the Journal, weekly, as dsma
sogue, in referring to the action OF
the democratic legislature, in So
lecting a co'ored man for a place
SAYS the act of the Democrats in
appointing colored men, has about
as much relation to what the Re.
publicans have done, as "Two
deuces in game of bluff. have to
four aces.''
This coming from a man of God,
and a preacher, indicates familiarity
with the devices of Satan, that as
tonishes us. Has the hoary head
ed and professional bible hanger got
to playing poker? Is his mind in
fected aud his heart corrupted as the
language of his lips would indicate,
with the satanic sports of the wicked
men, who represe Mt the people in
the Legislature.
It seems to us some church or
legislative action should be taken
with this preacher and card writer
of such reckless comparisons.

A Surprise Party.

Haydcnville, O., Jan 11th. On
January Sth, 1884, a company OF
twenty eight friends and relatives
of Mr.. Lswis Coakley, assembled at
his residence in Green Township, to
celebrate his thirty fourth birth
day.
Notwithstanding the deep snow,
and the disagreeable night, nearly
all tho invited guests were present.
Some came in sleighs. others on
foot, but all came with baskets
hlled with the most delicious cake,
pie, chicken, and all kinds of fruit;
the best the country could afford.
All this arrangement was en-
tire!y unknown to Mr.. Coakley. It
never entered his mind that it was
his birth day, until the company as
sembled. We enjoyed one of the
most pleasant times we ever had,
We found Mr.. Coakly and his wife
In rs high spirits as they ever were;
and were at a loss for language to
express how they enjoyed it. We
wish Mr.. Coak!ey many happy re
turns of the day and long and
prosperous life.

A Dead Beat.
From Nelsonville Republicans.

From Nelsonville Republicans.
A "dead beat" named W. Fl.
Druggins, who for a period of about
seventeen months took the Repub
lican at Logan, has left there and
neglected to forward to us his pres
ent address or the money he owes
us Oh subscription. This kind of a
''heat' is the most despisable of all
one who will take a mans goods
and not pay for them. We warn all
newspaper publishers not to trust
this man for subscription.
DR.. Bright informs us that the
party alluded to. was an attendant
at the Athens Asylum, but was re-
lieved by DIR. Holden. The man
who will swindle an editor. can not
be trusted in any position.
During the twelve years we have
been engaged in paying the expen-
ses of the SENrINEn, we have not
met an instance ofsuch small mean
ness As the Jacksonville paper CON-
plains of. Often times we lose sub
scription. The subscriber dies, or
breaks p,and of course can not pay.
A great many have not paid, be-
cause, possibly, it is not convenient
to do so promptly. But We never
yet had scoundrel on our list, who,
after taking the paper for years.
would, without apology, refuse to
pay for it. The Nelsonville Re-
publican's dead beat ," should be
passed aleng e the line."

Mr.. Welsh is made Chairman

not have been made. Mr.. Welsh
is one of the able men of the Sen

to render good service to his con-
stituents, to the party and to the

He has built up productive in

He is not only sensible in his in

In The late Senatorial caucus
Col. Weldy voted for Pendleton,
and Senator Welsh voted for
Payne. Each of these gentlemen
voted. we know, an honest con-
riction, and we have no flult to
find with them.
We believe q majority Of the
Democrats of this district and
this county were for Ward. The
candidacy for Senator was not an
issue in their campaigns, and we
know that their constituents will
not object to a vote from person
al conviction OF either. when the
matter voted upon was not in
issue before the people when
their suffrages were cast.

We suggest 10 him to open his

tongue upon Republicans, and

Horrible Ending of a
Drunken Spree.
A YOUNG MAN KILLS HIMSELF IN
A GROG SHOP.

On last Thursday evening, a
young man, named William Kelly.
of Ward township, living near
Longstretb's, s, committed suicide by
shooting himself through the heart
with a revolver.
He had been drinking hard for q
week or more. On last Thursday
he armed himself with a revolver
and declared it his intention to
shoot a man named Rutter, and
then kill himself. Rutter was pay
ing attention to Ke!ley's sister, to
which Kelley objected.
Rutter hearing Of the threats of
Kelley, kept out Of his sight. In
the evening Kelly came into Sprays
Saloon, and after some Indifferent
conversation, and without any pre-
monitlon drew his revolver and
shot himself in the heart, dying al
most instantly.
Coroner Heft was informed ofthe
occurrence, and went down on Fri
day. On investigation, he became
satisfied that tho mans death was
his own act, and that no proceed
ings in the case were required
from him officially.
But a great crime against God
md Law has been committed. A
young man, the promised hope and
help of his parents, possessed of
mind and muscle, to make a good
and useful citizen, prompted by the
furies of He'll, kills himself.
By his own hand, directed by tho
Demon of Drunkenness, he sinks
into a dishonered grave, despised of
men and accursed of God. 1t is an
awful crime, and may the mention

Representative Weldy.

1t affords us pleasure to note
that our Representative, Col. S.
Weldy, is recognized among the
members of the Legislature as
one of the prominent men of that
body. In the selection of the
Committees, who really do the
work of legislation, the Col. has
been assigned the most import
ant places in the list.
He is Chairman of Geology,
Mines and Mining, the most im-
portant committee of all TO the

was foremost among her sisters
in the mining business, and we
are glad to see our county thro'
her Representative, placed at the
head of the list.
Col. Weldy will do credit to
himself, to his county, and to the
mininginterests in this important
position TO which he has been
appointed.
Heis also appointed as Mem
Der of the Committee on Judici-
ary, and Public Printing. two of
the most important committees
of the Legislature.
In the Senatorial contest, Col.
Weldy was on the side which did
not win, and had no reason to
expect favor from the yictors.
His selection to places on the
committees we have named, and
his appointment as Chairman of
the Committee on Mines and
Mining, the. most important to
us. is recognition of his capa-
bility, and compliment to his
constituents over which we have
Just reason to be highly pleased.
