The big Republican mass meeting in
Ohio on Tuesday of last week WAS
largely attended. Several. hundred
thousand Republicans participated in
the exercises. and lie addresses deiiv-
cred are said IT, bt the. best ones Of the
campaign. Ohio made one of the
''greatest efforts OF her ife'
Wheat went up 4c. At Sioux Falls AS
u result of the Ohio election. and il far.
mer up in Marshall county declares
that it Blaine is elected wheat will 20
80 bushels to the acre ard bring $l.5O
u bushel next year.
By-theway, why don't someh"ly
make that point il. favor of the tariff?
Land ought to produce 50 bushels Of
wheat to the acre under ''protectiul."
WIS., PARRY FOR COMMISSIONER.
The Fourth District Convention held
at the Roberts School House in Little
Rock, on Wednesday, the 18th, nOmi-
mated Wm. Parry, of Little Rock town
ship for Commissioner Of that District.
Mr.. Parry is one of the most success
full and substantial farmers in the coun-
ty. He WAS an early settler here, is ia
miIiar with :he history and the needs
of the county, and is il No. man as
to character and standing. The Con-
vention certainly made a good choice,
and we believe the nomination will be
satisfactory to all parties.
STOCK AND FLAX
It is both amusing and gratifying tn
notice how the people and the newspa-
pers Of the Dual City, come along af-
ter il time and call attention to south
western Minnesota. For years they
seemed to know only the Northern Pa
ciiic region aud wheat. but recently
they discovered that the Southwest had
gone into stock raising and tlairyiny
anal WAS growing rich; that the "Blne
Grass ltegiul' of the west was down
this way, and that o,lr d"ytlopmcc;
WAS "nEIrvtlouS," astonishing. etc.
They u,tlm't know before that lit was
loadtI' so heavily.
Now they have discovered that we
have been growing II * down here in
stead OF wheat, aid hat flax crmmonhs
$l.l2 to 81 20 while wheat is SOC to 6Oc
This WAS another eye-"pener, an "as-
tonis!!me;t," "Surprise,' etc.
Flax is flax and Grass is King.
MISTAKEN ABOUT OHIO
\ Columbus despatch says:
Probably the most thoroughly dis
gmsted man III Ohio since the election
is G ". iIuadly. lie was enthusiast tic
and confident in his claims, and sur
passed John &. Thompson in exult;,-
tiOn before the election, but since Tues
day night the governor has been badly
under Il cloud. Some OF his eminent
Democratic friends were given pointers
by his eXcel!ency Il few weeks ago, and
accepted his figures. The governor
telegraphed his Democratic admirers
substantially rs follows: "Ohio is as
sure to 60 Democratic us the sun is to
rise OH election day. We will carry
Ohio by $1,000 majority.''
Which shows that man can be elect .
ed Governor of Il great State and not
understand it's politics nor the causes
which made him Governor ll"adiy
was elected partly us Il rrbuke I" til"
Republicans for passing the bill taxing
mediums, partly as Il lt'h;'ke 10 the
prohibition fan,t'cs a!id ,'a,tI> "n a
number "f minor issues. But it w;.S
Republicans who thcird him.
This year National ISSUES and Il NJ.
ti0nal campaign are on. Ohio, always Il
Republican State as t" Republican prin-
ciplrs. simply votes as she always has.
Republican when Republican princi
pies are at stake. Gov Il"adly ought
to have known his State better.
We have uniformly cl,,nh Ohio 10y
10000 this year. and did SO on these
grounds: lst-;)hl" is u Republican
State and always goes Republican when
the vote is out and Republicanism or
Republican principles are il issue. 2nd
Ohio is 4 manufact uring State and is
always Republican when the tariff is
sue is up.
1t is never safe to claim Ohio on mere
State issues. 1t is always safe to claim
it on National issues.
RESULTIN OHIO.

county Clerks, is given rs follows:
On Congressman, 1S,4lS Rrpnblica,
