1t leaks out that the Ohio repub-
~licans, fearful of the consequences OF
the reduction on the price of wool
through the legislation of it's con-

The best interests of the tax-pay-

necks to the designs of the small Ea.

Ifthe Democratic ticket is elected

come as usual and products mature

1t is perfectly safe to assume that
any charge made after this date
against any Republican candidate,
calculated to influence his election on
the 9Th of October, is q lie.-Register.
And it is equally as safe to assume
that the candidate for a public Office
who is obliged to carry around a GER
tifcate Of his good standing, is not
the kind to elect. Vote against all
such, Democrat or Republican.

Our candidate for Representative.

Our candidate for Representative,
for Auditor, for Treasurer, for Com.
missioner and for Infirmary Director,
will all make affidavit that not one
dime was used to secure their nomi
nation. Can the Republican candi-
dates do the same? Elect the men
whom the offices have sought. Such
are the kind of officials the people
Of Preble county want.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-09-27

The people ought to change off
Gals frequently. 1t is healthy to do
so. Old officers become careless and
corrupt. Try Democrats and if they
become the tools of Bosses who con-
troll nominations by party machinery
for personal advantage, and select
candidates years ahea' !, turn them
out and keep on changing until there
will be no Bosses. The people will
demand this fall, we think, that the
Eaton Bosses must go!

Every man on the Democratic
county ticket iss gentleman of in

If Billy Quinn, Townsend. Hi.
Robbins or Dan Harshman had mis-
applied the public funds for their
own private benefit during any of
their official terms, the little Boss
and his skuklux" crew would be
rearing up on their legs like kaHga-
roos on every street corner, and at
every cross road in the County,
bowling it to the people and warning
them not to vote for a Democrat
again!

The very latest Republican effort
to counterfeit Dorsey's terrible ex-

MI. Sheppard has not denied that
he is for Foster for United States

The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-09-27

It seems to trouble one of the Re-
publican Bosses that Mr.. Frank
Pierce, father of our candidate for
Representative, was once a Republi
can. Mr.. Pierce saw the error of his
way and repented as hundreds OF
other good honest men are now doing
every day, and a repentant man is a
thousand times better than n who
is still in sin. Besides, he did not
change for Office.

MI. Sheppard has Boss Fosters

This years wool clip will reach
27,000,0 900 pounds. No wonder the
Republican Bosses of Preble county

The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1883-09-27

The Republicans of Preble County

ordered it otherwise. Let the people

We agree with the Ohio State
journal, that stories calculated to
iDjure a candidate, or candidates,

the utmost caution, as they are
pretty sure to be without any sub
stantial foundation.

AS many voters do not fully under
stand how the Liquor Amendments
are to be voted upon, we will state
that the tickets of both the Demo
cratic and Republican parties will be
SO printed that upon the bottom of
each ticket the following words will
be printed:
CIRCULATION and Taxation of Liquor
Traffic..
"Prohibition of intoxicating Liq
uors,"-
The voter can write Eyes" or "no"
after Doth of these lines, or yes after
one and no after the other, just as
he desires. In case he writes neither
"yes" or "no" his vote will be count
ed as against both proposition. To
carry either propositions it must re-
ceive a majority of all the votes cast
and not merely q majority "yes" over
q majority smo." To illustrate: If
Is votes are cast at an election and
25 are eyes," % "no,' and % with
neither yes or no written or printed
on the ballots, the vote will count 20
yes and so no.. Thus it will be seen
that if neither yes or no are written
upon the ticket, it counts as a no
vote Just the same as if the voter
had written no upon his ticket. In
other words, to carry either PROPOSE
tion it must have a majority of all
votes cast, not merely q majority
s'yes' over a majority eco"
