THE New Hampshire Democrats met in
convention on the 21st. The resolutions
adopted have the true ring, and declare
against all laws tending to centraliza-
ton of power, wealth and political in
auence; demand q reduction of the wal
tariff; commend the Democratic MAORI
ty in the House for its recent efforts at
tariff reform; insist on no cessation of ef-
forts to have the internal revenue sys-
tenn reestablished on an honest basis;
call for thorough reform of the tariffand
financial administration of affairs; ar
raign the Republican party as false to
the interests of the people, and assert
condemnation of the "great crime of
1876, wrong we propose to right and
make impossible hereafter" The del
egates to the national convention were
not instructed, but they will support
the "old ticket" as the unanimousvoice
Of the convention was for that end.

The Celina Reservoir.

The big pond commonly called the
reservoir is now attracting the followers
of Isaac Walton to Celina in great
numbers. The reservoir, by the way,
is one of the wonders of Ohio, and
strangers are apt to doubt the veracity
of the Celinians, who delight to tell OF
the biggest artificial lake in the world,
with lis 1900 acres and extent of ten
miles. However they never fail to be
convinced of the magnitude of our
towns pride and boast if they are SO
fortunate as to visit the place, and a
feeling of surprise overcome the tourist
who makes successful find of q big
bass that any one should question the
truth of fish story after catching fish
in the reservoir. The fishing season is
now at its best and some famous cap.
lures are being made by the anglers
each day. Celina Standard.

THE TAX SYSTEM.
A Passing Glance at this Species of
Systematized Robbery:

In the New York Times of March 81,
Sydney Smith thus holds up to full
view the beauties of tariff that must
not he disturbed or agitated. Let every
American read and reflect:
When the American citizen wakens
in the morning his eyes open upon the
walls of the room covered with paper
taxed % per cent. He throws off his
blankets, taxed 60 per cent, and steps
from his bed, taxed 35 per cent, upon
the carpet, taxed 74per cent. He draws
aside the window curtains, taxed As per
cent. and looks out through the glass,
taxed S0per cent, to see how the wealth
er is. Throwing off his night-shfrt,
taxed As per cent, he puts on his un-
der shirt and stockings taxed 75per cent,
cotton shirt, taxed As per cent, and
vest, coat and pants, taxed 4S per cent.
Finding button gone he has it sewed
on with a needle, taxed 25 per cent,
and spool thread, taxed 60 per cent.
He arranges his hair with combs and
brushes, taxed 80 per cent, and pares
his finger-nails with a pocketknife,
taxed 50 per cent, or with scissors,
taxed As per cent.
Feeling little out of sorts, he takes
a dose of castor oil, taxed 102 per cent,
from goblet taxed As per cent. He
shaves himself before looking-glass,
taxed go per cent, with razor taxed
45 per cent, with lather from soap
taxed 81 per cent. He starts his fire in
a stove taxed As per cent, with coal
taxed 60 per cent. and puts on the tea
kettle taxed So per cent. 1t being Fri.
day, and he man of moderate means
he has a light breakfast of mackerel
taxed 25per cent, with rice, taxed l23pel
cent, and some salad on which he uses
salt, taxed SO per cent, and sweet oil,
taxed "a per cent. For the plates and
cups and saucers used on his breakfast
table he is taxed 55 per cent, and he
pays As per cent. tax on his knives and
forks. The sugar he uses in his coffee is
taxed AZ per cent, and he pays AZ per
cent. tax on the spoon wherewith he
stirs up the sugar in his coffee. A few
pickles, as q relish, are taxed 80 per
cent, and he adds to them vinegar
25 per cent, and tops off his breakfast
with an orange taxed 90 per cent. His
breakfast being finished he smokes his
cigar, or cigaret, taxed all the way from
rs to 200 per cent, according to quanti-
ty, and prepares for his daily duties
Putting on his hat, taxed rs per cent,
his overcoat, taxed 5S per cent, and
gloves, taxed so per cent, he takes his
umbrella, taxed 50 per cent, and starts
off to business.
Being engaged in building house fol
himself he looks up some building ma
terial. He purchases brick, taxed Al
per cent, states roofing taxed 80 pei
cent, window glass so per cent, paint
and white lead, 81 per cent, wooder
pipe for drains, taxed so per cent, ano
hardware taxed all the way from SO tt
$50 per cent. And this is the daily life
of the American citizen. and each one
can fill up the residue of the day accord
ing to the requirements of his specia
vocation.

Itwas Hancock, we believe, who said
that the tariff question was a local
issue. Each day provides evidence of
the wisdom of his conclusions, and we
are led to believe that it is really largely
a personal issue. Every citizen is in
clined to favor such an adjustment as
will most benefit himself. Each
farmer in the country would be pleased
to have prOhibitory taft placed upon
wool and all other commodities which
he produces. So with the manufac-
turer. To his mind, the productions of
his factory should alone be protected
from foreign competition. 1t is not Of
ten, however, that we see this natural
spirit of selfishness exhibited in Con-
gress. Something better is expected of
our legislators, but the recent tariff bill
introduced by Hewitt, of New York,
indicates the expectations are not al
ways realized. This Congressman is the
senior member of the firm of Hewitt,
Cooper & Co., large manufacturers of a
certain variety of steel and iron. His
bill increases the duty on wire, of which
he is one of the largest manufacturers
in the Uuited States, half a cent a
pound; he doubles the duty, (viz.: in
creases it from 6-10 to 1910 cents per
pound) on iron rods, of which he is the
largest manufacturer in the country;
and he places steel rods, of which he is
a large consumer, and which he does
not manufacture, practically on the free
list. This is a clear eXemplication of
our idea that while patriotism and un-
selfish regard for the welfare of the
whole people would make of the tariff
a national issue, it is really personal
question, wherein each individual seeks
to protect his own interests at the eX-
pense of others.-Bucyr,ts Forum.

1t is predicted that the Supreme
Court by unanimous vote will declare
the Scott law unconstitutional. 1t is
said that Judge McIlvaine year ago
voted for its constitutionality under
great pressure. Judge Jodnson is a cam
didate for reelection this year on the
Republican ticket, and he or his friends
can explain why it was that the Repub-
lican Convention at Cleveland indorsed
the Scott law in the morning and took
it back in the afternoon. Who was it
whispered: "The Supreme Court will
declare the Scott law unconstitutional,
and our Judges will join in the opinion,
and that will leave us high and dry?'"

only party that ever existed III Ohio
