THE Democratic Central Committee OF
Ohio have issued call for ten cent install,
ment Of corruption funds for the approaching

carry the State if the "neeiful' . is forthcom.

The party inaugurated their ten cent policy
in order to raise funds for yallendigham

ing nil and comfort to the rebels in arms.
Aud IT, p4rir s'ill stick to their anti.war
hnaneieuug tow that the war is over. and
regard that what was good for war times is
good alike for times of peace.
They might collect their Copperhead med,

patriotism to the admiring "faithtnln who

Death of EItz-Gresns HaIIsolr.

The author of "Marco Bozzsris," one Of our
greatest poets-Fitz- Greene Halleok-died last

the advanced age of fOurscore years. He passed

of Jacob Barker and was afterwards engaged
by John Jacob Astor, and was one of the ori-
ginaI trustees of the Astor Library Of New
York city. He has not been In active business
life since l849. HRlleck wrote poetry at an early
age, but few of his first effusions are now pre-
served to us. In the latter part Oh 1919 he wrote
his longest poem, Fanny, an Amusing Satire" {"
in the measure OF Byron's "Don juan" ON the
fashions, follies. and public characters OF the
day
In 1929 he visited Europe, and In 1877 pub
