which may follow. With those who
know you as | do, you will stand
acquit of intending wrong to the Com
monwealth; but how many will care,
wnen the evil days come, to seek out
the facts, and give a sedate, judicial
verdict on them2
1t is my opinion that no fairer
election was ever held in the State
than that of November last; and il an
examination were made into the de-
tails of any of the general elections Of
the past twenty years, more material
and vital irregularities would be dis
closed, than have been, or can be
discovered in the one now under pre-
.tence of investigation. This is the
opinion of eighty per cent, of the
people of the State, and your knowl-
edge of the character, courage and
strong sense Of justice native to the
glorious manhood of this State, en-
ables you to know how instinctively
they discern the right Of a matter, and
and how inevitably they avenge the
wrong.
1t is distinct disapproval of the
policy of those who have assumed to
lead in the present unfortunate con-
dition of affairs, that l take my stand
with the party, and while l, , ith the
party, may, and in all probability will
go down in the next general election
in defeat, because of the unwisdom
OF those who held the reins, | want
the consolation of knowing that l not
only did what / could to avert such
party disaster, but as citizen, did
that which before God and man | be-
lieved to be in accordance with the
laws of the country, the will Of the
people, and the demand OF patriotism.
| am Truly and respectfully,

A few of our citizens met in the


Office of w. &C. Chumlea Monday
night where Col. c. Hawkins, Of
Ohio, addressed them in regard TO
the Black Diamond R. r., which has
been planned by Col. Boore, of the
same state. Capt. w. H. Henry was
elected chairman and w. c. Chumlea
and Capt. Henry elected as delegates
to the convention at Knoxville
Wednesday of this week. Sam. Ever
EFT and Robt. M. Magill were elected
as alternates. The proposed road is
to run from point in Kentucky,
through Knoxville to Port Royal, or
Charleston, S. c. The most direct
and practical route leads directly
through Maryville and it may be that
if proper inducements are offered it
will come through here, although the
route as now planned follows the
Tennessee River; very much farther
and at the same time one with no su
perior advantages. In fact it would
seem that this is the better route from
the fact it is shorter haul and Sc
cures trade from Slate and Iron fields
not reached by any other road. Also
a vast amount of timber trade would
come to the road by this rout which it
could not hope to get by following the
one now marked out. We have not
heard from the meeting at Knoxville
up to the time Of going to press so
cannot give an account this week.

resenting the Piqua School Furniture

been County Supt. of Public lnstruc-
ton of Green County and is reliable
and competant man. He has been
prominent in the politics of our State
and had H. Clay Evans been allowed
to take the seat to which he was elec.
ted, Mr.. Wright would have stood {
good chance Of filling the position now
disgraced by Frank Smith. We wish
it might have been so.

To Certain Subscribers.

In February last we mailed state
ment to certain subscribers who were
owing us eight dollars or more on the
REPORTER subscription list, requesting
early payment and notifying them that
unless payment was made at an early
day we should be obliged to place the
bills in the hands of an attorney for
collection.
We have delayed taking this step in
order to give subscribers who owe us,
every reasonable opportunity to pay
without additional expense. Some have
availed themselves of this delay and have
paid us the sums due, but by far the
larger number have paid no attention to
our request and we are, therefore, obliged
to take further measures to collect sums
of money honestly our due and which we
greatly need.
We therefore advise all the delinquent
subscribers TO ,ohom this extra notice has
been mailed, that unless they adjust their
Indebtedness to US, on or before October
1st their accounts will be left with an
attorney for collection. 1t is for the in
terest of these subscribers to settle these
bills 10Th us. We can do better by you
than lawyer can and save you good
money.
Do not neglect to take advantage of
this offer and by such neglect loose
dollars that you might s,ve.

Newspaperdom, trade journal, has
the following with reference to a gentle
man formerly of Skowhegan, who will
be remembered as the first editor of the
Argus: "lf money will make a success
full paper, 1t is evident that Mr.. Douglas,
the shoe manufacturer of Brockton,
Mass, means to make his Times Il
success. He has just appointed Mr.. w.
r. Buchanan, formerly of the Woon-
socket Or. Call, manager, at re-
ported salary of $1,000 per year for
three years, with bonus of 20 per cent.
of the net profits, if he can show any.
This is a pretty good contract for Mr.
Buchanan, who must prove himself an
exceptionally good manager to earn
such salary in city like Brockton."
