SHAMEFUL ISLANDERS OH our fellow
German citizens have appeared in the
Toledo Bee within the past week, which
reflects but little credit upon the news
paper. The articles are so in varia nee
with facts and the truth that they as
sumo libelous character, and are justly
condemned by all good citizens. Per-
haps they were intended as burlesques.
If so, they were sorry failure, and
while bordering upon the ludicrous,
they too plainly show an animous
which is dangerous to exist. And then
the singling out of individuals was in
very bad taste, and justly deserves con-
demnation. But what surprises us the
most is, that so many take the matter
as gospel truth and love to dwell upon
it. There is no better or more peaceable
class of citizens than our Germans, and
they should be treated with that respect
which is due to all law abiding citizens,
of whatever nationality.

The Spring Election.

Weagree with an exchange when it
says that the importance of the Spring
election is apt to be overlooked and
does not usually receive the attention
that its importance demands 1t is
not only privilege, but duty that all
good citizens owe to the municipality
wherein they reside, to see that they
are governed by good, active, energetic
and reliable men, and if they are not
properly represented in the City Coun-
Gil it is their own fault. 1t is impor-
tant to the Democratic party that they
should be successful in the coming
Spring election. 1t will be the first
election held under a Democratic ad-
ministration in the last quarter of a
century, and it is necessary that the
hands of the administration should be
held up in its herculean endeavor to
place the government on an honest. ba-
sis and administer it in an economical
manner, in the interest of the people.
In order to do this it is necessary that
the Democratic party nominate good
men for the positions on their ticket at
the coming election; men that will pole
the full strength of the party. So far as
we can learn this has been done in those
township that have already held their
caucuses. Now, let every Dem ocrat
use his best efforts to elect every man
upon the ticket. We may have had a
choice in the caucus and was not sue
cessful, but as the doctrine of the
Democratic party is and always has
been that the majority rule, it is'the
duty of all Democrats to give the ticket
nominated their undivided support.

Stone Rosds-The Commissionership
EDITOR NORTHWEST have re-
ceived the following note, and not
knowing to- what extent misrepresenta-
tions may have been made, take this
method of answering the query:
DEsHLER, Ohio, March 2S, 1885.
GEO. DAUM, ESQ, Napoleon, o.,
Dear Sir: A report is being circulated
that should you be elected Commission
er, you will favor the immediate con-
struction of stone pixies on the main
roads leading into Napoleon. Will you
be kind enough to let me know how
much truth there is i'm this electiOneer-
ing dodge? Resp. yours,
J. A. HOLMES.
Mr.. Holmes is right in calling this an
'electioneering dodge" In the present
financial condition of Henry county-a
bonded debt of over 500, ,OOO-the great
est economy is needed, and retrench-
ment should be instituted in every de-
partment of the county government,
and the construction of stone pixies, no
matter how desirable the improvement
might be, before this enormous debt is
paid, would in my opinion, be placing
upon the already overburdeneds. tax
payers of the county, a burden greater
than they could bear, and would result
in financial destruction to many of
them.
Under these circumstances, and for
the reasons 1 have, stated, 1 am at this
time firmly opposed to the construction
of stone pixies, and shall oppose the
same if elected Commissioner.
Respectfully yours,
GEORGE DAUM.

While we do not wish to take part
between the candidates seeking the
nominations at the Democratic prima-
Ties on Monday next, we hope that good
men will be selected and feel that the
Democrats can be safely trusted with
the duty of making the selections. We
have, however, this word of caution to
Democrats: Use your own judgment
and knowledge of men-they can be
correctly measured by their past affilia-
tions and conduct; pay no attention to
the gratuitous advice and counsel of
Republicans. An enemies advise must
always be received with suspicion
by his foe-and whenever the Re-
publican journals and partisans'exhibit
an undue zeal in Democratic nominees
it is well to scan it with great care. 1t
has of late also became a very common
practice for over-zealous friends of can
didates to seek, not only to laud their
own preferences, but to traduce their
rivals. This caution is suggested by
information we have received that GER
tain Republicans, together with the Re-
publican organ of this county, will at
temptto dictate the Democratic nomi-
nees. Democrats, exercise your own
judgment.

President Cleveland is very unlike
the men who have been holding down

when he strikes the right man for the

THE Republican members of the Leg
islature will have a nice time explain
ing to their constituents their action on
the license amendment. Republicans
have frequently attempted to convert
Democrats to the Scott law on the ar
gument that in effect it was the same as
license. The Scott law, however, was
unconstitutional, and when the Demo-
Gratis propose and unanimously support
q constitutional plan for deriving reye-
nue. from the liquor traffic, and one in
which there would be as much moral
restraint as in the tax law, the Repub-
licans effectually obstruct it with cau-

A BILL has been introduced in the
House at Columbus, which, if it be-
comes a law, is liable to revolutionize
the income of the Auditors and Treas
urers of the various counties in Ohio.
The bill amends sections 1869 and ILL,
Revised Statutes, so that County Audi
tors shall receive salary instead of fees,
the salary to be as follows: In counties
containing 1000 male inhabitants above
the age of twenty-one years, $500 per
year, and in counties having more than
1000 such inhabitants, 81 for each adj
ditional 100 inhabitants above 2,000
and providing that the County Treas
urer on settlement semi-annually with
the County Auditor shall be allowed as
fees on all moneys collected on the
grand duplicate the following percent
ages: On the first 1000, 2! per cent; on
the next $4,000, II; on the next $4,000
1-10 of L; on the next 100000, $40 of l,
and on all moneys collected otherwise
than on the duplicate the following per-
centages: on licenses, fines, forfeitures,
or on bonds or recognizances, on the
first 81 900, 6, and on all over 81 900, 5;
and on all other moneys collected, on
the first $4,000, 1-l0; and on all over
that amount, $40 of |: but the Treasur-
er shall not be allowed fees or percent
age on any moneys received from the
State Treasury or from his predecessor,
or any moneys received from the sale
ofcounty or municipal bonds. The bill
is not likely to become II law. These
officers are too poorly paid now in coun-
try districts and to cut their pittance
down would be an outrage. In large
city districts probably these officers and
others draw too much money in fees
and otherwise and deserve to be cut
down, but the average county auditor
and treasurer gets little enough.

THE New York Tribune announced
that two gentlemen named James G.
Blaine and Stephen B. Elkins "lost 500
600 by their investments in the Hook
ing Valley" A statement like this
coming from so high souce seems like
q memory of some horrible dream.
What can it mean? Last September
and October the country was assured
over the signature of these same gentle
men that neither of them had ever had
a dollar invested in the Hooking Valley
enterprise. And the Tribune devoted
a large amount of its valuable space
every day in denying that Blaine ever
invested dollar there.

mutterings, heard on the streets after
the caucus last Saturday, l deem it a
duty as a Democrat to address my DEM
ocratic friends in this way. We all
know the assessorship was hotly con-
tested on both sides. Uncle John Snapp
admits the fairness of the caucus, both
in regard to who voted and the manner
of voting, and says that he was fairly
beaten. and from now on is a Stoner
man. And now, as Democrats, is it not
better both for our success now and
hereafter as aparty that we stand by the
nominees. We all know the nominee
for assessor is a straight Democrat and
his judgment and integrity is not ques-
toned by any one, either Democrat or
Republican, and is it fair that we, (be-
cause dissatisfied with the actions of a
few in this contest, the nominee taking
no part), whip them over his back, and
that is what we do when we scratch
him and vote for the Republican. Now,
