On Trial.

AT New Lexington Ohio the
trial of John Underwood, charged
with killing Marshal Koon, of New
Straitsville, is in progress. The
shooting occurred while Underwood
was in an intoxicated condition and
while the marshal was attempting
to arrest him. Underwood escaped
arrest and fed to this side of the
river, where he was located by Off
GERS Foglesopg and Smith, and
afterwards captured by Constable
Fogelsong, who turned him over to
the Sheriff at New Lexington. a
big reward was offered for his cap
ture, which the Ohio Sheriff is now
trying to beat Foglesong out Of

GOOD ADVICE
Which is as Applicable to Point Pleas
ant, as GallipOlis.

Which is as Applicable to Point Pleas
ant, as GallipOlis.
We clip the following sensible
advice from the Gallipohs Tribune.
It is as applicable to this town as it
is to Gallipolis; and we hope our
citizens will heed it:
'From all our business and trades
people, merchants and manufacture
ers, we receive the information that
the prospect for good business
this year is better than it has
been for two or three years. What
we most want in this city is, for
everybody to hang together, pull
together and have a common inter
est in the prosperity of our city.
-Bon't spend a nickel abroad that
can be spent at home. Build up
your resident workers, merchants
and manufacturers and every home
industry. II is an established fact
that there are but two ways of max
ing money in town or city-either
off of the miseries or the prosperity
of your fellows. Choose the pros
perity side. You will find it so
much more agreeable, so much more
general and diffsuive. You can't
help others TO get along without
receiving the return that you covet
for yourself"

The Rrnrest Of Rnttles.

The bravest battle that was ever fought,
shall tell you where aud when2
On the maps OF the world You viii find it not
Twas fought by the mothers or men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
With sword or nobler pen;
Nay, not with eloquent word or thought
From mouths OF wonderful men.
But deep in a walled up woman's heart
OF woman that would not yield,
But bravely, silently bore her part
Ioi there Is the battle field.
No marshaling troops, no bivouae song,
No banner 10 CLEAN and wavei
But oh. these battles, they last so long
From babyhood to the grave.

Good Ronds

For several years there has been
great deal of talk and agitation
over the subject of good roads, and
various measures having this end in
view, have come up for considera-
ton before the people. A carefully
prepared bill should be presented TO
our next session of the legislature,
having this end in view, and one
that is deserving of success, is that
plan which will provide that the
tire OF wagons or carts carrying
loads of ton or more shall not be
less than four inches in width.
There have been a variety of sug-
gestions offered as to methods best
to adopt to bring about the improve
ments of highways, but as most of
them were thought to involve addi-
tional expense by way of taxes,
they have been violently opposed
by the people in the country, who
are really to be benefited.
Every one who drives, appreci-
ates the fact that the ruts which
makes the roads rough result from
heavy loads dragged in narrow
tired wagons which cut deep into
the soft earth, leaving a mark not
easily effaced, and which, when a
few loads, have passed over it, be
comes practically permanent. 1t
has also been demonstrated that
heavy rollers are among the best
road making machines. If this bill
is presented and becomes a law, as
it should, then every heavily loaded
wagon will be of itself a roller, i'm
proving instead of destroying the
highways. The wide tired wagons
are as easily drawn, and little if any
more costly than the present style.
With the introduction OF wide tires
for lumber wagons, and all wagons
for general use upon the roads,
road rutting would be materially
lessened, if not wholly prevented
This bill would not be without op
position, because it is very difficult
to find any bill that will suit every
body. The adoption of this meas
ure, however, would be a decided
step in the right direction.

FREE COINAGE OF
SILVER.

The free and unlimited coinage of
silver, the product of American mines,
at the old ratio of 10 of silver to of
gold, is the only solution of and
remedy for the disturbed and unsatis-
factory condition of trade, manufac-
ture and general business of the coun-
try. The surreptitious act of 1873,
divorcing silver and gold in our none
tary system, was a crime of untold
magnitude. 1t was the rankest kind
of class legislation in favor of the
wealthy against the producers of
wealth, and hostile to the prosperity
of the United States. 1t was an act
oftreason because done at the instance
of a European syndicate and for bride
money, giving aid and comfort to
our country's enemies. To shield
the guilty parties, the well authenti-
Gated facts, often published, have been
vigorously denied.
The Enquirer viii continue to ex-
pose this objectionable crime until
right and justice are done the people
by the full restoration of silver to its
old companionship with gold. We
need the assistance of tie people in
disseminating the truth, to-Fhich end
we invite all in your seleS5on of pa

For several generations the mass
es of the American people left their
financial policy entirely to their
party leaders. They made no
secret of the fact that they did not
understand finance, and the ques-

generally of a sectional OF sentiment
tai character. All this has been
changed in the past few years.
