He is . sound Democrat but his body
bears no scars received in defence of De-
mocrsey.
Gormley is young and available. He re
sides in that part Of the county whore
most Of the Nationals exit. He could
unite the Democracy and the Nationals,
and be elected by 1900 majority. So
could Weaver. Weaver is hard wosker.
H is hands are brown with toll. His hon
sssy no one doubts. His family is among
the oldest in Pickaway county, and was
never any thing but Democratic. He can
give bail 81 ,ooo, 900 II required. He was
pushed into the canvass. He no lodges
felt n liberty to doubt the public pressure
snd the public feeling.
Trovingsr will run better with Weaver
on the ticket than with KaIr.
I am fearful of the defeat of both II
both are nominated.
This 10 not the year to take risks. The
Nationals hold the balance of power, and
even the Republicans. last year showed
themselves able to defeat our candidate,
for Sheriff and Probate Judge, while the
Nationals held aloof.
Twill support the ticket dominated by
the Democracy next Saturday, even il
Karr is on and Trovinger too, but can
not feel: confident that my vote will be
recorded on the side of victory.
It ought to be, but the public feeling is
too turbulent, and the decentralization OF
our party 10 too serious, to hope for any
thing like . big victory with Karr and
Trovinger.

Mr.. Gormley, Am informed is the
book keeper Of an old and wealthy coal
company and has been in their employ ai
least s or years. His Democracy is moi
questioned. His Knownothing enemies say
he lefs the Catholics and joined the Ma
sons for popularity. That secsarian coci
won't fight any more. He used to be game
but now he is only dung hill. A man.
religion or Masonry Is his own business
and NO body slse's. We are talking policy

Ed. PREss.--I wish to state . few fact
In relstion- to the actions Of Noah Kaz
last fall. Every body knew that Miohss
Crosby would be badly scratched at N
election and 10 Was necessary for him
| get all the assistance he possibly could
insure his election. Mr.. Crosby called o
Ksrr few days prior to the election an
: asked him TO assist him on the day of III
election. Karr said he would not do i
and didnt propose to be on the street.
Noah Karf has made thousands Of do
lars out Of the Democratic party. and M
: Crosby voted and worked for his election
Il is she duty Of every Democrat who hi
the interest Of his party At stake to vol
. against Karr. He is one Of the men ths
:. caused our defeat last fall. He cares notl
ing for any one except Noah Karr an
r has never done anything fot the party onl
when he was . candidate for Office and the
only for his election.
Y Let our watchwosd be: Place no bolts
!. on the ticket.
