The Wolf Unmasked.

Ohio Democrats are not remarkable
for their consistency. A year ago they
conducted a campaign having for its
purpose the securing of Office. In this
respect they were successful. They
promised all things that would secure
votes. The liquor interest was made
solid by promise that the Scott law
should be repealed. The wool growers
were captured by an agreement that the
tariff on wool should be restored; the
temperance people were cajoled by a
promise that a prohioitory amendment
would be carried with their assistance.
With the great opportunities they pos
sessed in Congress and in the General
Assembly, where the power vested in
large najorities gave them ample facili-
ties to fulfill the promises that were
made, not single measure of relief was
granted. Instead, a strong effort was
made in Congress to still further reduce
the protection afforded by the tariff; in
the Assembly no measures were taken
for the furtheranee of the temperance
crowd, but instead the lines were loosen
ed that had afforded some measure of
relief; even their most faithful allies.
the saloon keepers, were let off with
mouldy crust where they were promised
a full loaf.
The campaign of the present year is
carried forward upon similar plans. The
platform again makes promises to the
wool growers, which are not carried out
in the party councils. Upon the first
opportunity the only consistent protec+
Zionist in the Democratic party of Ohio,
George L. Converse, is thrown overheard
for an untried mas, who certainly will
not further the cause of the wool grow
ers in the halls of Congress as energetic
ally as did his predecessor. 1t is very
evident the Democracy of Ohio has no
further use for the wool growers. They
were made to serve purpose for the
time being in placing in power their
most bitter enemies. The wolf cannot
masquerade in sleeps robe in this
campaign with any hope of success. The
is too transparent and the vic
tins of last years deceit are too willy to
be again caught by hollow pretense.-

We Decline.

Every mail brings to US letters urging
the Sun to investigate on its own account
the truth of the shocking scandals that
affect the personal character of the Dem
ocratic candidate for President.
All of these requests come from Dem
oerats, some from Democrats prominent
at their respective homes. Some of the
correspondents are old personal friends
of ours. They express, as a general
thing, willingness to accept the result of
our investigation as final in determining
the question of Mr.. Cleveland's fitness or
unfitness
We must respectfully decline to under.
take the task.
If the Sun were in any way or in any
degree responsible for the selection of
the candidate, our sense of duty to the
Democracy might lead US to a different
decision.-N. Y. Sun.

Congressional Nominations.

The First Ohio district Republican
Convention Thursday nominated Hon.
Benjamin Butterworth, now Commis-
sioner of Patents, for Congress OF the
first ballot. The Republicans of the
Second Ohio district nominated General
Charles E. Brown. The Fourth Ohio
district Democratic Convention nemin-
ated G. M. Anderson. Il. M. Murray,
the present member from that district,
and G. W. Houk were defeated.
In the Eighth Ohio district Republican
Convention, after session of three
days, and on the 574th ballot, Clarke
county. at the personal request Of Capt.
Bushnell, withdrew his name and cast
its vote for Judge Littel. of Greene
county. This. with the vote of Greene,
was sufficient to nominate. and Fayette
county joined in swelling Littels vote
to 90. The candidate is a strong man
and will probably poll as large vote in
the district as any that could have been
nominated.

THE COUNTRY ROAD.

A narrow strip of earth that scarce dis
putes
The space for travel, with encroachinl
roots
OF sturdy briars, weeds and wiry grass
Where wheels of wagons and the horses
feet
Crush yellow daisies, may weed. clover
sweet,
Whose odors arise above the narrow
pass!
Here rosy school-boys, digit with dinner
pail
Halt in the shade full often to regale
On crimson berries nOdding by the
wall,
Or silent stand to catch the woodshrusf
note,
That through the waving hemlock:
shrilly floats
Or nearer scolding catblrd's vixen call
Here laggard dairies to the pastures
wend,
Browsing the weeds and grass on either
hand,
Slow moving sidewise for the passing
Till comes the whistling farmer lad to
gead
The lazy cattle from the narrow road
Through open barways to the field
and stream.
Here oft we meet the farmer gay and
blithe
Equipped with rake or hoe or cleaning
scythe,
Going a6eld amid the hay or corn,
Health in his face and vigor i'll his
stride;
Few are the gifts that Nature hath de-
To her own god-child on her bosom
born.
If thou at eventime shalt pass this way,
When silent are those scenes at close of
day,
And through the treetops stars are
seen above
Mayhap some couple leaning Ger the
bars
Search for conjunctions in the cleaning
stars
And dream a summer dream of youth
and love.
But ah, this country road comes to an
end
Debouching on way where meet and
blend
The tides of traffic and city's roar,
As tributary streams pour out their tide
Upen the rushing river deep and wide,
Where brooks and sighing reeds are
heard no more.
But all of us when on the busy street
Recall the country road with odors
sweet
Down which we passed to find a
broader way.
And somehow we left there amid the
trees,
The dewy odors and the droning bees
Some simple pleasures that we miss
to-day. s---9.

Tariff Plank INTERPRETED


1t will be remembered that just after
the adjournment of the Democratic Ma
tional Convention two widely different
interpretatans were put upon the tariff
plank-the Free Trade wing of the par
ty claiming that it meant "a tariff for
revenue only" while the Prosectionists
claimed that it meant tariff reform with
incidental protection."
This was very conclusive evidence
that the declaration was intended as a
straddle, and that when it came down
to serious work the party would prove
true to It's free-trade record. The first
practical Interpretation put upon the
new tariff plank was in the contest in
the Columbus district of Ohio between
Mr.. Converse and Mr.. Outhwaite, and
the majority of the Democratic voters
in that district have declared most em J.
phatically that the plank means free
trade.
What other construction can be put
upon their action? Converse was pro-
nounced Protectionist and had made
himself conspicuous in an attempt to
redeem the pledge made by the Ohio
Democracy to have the duty on wool
restored. At the Chicago Convention
he tied Mr.. Morrison in contest for
Chairman of the Committee on Plat
form, and was everywhere recognized
as an able member of the Protectionist
wing. On the other hand, his opponent
seems to have but two qualifications for
the place-he is pronounced Free Ira
per and the owner of a bar1. These
were sufficinnt, when it came to vote
among Dsmocrts of the district, to cause
the retirement of Mr.. Converse. There
can be no mistaking this Interpretation
of the tariff plank.-Pitts. Com. GaZ.

A Curious Burial Custom.
w York Evening Post.

A Jewish chronicler, writing in 1746,
of English burial custom, says: "Ths
English have several customs which, in
my opinion, are as fanatical as any that
are observed among other nations. In
this country the breath is no sooner out
of the body than they fall a-stripping
the body of everything made of linen.
A Moha medan is not more careful in
washing body, Jew is net more exact
in purifying, or Papist in muttering
over it some superstitious prayers. than
the English are in wrapping it up in a
flannel shroud There are great num-
bers of these grave-clothes ready made,
and many get tneir living selling them.
There is an express law prohibiting the
use of anything about dead body that
is not wooden. If 80 much as a thread
of flax or hemp Is employed in sewing a
shroud. it Is crime against the State.
However, at frst was exceedingly sur
prised at this strange custom; when
came to understand the reason, 1 was
far from condemning the English. The
intention of their law which forbids bu-
ryinp in linen is to increase the con
sumption of wooden goods, and 80 to en-
courage that kind Of manufacture"
Moneeca has the following reflection on
this law: Nothing, sure, can show a
greater concern for trade than 10 make
the very dead interest themselves IN H.
