State Tobacco Warehouse.

By act of the last General Assembly
the Attorney General, Auditor of State
and Treasurer of State were authorized
to sell the State Warehouse at Bellaire
They had it appraised sometime ago and
advertised for bids. Rhe establishment
was appraised at $4,000, and had to sell
for no less than thIee-fourths ($9,OOO).
Yesterday was the day for opening bids
and there was only one bid for the prop
erty, that being from Mr. I. j. Mercer,
President of the First National Bank at
Bellaire, and for 5000. That tobacco
warehouse cost the State some four
years ago over $4,000. Then there was
tobacco inspector appointed, first by
Governor Young and next by Governor
Bishop, and there has in all that time
never been but four hogsheads of tobac-
co in the place. This great stroke of
management is attributed to Mr.. Wat
son, of Monroe county, who came to the
Legislature for that purpose and worf ed
for four years to get it through. 1t was

SOME of the candidates for Common
Pleas Judge, who are industriously cir
culating tickers in their interests, in this
city, have met with difficulties. The
old wheel horses of the Democracy, who
have held the check reins in tine past,
have turned their back on the proposed
plan to rule out Pultney, or any other
township that is not in accord with the
clique at st. Clairsville. From one gen
tieman, who has been a. member of the
county committees for years, and per-
haps is now, we learn that Pultney will
send her own delegates to the Judic' al
Convention. lie says they do not pro-
pose, while they are Democrats, to sub
NIT to the undemocTatic rule of allow
ing col tain townships to be represented
in convention by set of men who
Can not control corporal's guard of
votes, and this, he thinks, will be one of
the direct results of the new departure y
Some of the candidates have hard work
to find men to stick to their interests
Three have already declined to serve as
delegates. and it is thought more will
follow. 1t is just possible that, if Bel
mont should carry of the nomination
by this new Departure that Monroe
will ran and elect the Judge at any rate
This county is not and can not be made
solid for any man. and Monroe will vote
for a Monroe man. il cheated in the con
vention. Thus, it seems, that the plan:

machine is becoming so apparently sci

SHORTLY after noon on Sunday smoke
was discovered issuing from the roof of
the building on Main street occupied by
Fred Kies as. a restaurant. An alarm of
fire was at once given, and upon invests
cation it was found that the fire was in
the garret among some shucks which
had been emptied from an old mattress
and were ignited by matches in the
hands of the children. A few buckets
of water stopped the spread Of the
flames, which would have kindled into a
fire of no mean dimensions had they got
under full headway. 1t is a good time
of year to be watchful and careful with
fire.

JULY CROP REPORT.
About Twenty-Five Per Cent. Falling
on in Wheat.

Secretary Chamberlain, of the State
Board of Agriculture, furnishes the fol
lowing, from the forthcoming July crop
report, compiled under the auspices OF
the Board and based upon reports from
one thousand township correspondents
received between July 1st and July 4th
1881: -~Es-
Percentages of the condition and pros,
poets of crops compared with July 1st
1880: Wheat II, rye Sc, oats "a, corn 70
timothy 90, clover hay 10, red top 81,
Hungarian 90, potatoes SO, tobacco 81,
apples SO, pears 62, peaches 43, plEms So
grapes u, .---ss .-.-
Wheat prospects, May 1st, were re-
ported S5.i The loss is due to the May
drouth and &, to the Hessian fly. Much
of the wheat is thin on the ground but
has long heads and plump berry. Nearly
the entire crop of wheat for Ohio has
been secured in good wheather and is in
good condition. Seventy-seven per cent
of last years, crop (52.0O0,00O as esti-
mated by the State Board November
last, would be 100000 bushels. But as
compared with the estimate of the
Washington Department (39,000.000) it
would be but 100000. At al events
the present estimate is for u per cent.
of last years crop whatever that was.
The prospects in Michigan, Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa are far less than fifty
per cent of last years totals, according
to reports received by the Ohio State
Board from official and private sources.
From the latest reports received since
harvest is nearly finished, Secretary
Chamberlain is of the opinion that
threshers returns will not show more
than 20 per cent. of last years crop in
Ohio ist.s. I- -

SOME time ago stranger came into
our midst and stopped at the National
Hotel, announcing that he would prac-
tice medicine in this town and vicinity.
This was w. A. France. As usual a
good many people said at first, "He is a
quack," but we can now truthfully an
nounce that he has proved himself emf
nently successful, and reliable physi-
clan. His thorough knowledge of medi-
cine, his many wonderful cures, and his
honest and gentlemanly dealing with
the public, dispels the thought from
every mind. DR.. France comes among
us with the highest recommendations as
a physician of true merit. His success
here has been remarkable. Let it be re-
membered that the doctor will be at the
National Hotel. July 25th, and remain
for one week only.

On Saturday, near Barnesville, the
team of George Douglas became fright
ed and ran away, out the Hendrysburg
pike. The occupants of the spring
wagon to which they were hooked, were
Mr.. Douglass and son, about 10 years
old, who was driving, Mss Matte Rich
ardson and one or two others. The
team dashed down the big hill north of
town at fearful speed, spilling ont most
of the occupants along the way, and in
jurying them all more orless Miss Rich
ardson retained her placed in the wag-
on until it arrived near the foot of the
hill, but being unable to hold the place
longer, she was thrown several feet out
of the wagon, receiving very severe in
juries-her face being terribly cut, jaw
broken, teeth knocked out and one arm
broken. The horses ran about three
miles before they were stopped, tearing
the wagon to atoms.
