islation as strengthing the Dow Law.
The Dow Law is defective in its pre-
scription clause, and our Representa-
tive, Mr.. Jonah Britton, and Mr.. D. M.
Massie, our State Senator, should know
what is needed in this district. Neither
the Republican Legislature OF Ohio nor
the Republicans of this State need fear
to endorse the plank in the National
platform adopted at Chicago in 1883.
The Republican party of Ohio has
temporized long enough with the liquor
interest Ito its own defeat in several in
stances). 1t would certainly be both
wise and polite for the party to take
such advance ground on the temperance
question as will DO endorsed by the best
citizens. The PARTY has been committed
to restraining legislation on the liquor
traffic for years past, but more is needed,
and the time opportune. Let our law.
makers be consulted and the needs Of
Hillsboro fully explained and the day will
not be far distant when the law will be
practically operative and effective. The
citizens and Council Of Hillsboro should
90 act in this matter that the will of the
people be sustained, and that law.break-
ers be made to respect the will of the
people as expressed through its laws.

The report that the African explorer,
Stanley, was prisoner in the hands of
the Mahdi is being doubted. At least
fort present too much credence should
not be placed in the report. The falsity
of the report would cause little attention
to the reading public were it not for the
anxiety and interest felt in regard to the
safety OF Stanley.

Disgrr.untls,d.

The action Of Council In refusing to
repeal the prohibitory ordinance 10 not
giving entire satisfaction, II outside in
dications are to be taken a. evidence.
The Hillsboro Gazette called the present
agitation "spasmodic." It would seem
as though some Of our citizens are
threatened with spasms, whether a. re.
suit Of the action Of Council or from
some internal disturbance: cannot yet be
determined. The Gasette's promise to
let the matter be known through its
columns, il the ordinance is not enfored,
meets the approval Of the Nzws-HERALD.
We pledge hearty cooperation, and the
News HERALD will shelter no one, be he
Republican official or private citizen.
We shall speak boldly on the subject,
hewing to the line regardless Of where
the chips fall. Meanwhile, we call the
attention Of the Mayor to the action Of
the Sheriff Of the county in Alabama, in
which the city Of Birmingham is situat.
ed. Sheriff Smith did not wait until a
number Of citizens came to implore him
to do his duty and maintain the dignity
OF the law. He did his sworn duty, and
did maintain the law, even against pub.
lie clamor and an enraged mob; his
name will pass into history as a brave
and fearless officer who did his duty,
There is very great deal depends on
the effort and action Of Mayor Dawson
in making the law honorable and terror
to evil.doers. He already has the pledge
Of Council to stand by him and that
should be sufficient. Let public effort
take care of itself. Public sentiment
will always endorse the action Of brave
and honest official. Many eyes are
turned on Mayor Dawson.

Thirty.sIxth Volume.

With this issue is commenced the 36th vol
ume Of the DEMOCRATIC NoRTHwKsr, which
for IS years has stood in the fore ranks
battling for the cause of Democracy, the
interests of Henry county and the people
therein. Now going on sixteen years the
paper has been under its present manage
ment, and we do not want to brag or bluster,
but we positively assert that the NORTHWEST
has larger paying su absorption list to-day
than ever before-as large as any paper in
this the great Northwest, the Gibraltar of
Democracy of Ohio-and we believe that our
good intentions are well received by our
patrons and the public in general, because
we attempt, and do, give them value received
for their money invested. While some of our
patrons may differ with us politically and
otherwise, but few will question our efforts
in making the NORTHWEST a straightforward
as well as readable paper. We have upon
our subscription lists many names which
were enrolled when the first number of the
paper was printed, thirty five years ago. We
thank them for their long continued patron
age and the many words of encouragement
which they have bestowed upon us. We also
thank our patrons in general for their many
favors. and cherish hope that we may con-
tinue to merit their confidence and that
delinquents may come forward and pay their
dues.
