The Road Question.

Since Napoleon township has commenced
to improve its roads, the question of I'M
proved highways is being considerably agi.
tated over the county. That the roads i'm
proved in Napoleon and Ridgeville town.
ships have proven a success but few will
deny, and that they have been great help to
these townships all must admit.
There is no doubt but that the road i'm
provement sentiment is growing, and the
only drawback TO other townships taking
hold of the matter and pushing it to q COM
pletion, is the dislike TO the present law
under which these special improvements are
being made. Upon investigation we find one
Of the chief objections to the law is that part
giving the County Commissioners supervis-
ion over the construction of the work, the OBJ
jectors believing that each township, through
its trustees, should do the work, thereby
taking the matter completely out of the
hands of the County Commissioners.
tits the general opinion that had the law
thus given the supervision of construction to
the townshsp trustees that the question would
have carried in Harrison township at the
recent election, and that other townships
would commence improving their roads
under the new law.
Why not have tho law so amended as to
give the truste es the power which is now con-
ferred upon the County Commissioners? We
believe the commissioners would be willing
to have it so amended. We only throw this
out as suggestion, being firm believer in
road improvement.

~ The East Liverpool Crisis says it is a
source of much surprise to our political OPP
ponents when they see how easily the Democ-
racy takes its defeat, and how it is already
on its feet eager for another fray at the ballot
box.
The secret of this is due to the fact that the
Democracy is fighting for principle, not for
spoils of Office or personal qualification, 1t
is in this that their source of JOY is found,
even though defeat has been their lot. They
recognize that it is the people, not them,
that has made the mistake; that they have
been beaten at the polls simply because the
opposition, by money and clap-trap argu-
ments, have succeeded in binding the eyes
of the people to the etrue issue, and the theory
that the Democrats were advancing. Tariff
reform was confounded with free trade and
the supreme Stiffness that the great Demo
cratic party was seeking to destroy the ma
tion no doubt found converts.
The American public, however, are not
fools, and within the next four years they
will understand the situation better. When
that time arrives the Democracy will be
triumphant, and that is what is furnishing
the secret joy of the party at present.

To Our Readers.

We cannot too strongly urge upon our
readers the necessity of subscribing for a
family weekly newspaper of the first class
such, for instance, as The Independent, of
New York. Were we obi. ed to select one
publication for habitual and careful reading
to the exclusion of all others, we should
choose unhesitatingly The Independent. 1t
is newspaper, magazine and review, all
i'll one. 1t religious, literary, au edu-
cational, story, an art, scientific, an agri-
cultural, a financial, and a political paper
combined. 1t has 50 folio pages and 81 de-
partments. No matter what apersons relig-
ion, politics or profession may be, no matter
what the age, sex, employment or condition
may be, The Independent will prove help,
an instructor, an educator. Our readers can
do no less than to send postal for free
specimen copy, or for 30 cents the paper will
be sent month, enabling one to Judge of its
merits more critically. Its yearly subscrip-
ton is So, or two years for S..

sEThe Republican attemptto steal West
Virginia did not pan out well.

rEThe defeat of the national Democracy
is only temporary, as the principles enunci-
sted will continue TO make progress until
the people will zee the mistake made in
throwing them of for false issues. Lower
taxation must come on the lines laid down by
President Cleveland. To reduce the taxes on
luxuries, ON whisky, and continue them on
necessaries of life will meet with no favor in
this country. When the American people
thoroughly understand the present system of
taxation, when they know that favored few
are to-day benefited by high tariff at the
expense of the masses, then its overthrow
will be brought about. The battle is on and
will never end until victory is assured.-Er.
