AHartRowed Down.

A Hillsboro special of the 18th ult.
has this to say of the prospects OF Ex-
Lieutenant Governor Hart for Con-
gress in the Twelfth District:
1.-THE Congressional campaign is
becoming warmer daily in this district.
Governor Hart con cedes that the chan
ces are against him. He has fierce
opposition within his own ranks, and
several Republican papers refuse to
cease prodding him with his record.
His attempts to discuss temperance
have been greeted with such derision,
and little incidents in this peculiar
branch of his character have been SO
mercilessly exposed, that he is now
combining himself to the grand and
ancient achievements of the Republi-
can party, without reference to lts
present intentions. The latest iron
that has been thrust into Alphonso's
heart is the desertion of the Ripley
Budget and it's full espousal OF the
cause of Hon. L. r. Neal. 1t says:
Nothing would so strongly tend
to build up and strengthen the Repub
lican party of this District as the over
whelming defeat of Mr.. Hart, and al
such men whose trade is office, and tc
obtain which no sacrifice of principle
or propriety is too great, and no means
too debasing or corrupt
"Os Mr. Neal, it says: He is no
Hopper, but a principled, consistent
leader in his party, one whose private
and public character is away above
suspicion. We believe that in espous
ing the cause of this gentleman we ar
doing what is proper in the interest o
fairness, temperance and morality. NJ
better candidate in our judgment ha
been offered for many year.
1.-The Budget is but another instanc
of the genuine Republican press tina

IT ia an old saying that "a lie we'll
stuck to is as good as the TRUTH and
our young friend of the Rep. Dem.
seems to appreciate the value of the
saw, for he continues to reiterate in
mere change of language that the De-
mocracy are in favor of free whisky
and no Sunday" We again assert
that there is no such issue between the
porties in this contest, and no asser-
tions of Messrs. Missar and Eshelman
can create such an issue. The asser-
ton that the liquor dealers of Gin
cinnati have alone contributed 49,, 900
to the Democratic campaign fund.-" is
one of that kind of reckless statements
of the voracious leaders of the Repub-
lican party that lacks the essential ell
ement of truth. The only issue upon
the liquor question in this State is be-
tween the Republicans who declare
themselves in favor of the "specif1c
taxation of the liquor traffic and the
Republican Supreme Court, that de-
clares such taxation to be unconstitu-
tional, and at last accounts the Court
bad rather the better of the argument.

CONGREGATIONAL Convention.

The Democratic Convention for the
18th Congressional District met in
Warren, Friday, September 29th, to
place in nomination o member of Con-
gress to be voted for at the ensuing
election. The meeting was called to
order by the Chairman of the District
Committee, and II. S. Pomeroy, OF Ge-
auga, was elected Chairman, and s. b.
Palm. Secretary.
A motion prevailed that the District
Committee remain the same as last
year with the addition of one addition
al member from each county, said
member to re selected by the EAecu-
tive Committee of the several counties.
Candidates for Congress being In or,
der, E. E. Nash, of Geauga, nominated
David L. Rockwell, of Ravenna, Por-
tage county, for the position. The
motion was seconded by ID. Z. Cool
man, of Portage. and J. w. klumpp.
of Trumbull. Chairman POmeroy said
that Geauga never in the history OF
the county had presented candidate
for Congress, and thought it due to his
county that the candidate should hail
from there, but considering that SO
able man as Mr.. Rockwell had been
presented, Geauga deferred its claims.
Mr.. Rockwell was nominated. He
made few well chosen remarks and
closed by saying he would do all he
could for the success of the ticket.
Adjourned.

The GOOD Lordy Party.

The Republican leaders profess gPeat
devotion to principle. but reference
to lis recentaction in different sections
of the country will show how ready
that great party is to resort to any
means which will enable it to hold ON
to the loaves and fishes. While de-
nouncing the doctrines Of the Green
hackers as being political heresy and
rank reputation under a thin dis
guise, they enter into an open alliance
with Greenback leaders in Texas, AL.
ALBANIA, Arkansas and Missouri. While
protesting great respect for the sacred
ness of public obligations they give
their aid to elect two Readjusters,
which is but another name for repudi-
alton. Last year, in Ohio, they ran
the campaign on the money furnished
| by the brewers, distillers and saloon
men, making to them fair promises
not to legislate against their interest g
while this fall they started out on a
high moral plain in favor of temper
ance and Sabbath observance, but be-
ginning to find it don't pay, are pre-
pairing for grand flop, and are now
raising funds with which to buy up as
many of the saloon men as possible.
There is no sacrifice Of principles they
will not make and no means, however
unfair and disreputable to which they
will not resort to retain the power they
have so long employed to plunder and
oppress the people.

COPIED from the Republican Democrat. by re-



Our town was the scene of a very
pleasant and interesting gathering on
Tuesday the 10th inst, it being the
seventy-second anniversary of the
birth of Mrs. Alonzo Leach and the |
first after they had been married fifty
years, which event it was intended to |
celebrate in connection with her
birthday. The program as previously
arranged was necessarily changed on
account of a heavy rain which came
soon after noon, rendering their house
and shady yard which otherwise would
have been pleasant place to spend
the afternoon, unable to accommodate
30 large gathering. It was therefore
thought best to spend the afternoon at
the town hall instead of going to their
home Immediately after dinner as by
arrangement. About II O'Clock the
aged couple were waited upon by par
ties who invited them to walk to the
town hall-which after some hesita-
tton they consented to do-where they
found Including few who came after
wsrds) nearly one hundred persons
gathered to greet them, and after a
time, which was heightened by the
rain, spent in shaking hands and kind
ly wishes, they were invited to seat
at table loaded with such good things
and arranged with such taste as the
ladies of our town we'll understand,
and we think they can't be beat In
this respect. During the noise of seat
Ing at the table the corner Of the hall
was cleared of chairs and a table
brought in and spread. Then, behind
screen of fair young girls with arms
entwined, the gifts, consisting of
silver tea set and butter dish, were
placed upon it. Two large green and
white bouquets formed a beautiful
background, while white flowers were
placed among the green vines dropped
over the silver. The butter dish was
placed In a beautiful wreath of fautumn
colored ivy leaves, autumn buds and
white lilies, the whole making a very
rich table. It was then covered and
all left to attend to the wants of the
inner man. After this had been we'll
attended to Rev, P. P. Kennedy in
vited Mr.. and Mrs. Leach to seats near
the table, and with some appropriate
remarks in behalf Of friends, present
ed the gifts. Mrs. Leach then slowly
arose and thanked the donors with
words 80 otouching that they brought
tears to many eyes, the drift of her
words being. "All this for me, so un-
worthy" " and that it "showed more
love than she ever thought was felt
for her." Soon after this the friends
bade them good bye and separated, all
feeling that the party if not wholly
surprise, was enough so to be success.

DRMOCHATlC STATE TICKET
pEMocRAT,o PLATFORM.

The Democratic party of Ohio in convention
assembled, rca1rrm the great principles which
are the foundation OF the government, among g
which are equal rights to all, special privileges
to none protection of the weak against the en-
cyoachments OF the strong, equal taxation, free
speech, free press. free schools. and first OF all,
a FREQ and uncorrupted ballot.
RESOLVED That we favor an honest reform
in tho civil service, and denounce the extortion
of money from ONCE holders to corrupt the bal
lot and control ele:t :tiOns, ,as most threatening.
as 1t is the most insidious, danger that besets
free government; and the shameless resort 10
such methods by the party in power to carry its
ends. evidences the utter abandonment Of prin-
ciple for place and spoils under boss " rule.
We denounce the reckless extravaganza and
pronigacy Of the Republican party In the ap
preparation of the public treasure, which should
be applied to the extinction Of the national debt,
and We believe the time has come when. by an
honest and economical administration OF the
government. the burden eff war taxes which the
people have so long borne and which in the end
fall upon labor, may and ought to be reduced;
but we denOunce the attempt of the Republican
Congress 10 reduce taxes on those articles which
will inure to the benefit OF the rich,
RESOLVED, That we favor tariff levied to
Ineet the actual needs OF the government, and
so adjusted in its details with view to equality
in the public burdens as to encourage product
i've industries and afford labor just compensa-
tion without creating monopolies.
RESOLVED, That stability in the value Of
money Is a primary requisite to industrial and
commercial prosperity. This can only be Sc
cured by maintaining both gold and silver as
money as provided by the Constitution, and
subjecting the issue and regulation of paper
money to established principles which will pre-
vent fluctuations in the value of the currency
RESOLVED, That the growth Of monopolies is
such as to seriously threaten the rights Of indi-
yiduals. and the public welfare. and ought to
be provided against by proper legislation.
RESOLVED, That the Democratic party has

the doctrine OF the largest individual liberty

public welfare. and Is opposed to legislation
merely sumptuary.

on our government to protect its citizens, native

we demand searching inquiry into the alleged
outrages committed against citizens OF the Uni
ted States In foreign countries.
