I have been a reader of the Toledo Blade
for the last fifteen months and will venture
to say that a more radical Republican
sheet wus never published. There is nn
nrtlclo In it signed "A Looker-On In Mor
gnntown, Ky." He says there was a gath
ering down in Dixie, and every Democrat
in the country swooped down on the quiet
littlo village with tho old familiar yell of
twenty years ngo such as wo hoard from
the hordes that followed Morgan nnd Ben
nett. He said they used lauguage revolt-
ing, madly yelling for Jeff. Davis, cursing
the names of the Immortal Lincoln nnd
Garfield, claiming that what they had lost
at the point of the bayonet they had won
at the ballot box. At last, he claims, they
pulled down tho Blaine flag, Ac. He says
they did not come from the slunfs of the
Democratic party.
The Republicans are so completely
whipped that they are trying to incite
riot and bloodshed, and should be looked
after. Tho Blade cliargc3 the Democrats
with hard things. It calls them "bull
dozers" und "ballot-box stuffers." It says
"the daring deviltry of tlio domineering
Democratij patty of the South has no
bounds. They llvo on hate. They retain
their power by brutal force." This re

forty-four of tho best men in our valley

to charge us with all manner of cruelty. In

Col. A. D. Sccly, of our town, is put
forth by his numerous friends as candidate
for Sheriff of Columbia county. Now,
then, why shouldn't Berwick furnish a
Sheriff 1 For years Sheriffs and other pub
lie officers of the country have come from
almost every township outside of Berwick.
Berwick, ever sinco the origin of the conn
ty, has supplied no public officers, reaping
salaries and tho emoluments of tho county.
In tho name of justice, why shouldn't Ber
wick be allowed to furnish a Sheriff. Is
there any reason for it ? Why should all
the public officers come from outsldo of
Berwick? Col. A. D. Seely served gallant
ly In our late war, (Reg. 84, Col. S. M.
Bowman commanding.) A better selec
tion could not be made anywhere within
the precincts of tho county. He is popular
and well liked ut home, nnd has many
friends wherever known. Ho would make
a fine Sheriff, und would make a fine run.
If nominated, tucro is no doubt of his elec
tion. He would do honor to tho county.
Wo trust to see his name foremost as can
dldato for the Sheriffalty. We feel conn
dent he would be elected by a largo ma
jority. Kinney Adams is bound to be ahead. He

Write tor Your I.ocul Paper.
There is no more effectual and enjoyable
means by which young people can store
their minds with practical knowledge and
gain the power of giving expression to
what they know than writiug for tho press.
In writing for his or her lrfcal paper the
young student cultivates the power of ob
servation. Do not think that your literary
career is in writing elaborate articles for the
magazines or popular literary journals.
Wrllo for your local paper or for somo pa
per in your neighborhood or country that
lias tome literary character, giving the
news of your vicinity in the plainest lan.
gunge you cau command. Keep on writ-
ing for that paper. "As a regular corres.
pondent you will bo furnished with tho
necessary stationery or the postage at least
will be paid by the publisher and ono or
several copies will bo furnished you. It
your neighbor writes for the nearest paper
try another.
Accidents, robberies, fires, deaths, mar
riages, charities and cruelties are not the
only neighborhood happenings that are
worthy of being recorded. Tho close ob
server becomes tho successful writer.
There uro many things which, when prop
erly recorded, are of deep interest, though
the careless person scarcely notices them.
Ho who can writo down neighborhood
news and happenings in plain, spicy s ylo
without unnecessary words has a beautiful
accomplishment. He has tho gift of pleas,
antly imparting his knowledge to others,
and If he Is a school teacher ho will surely

his usual total disregard ot etiquette.
