EDITORS PRESS we see the call in your
issue of last week for Annual Meeting of the
Portage County Co. Agricultural Society, We
have heard considerable grumbling at the time
of and following the annual exhibitions as to-
the manner in which they were carried on.
few years ago when the rule was inserted re-
quiring an entrance fee of 10 per cent on cattle
heep and hogs it met with much disapproba-
ion, And when, last year. the rule was adopt
ed that where there is no competition by DIFF
ferent owners only 80 per cent. of the first pre-
MUM will be paid" another wall of disapprovai
was raised. We are credibly informed that a
| carload of cattle brought here for exhibition
last fall, were returned home without unload
| ing on account of that rule. Then there are
! those who think that the horse depart.
ment. together with the races, is being
made the leading feature. and all other inter
ests are being made subordinate to it.
! And there are numerous other fanlts to bt
found by those who wish to find them.
We are not writing this to say whether thes,
are faults which should be remedied or not. bu
to make suggestion to those who are grum
bling.
The management of the Annual Exhibition
and the rules governing them, are under tn
control almost exclusively. of the Board G
, Government which is composed of one directo
from each township. And we may say rigt
/ here that they do large amount of hard wor
and spend much time for which they receive
no thanks. More than one half of these direc
ors are.to be elected at the annual meeting ne1
Saturday. If any member of the Society fee
that the management has not been what
i should be. let him attend that meeting and us
: his influence to elect such men as will work fc
the reforms he thinks needful. At least do Mt
+ stay away and then" grumble." because thing
are not as you would like them. There shoul
be a large attendance at this meeting. maj
times larger than usual, Respectfully.

2 he schools are taking their accustomed hol-
liday vacation, and it is well, for the Whoopin 6
cough, the measles and scarlatina were deci-
mating them, especially the lower departments.
We are safe in saying that there has not been
for many years, time when so many have been
sick in our town, with the above named tronb-
les with the younger ones, the grippe has been
and still is having lively tussle with the older
ones, with no hope of let up so long as the wet
unwinter like weather continues.
Some time ago young man, while engaged
in unloading a barrel of cider at the home of the
editor of our local paper, unfortunately broke
his leg. The editor, as in duty bound. mention
ed the affair. but forgot to mention on whose
premises the accident occurred. leaving those
who were knowing to the affair to wonder
whether or not this omission occurred because
the omitter lived in a prohibition village and
whether or not had it happened on some other
premises than his own, this orgetfulness would
have occurred.

method taken by citizen of this place to

ludicrous were it not for the strong under cur
rent of deceit mingled with it. The citizen is
owner Of railroad pass between Chicago and
Cleveland. few days ago he was notified that
the transportation issued for him had been
called for by young man in Chicago. claiming
to be his SON, with request if correct to COM
municate with the Gen, Passenger Agent, Our
citizen Immediately potifed the agent to let the
young man have the ticket. it was all right
although at the time he got this word he knew
that the only son he had, little boy. was safely
at home.
The doleful lament of President Harrison
over the unqualified wickedness of that Michi-
gan legislature which require the election of the
Presidential electors by districts, is sad to con-
template yet it is an undisputed fact that the
method more completely represents, the voice
of the people than the method generally adopt
cd, and perhaps the lament is made more
mournful on the part of the President with his
knowledge of the fact that had direct vote by
the people prevailed at the last Presidential
election. his honorable competitor would be oc-
cupyipg the presidential chair instead of him
self HENRI.

What wondrous shafts of red and gold. the spires
Bid sweet good morrow to the westering sun;
Across the moor the lingering daylight dies.
And gathering mists of evening slowly rise;
The busy worlds at rest. for work is done.
Within the old gray homestead all is still.
And all living things alike seek welcome sleep
And man rests calmly. bearing naught of ill.,
Trusting in Him by whose Almighty will
Both day and night their varying limits keep.
So is it when life's sun is in the West.
And shadows of the future round US creep,
All peacefully we lay US down and rest.
Like tired children on a fathers breast.
For so He giveth His beloved Sleep HIN.
