HE WIRE WORKS.

Br. bed and

Wire, Wown Fence,

Nails by the Ton.

Fifteen years ago I). M. Gregg. C. M. Crawford, W. P. Herron, and a few other individuals of this city, formed a company and began in a email way, with only two rnai:hin(-s, the manufacture ol barbed wire for fencing. Tho biiMiiess gradually increased as the demand for the product became m»p-e general. From tl-ie start this house, as others, wa3 hampered some by

tl litigation over the various patents in wire fenciug claimed by patentees Finally this was cleared away and the work of manufacture increased. Tho company bought a few a re of ground Bouth of the Junction, ran two railway switches to the sides of the buil-lings erected, bought the newest and most approved machinery and begun the manufacture of both barb'd and woven wi for fencing, and wire nails from an inch in length to the largest sige used. The business under the direct management of .Mr. O. M. Gregg has been satisfactory for Pome yearn pat°t to the stock-hold-ers. Nearly fifty men are now em ployed in the various departments, and shipments of wire fencing are now made to points as far south as exas and the Oklahoma country to the west. 1 lie machinery for making woven wire is very ingenious and at once attracts the attention of the visitors. The noisiest place, however, about the entire establishment is the department used lor making nails. It is impossible for conversation to bo carried on at all, and employees or visitors simply make signs when in want of information. The kegs for the packing away of the nails are made in an adjoining building, and the quickness with which a few Hat pieces of wood are transformed into a k"g is interesting.

The wire wortcs is an important and valuable interest to CrawfordsviHe. It brings money lere from sbroad. We only wish our city bad a do/,en such industries. We need them. They furnish employment to goodly number of rs s, and advance the general prosperity.

An Erroneous Statement. The Review charges the city authorities with having paid S6'2.50 for the shoeing of two horses of the Hre department last. year. This statement is about as near the truth us that conglomerate sheet ever gets -Journal.

Tnrc RICVIF.W obtained its information from one whom it supposed knew what ho was talking about, an individual high up in tho councils of the republican party. He was, however, probably one-half mistaken, as the bill'for shooing the horses one year was $'"'.00 oily. The Journal, however, even if aware of corruption or extravagance on lhA part, of city officials, has never had the courage to denounce it. The purchase of the "Trilby" road roller, ithout doubt a corrupt scheme, the construction of the Wabasli avenue bridge at a cost of gl2 OuO. the attempted sewer iniquity of a few months by which the tax-payers were to be bled to the tune of thousands of dollars, never received a word of condemnation from the Journal, and never will while there is a chance of a few crumbs of job printing and legal advertising from the city government. The dickering and traficintr in otlicial positions only a few weeks ago by the infamous gang of republicans and democrats alike, in the city government, did not move the

Journal to say aught against it solf interest. you know. THE Koviow takes as much pains in denouncing a corrupt democrat as in does a corrupt republican—the Journal does not. Its policy is to remain quiet ours is not, when anything adverse to the tax payers is iu contemplation.

Found fur the Plaintiff.

After twenty hours' deliberation, tlie j«ry in the celebrated Farley will caBP, at Lebanon, brought there on a change of venue from Hamilton county, round for the plaintiffs. The case, which has been on trial for four weeks, has attracted much attention. The late Mrs, Jennie Farley bequeathed her property to Mrs. Jennie Hawkins, her niece. Some time aftor the death of the testatrix, the husband of the legatee found the will in an old ice chest. Mrs. Farley died in June, 1895, and tho will was dated May 23. 1895. The witnesses to the will and the notary public are all dead. After it, was offered for probate the brothers of the testat rix attacked its genuineness. The case first came up for trial in tho Hamilton Court, but was abruptly terminated because of an ill-advised remark by one ot the jurymen. .. "v!
