600 pounds of oleomargarino are made
annually in this country, and the business is
on the increase. The result has been very
disastrous to the dairying interest In nine
cases out of ten it is sold as genuine butter,
and 1t was exported as genuine butter. BY
its unfair competition 1t has lowered the
price of good butter to the retail
dealer, but not TO the consumer, for the
dealer absorbed all the profit, and by cheat
ing his customers made profit of 10 cents a
pound, when 8 cents would have been
ample Mr.. Real says the dairymen make
no objection to oleomargarine 30 long as it
is sold as such. What they complain of,
and their complaint certainly is just one, is
the deception which is habitually practised.

How They Do Love The LabOring Man

Before the Republican party ousted
the Democratic party from the con.
troll Of the government, the Demo.
cracy owned, as they did their beasts
the men women and children who did
one half of the work in this country
These poor 'chattels" had to work,
under the lash, without any pay.
This, of course, degraded the laborers
who were not owned by the Demo-
cracy, and reduced wages to the very
lowest point.
Some Democratic reformer has been
travelling through Jefferson township,
and writing to the Portsmouth Times
and among other discoveries he gives
this:
"Said VIM. D. Wallace to US: 81
kept careful account for one month
of one Of the men, and stout man
he was, digging ore for me, and his
average earnings per day was "A!
cents. l asked him how he lived, and
he replied: You ought to know best,
for [ guess [ have overdrawn" and
so he had"
Now Mr.. Wallace ought to have a
pension, for paying a laboring man so
magnificent sum for days work
in the ore bank. It is scarcely neces-
sary to say that Mr.. Wallace is a
"DimmYcrat."

Our Democratic friends are a good
deal worried because the Republicans
are going to vote against the working
men on the Democratic County Ticket.
Well, let us notice that ticket for a
moment. The Democrats proposed to
make big fight on Sheriff. Two
miners, Bartlett and Palmer were can
didates for this nomination. The
Convention threw them both over
board, and nominated Sell, a Railroad
engineer, man who has steady work
at good wages, the year through.
These miners must depend upon the
uncertain business Of mining for a
livelihood, and the Democrats shut
out the men who were dependent upon
AN uncertainty, and nominated man
who had sure position. The only
representation they gave the miners,
on the ticket, was the nomination for
Clerk, decidedly forlorn hope. These
are nice fellows to talk about being
friends Of the miners, are they not?

Myers In Trouble.

1t will be remembered that Allen o. Myers
last winter in the Ohio Legislature opposed the
measure for appropriating money for the relief
of the flood sufferers along the Ohio river. In
the face of this, he had the cheek to go to Iron
ton few nights ago to make a Democratic
CIeveland-Ebert-Retorm speech. The Ironton
Bee criticised Allen somewhat, beforehand, and
that individual got up before a crowd in the
public square, holding copy of the paper in
his hand. After reading the Bees editorial re-
ferring to himself. he asserted that the father
of Mr.. Tomlinson, editor of the Bee, was a white
man, but that his mother was 'nigger."
Tomlinson watched for Myers for nearly forty
eight hours before he could catch him away
from a crowd. He finally found him in the
Ironton House, with Jos. Fisher, Leo Ebert's
partner in the brewery, acting as body guard.
Tomlinson walked in with a revolver in his
hand, when Myers turned deadly pale, add be-
gan begging like whipped spaniel.
"Hold up yobr hands ~ thundered Tomlinson,
sand swear before Good that you lied about my
mother"
"Oh, yes, yes! swear I lied !" whined Allen,
throwing up his hands, and trembling with
fear. Tomlinson raised the pistol a second time
as if to snoot when up few the hads again, and
"Yes, yes, lied !" was chartered out by the
miserable wretch. Tomlinson was taken away
by his friends, and Myers was so lerribly scared
that he sent for the Sheriff to bring posse and
escort him to the depot, which was done.
Just what the Democracy expect to accom-
plish by sending out as speakers such fellows as
Sam Cary, Vance, Myers, and the like. are past
understanding. 1t is probable that Myers will
go around Ironton next time.

WHOLE NO. 1914.

President Seelye, of Amherst Col
lege, is quoted as saying, in a recently
letter:
"If the charges to which you refer
are true, | do not see how one with
any self-respect can vote for the man
Cleveland against whom they are
made nor how party with any pre-
tentions to decency, can keep such
man in nomination. To affirm that
the oHenses are venial, because they
have not been Haunted in the face Of
the public, or to argue that, since
they effect only the candidates private
life, they are no bar to his election to
high public office, indicates, should
say, shocking debauchery of moral
sentiment"
President Seelye does not, in this
language, affirm or deny the truth OF
the charges against Governor Cleve-
land; but, on the supppositon of their
truth, he reasons, as every pure and
sensible man would naturally reason.
The charges are not denied by anybody,
not even by Governor Cleveland him
self; and this is quite enough to make
the language applicable to him in its
fullest force. The people of the
United States certainly cannot afford
to transfer such disgusting moral
stencil to the White House.-N. Y.

Bread, Blood, or Beer.

The Cincinnati Post has been
gathering statistics about the great
labor question. The result shows
that something must be done soon.
The investigation shows that twenty
five thousand men are out of empty
ment, and the Post in an editorial
hints that these men will not, and
ought not to starve, and that bread
riots will be the end Of all this distress.
Then the report says:
The statistics show that there are
95 600 children of school age in the
city who are performing labor for
hire instead Of attending school. The
number of Germans out of employ
ment | presume to be in proportion
to the German population. There are
more people out Of employment this
year than last.
Now if there is work for these 95-
600 children, why do not the 25.OOO
idle men go to work, and let the child
rem go to school? No. These 25.OOO
men spend their time, day and night,
at the Dutch beer hells, while their
wives and children have to work to
support them in idleness, and furnish
them with beer and cigars. We have
some Of the same kind Of "reformers"
in Jackson, who put in their time
going over the country teaching
finance, while there wives and child
rem have to support themselves.
