CIeveIand's Courage. Z
Harper's Weehly says of Goyerno
Cleveland:

Ha,per's Weehly says of Governor
Cleveland:
aLast Autumn, when the Demo.
cratic District Attorney of Queens
county was charged with miscon-
duct. the Governor heard the accu
sation and the defense, and decided
that it was his duty to remove the
officer. He was asked by his party
friends to defer the removal Until
after the election, as otherwise the
party would lose the district by the
attorneys friends. The Governor
understood his duty, and removed
the officer some days before the cleo
ton, and the party did lose the dis
trict. This kind of courage and de-
votion to public duty in the teeth of
the most virulent opposition Of the
traders of his own party is unusual
in any public man, and it shows pre-
cisely the executive on lily which is
demanded at a time when every form
of speculation and fraud presses up
on the public Treasury under the
specious plea of party advantage"

First and Second Premiums for
Largest Crop Value.

EE
1.-THE Ohio State Board has just issued
DULY 9TH, 1sS4,) the Analyses of Fer~
tilizers on sale in Ohio. There are six
ty-five brands of Quick-acting Fertiliz-
ers. Schilling's BINARY BONE takes
the First Premium, because it has the
largest analysis of Phosphoric Acid,
and Schilling's BIsEcTED BONE takes
the Second Premium because it has the
second largest amount of Phosphoric
Acid. The Fertilizer that contains the
largest amount of Phosphoric Acid is
the Fertilizer that will produce the
most grain and grass; in other words
the fertilizer that has the largest a.
mount of Phosphoric Acid has the
greatest Crop Value.
W Orders for Schilling's Fertilizers
should be left at once with

Mr.. Morey, of Preble County, is
seeking the suffrages of the republi-
cans of Butler while he denies his
birth-right. He repudiates one of the
best counties in the state and sets
squarley down upon its people. The
wayiof the demagogue is hard.--But-
Ter Co. Democrat.
AS Mr.. Morey's father owned a
piece of land in Preble and also in
Butler, the line dividing them, and
each having a dwelling erected there
on that the family occupied at differ
ent times, the ''oldess inhabitant"
here don't know for certain in which
the honorable gentleman first saw
the light of day. But the Congress
ional directory ought to settle the
question. That claims him as a But
Ter boy! However, there is no 500
majority for him in Preble, no differ
ence where he was born.

The DEMOCRAT has not presented a
candidate, and has none to present.
1t has its preferences and independ-
ence enough to express them when
necessary for the good of the party
and against rings, but has never
attempted to 'set up" delegates or
forestall a convention for it's prefer
ences. The DEMOCRAT believes that
the delegates should come fresh from
the people to the convention and
without being tempered with previ
Gus to its conyeneing, and by friendly
intercourse and communion, ascer-
tain ifpossible the strongest and best
men to fill the places, and then nom
mate them. We favor giving all
worthy men an equal chance for a
nomination. The Register has not
the independence to oppose corrup-
tion in its party when it is plain to
it. That is the difference between
our neighbor and the DEMOCRAT.

Campbell and IHorey.
Cincinnati ENQUIRER.

Captain Bushnell's paper says that
"Reports from the Third Congress
ional District indicate that Major
Mercy will not be counted out this
time" Certainly not. He never was
counted out. He will be beaten on a
fair, square, vote, as he was two years
ago; but the indications are that
Campbell's majority will be so large
that Morey ear not raise a pretext
for the election certificate. TIE con
test which Mr.. Campbell made for a
seat in the present Congress was SO
well supported by the testimony, the
election laws, common sense and
common fairness, that it was q mat
ter of surprise to thinking men OF
both parties that his admission to a
seat was SO long delayed. He made
a strong and long fight fer Demo
cratic rights, and the Democrats will
not forget him. He will receive, too,
a large Republican and Independent
support on account OF his fitness
above his opponent for Congressional
duties.

New O r World.

What is there in Mr.. Biaine's life to
win popularity with the youth of the
country? 1t is true he has ability, but
to what use has he put it? He has
made himself wealthy by political
jobbery and congressional venality.
He has used his power in the homer
able position of Speaker TO Secure
profits out of railroad corporations
and rich lobbyists. He has been bold,
INSCRIPTIONS and reckless in his
schemes, and has resorted to dishon-
ora5le tricks TO remove the evidence
of his misconduct. AS a politician he
has been bitter in his jcalousirs and
malignant i'll his enmities. He has
never done great act or made q
great speech on any important ques-
ton which will live in the memory Of
his c~ountrymen. Selfish, ambitious,
revengeful, avaricions and unscrupu-
lous, how he made money. What ex.
ample does he set worthy the emula-
ton and admiration of the honest
youth of the Republic?

Mr.. Robbins had beer all summer
setting up the boys, and long before
the convention it "a well known that
none other need apply.-Register.
The above as not true! Mr.. Rob
bins did not previous to his nomina-
ton for either Recorder or Auditor,
ask OF solicit m person to be a dele
gate in his interest or vote for him in
the Convention. His nomination was
made as all others should be, with
out any setting up" or work with
the delegates before the assembling
of the nominating convention. Mr..
Musselman was scarcely known as q
candidate before the convention, and
was not even present when ballotted
for; SO with Mr.. Paddock. Such are
the kind of men the people want
for officials in Preble county, and
will elect them every time against
the eboss" and "machiEe" manufac
tured office seeking candidates.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1884-08-21

mo office seeker need apply to the
DEMOCRAT for encouragement" for
the reason that the Democrat
wishes to make it's own selections.
And yet there are no ''bosses" in the
Democratic party!-Register.
The DEMOCRAT has not advocated
the claim of any man for office, MOI
suggested any candidate to the con-
vention. 1t has urged upon the dele
gates to select the best men, and those
who have not attempted to "set up
delegates to secure a nomination.
Does that look like the DEMOCRAT
wanted to make its own selections
or any ''boss" business? Surely not
to a sensible person.

The Irish World opposed the cleo

the intelligent Irishmen amounts to
nothing. 1t is a mercenary concern.
