from men of excellent technical train

OBSERVATIONS.

How long, oh, how long, must
we endure the abominable service
of the Valley electric line" is a ques-
ton the people are now determined
to have answered, the first step in
that direction being a petition to
the Public Utilities Commission.
Speaking about the high price
of potatoes, Mr.. Thomas Franey
asked the Journal if we thought
the U. S. senator's and congress
men would include spuds in their
annual spring distribution of
garden seeds. What do you think
of that? Nobody but a banker
would ever have such ideas in his
head. 1t is not so bad after all.
The government would be hand
ing out something of real value in
such a case and that is more than
they are doing with their cheap
grade of seeds.
1t is said that the improvement
of Front street will cost $4,000
more in 1917 than it would have
cost in 1916 on account of the in
crease in cost of material, etc,
and in view Of this fact somebody
has said, "Why not wait until the
war is over?"
"To pave, or not to pave" is
the question! Whether it is bet
ter to give the Maumee Valley R.
& Il. Co. a new franchise, as they
like it, in order to induce the COM
pany to move it's track into the
center of the street and pay for
eight feet of the paving, or to
Leave the track where it is now
located and refuse to grant a fran
chise unless the interests of the
people of the village are given
due and proper consideration is
one of the questions in which our
citizens are now interested and in
which THEY WILL HAVE A
VOICE even though it be neces-
sary to again resort to the power
full I. & R. law to secure their just
demands.
