WASHINGTON LETTER.
fFrom Our Regular correspondent

WASHINGTON, -. g., August rs, 1884
Probably the most incd chl fraud
that has afflicted the country In the pres
ent generation ia Brewster, the legal non
entity Of the present grnesome admins
traion. 1t was Brewster who told the
other fellows TO stand back aud watch
him while he landed every one Of the
Star Route thieves IN the pcniientiary. II
WIS Brewster who never landed one OF
them in the penitenliary, but made OF
country in general and the legal profess
sion in particular. 1t was Brewsler who
then employed Bradley TO prosecute the
civil cases against the Star Reuters, and
who Will, iuinile buster and bragadocio
declared that they should be drained to
the last dollar ol their stolen fortunes. 1t
Ia now Brewster who qiarrels with Brad
ley, forcing the latter tu retire from the
cases, aud il is Brewster who now threa-
tens to lift himself by the boot-straps and
inject Brewster bodily into the civil cases
for VII lie il worth. And who doesn't
know what will be the outcome? After
Brewster hns expended 100000 OF the
| peoples money 10 get verdict for the
Government. he will open his eyes To dis
cover that the other fellows have had his
jurors and his witnesses and the whcle
court machinery from the start. All in

The mention of "forty stripes save one''
often occur in the Bible, and why thirty
nine should have been selected as The
number in preference TO any other has
repeatedly attracted attention and called
for explanation. The explanation is
found in the law Of Moses, who comma nded
the culprit to be beaten with n certain
number OF stripes, not TO exceed forty.
They must be given in the presence Of
the Judge to prevent the possibilities of
cruel punishment.

Only fourteen out of the twenty-one
members Of the House of Representatives
from Ohio are natives of the Buckeye State.
Three were born In Pennsylvania, one in

our advertisement on the cover OF the
Wood County Fair Premium List, and II
was this conviction that led TO the two
attacks made upon Auditor Poe prior TO
the Republican convention, with the hope
OF attracting attention TO the fact that 1t
wac important to make n strong nomiha'
tion for this Office, believing as we did
that Mr.. Poe had made some enemies
which might weaken his chances oil The
election. The largest Republican convcn-
iion ever held in Wood county decided to
give Mr.. Poe fighting chance for the Sec
ond term, without dissenting voice, aud
and we then and there decided 10 accept
the results Of that convention.
The movements Of the opposition since
Ia sufficient 10 convince any one that no
reform In intended, aud we have reason to
believe that some Of The worst and most
corrupt elements OF the old ring are work
ing with this new movement to get charge
OF the offices.
The frat move was for call for q
straight Democratic convention. This was
| followed by call for peoples' and

on the same day. Over n week previous
secret caucus was held IN Perrysburg, nj
which about baker's dozen were present
