U. S. A., has at our re-
quest, prepared a table of statistics,
giving a meteorological summary for
the period of eight years, which table
we give in this issue of the WING AND
CHRONICLE. The figures are given
therein, SO that every one can study
them and see for himself. We give
this long period of time, so that it
cannot be said that we have selected
favorable seasons, with a view to de-
ceive immigrants about the climate OF
this section.
It will be observed that in that time,
the mercury has gone below zero
three times January, 1877 January,
1879 and December 1880. These are
exceptional cases and each time, this
extremely cold weather lasted only
few days. On the other hand, the
temperature has reached 100 deg.
but once in the eight years, and
three years out of the five has not
gone above 95 degrees. The mean
temperature for eight years is SIS
degrees The mean summer tenn
perature is about 70 degrees and
the mean winter temperature about
40 degrees. The average maximum
temperature is about 81 degrees, and
the average minimum about 2 deg.
The result is mild climate, without
the extremes of the tropics or OF the
States bordering on our northern
frontier.

In spite of all that the Presidents
physicians say about the favorable
condition of his case, there are per-.
sons who shake their heads solemn~
ly and wisely and say that the doctors
will not tell the truth about it. It
is we'll to remember that the physi-
clans make up their opinion from
actual examination of and daily and
hourly contact with their patient.
Their critics are only guessing, be
cause not one of them have seen the
President since he was shot, and
have no means of arriving at the
true state of the case outside of
what the doctors tell them. Then
which is to be believed, the doctors
who have opportunities for knowing,
or their critics who who have no OPP
portunities and can only guess
Does any one doubt DR.. Hamil-
ton? Read what he says as reported
in our press dispatches this morning.
He expresses the opinion that the
President will recover and be as we'll
as before he was shot. We believe
he thinks so, and we have confidence
in his Judgment. And he has never
disagreed with the other physicians
and we believe they tell the truth.
OF course, when man gets as low
as the President is, he is liable to Sc
rious complications and these may
come unexpectedly. But we will
take the word of the doctors, before
we will that Of outside parties who
do not see the President at all. We
do not believe they are deceiving the
