COUNTY,
BELLAIRE AND MARTlA's EERRE,
And the COunIy.SeAt-Ths Question Of
RsmOVAI-PsFSOnaI GOaaiP and
Other InlaFeslinG News from
our ohio NeIEhbOEs.

ST. CLAIRsvILLE, o., July la rumor pre-
vailed upon our streets yesterday that tn
station Of Qaincy on the Central Ohio Rail
rood had been discontinued, The question
naturally arose as to what would be the etEec
on our narrow gauge, We hunted up thC
facts in the case, which We believe to bs sbou
as follows: Heretofore each company (thI
b. & o. and the St. ClaiFsviIls Narrow GauS,
has paid the agent at Quincy one-haf hi
salary. The Secretary Of tbs Narrow Gauge
Company thought his road was paying more
than is share, because 1t furnishes more
freight than II rsce yes. and the B. 4 o. Com.
pany has the local business OF the station
The latter company being unwilling 10 change
the terms under which they had been acting,
disagreement has occurred. But we under.
stand that any matter OF disoonIinuAnce OF the
station will not interfere with passenger
travel, 1t only disseminating as freight sta.
ton.
since the county seat removal ticket has
been pnt in the field there has b en- great
deal OF discussion Of the matter and Its pro-
pEiety. It's understood that the He!teIS up
OF that ticket ask the Democrats In their com.
lnS county convention TO adopt the Demo-
attic candidates and the Republican,
ton tle Republican candidates Of their ticket,
and that they will appear 10 these ConVen,
tions to aid In bringing about that end. II is
difficult 10 sec how any Of the candidates eau
bs adopted by such Conventions II Is pre-.
sumed that their candidates are expected or
p edged 10 support the ticket upon which
they are nominated. This presumption Is
warranted by their acceptance OF the nom.
inatiOn. How can they support other tickets
or either OF them, or pledge the nselVes TO do
50, under the oircunstRncesP 1t looks lie
serving God and Mammon. Again, support.
ers Of the U. 8, K ticket In such conventions
would be asking Democrats 10 let them assist
In making nominations to oppose their own
ticket ana they would ask the same As 10 the
Republicans for they could not expect
a party 10 adopt more than the candidAteS OF
their own politics on the @. 3. K. tiCket-tAk.
ing up cAndidat's OF their party not on that
ticket for the balance Ol thS ticket. Will q
Democratic candidate on the G. g. r ticket
taken up by the Democratic convention be
permitted by the removal Republicans 10 vote
against the Republican candidates on their
tlcket and will the Democrats permit such
candidates To vote for Republicans on the re.
mOvaI ticket? Or will the same be allowed on
the other hand by / o republicans? SO the
matter seems muld!G. and the probability
Is nOns Of the candidates on the removal
ticket will be NdOpted by the conventions
Such seems to he tie idea here,
