The Congressional Candidates.

The Congressional Candidates.
On the fifth page Of this paper
will be found the speech Of Hon. H.
B. Strait, accepting the COMPRESSION
al nomination from the republican
convention: and the letter OF Hon.
E. T. Wilder, accepting the same
position from the democratic con-
ventlon of this district. We pur-
pose]y place these together, that
they may be read and compared,
and correct opinions be formed Of
their authors from the views here
presented.
MIR. Straits speech is a plain,
clear exposition of his views, with
out evasion or eoncealment. He
first pledges himself to devote him.
self to the faithful discharge Of the
responsible duties of the position, in
case he is elected. He next ap-
proves Of the presidential and vice
presidential candidates Of the re-
publican party, and Of the policy Of
the party without exception OF
reservation, and then porceeds to
explode the democratic pretensions
to reform. In concluding, he mod
cstly refers to his own official con-
duct and repeats his thanks and
pledges. There is a manly tone
pervading the speech, which must
strike even the casual reader. It is
not the studied production of an
unprincipled politician, but the sim
cere expressions Of man who con-
scientiously intends to do his duty.
Judge \Vilder's letter is also a
very readable document, and a very
peculiar one for candidate to ut
ter. He begins by frankly telling
lis that his tastes and habits disin-
cline him to political life, and that
he is only {; candidate because of
the opportunities Of his friends.
This forces us to conclude, either,
that the affairs of the country have,
IN the Judges opinion, been as ably
managed without him as they prob
ably would be with his aid, or that
he has not sufficient patriotism to
induce him to sacrifice his personal
convenience for the sake ofthe pub
lie good.
But he yields to the importuni-
ties Of friends. Is the duty he owes
to these friends greater than that
due to his country? 1t seems so,
for it is these which induce him to
enter the political arena. although
he had been previously convinced
"that the country demands for
places of trust others than mere pol
iticians. If he possessed this
knowledge, ought he not, as pub
lie spirited and patriotic citizen to
nave come forward voluntarily in
compliance with this demand?
Is he the man who should be en-
trusted with an influential and i'm
portant position in perilous times,
who must first be dragged out OF his
retirement by opportunities of his
friends, in order to induce him to
aid in saving his country? Is this
man, whose "tastes and habits Of
thought have little in harmony with
political life," the one to effectively

original color, avith the gloss and
freshness Of youth. Thin hair is
thickened, falling hair checked, and
badness often, though not always,
cured by it's use. Nothing can re-
store the hair where the follicles are
destroyed, or the glands atrophied
and decayed. But such as remain
can be saved for usefulness by this
application. Instead Of fouling the
hair with a pasty sediment, it will
keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off,
and consequently prevent badness.
Free from those deleterious SUBJ
stances which make some prepare
lions dangerous and injurious to
the hair, the Vigor can only benefit
but not harm it. If wanted merely

The beautiful weather for the past
week seems to have inspired our citizens
with new vigor.
Hon. III. r. Austin, Director of the d.
d. S. E. R. r., has just returned from
Dayton. He informs us that the people
there are in high spirits and feeling well
over the road, and that the work is pro-
crossing in satisfactory manner.

trade last week.

The close of Winfield Scotts school on
Saturday las t, was more than an ordina-
ry occasion of the kind; the attendance
was very large, and the declamations re-
hearsed by the little folks were excellent.
Winfield did his utmost to please all.
He seems to enjoy his profession as well
perhaps as did the old General his mill
tary life.
We had quite an interesting time on
Saturday evening. caused by the mar
riage Of Mr.. Hubert Guynn and Miss
Anna Peppers, of Wellston. The boys,
after the style of twenty years ago"
rendered the night hideous with their
bells and yells, until keg Of beer silenc-

We noticed Mr.. James A. Aleshire at
our place on Saturday. We do not
know whether he is looking out a site
to practice law, or whether some other
attraction is drawing him, but we think
it is the other attraction, as Jim seemed
to be very inquisitive about some of the
fair sex of Wellston, and remained in
our village over Sunday. and attended
church.
