Northwest: The graveyard trus tees met as stated in my last and exam ined the grave where the remains were found. They still found the coffin and the remains there, but whose they are they know not. It is sail that last summer in excavating a grave for George Cham pion a co 111 n was struck and in place of digging another grave they took the old -coffin and put it in the place where found. Whoever dug tbe grave must have been lazy or a barbarian, or he would have cov ered the coffin up aguin, for there is room enough in the yard. There is no excuse for such work. J. Nischwitx.

Noribwcmt: In tbe further dis cussion of moving au old established pub lie highway from practical ground for a good wagon road between Damascus and IbeGearing bridge over tbe canal, a dis tance of over one mile, to build a new road along and nnder the bank ol aaid canal (as understand tbe petition) driving the public travel from a good road Into a con stant mud bole, as wonld be when becom ing a public highway, by the seepage of canal water through the bank which Is navoidable, tbe truth of which la too plain to need argument to any mind or re flection, and tbe only point urged for this removal is tbe fear that nature may get on Irolick and renew the times of Noah and takeaway a bridge over Turkey font creek at the Showman farm where but one has ever been disturbed by flood, and that too several feet lower than the present abut ments for tbe new bridge, and to put the matter beyond poradventure these abut ments can be raised one or two feet higher at a trifling expense to the county before tbe bridge is put on and still be perfectly practicable for public use, while on the o. ti er hand will a single individual undertake to maintain, the height of absurdity, that good dry road lor public tiavel can be had at the foot and in Immediate proxim Ity to any bank where water is always seeping out, much Irs, In close proximity to the canal bank or at the foot of any res- orvolr of water; a proposition so plain as this ncods no time for reflection when the mind is once called to the fact, and those who have placed their names to such petition without reflection, it is thoir right, and their duty, as citizens, to correct any error they may have unwittingly made, when convinced of such fact. Now, besides the inconvenience of the public being crowded into a necessarily muddy track under this canal bank sought by the proposed change and the large additional cost to the county in these new constructions, there is still another point touching the rights of individuals and stepping on legal grounds to be con sidered in this connection. Here is a large farm owned and occupied to be deprived of this public highway by such removal which was purchased at an appreciated price with special reference to this public road coming toit, and all the larm buildings erected with the same con sideration immediately contigious to this road now proposed to be vacated and shut them out from the world by removing this bridge as proposed by said petition, de stroying a purchased, and paid for right, with a reasonable expectation that it would remain at their door forever. Let me ask any man that placed his signature on that petition had he been the party to have been deprived of this right in being shut out from the world, would he then place bis name on that paper? Most clearly no! Then if not, can he place himself upon tbe moral standard of doing unto his neigh bor as he would that his neighbor should do unto him. Morality is the foundation of all law, and the intention of legal jus tice. Now how does this case sum up? 1st. We commit a moral wrong by ask ing to deprive our neighbor of what we would not deprive ourselves under the same circu msta nces. 2d. There is no proof or reasonable sup position that any body is to bo benefitted by this departure. 3d. It is a clear proposition that a large expense must be incurred to the county by granting the prayer of said petition. 1th. That tbe public travel along that road will be discomoded if crowded up to tbe foot of the canal bank where a constant seepage of water is going on the year round. 5th. There is no merrit whatever in the proposed change and only a damage to be experienced in every point at issue. Taxpayer. Liberty Center, O., Feb. 27, 1882. Ed. Northwest: The question of changing the bridge (known as tbe Sbo man bridge) across Turkey foot creek at that place, sems to have awakened oppo sition with those directly interested. I notice an article in the colums of the Northwest from "Taxpayer." Now, there is no doubt but "Taxpayer" was one of the signers of the petition for for the removal of said bridge a few rods above to the culvert; but, circumstances has changed and so has "Taxpayer." "What a difference it makes whose ox is gored." The change deserves the careful attention of our County Commissioners and hgures will show that $2,900 can be saved by the removal and fixed the Same as the culvert bridge at the Vocke Distil lery. It is true the bridge is on the ground at Turkeyfoot, but it belongs to the Smith Bridge Co. and not to t he county, so states one of our Commissioners, which is reli able information. The Smith Bridge Co. asks $2,500 for said bridge. A bridge for the culvert like the one at the Distillery can be bought for ?800. It will take?l,000 to repair theabutt- ments and there is the grading up to the abuttments, say in all (in tbe old location) ?4,000 at the very least. We have good responsible men who will take the con tract of the grading at the culvert for 300. Now, 8 and 3 are 11 and that taken from 4,000 leaves the heavy burdened tax p ay- ers of our county $2,900 by the removal Not only that, but it saves to the travel ing public something like a quarter of a mile each way the public interest must not be sacrificed for private purposes. What we ask is that the interest ofthe groat body of tax payers shall be protected against any unnecessary expenditure of tbe peoples money. It is true it will not be as convenient for what is known as the Showman-Heller farm, but if pub lic interests is to be sacrificed for private purposes we know of several farms in the county that needs bridges. Serve us all alike. And, furthermore, In the old loca tion the bridge Is washed away every two or three years for the last twenty years to our own knowledge, but in the new loca tion referred to that danger will be forever stopped.
