The Subscription and the Situation.

Bro. Mckay makes sworn
statement of the number of his
subscribers in Yesterdays issue of
The Journal. The number is only
60 less than one half of The Re-
publican voters of The county.
1t is conceded that there are al
least 200 Republican voters in the
county who can not read, and of
course are not subscribers. To be
subscribers would show them also
10 be fools. Hence Bro. Mckay
has following of 120 more than
one half of ,he Republican voters
nf Hooking county who can read.
THIS is a good showing and our
cotemporary is 10 be congratulat-
ed upon his success III securing
subscribers. But now, in order
10 give zest 10 the situation, Will
Bro. Mckay make a sworn state
ment that with one halt Of the
Republican voters of the county
enlisted under his banner, he was
not authorized 10 publish a call
for a meeting OF The Republican
central committee, that he was
mis- led 10 publishing The 9Th. in
stead Of the 10Th. as the date OF
The meeting, and that he was de
med admission TO the meeting aud
in this, had his more than one
half of the Republicans of this
county ignored and insul;ed bv
the Rempel-PurseIl- Vickers ring.
An affidavit is not demanded for
the above. Ii is true as Mckay
knows, and It's publication in his
widely circulating Journal would
he more interesting than he tale
of Tom Aliens brush heap.
The publication Of the state of
affairs above mentioned would
tend 10 strengthen he statement
that the central committee meet
Ing was harmonious and unani-
Rempelarian, Pursellem,
and Vickarious.

A New Post Route.

A new post route is proposed through
Marion township. When the presen,
route wes established the government
was assured that mail would be csrried
to people alcag the line, and the purpose
of accommodating the public in the
country would be accomplished, even il
the receipts were not sufficient to pay for
feed FOR the carriers rse.
The complaint. we learn, about the
present route is that there is not more
than dozen letters or papers carried in
q week. The people along the line and
at the offices get so few letters and so
few papers tina: it is useless expense
with no one but the mail carrier bene.
fitted and only the postmaster accommo.
dated.
Pa-ties on the new route proposed. We
are told, will guarantee to send Off some
letters. and take some newspapers. Our
mail service is in the control of Republi>
cans and the question of the old route
or the new route or ho route at all, will
be settled by our Republican cotempora-
ries, at their pleasure. We suppose, and
to their benefit, We hope.
The present route was established by
he Democratic administration, and
mainly by the request of Postmaster
Rose and the SENTINEL. The SENrINNL
did not get single new subscriber. VS.
are malicious enough to wish our Repub.
licsn poraries will spend time and
money on route intended especially
for the accommodation of the grateful
public"
But the solemn fact is that the govern
ment will not pay carrier to ride
arourd through Mrrion township, unless
he has some mail matter to carry.

Dog Stealing to be Punished.

hog stealing has heretofore been
an unpuni>hab' 9 offense under g he
laws Of OHIO. A person killing a
dog can be sued fnr.ihe amount at
which the anima: was listed for
taxation. That right is given 10
dog owners by a law enacted by
the last legislature. 1t is strange,
indeed. however. that no provision
for protection against ihefls Of the
canine species is on the statutes.
To meet this howling need. the

The penalty for stealing dog shall
be in proportion TO the value of

Leg Crushed by the Cars.

On last Sunday afternoon a boy
about fourteen years of age named
Delong whose parents reside on the
Rempel farm, jumped on a down
freight train at the Falls Mill. While
the train was slowing up at the Lo.
gan depot, he jumped off, but his
leg was drawn under the car, the
wheels crushing it so that amputa-
tion was necessary. DR.. Campbell,
the railroad physician, assisted by
Drs. Dye and Pullen performed the
operation.
The accident is a sad calamity
to the poor tholghtless boy. 1t will
be warning to him, too late, but
will not deter others boys from
venturing on like dangerous exploits.
Babies and boys, and men too for
that matter, should have guards
when bent on adventure.
The thing proper to do is not to
read homilIes, nor administer lashes
and lectures but put police officer
on duty at the depot, to restrain
reckless boys and protect needless
and thoughtless men.
The leg of the boy is loss that
the salary of a policeman can not
recompense. a policeman on duty
at this dangerous place may avoid
like recurrence, and in this the saIa-
ary will be well deserved.

FORAKER FOREVER-DOWN

The Majority Must Rule.

The sworn affidavit Of Mckay. yester.
| day, showing he had following of more
than one half the Republican voters ol
the county, all of whom had been de.
barred the privilege cf taking a part in
the proceedings of the most imprtant po-
ltical meeting of Republicans ever held
in the county, meeting that selects the
presidential county committe. the state,
the congressional and judicial delegates,
q me citing which, in effect, takes 'ulI, ABB
solute charge of the parry affairs. with
The ultimate view OF crushing out OF ex-
istence every Foraker admirer in the
county. The exhibition of the Foraker
stre6gth has created sensation that
shivers the harmony of the Ring.
Last night. in all the public places in
the town, crowds collected and excitedly
discussed the situation. Groups OF calm
est men gathered on the pavements and
counseled with each other Outrage"
"Scheme," Oppression" "Ring Rule"
"Bossism," Foul Play" and passionate
expressions of similar import showed too
plainly that Logan was in ferment, and
the pot was about to boil over.
The Court House bell rang. This was
call for action. The crowds thined out,
but from each group delegates were sent
to meet with committee, to devise
me ans Tor united county action.
We are not advised as to the plan Of
future proceedings, but it is whispered
around that the county will be can
vassed, a monster mass convention viii!
be called, and that the majority Of the
Republican voters of the county will
take IN hand the selecting of the dele
gates and name the committee to have
charge of the party affairs.
The Forakerites are fighters. A For
aker man will preside over the Republi-
can State Convention; the majority Of
Ohio delegates to the Minneapolis Ma
tlonal Convention will be Foraker's
friends; three -Iourths Of the Republican
voters of Hooking county are for For.
aker.
1t is not much to be wondered at, that
revolt will take place. The SENTINEL
will advise Its readers of what promises
to be the most sensa,ional event in the
political history of the Republicans of
this county.

the county this fall is certain.
Logan is Democratic town, and the
figures prove it. On the vote for town
ship trustee, which was not affe cted by
local ertanglement', and which is safe
basis to calcu late from, the figures are:
lst W. ID W. Sd W. 4th
Nixon, D., 10 ll3 80 90
Engle, R.. SO lol 66 81
Nixon's Democratic majority, 1876.
Take the vote ON constable, William
Green, D., the lowest vote of any town.
ship candidate, is 3s4. The vote for
John Westenhaver, the highest cast for
any Republican, is 277. Green's major
ity, l04.
Thus it is to be seen that Logan is
over one hundred majority Democratic,
and the chances ale that this majority
will be doubled at the next election.
We doubled at the spring election the
majority of fiftv last fall. Can we not
double it at the next election when great
principles are at issue and no local
troubles to disturb or distract the party2
