ber. Does Mr. Nye draw his allowance9
It is safe to say he does, and vet while
he is paid TOR this service, the record
shows that the commissioners are paving
out hundreds of dollars every year to
other attorneys for doing the very. work
the law contemplates he shall do, and for
which he draws his pay We cannot
blame the commissioners, for in hiring
other lawyers whose services are worth
something, they are only doing in their
business what every one ought to do in
his, employing help whose opinions
can be relied upon.
We do not wish to prolong this article,
but as Mr.. Nye wants to be endorsed we
would like to know the reason why.
Ifit is the custom to endorse failures and
inability 10 comprehend the business of
the position, then the quicker the rule is
abrogated the better. This Office was
not created as sinecure for lawyers not
capable of taking care of themselves The
people must insist on having competent
officials to occupy important places. That
1t need not be said that this article was
withheld until too late for reply, we will
suggest that its truth or falsity can be as
certained on the day Of the convention by
taking the trouble to examine the rec
ords at the Court House.

fore him; he was warned that he would
have to meet these facts II he persisted
in his candidacy; but still, apparently
under the advice of unwise friends who
seem determined to push him through,
he continues In the field. We again
protest that he is not proper or an
available candidate, and in the interests
of political purity, to avoid the
very appearance of evil and in the in
terests of harmony, we insist that he
ought to be defeated in the convention.
Whatever may be the consequences
to individuals, the party must clear
her skirts. She must not be made to
carry any dead weights, even on local
ticket in this campaign. We believe
that Mr.. Nye cannot command the
support of delegates from this part of
the county, and if nominated there, can
be no doubt that it will cost the party
many votes which we can i'll afford to
spare.

Mrs. JANE Gray swrssuEIM, who died

Mrs. JANE GRAY SwIssHELM, who died
at Sewickly, Pa, July 20, was one OF the
first woman journalists of America. She
published the Pittsburgh Saturday Visitor
as early as 1916, and began to write for
the New York Tribune in 1850. She
originated the use of the red light in the
rear of railway trains, by urging its adop-
tion, in the paper she edited. She WELD
ed a sharp and vigorous pen, but was
most womanly sympathetic and loyable
lady in person, and manner, and devoted
her life to befriending the helpless, and
pleading the cause Of the oppressed. Her
intense feeling on the subject OF unjust
laws concerning property rights of women
came from her bitter experience with a
heaitless and small-souled husband, who
went to law to try to get possession Of his
wife's property, inherited from her
mother

THE controversy with regard to a Re.
publican candidate for prosecuting at
torney, Is exciting increased interest in
all parts Of the county, and the object
ions to the denomination of the present
incumbent are becoming so generally
known and so freely discussed that
there is no longer any valid excuse for
keeping silence, although we greatly
regret such an exigency as requires a
disagreement within the ranks of the
party. We prefer union and harmony,
but when policy is being pursued, not
only detrimental TO the interests of the
Republican party, but to good COVER
ment and TO good morals, 1t is time to
call halt, even though the consequent
ces TO individuals may be somewhat
disastrous. The feeling of dissatisfact-
ion is not Of recent growth and has In
This part Of the county no reference to
personal preferences for other candi-
iates. Public attention was first dl.
rected TO this matter by some commun.
icatlons In the Elyria Republican
against which were entered such vigor-
GUS protest and denials that 1t was no
'loubt presumed that all furthur discus
ion would be prevented. The trouble
IS however, the objections TO the con-
tinuance Of the present prosecutor In
hat Office are founded In reason and
truth, and viii not down at the bidding
Of his friends, even though backed by q
liberal use Of personalities and invect-
i've. That style Of defence doubtless Is
the best possible, under the ciroum-
stances, but IL 10 not argument nor has
it any special terrors for those whose
cause is founded In reason and justice.
A careful observation Of the conduct
Of the criminal business Of the county,
under the present administration, has
satisfied large number Of leading men
that the incumbent has not the requisite
legal and intellectual ability to properly
discharge the duties Of the Office; that
he has not sufficient Independence and
force Of character, and that he is not
sufficiently clear and quick In his pre-
ceptions TO enable.him to successfully
contend with the older and more exper-
ienoed members Of the bar, and In their

That he has grown so great"
A man who could write that he had
defended many criminals In the course
of his legal practice, for many OF whom
he had sympathy, all Of whom he
pitied, but had never defended one who
could better his condition by exchange
ing places with Mr.. /. s. Metcalf,
ought to have his garments as pure and
unspotted as an angels, without the re-
motest suspicion Of ever having given
q bribe by indirectlon, or covering 1t
with the very thin veil Of pretence OF
payment Of expenses, which he had no
legal or moral right to pay. Mr.. Met

Of affairs in the criminal practice Of

In conclusion, every possible effort
has been made to induce Mr.. Nye to

Tho Verdics For Blaine.

The grand ovation paid to James G.
Blaine last night In Philadelphia shows
where Pennsylvania stands in the
present contest. Never before did a can
didate for the Presidency receive higher
honor aud more enthusiastic devotion.
1t shows that so far as Pennsy lvania
is concerned the verdict Of the peo-
pie is made up. They have listened to
the arraignment of Mr.. Blaine before
the public. They have heard the
charges laid against him and have lis
tened to the arguments of learned and
eloquent counsel. They have heard
and have read for themselves the Null
ligan letters. They have listened to
the insinuating charges against his per-
sonal character. They have weighed
the evidence and the arguments as
well, and their verdict is that James
G. Blaine is 4" Not Guilty"
Not only have the people of Penn
sylvania declared his innocence, but
they say he is worthy to be President
of this great and grand Republic,
and in attestation TO their verdict they
will give Mr.. Blaine one of the largest
majorilies the State has ever given for
any candidate. Mr.. Blaine has been
tried in all The other States of the North
in the same manner and the verdict
is the same and his .acquittal Of venal-
ity and sympathy with corruption has
been complete. The grand verdict will
be rendered on Tuesday, Novemb Der 4th,
and on the 4th of March, following,
James G. Blaine will take the oath
of office for President of the United
States.

lao tons. From 1870 to 1880 our steel
productions grew from 3,60O,0OO to T.
200, 900 tons. The same increase is
shown in every other industry, but
mining goes ahead of all. We have
not only the greatest deposits of btu
minous coal in the world, but almost
the only anthracite known. In 1860 we
mined only 1900, 900, but now the
amount reaches $4,000, 900, an increase
of 600 per cent. The number of men
employed in the potteries has increased
from IL, 900 to 36, 200, while the value of
the product has increased In like pro-
portion. During this period our rail-
roads have increased from 20. 900 to ST.
900 miles. Our farms doubled in num-
Der during the same period, and their
grain products have more than doubled.
Our exports in 1860 were about $780,
00o, 600 they are now about 5000, OO0,-
600
This is not bad record for the Re-
publican party. No other party can
show one half 80 good. Why should q
change of administration be now made
while the country is prospecting at this
rate

A little over twenty years ago the
Republican party through the parriality
of the people was given control Of the
nation. Its record since then has been
a grand one, and though it subdued
the rebellion, manumitted four millions
OF slaves aud preserved the Nation, in
no sense has il grander record upon
any policy than it has upon protection.
Let us see what the party has done.
The population was then 10000, 900
now it is 53,000,000. During this
time four new States. and rs may Ter
ri1ories have been added to the Union.
In 1850 there were only one hundred
and forty-one cities and towns in the
United States with population of
5000 each now we have two-hundred
and eighty six cities whose population
reaches that figure. In 1860, we had
10 import 227 ,0O0,0 yards of cotton
fabrics for the use of the people, but
in 1881 our importations of this class OF
goods had diminished to 5000, 900,
Ii It taking into account the great in
crease in consumption owing to our
Increased popularon. Instead of i'm
porting such vast quantity of these
foooS' we now export lot, OO0,o0O yards
annually In 1860 only 10000 per
- n' found employment in our wooden
m Is, Producing goods to the value OF
eoo,ooo,OOO We now employ 100000
workmen, producing goods amounting
10 $500 O,O@. Along with these very
suggestive figures we may remark that
The number of sheep in the country,
during the same period, increased from
~ 600, 900 to more than 40, 600, 900, while
TIE wool clip grew from go, 600, OOC
p nnds 10 $40, DOC, 900.
But nowhere have the benefits of pro
te"'ion been more visible than in oul
ir industries. In 1860 our product
~-.s 800, 900 tons; in 1880 it was 1866.

Democrats put on their ticket yesterday

very me gentleman, and we have the
highest respect for him, but the purpose
Tor which he was nominated are so self
evident tina. they cannot be misunder-

have declared for Blaine have burned
the bridges behind them, and are to be
called back simply because one of their
number has been nominated for a Presi.

THE DEMOCRATS of Delaware in
their State Convention at Dover yes
terday gave their endorsement to the
pending Constitutional Amendments
in relation to the judiciary and in
creased representation. This is the
first party endorsement the disfran-
chising amendment has had, although
1t came in good time, for the poor little
wien faced thing has begun to LOOK
starved and evidently needed friends.
1t was expected, however, from the
start that as the amendment was a
partisan measure the Democratic party
would come to its rescue. This, how
ever, makes it none the more Just. 1t
is as obnoxious now under Democratic
endorsement as it was when it was
manipulated by partisan hands, for
partisan purposes, by partisan Legis-
lature. 1t remains still TO be seen
whether the people who want justice
done will cheerfully submit and vote
the way the party dictates.

THE cut and dry Democratic State
convention met in Dover yesterday
and did very quietly and orderly all
that it was asked to do by the Demo
cratic leaders. The only thing asked
OF the Convention outside of it's regular
routine of business was by committee
of the State Temperance Alliance. The
COMMITTEES requested the convention to
adopt resolution recommending the
submis sion OF the question of prohibi.
ton to a vote of the people. From all
that can be gained from the proceed
ings of the meeting no notice was takel
