The DEMOCRAT published an item some
time ago, n%arrating new law passed
last winter, making some radical changes
in the system of road working, putting
it into the hands of the Trustees of each
township. 1t is all a mistake. The law
passed the House, but failed in the Sem
ate, consequently the old system is still
in force.

If the cutting down of the streets had
been let to contract, as they should have
been, four or five hundred dollars would
have been saved to the Taxpayers of the
Corporation. When will we be blessed
with a Council that will have no "axes
to grind" but do the square thing for
our citizens?
Our quiet little neighboring village of
New Paris has finished a public build
ing, in the rear of which is a "well ven
tilated station house," says a contempo-
rary. As there are no saloons in New
Paris and of course no whisky sold there,
and as whisky is the source of all crime
and devilment, what does the good moral
place want with a station house?
An exchange says: Put a te%aspoonful
of sulphur in the nest as soon rs hens or
turkeys are set. The heat of the fowls
cause the fumes of the sulphur to pene-
trate every part of their bodies; every
louise is killed, and as all nits are hatch
ed within ten days, when the mother
leaves the nest with her brood, she is
perfectly free from nits or lice.

1t is the invariable rule of editors to
payne attention to anonymous scribblers.
Such persons are not unlike the murder
er who slips up behind you to give you
the fatal stab. If the anonymous scrib-
bier knew how little account he was in
this world he would go and hide his face
for very shame. Alone in the world,
with no 10 love or honor him, the
world would be the better off if it was
rid of him.

The June Term of the Preble County

ton 1907 of the revised statutes, which

forthwith. There is a necessity for the
enforcement OF the law in Eaton.

Michael and Frederick Locke, two live
and stanch Harrison Township Demo-
Gratis, dropped into the DEMOCRAT Office
last Monday morning and deposited $13.-
80 on subscription, paying arrears and
away ahead. They said they could not
do without the paper. We like to take
such Democrats by the hand and
"shake." They reported a heavy hail
storm in their neighborhood on Saturday
afternoon last, doing much damage to
fruit, vegetation and grain.
