LAST Tuesday was the centennial
anniversary of the Inauguration vi
George Washington as the first prr>i-
dent of the United States. The Press,
last week, contained IL full account of
that important event, which took
place in the city of New York and
this week we present omr readers with
a full account of the centennial eNpr-
cises. The Press gives the peo-
pie the news and has Just enough, cn-
terprise to scoop its contemporaries
on all important events and the peo-
pie appreciate this, which accounts
for our rapidly increasing circulation.

lscal Estate Assessors.

Auditor of State Poe has addressed
the following letter to county auditors
1t is presumed that all boards OF
county commissioners in the state have
complied with section No. 27S6 of the
Revised Statutes of Ohio, as amended
April 81, 1886, and found on page IS of
the Ohio Laws, vol. SO, so that real
estate assessors may be elected at the
coming November election. II they
have not, they will do so on or before
the first Monday of April, so that they
may be elected on the first Monday OF
April. 1890.
hope also that county commissioners
have taken such steps under section
No. 27S9, as will enable the assessors to
make an intelligent appraisement. This
appraisement, occurring but once in
every ten years, makes it all tho more
important that all the provisions of
the statute be complied with to the end
Siat a just, proper and as an intelli-
gent one be made as can be under our
existing laws.
This is a very important matter to
every taxpayer in the State, and with
them in II great measure lies the re-
sponsibility, for much depends upon
the character, honesty and Judgment
OF the assessors to be chosen by the
electors. So it is that each and every
taxpayer of the State should interest
himself and see that none but the best
material comes TO the office Of district
assessor for 1890.

The candidates selected by the con-
vention are all well-linown citizens, and
hardly need an introduction to our
renders, but for the benefit of new resi-
dents, and keeping before the old ones
the fact that the Republican party me
in the habit of advancing honorable
and intelligent men, we present them
with
HON. G. Il. SPENCER,
Candidate for Representative for the
second term. Mr. Spencer's home is in
Weston, where, for number of years
prior to his candidacy, he has been
practicing medicine with success, ac-
quiring II competency financially, before
desiring the honors conferred upon him
by his constituents. He has served the
people satisfactorily, and will undoubt
cdly be elected by an increased major
ity.
w. r. MOVES
Has also served one term in the Office
of Treasurer, for which he is now seek
ing the franchises of the people. He
is resident of Bowling Green, but that
does not detract from his virtues. Mr..
Noyes, prior to his election to Office,
was engaged in business in the hub,
and has always been noted for his finan-
cial discipline and superior social quail
tiles. He has made an excellent officer,
and deserves, and will get, the solid
vote of Wood county Republicans.
FRANK THOMPSON
Is the candidate for Commissioner.
Nobody else wanted the Office when it
was known that he desired it. He
used to live in Perrysburg township,
and does yet when not out in the county
pulling up dry gas wells, splitting them
in two and laying them for bitches, or
pulling stumps out of the highways.
Frank is farmer and knows what is
needed by his brother farmers. He will
undoubtedly spend his time in crushing
apples into cider until the second Tues
day in November, and then he will ''gct
there"
w. IL. NOOD
Has been there before, and understands
what he is going to do after the first of
January next. As County Surveyor,
Mr.. Wood proved himself II success. in
the time that he has held it heretofore,
and the voters may reasonably expect Il
repetition of his work.
MICHAEL AMOS,
Infrmary Director, can be vouched for
by his neighbors and friends at home,
Portage township, and this fact, TO-
gether with that of his being n staunch
Republican, is sufficient guaranty of an
Xcellent candidate.
DIR. c. S. ST. JOHN.
Although our candidate for Coroner
was not successful, yet we take comfort
in the fact that the Plain township gem
tleman is large enough to hold down
any ordinary corpse, if not endowed
with too much animation. With an M.
ID. at either end of the list, the inter-
mediate candidates should be well taken
care of, and allowed to take their cruel
in the required doses.

TN accordance with announcement
Il made in these Columns last week,
the editor, Col. L. L. Polk, during
the past week, has been in attendance
upon the Atlanta Piedmont Exposi-
ton, and has had no opportunity to
give this issue of his paper any atten-
ton. His absence from the Office of
course will account for any deficien-
cies in the editorial department of to.
days paper. The Iocum ,temems would
suggest to those gentlemen who may
be disappointed at finding no reference
to themselves in this issue to possess
their souls with patience. On his re-
turn the editor will doubtless give
each one the attention he deserves or
may be entitled to.

our people: coca decorticator has
been tested at Bristol, Pa, within a
few days that will interest the people
of the South. The machine was in
tended principally to separate the
tibres of the ramie plant from the
wood. The first test a made by
running a batch of dry stalks of the
ramie plant, which had been brought
from North Carolina, through the
machine. A quantity of jute stalks
were then put through, and finally the
green stalks grown on a neighboring
farm. The machine did it's work in
a most satisfactory manner, leaving
the fbres clean and free from wood.
The fibre was placed in a chemical
preparation after being taken from
the machine for the purpose of dis
solving the gum. It was steamed
two hours, after which it was placed
in the bleaching vat. After bleaching
for about thirty minutes it was taken
out and dried, the entire process of
transforming the green stalks into
delicate fibre ready for the spinner
| having occupied less than three hours.
