Yes, we've got already, pair Of
good suspenders, thoroughly tested,

Jerk the buttons off. We extend cor

over and try them.

We believe no county paper in the
State has more right to boast Of its
patrons than the Standard. We do
nc soliciting, and no dunning- yet
our list Of subscribers is large, is in
creasing steadily. and our subscribers
do not have to be reminded of the
time to pay. We have nothing to say
Of the merits Of the paper. We will
say, however that in this Presidential
year, as in former campaigns, the
Standard will crowd more sound poll
cal sense, and sound Republican doc
trine, within the same space, than any
other paper in Southern Ohio. And
this at very trifing cost to subscrib-
ers. One dollar per year, free Of pos

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher was in
terviewed upon the Presidential possi-
bilities, one day last week. Mr. Beecher
thinks Gen. Sherman, If nominated,
would ''sweep the country from North
to South" He thinks, if an Eastern
man should receive the nomination
for President, that Robert T. Lincoln
should receive the nomination for
Vice President.
Mr.. Beecher adds, in his pointed
way, that "the Democratic party has
but one element in advance Of the
Republican party-it is far more cow
ardly." Mr.. Beecher thinks there is
no reason to apprehend that the next
President will not be a Republican,
and gives, as his own choice, President
Arthur.

which provides for the establishment,
under board of three Managers, to

AN OPEN LETTER
To Hon. HI. 8. Bundy. Urging Him to Be-

Congressional Convention, and His Re-
ply in which He Consents to the Use Of
His Name.
WELLsToN, OHIO, !
March IS, 1884. {

WELLsToN, OHIO,
March Is, 1884. :
To Hon. FL. S. Bundy:-
Desiring the success of the Repub-
lican party, with your election as our
Representative in Congress in the
coming National contest, we, the un-
dersigned, as your personal and polit-
ical friends, join here in an earnest
request that you become, and permit
your friends to use your name as
candidate for Representative from
this district, subject to the indorse-
ment Of the approaching Congress
sional convention.
Though not having the time to
canyass at large the district. yet aside
from our personal feelings in the
matter, we feel warranted in making
this request, because Of your long ex-
perience in public life and your prac-
tical knowledge Of the material inter
ests of the district, acquired by bus
mess experience of 40 years or more,
best fits you, as we believe, for the in
telligent discharge of the duties of
Representative at this time, certainly
in higher degree than new and
inexperienced man without the strong
INCENTIVE of your large and extended
business interests. And because as
Republican you have ever been regard
less Of political preferment, abreast Of
your party in the introduction and
advocacy of those great principles of
Governmental progress, all Of which
have been in the end fully Endorsed,
not only by the Republican party,
but lame attempts have even been
made since by the Democratic party
to incorporate them, secondhand like,
when the exigeneies required, into the
platforms of their party-notably so
the Civil Rights Law passed by the
43d Congress, Of which you were an
honorable member and an able advo-
cate Of that bill, but which the leaders
of that same Democratic party in this
district, by stress of party feeling and
sectional and race prejudice, made the
instrument of your defeat.
And because Of these facts, and be-
lieving that the party shall and will
vindicate your past record, and believ-
ing that all your Republican friends
if called on personally would join with
us. We feel authorized in behalf Of
all your Republican friends, to make
this request, pledging ourselves with.
out derogation to other worthy and
able men, to use all honorable means
should you be nominated, to SECURE
your election.

day we had little business to transact
with Oliver S. Miller, and went to his
store, on Main Street, opposite the Court
House. We noticed a number of people
in the store. They were not idlers or
loafers, but people who were buying
goods. Mr.. Miller was busy, waiting up
on some lady customers; but he had sew
eral persons assisting him, and he was
able at once to attend to us. You can al

On Monday we went to Mrs. Graham's
rooms to select lamp for room we are

lamps, as usual, together with very full
stock of queensware, glassware, &c. We
noticed several nice sets of queensware
upon the floor. Mrs. Graham noticed
that this attracted our attention, and she
explained that these were to be presents
given to couple who were to be married
the next day. There is no better place to
select valuable, appropriate presents, eth
er for weddings or surprise parties, than
at Mrs. Graham's.

soundness of their corn, and they sent
some of it to the Ohio Agricultural Sta

showed us the result, from w. L. Devol,

certainly shows seed almost perfect.
