that "by and by we hope that public opn-

WHICH SHALL WE ELECT AT OUR
SPRING ELECTION?

Wellington though one of the strongest
Republican townships in the county, has
always been liberal in giving local offices
to members of the Democratic party and
especially for the past few years, as the
were willing to be generous
in proportion to their strength, provided
it was consistent with, and involved no
surrender of principles. But while this
has been done, would it not be well to
stop and consider whether it is a wise or
judicious thing to do. Are there any
Republicans in Wellington who are viii
ling to vote for men for any office who
belong to party whose Representatives
arch-traitor and rebel, JEFF. Davis, and
have also tried to have that Benedict Ar
mold of this age, pensioned by govern
ment which he with others, have for
years tried to destroy, q man who is re-
sponsible for more human suffering than
any one who has ever lived on this cont:-
nents To pension the rebel soldiers
would not be a greater crime against
justice, or greater insult to the loyal
men of this nation, yet that is just the
very thing which the Democratic party
have tried to do. Shall we Repub-
,icans place any man in office to repre-.
sent US who votes and is identified with
party that makes no distinction be-
tween the vilest treason and the grand
est loyalty. Reason and justice alike
demand that henceforth we should de-
clare that Republicans alone shall have
offices If they are worthy and let US see
to it that none others are nominated. /.

Trust.

Few Christian believers constantly
bear in mind the promises, so as to be
lifted securely from the ruts of care, and
kept free from the anxieties that hinder
cheerfulness, spiritual growth and the
highest usefulness. II We could consider
what mere spcck in q lifetime are most
Of the burdens Of to-day; could remem-
ber that the vexstions and disappoint-
ments or Affections that distressed us at
such time and such q time-one year,
five years or ten years ago neither killed
us nor lasted forever, but were, with lit
tie or no intervention of our own, di-
verted from rs by the changing events
of Gods providence. how much worry it
would save US. And then again in the
long run how impotent has been the most
of our planning; how in this way and
that our hopes have been defeated, our
ambitions have come to nought. The
things we had looked for have not trans
pired; while on the other hand blessings
unexpected, mercies greater than our
faith have been granted, affiictions that
we had no power to avert have been
turned aside, and the darkest skies have
cleared to starlight or circled on to q
diviner day.
AhI to how many Faith has been
No evidence Of things unseen,
But dim shadow that recasts
The creed Of the Phantasiasts,
For whom NO Man of Sorrows died,
For whom the Tragedy Divine
Was but symbol and o sign,
And Christ phantom crucihed.

quote:
EAST Liverpool, Ohio bases her

with twenty-six kilns; seven white ware
potteries with twenty-seven kilns; three
&C. c. or cream color ware, the cheap
white ware used IN many hotels, with
eight kilns. two knob potteries with
three kilns; three decorating establish
ments-one connected with Knowles,
Taylor and Knowles pottery with three
kilns; one establishment manufacturing
encaustic tile with one kiln, and an ex-
tensive flint and spar mill, where flint
and spar are ground and prepared foI
use, with one kiln-in all seventy kilns,
many of them having capacity to hold
8. 500 to 9, 600 Pisces of ware"
Leading English potters say that Ohio
is making better ware than England ever
made or can make because we have bet
ter feldspar and better seggsr clay. The
latter viii stand much higher degree of
heat than any clay found in England, and
our feldspar surpasses theirs in color as
well as in every other material element.
Recent discoveries in decoration are to
be put in practice in the white ware

to hunt about for odd pieces of Wedge

Spring Elections.

MR.. EDrToR.-In your issue of two
weeks ago Republican" wrote in favor
of party candidates for village officers
Let me tell you tn at that strikes an old
line Democrat. 1t is claimed that in all
places where our party is in the ascend
ency we invariably put up men of our
own party. Admitting this to betrue,
does it follow that it is right?
The Democratic party is an old party
The rhaxims of the fathers have come
down to it from generation to generation,
have been made more and more binding
by convention after convention enactipg
precedent after precedent until we can
not throw off the burden of this, to US,
unwritten constitution. These maxims
contain many errors, but are so engrafted
in the work and life of the party, SO in

sacre and true, that while the best of
us see and know they are wrong-the
many, the mass, believe in and follsw
blindly the leaders who never tire of
shouting the party whoop, "To the VIC
tors belong the spoils"
Let us here in Wellington, Republic
ans as we'll as Democrats adopt the more
humane and sensible plan of the Golden
Rule which in politics develops into mi
nority representation. And how, ask,
can we get the minority representation
better or easier or fairer than for all of
us, Republicans, Democrats and Flost 70
to meet in common caucus and select the
best men for the places regardless of
party. 1t is conceded by all. that our
town has been well kept in the past. Our
councilmen have been efficient and trust
worthy. Perhaps the reputation our
town has for cleanliness and general
thrift above other towns may be due in
part il not wholly to the fact that party
lines have been ignored. No one will
deny that we Democrats have always in
the past done our part in the burden
som work of the council or of any other
Board where we have Misrepresentation.
We have even supplied a man to ill the
Mayors place when for any reason the
present incumbent failed to put in an
appearance. Let US meet then as citizens
