COLUMBUS. February S-A bill Of
great interest t, farmers and others who
have "worked the roads" in the country

working out his road tax in the same

the cd statute lab,r system, and requires
in its stead direct payment in m ,ney and
the expenditure OF the money upon
roads 1t does away with the small dis.

Of the township trustees. who shall di

Of making repairs. The road tax is to
be paid into the county treasury, thence
back to the township, and pail out for
labor on orders Of the supervisor The
opinion Of farmers generally seems to
be that it will cause rnai work to be
more systematically and completely per.
formed, and that it will tend to eq lalize
the cost to greater extent, and cause
many to pay who have heretofore es.
capped both labor and tsxation.

into the matter Of elections berry pre-
sented it's report, in which it is set forth
that bribery is universally prevalent in
local State and National elections in that
Safe; that it has been condonea to such
an extent that the senses of the people

is effects, and that large proportion
of the voting population depend upon

most feasible curse by which the evil
may be remedied that amnesty be de-
clared for past offenses, that the present

that new law be enacted to take effect

TIE high tariff advocates in Congress
are not making much headway. II their
protection notions cheapened articles oi
necessity to the people, no objections
would be erred. But when they keep
out foreign products. aud rob the Treas
ury of revenue duty, to protect the
pockets OF few American manufac-
turers, then the people have right to
complain. Protection to American in
dustries, as legislated by the Republican
party, means two prices for al protect
ed articles, the Treasury robbed OF du-
ties by keeping out all foreign manufac.
lures and the enriching Of American
manufacturers. Would it not be better
for the people to permit foreign compe-
tiiion in all branches of trader All ar.
ticles of foreign manufacture would then
come into competition with our own
and prices would be reduced fully one
half below what they now are.

AN OHIO SLEEPER.
A Man Who Has Not Been Awake
For q Year.

BUFFALO, N Y. Feb "A very Pc
culiar and remarkable case has just come
to light in this city, but has not vet,
strange to say, attracted the nntice OF
the local press. The S ate Asi lum f"r
the Insane, located here, Is one OF the
largest and finest institutions Of its kind
in the world. 1t contains at present
about $50 patients. the most remarka ole
case among them being that OF a man Of
German descent, who halls from large
town in Southern Ohio. He was found
lying in street here one day over a
year ago, and was taken to polic- sta
tion by an ignorant policeman, who be-
lieved him TO be intoxicated. There his
real condition was discovered by q phY-
sician, and he was hurried away 10 the
insane asylum. The man has snoken
but once during the time he has been an
inmate of the asy .um. 1hen he declared
incoherently that the "La'd had con-
manded him 10 Sleep" and that be
"would be awakened bv the Lord when
1t suited His pleasure" or words to the
same effect. The man is Insane, his
peculiar delusion being that he must
sleep, and sleep he certainly does, for
he is utterly unconscious, and has been
for over year, being fed on liqnor f.o |
just as an infant woald be. His eyes
pever open, and when raised up 10 he'd,
and his support is Withdrawn. be will sink
down as limp as dead pers IN Various
devicas have been resorted to in the vain
endeavor to arouse him from his lethar-
gic condition, including electricity,
shower baths, trickerY, d.. In presence
of a correspondent D.. Granger, one OF
the attending physicians, pinched the
patient 8 fl .sh in sensitive parts, but not
muscle moved or qlivered, ,,t when
the headhoard of his bedsteai va sound.
ly rapp d upon with brass key, the pa.
tients face twitchad convulsivelv. The
man has excellent family connections
and brother of his declares that no
insanity was ever noticed in his brother
previous to his coming to Buffalo on 8
visit, when he was Overtaken nv bis
prasent great misfortune. DR.. Granger
states that the case is a rare one, only
one or two such being on record. He
also states that the patient is liable to
arise at any moment, either a perfect
sane man or combative, destructive,
raving maniac He believes him to be
cognizant Of all that transpires in his
presence. He is thirty years of age and
unmarried The case, when it becomes
more publicly known, will certainly
awaken widespread attention in seien
tlfic and me'lica! circles.
