The Elyria Republican says that the
friends Of E. g. johnson haye decided to
present his name as candidate for con-
gress in this district. Why don't the Re-
publican give some opinion OF its own on
the subjectS-Wellington Enterprise.
AS the Enterprise desires the opinion of
TIE Republican, we will say that the bare
announcement OF Mr.. Johnson's name
ought 10 be sufficient. He is known to all
our citizens. His personal equipment for
that office is not surpassed by that Of any
man in this county. No man surpasses
him in energy, and no man has done more
for republicanism, or better deserves the
support Of the people. This opinion does
no discredit to the other able workers in
the Republican party, any of whom If
nominated, will receive the united support
Of the Republican Lost.-Republican.
Mr.. Johnson's personal equipment for
the position of representative is inquest
toned, and should he secure the persim-
mons his constituents would hear from
him upon all the leading questions from
the halls Of congress at very early date.

THE Massachusetts Society for the Pre-.
vention of Cruelty to Animals is still ac-
tiyely waging war upon the overhead
check. 1t would appear that the personal
interest of owners Of horsefesh would be
sufficient to induce a careful consideration
of this subject on their own account, but
practical results rather indicate tendency
to be guided by fashion without much re-
gard to consequences in individual cases.
At all events the overhead check remains,
despite the fact that. 500 veterinary surg
cons of Great Britain have signed paper
condemning it as painful 10 horses and
productive of disease. 1t certainly is a
serious inconvenience TO most horses, and,
except in a few cases, its use is probably
continued through thoughtlessness rather
than for any definite reason, real or imag-
mary.
