DIED.

KRIDER-0f Diabetes, Sept 18TH 1880, in Tus
carawss township, George Krider, aged 90 years
months and q days.
Mr.. KrIder was born and always lived In Tus'
oarawas township, and for a period Of nearly
thirty years he lived very consistent Christian
life. As man he was very highly esteemed by
all who knew him and was endeared to his
friends and neighbOrs by many acts Of kindness,
A very large Concourse OF people followed him
to his last resting place, He was an affectionate
husband and indulgent parent, and his wife and
two children deeply mourn his loss. But why DO
you mourn dear friends, he lives in the sunlight
of Him whom he loved and is waiting to vel
come you to that other shore where parting is no
more.
Yes we know that he liveth
Forever with the Lord,
For It's him that giveth
Life everlasting in his word.

EX-SENATOR STANLEY MAT
THEWS

w -
Spoke for Garfield and Arthur in Schae-
fer's Opera House on Tuesday evening.
The attendance, we learn, WAS only mod
crate. AS T. G. Meyer was addressing
the Hancock and English club the same
evening in Koons's hall, we were enga'
ged in listening there to most able ar
raignment of the Republican party, and
hence did not hear Mr.. Matthews.
We have known Mr.. Matthews as a
political man for many years, He began
his career as a Democrat; was sent to
the Legislature from Hamilton county as
Democrat Topped over to the Repub.
licans, and worked in the traces there
till the Greeley movement in 1872. Mr.,
Matth ws was temporary chairman OF
the Liberal Republican convention held
at Cincinnati May lat, 1872. In his
speech on taking the chair, he said
"Oae hing which l prize most in my
self as a treasure, to be guarded and de-
Tended; and to witness the spectacle of it
IN the breasts of other men, is this: that
the time has come when it is the voice
of an exceedingly large and influential
portion of he American people, that they
are determined that they aOiU no longer be
dogs 70 '''ar The COLLAR of oRorly.*"
"Ihe cry came up four years ago,
and it was thought an auspicious
omen-the coming of that time
we have looked for in vain
when it was, LET us have peace"
But we have not had peace. Look at
the South to-day. What spectacle we
have The example of 80 called civil
governments bankrupting the communi
ties. They affect to represent power
usurped by stranger, and not conferred
by the voice of the people, and not for
the purpose of restoring he prosperity
of those battle grazed fields; but for cor
ruptly enriChing the men who think
that power and Office belong to them as
property, and not as q trust. And so,

Judge Matthews's effort to put off the
"dog collar" in 1872 was not fully sue

keep it on others and to prevent a res
