The Ohio Democratic Convention.

The corpse refuses to be buried. The
Ohio Democrats met at Columbus yester-
day in stronger force than usual, and re-
solved to keep on their feet. The future
can have nothing worse in store for them
than the past. The "time honored banner
of Democracy" is once more unfurled
With marked fitness the platform begins
with illusions to the party, and ends with
the word ruin.
The ticket is headed by William Allen,
of Ross County. He is q native of the
State, but is little known to the present
generation. Rummaging among the an
nails of Congress, we find that he was
member of the House of Representatives
from 1888 to 1885. Forty years ago, he
was ''rising politician" Two years af.
ter he left the House, q lucky accident
sent him to the United States Senate,
where he remained twelve years, and was
colleague of Thomas Corwin He be-
longs to antiquity. The stream of events
since he was an active politician has wild
ened into an ocean. The slavery agita-
ton, the war of the rebellion, and recon
struction have come and gone since his
retirement, and now the railway issue is
upon us. For almost q quarter of centu-
ry he has been in retirement. The NOM
ination was worthy the Bucks County
Democrats, provided those slow coaches
are still voting for jackson.
The other candidates are quite unknown.
The platform contains nine resolutions.
1t is a study for political geologists, be.
longing as it does to distant period in
the country's history. All its thoughts
are " Capitalization" irredecmable cur
rency," " tariff" subsidy " and estate
rights" The only approach to modern
things is a condemnation of Credit Mo-
bilier and the salary grab, and approval of
the principle of arbitration as applied to
industrial strikes. TO all appearance the
convention never heard of the demand
for cheap transportation. That is a live
issue, and of course a convention of fossils
would not touch upon it,
a speech was made by Senator Thur
man. He assured the convention that he
owed everything to the Democracy. Upon
its success altogether depends the veal
of the country, he said, meaning, doubt
less, that unless the party should carry the
Legislature this fall he himself would
be " bounced out of the Senate next
winter

THE Santa Barbara (Cal) grapevine
measures four feet four inches in circum-
ference, its branches being supported by
fifty-two trellises, having for q number of
years produced annually from five to six
tons, or from 10000 to 10000 pounds of
grapes II is estimated that during the
last sixty years its total yield approxi-
mates the enormous product of half q
million pounds of grapes, which, at five
cents per pound, would amount to $685.

A man at Castleton, VT, blew worm

after four days, entered the chrysalls state,

that fly had suddenly entered the per

The "Independent" Farmers MOve-
ment.


THERE is something significant in the
fact that in the late Republican Conven-
tion held at Bloomington. there were
present as delegates large number of
the most extensive landholders and pro-
ducers to be found in Illinois. The
chairman of that convention counts his
acres by the thousands, and is more di-
rectly interested in the solution of the
great question of railroad transportation
than any other individual in the State I;
while the Hon. w. M. Smith, of Lexing,
ton, is perhaps the most extensive stock
raiser in Central Illinois. These gentle
men, with hosts of others there present,
having grievances to be redressed, wrongs
to be repaired, and rights to be respected,
were sagacious enough to refuse to aban-
don their political principles and re-
nounce their fealty to the Republican
party, at the bidding of those whose only
mission is to Iend that party asunder.
They knew too well that to torsake an
organization which had already accom-.
plished all that had been accomplished,
and all that could be accomplished in the
nature of restrictive legislation to protect
the interests Of the farming classes, would
be not only ungrateftIl, but extremely dis
astrous. They knew that the evils com
planned of, and justly complained of, by
the agricultural classes, must find their
remedy inside of the party organization
which had already inaugurated and
prosecuted the warfare upon the monopo-
lies

tions which have been held in this State

POPULAR FALLACY AND DECEPTIoNs.--
1t is an infirmity of man to cling to the
teachings of past generation, and to stub
bornly resist the light of reform and pro-
gress. Health-reform and Temperance
growth are jealously watched over by the
Poison Bitters compounders. One great
prevailing deception of the present age
Is the impression that every human biped
of either sex must be stimulated, and the
poisoned chalice is labeled Medcated
Bitters," the better to palliate their use
and prolong the epidemic. One Of the
most jealous workers to cure this malady,
DIR. JOSEPH WALKER, Inventor and Pro-
prietor of the famed CALIFORNIA VINE
GAR BrTTERs, believes in making Bitters
that are "true medicine" and advises the
sick man to swallow draught that will
wash out the Leprosy of his disease. In
this faith he is steadfast, and his VINEGAR
BITTERs, though contradiction to the
general character of all other Bitters, are,
as great success and Life VitaJiser, evil

PERRY DAVIS PAIN KILLER. This unpar-

mails of its wonderful efficacy in removing
pains, than any ether medicine ever offered to
the public. And these testimonials come
from persons of every degree of intelligence,
and every rank of life. Physicians Of the
first respectabiity, and perfectly conversant
with the nature of diseases and remedies, re-
commend this as one of the most effectual in
the line of preparations for the cure Of

FRANKLIN gave excellent advice to peo-
pie who desired success in life; and yet
his rules were by no means infallble. A
man may, by industry and economy, ao-
cumulate large amount of property, and
in the end he may lose it. 1t is one thing
10 make money, and quite another to keep
it. There is no doubt that a life iRsur-
ance policy in a good company is a good
investment in the majority of instances.
The money is paid when the family most
need it, and it is usually beyond the reach
of creditors. We do not hesitate TO re-
commend the New York Life Insurance
Company as one of the strongest and best,

may be kept dry and wholesome The
floor should be tight on a little decline,
and kept Uttered with absorbents. In
the construction of pens there is general
fault in the way of having them too low
between joints, most of them being not
over five feet, when there should be no
less than seven, so that a man can stand
erect in them. We have seen many ex-
pensive pens having this fault and the
swine therein absolutely neglected on
account of the back aching work
of cleaning the different sections out
Every sty should have good yard at
one side, so that the swine may get at
the earth, but they should not be allowed
to run therein at will, nor should the
cleanings of the pen be thrown into the
yard to be mixed with the soil by the
stamping and roofing of the hogs,
for ii is one of the most valuable ma
nures that can be produced upon stock
farm.
The farmer who makes most money
from pork raising, is the man who not
only is careful in the selection of breeds,
but particularly careful to have good CON-
modious pens and give the swine all the
attention required to make them grow
and lay on the fat rapidly. When we see
fattening hogs in rail pens with the
earth for a floor and the sky for a roof,
our opinion is at once formed as TO the
chances of that farmer to prosper, and
they are decidedly unfavorable.
