Uit'er's Asp of last week, that monarch presents some addi .tional imaginary sins of ours in order to hide the infamy of his disgraceful tirade on Middieburg'a only industry. Afier being rebuked by all the enterprising citizens of the town, for the vitupera- tionaofthe Asp, he bends his knees and reluc tantly gives the factory stockholders and Mr. Schoch an idea what compulsory education is like. It required as much effort to say that, as it docs a thief to give up his ill-gotten booty. Oh! but it was scanty. Why did you not de vote that extra space to the factory instead of the editor of the POST? You charged the factory with having employ ed a few people at starvation wages. Why don't you tell your readers that the factory paid out almost SI 1,000 for labor in 18 months V You charged the managmcnt of the shoe factory with transactions that would give a highly colored hue to the tow n. Why don't you set that right ? You say the factory keeps children out of school. The P06T challenged you to name six. You did not name one. You gloried in the fact that the sheriff had charge of the factory. Why don't you set your self right on that score? You charge us with trying to get the Whitney Gun Works here. That is true. We accept the charge. Add to that charge five or six other industries. The people of Middleburg wish they could charge the Asp with doing only half that well. The Post tries to build up the town, the Asp tries to tear it down. Now, Mr. Pilgrim, you are trying to get out of the hole you dug for the Post and in to which you yourself fell. You have added one lie to another until you have no claim on the cre dulity of your readers. you for a dollar's worth of pacr. What claim can you have for a respectful hearing from decent people? This boastful judicial pilgrim now- claims he was born and raised on a firm, expecting by this to clear him self from the ignominy heaped upon himself in glorying in the downfall of the shoe factory. We hesitate lo make any personal a'lusions to ourself, but a letter written in the east end of the county was received at this office Saturday say ing : "In answering Pilgrim Kitter, do not over look the fact that you too were liorn and raised on a farm and have a better record for having into the Ixisoin of Caesar and fell upon his own to ferry you across the river Styx, be sure to aWa"?

Fair weather prevailed in Ohio yesterday for mu nicipal and township elections. The large vote for April Indicated more Interest than usual In these local con tests. This waa due to the fact that a full state ticket Is to be elected next November, as well as members of the legislature who will choose a successor to Senator Foraker. In a few localities legislative nominations were made by popular vote. None showed any oppo sition to Foraker among the Republi cans, and there was not enough ac tion to indicate any preference for John It. McLean, Tom L. Johnson or any one else as the Democratic favor ite for the senatorshlp. There was no election In Cincinnati. Mayor Flelschmann and the other Re publican city officials were elected one year ago for a period of three years. There will be no election at Dayton until next April, the contest in that city yesterday being for police judge only. Special Interest was taken in the contest at Columbus, where the Re publicans for the past two years have ! had all the city offices. Governor Nash 1 and former Congressman Lentz reside j at Columbus, and both took great in terest In the contest there. Demo cratic administrations were in control I at Cleveland and Springfield, where tne Republicans made hard fights to control the political machinery of a many cities as possible at the state election in November. Sam Jones made his race for the third term for mayor of Toledo, Independent of all parties, and on his golden rule plat form, and was elected by a good ma jority. Tom L. Johnson, Dem., de feated Akers, Rep., In Cleveland, and in Columbus John N. Hinkle, Dem., waa elected over Henry C. Taylor, Rep. There were Democratic victories In Delta, North Baltimore, Lima, St. Mary's, Ottawa, Continental, Upper Sandusky, Tiffin, Oibsonburg, McComb, Sandusky. Bellevue, Milton Center. Deshler, McClure, Wapakoneta, Cus tar, Holgate, Adelphos, Lelpsic, Zanes vllle, Hamilton, Norwalk, Marietta and Bucyrus. The Republicans carried Swanton, Kenton, Columbus Grove, Bellefontalne, Payne, Port Clinton, Prairie Depot, Weston, Liberty Center, Perrysburg, Bowling Green, Youngs town, Springfield, Flndlay, Dayton and Portsmouth. While the Democrata carried the large cities and some of the small' r places, yet the Republicans show slight gains In the state as a whole. Literature on request. MlDDLEBURGH MARKET.

One fixed the compen sation of state legislators at $1,000 per term and mileage, instead of $:: per day when the legislature is in session, as at present, and the other provided for an increase in the salary of circuit Judge in Bay county. The Democrats made a marked gain In Jackson, where their entire city ticket waa elected. The city went Republican last year. In Owosso S. D. Emery, Prohibition ist, was elected mayor, overcoming a Republican majority last year of 650. He was tbe only member of that ticket, however, who waa successful. In Detroit John B. Whelan. Republi can, was re-elected police Justlre, the only municipal officer voted for. Of the 17 school inspectors elected 11 were Republicana and 6 Democrats. Towns In which Republicans lead are Kalamazoo, Saginaw, Petosky, Grand Rapids, Paulding, Wauseon, Blooming dale and Norwalk. while Bryan. Wa pakoneta and Elmore go Democratic.
