The law concerning stray animals is
not as well known as it should be. SAYS
an exchange: If you take up a stray
animal you must, inside of ten days,
give notice to your township clerk,
who must make an entry of the same;
then you advertise the animal in your
paper, and sixty davs after such ad-
vertisement has appeared, il the owner
has not come forward you apply to a
justice of the peace to sell the animal.
He issues warrant to the constable,
who then gives ten days notice by
posters, and then he sells it, and you
get your pay for expenses. The PEN
atty for taking stray animal and not
giving notice is $5. and besides this the
owner can come upon your place and
take it away without paying you any
thing.

The editor of the JOURNAL was in
Tontogany on business last Tuesday
and met Pretty Rudulph, who claimed
to be en- route to Toledo to procure
flowers and ice cream for party to be
held at his house that evening. We
had some doubts of his truthfu.ness
and watched for him when he returned
at noon and discovered that instead
OF his having ice cream and flowers, he
had purchased supply of onions and
weinerwurst. If that's what they call
party ice cream and flowers at B. G.
we shall not be inveigled into accept
ing invitations to swell parties at the
hub.

New Court Housc.

Representative B. r. James, in ODE.
diehce to the petition OF 1000 taxpayers
from the 20 townships OF Wood county,
has introduced a bill authorizing the
: construction OF n new Court House AT
a cost OF not more than 100000. The
bill will probably become law us
there seems to be general impression
Throughout the county that the county
records are In danger, and the building
inadequate for the business of 20 pros
perous ana populous community.
The county Is out OF debt, does not owe
a dollar, and has tax duplicate of
J nearly twenty million. Auditor Will
son has made figures to show that q
Court House costing 100000 will cost
the taxpayers one per cent.-or 81 90 on
a valuation OF $1,000, which il paid in
70 years In installments will be AZ cents
every six months, including interest
certainly an Insignificant amount
compared with the satisfaction of
knowing that we have us fine n build
ing as our neighboring counties not
half so we'll off and that the records
are safe from a fire which il it should
occur now would leaye us not vistage
of title record.-Daily Sentinel.
An inspection OF the present court
house will convince any person of the
fact that new building is needed now,
and must be erected sooner or later.
The building was sham thing when
erected and was constructed as cheaply
as posslble-in fact just enough of a
building to make the appearance of
court house. 1t answered the purpose
very we'll for time but is now a very
''shammy" building for enc containing
such very valuable records.
The taxpayers Of this county are suf-
ficiently intelligent to know what is
needed by the county, and need no in
structions regarding their duty in
matters of this kind. Our only advice
would be for every taxpayer to
thoroughly post himself regarding the
conditions of the present court house;
acquaint himself with the facts regard
ing the safety of public records, also
the resources of the county and his
proportion OF the expense of erecting
a new building, and govern himself
accordingly.
The columns of the JOURNAL will be
open to our subscribers for free and
fair discussion of the question, but no
TRADES OF abuse on any person will be
and all letters must be
signed by the real name OF the writer.

The revolution in Hawaii, and the pe-
tition of the provisional government
asking for annexation to the United
States is question of much import
arce to this country and one which
should have mature consideration
Ihirty millions of the forty millions
OF Investments on the island are held
by this country and it would seem as
though the United States could not
allow such vast interests to come under
The control of England. There is also
$o,ooO,OOO debt on the government
which would be heavy load for the
United States to carry.
Naval officers are very anxious for
the annexation claiming it could be
made the Gibralter Of the Pacific. and
considering the numerous strings with
Which England is continuing to sur.
round the United States, it is quite
Important that the is. should not LET
England get away with us in the
possession OF SO important q point,
There seems to be diversity of opiu-
ion among the leading men of the
country regarding annexation or estab.
fishing protectorate over the island.

New regulations of the Ohio National

New regulations of the Ohio National
Guard require the officers OF all com
panies to adopt "a new uniform by April
1st. The only change is in the coat.
The material is the same as in the old
uniform, but notable difference is the
absence of brass buttons, mono of which
are visible. The edges of the garment
are bound in heavy black braid, and
the breast and sleeves are ornamented
with it. The sword belt is worn under
the coat, and the lett side of the latter
is split for the easy grasping OF the
sword. The collar band shows the
regiment.

GOOD THING FOR EVERYBODY.

A Populist paper from Missouri
come to us with the item, "Down
with monopoly and oppression and
mp with competition and prosperity"
The brother should re-read his polit-
ical economy. Competition never
brought prosperity. Competition is
war, and is destructive. Let us learn
from the trusts that not competition
but intelligent cooperation is the
best method of creating and distrib-
uting wealth-the way of prosperity.
Of itself monopoly is not oppres-
sive. You never hear anyone COM
planning of the extortion or injustice
of our postal monopoly. Monopoly
is good thing for all those who are
in 1.-THE trouble being that the
great majority are not benefciaries.
Now let us all get on the inside of
the monopolies just as all are inside
IN the postal system and there will
be no kicking against them. Monop-
olies are only oppressive when they
are used for private profit. All the
teaching of the age is against COM
petition. It increases the non-pro-
ducing class and adds cost with no
corresponding benefits. Does the
editor think that fifty stores, each
with its entire quota of expense, can
distribute goods as cheaply as one
store ? The public have been duped
for many years by the lie that "com-
petition is the life of trade !" but
thinkers the world over know 1T has
not scintillation of truth in it, even
IN this rotten wage-slavery system.

HEAVY SHIPMENTS or TRUCK.

On June 2nd THE CArcAsIAs IN
terviewed Capt. Hancock OF Allan
tic and North Carolina Railroad as
the movement OF truck along his
line. He said:
Our heaviest shipments nov are
Irish potatoes. 1 brought up to-day
5000 barrels filing 81 ears. while an
equal amount at least was shipped
by steamer from Newbefnc. The
pot..;o season began about the u ID
Of May aud was TO last about one
mouth"
Let Us see for q moment what this
means. If the shipments OF pota-
toes from Goldsboro to Newberne
for the month averages only from
COCO to 1000 barrels a day, 1t Will
make at least BOG, 900 barrels for the
season. Potatoes are now quoted
at from 90 to $500 a barrel, that
will be half million dollars gross
for potatoes alone. The cost OF
making and delivering barrel oil
potatoes to New York is about 81 -.
barrel. This will leave net
profit OF 81 90 barrel or $500, OOO
Now this estimate is for potatoes
alone and only from here to Ne"
Berne. If the same record is mads
on the Atlantic Coast Line and al
trucking points in the eastern part
of the State, the net receipts to tine
State will be millions of dollars. This
is Monmouth business and ye1
one that is conducted on the mos
haphazard principles at the vita
point, that is at the market point
II certainly cannot be much Longer
till truckers will organize, as they
should and must, and open an ex
change in New York, Boston, ant
Philadelphia for handling their pro
duce in systematic and bushes:
like manner. BY such system the
truck of North Carolina could b,
handled at cost OF not more thar
one or two per cent. while now i
costs anywhere from ten to twenty
per cent.
