This morning the Sabula mail
left this place at the usual time
but did not reach Lesterville on
account of the Middle Fork. He
turned around and started back to
this place. West Fork was not up
any when he started back and he
had reached the last crossing of
the river just east of town and
drove into the water when he was
met by a sudden rush of water
which amounted to almost a foot
and a half rise before he got his
team across. The water ran over
the hack and washed both mail
sacks out and a grip belonging to
Mr.. w. j. Lee who was a passen-
ger with Mr.. Barnes. AS soon as
they got out of the water they
went after the mail and grip which
were recovered about a quarter OF
a mile down the river.-CenterviLIe

The marked difference between
the Republican and Democratic
way of doing things was forcibly
illustrated in the opening of gu
circuit court this week. For tn,
past six years it has been the cus
tom OF the Republican circui
Judge to come dragging into tn
court room anywhere from 1880 t.
8 o'clock Monday afternoon, an
very little was accomplished tn
first day, notwithstanding tn
Jurors and witnesses were in at
tendance from nine O'Clock in tn,
morning. Last Monday morning
our Democratic Judge was in tn,
court room promptly at MIN
o'clock, by ten o'clock hat
charged the grand jury and tn
clearing of the docket began. W.
say this aptly illustrates the differ
ence between theE Democratic ant
Republican way. The one pose'
as the master and the other act
as the servant of the people. TIL
defeat Of the Republican candidat
for circuit Judge last fall mean
the saving of thousands an,
thousands of dollars to the tax
payers of this circuit.
