BALANCE UP TIE nnnKs.

We would most respectfully inform ti,<
patrons OF the JOURNAL that Newspaper
cna not he printed without tabor and
money. We dc not intend this as a dun
to promr, paying subscribers, nor do we
desire 10 Cypress these who are struggling
10 save their homes from merciless, ooid-
blooded, grssping ring, made up fro,a the
two grand old parties. With these we
are victim and therefore a sympathizer.
But we asust havc money. None Of our
patroas can say that We have not been
lenient with them. We are struggling
| against a compounded combination OF
bucket shop, grove,ing greed, corruption
and pills, whose plant and growth In Wood
county has been more deadly than forest
OF Upas trees. We have an abundance OF
evidence that many Of our patrons have
been seen personally or communicated
with and requested TO withhold payment OF
that which we have earned and is Justly
our due, for the sole purpose of forcing US
10 put the JOURNAL IN the hands of the
combination or crowd US 10 the wall. Mr..
Fred Hillabrand, the travelling agent IN
two languages for the Wood County Com
bination, made up OF about equal parts OF
religion, Two Ingredients OF politics, and
rum, has informed us that we could sell
any day, and il we refused to sell an op.
position paper would be started. Not dc
sirous to be hasty in matter that affects
ns, and as we believe seriously affects
Wood county, In whose behalf the Sentinel
has saw proper to place US in the role OF II
martyr, we have declined TO be previous
to accept the first proposition, and as this
was once labeled free country, with the
latch string out for the oppressed OF all
nations, we have thus left The door njar as
an invitation TO (dis) )honest competition.
But seriously speaking we would re-
mark in all candor that paper can not
be run on wind, nor promises TO pay. We
don't want any one TO take The paper Just
to help us along. A newspaper in one
sense is public property, and when it fails
TO labor for the public welfare il ceases to
be worthy OF your support. Ii it does
labor for the public welfare you have
double interest in its support-not only in
taking and reading, but paying for it as
well.
We have an abundance due us on sub
scription alone, to meet all our obligations
for the paper which we have been trusting
out for many years TO some. These
should not take advantage OF our leniency
and feel that they are relieved from any
responsibility in the adjustment Of nm hon
est debt We are posting up our books us
fast as time will admit on doubtful claims
and hopeless dead beats, with the view of
"poGting" the honest portion of the com
munity by publishing list OF them in
mourning.

WHO WAS TO BLAMEi
tToledo Democrat.


While travelling on a railroad train a
few days ago we engaged In conversation
an ex-union soldier, who was nlll very
bitter OF the treatment the boys In blue re.
ceived at Andersonvillo and other Con-
federate prisons. His conversation re-
called to mind the expressions upon the
same subject Of Gov. Curtin, the Republi-
can War Governor OF Pennhylvania. He
says:
That on the files OF tho War Depart
mcnt are two rather spicy dispatches, one
addressed TO him by Secretary Stanton
and the other his reply. II was late in
the war, probably p the spring OF 1864,
that Governor Cuftin came TO Washing
ton to see the Secretary of War, aud after
giving him narrowing description oil the
condition OF Federal prisoners in Ander-
sonville he appealed to him to save themN
Mr.. Stanton said he did not see how he
could do anything. "Why," said the
Governor of Pennsylvania, 1--WE have
thousands oil Confederate prisoners; let us
exchange" With some heat the Secre-
tary asked IL lie meant to propose that we
should take back lot of diseased and en-
feebled men who could not return TO the
ranks, aud give the Confederates an equal
number Of healthy and well-fed men who
could at once recruit their armies. "Well,
air." said Stanton, "a man who Processes
to be loyal to the Government ought to be
ashamed 10 make such a reasonable sug-
gestion." Curtain ia an irascible gentle
man, and he left In choleric condition.
Immediately after he got home he receiv-
ed from the Secretary dispatch az fol-
lows I'm the interests Of loyalty TO the
Government and the speedy suppression OF
the Rebellion, you should resign at once
and retire TO private life, which you should
never have left" Curtin replied to the
Secretary: "In the interests Of humanity
you should die and go to hell, where You
should have gone long ago" Neither
gentleman acted on the friendly and dis
Interested advice of the other.

XngersOll on Lincoln.

Under the singular caption of "Motlcy
and Monarch" Col. Robert G. Ingersoll
contributes to the December North Amer
lean Review, a genuine "prose poem" on
Abraham Lincoln, who is summed M and
photographed in single paragraph,
thus:
"Strange mingllng of mirth and tears,
OF the tragic and grotesqne, OF cap and
crown, OF Socrates and Rabelais, of Esop
and Marcus Autelius, of all that is gentle
and just, humorous and honest, merciiul,
wise, langhable, lovable and divine, and
| all cOasecrated TO the use of man; while
through all and over all, an overwllelm-
ing senHe of obligation. of chivaric loyal
ty to truth, and upon all the shadow of
the tragic end"
And here are some more of The diamonds

superb cluster.
Nearly all the great historic characters
are impossible monsters, disproporlioned
by hat;ery or by calnmny deformed. We
know nothing of their pecuIiarities, or
nothing but their peculiarities.
Washington is now only steel engrav-
loved and hated and schemed, we know
but lite. y
Hundreds Of people are now engaged in
| smoothing out the lines OF Lincoln's face
forcing all features to the common
moud-so that he may I've known, not MS
he really was, but, according to their poor
STANDARD as he should have been.
Lincoln never finished nis education.
To the night OF his death lie was pupil,
a learner, an enquirer, seeker after
knowledge. You have no idea how many
men are spoiled by what is called educn-
!ion. For the most part colleges are
PiaceH where Fen"ies are polished and dia-
monds are dimmed. II Shakespeare had
graduated at Oxford, he might have been
qniobling attorney or .hypocri'ical
Nothing discloses real power like the
use of power. 1t ia easy for the weak to
be gentle. Most people can bear adversely
But if You wish to know what a man
really is give him power. This is the
supreme test, 1t is the glory of Lincoln
that, having almost absolute certain power,
he never abused it, except on the side of
mercy.
Lincoln WAS the grandest figure of the
fercest civil war. He is the gentlest
memory OF our world.
Who is it that has seen his honest face.
or has knowledge OF his struggles with the
groveling, egotistic and unpAtriotic fac
tions during the war but would recognize
III the above Abraham Lincoln, though
his name had not been mentioned.

THE GREAT GROVER TRIAL.

For nine days, business has been at
dstill-right on the eve of the hoped.
for brilliant holiday trade-so intense ha.
been the excitement over the Grover mur-
der trial, the most brilliant and exciting
Of any similar event that ever stained the
records OF any criminal docket in this or
tho old world. The assassination OF
President was no comparison.
The prosecution made clear case OF
two tramps leaving Orwell. Ashtabula

April, leaving an unpaid boa,d bill be,

toll gates beyond Fremont and up TO
Stony Ridge in this county by the tes,i- :
mony of the gate keepers, who had cause
to scan their features closely that they
might recognize them on their "promise
to psy"ioll for pony and buckbord on
their return through the gates, which of
course was not the intention of the ira mps
TO do. Beyond Stony Ridge Grover and
the pony and buckboid and Loomis' ef-
1ects were traced to the place of his capt.

in possession OF the rig, and in Michigan
had relative wash some clothing for him

There was little or nothing produced b,

evidence.
There are two points on which tile pub
lie are left in great suspense and to wrang

the pony and buckbord, some expert wit

rig as high as $50, while others reduced
