If all men would avoid every ap-
pearance of evil, society would be safe
from the inroads Of crime. The re-
formation should commence with
the man who lays claim to respecta-
bility, yet frequents che doggeries and
gambling dens. It's the encourage
ment vice gets from respeetabiffty,
that makes it bold.

The Ironton Register thinks that
with Payne as the Democratic candi-
date, and and Blaine as the Republi-
can candidate, for the Presidency,
Ohio would go fifty thousand Repub-
hcan. Well, the old man Payne has
had consuming ambition, for a num-
ber of years to buck up against po-
litical buzz-saw. Let him rip.

In the Presidential contest this year,
the advantages would seem at the first
glance, to be with the Democratic
party. But that very fact should en-
courage Republicans. The more chan
ces the Democrats have, the worse
botch they make Of them. The party
cannot stand prosperity.

Parties from Scioto Township tell
bad story of a self-constituted Democrat
ic Returning Board IN that Township,
when the Democratic majority has here
tofore been enormous.
BY vigorous campaign the Republicans
succeeded in electing Jacob Garret Super
visor. The Democrats of course claimed
foul-it is always foul when they get
beaten, from their standpoint-and pro-
ceeded to recount the ballots. The Re-
publicans were willing to concede a dis
covery of a few votes-that had been
voted over from another district-but
claim that after these had been thrown
out, Garrett still had majority. Yet
the Democracy counted Jacob out, and
and appointed man in his place. They
are determined that the Democratic
prestige in that Township shall not be
tarnished by putting in Republican
even for Supervisor.

McHugh, the Cincinnati brute who
murdered his wife with a butcher

It is claimed that an explosive far
more powerful than dynamite has been
discovered. If any man has an ambi-
ton to be blown up with anything
stronger than dynamite, we haven't a
a word to say. But dynamite is as
strong as we care about tackling.

McHugh occupied one cell for two
years, in the Cincinnati Jail. That is,
the lawyers held him for two years to
see if they could not in some way get
around hanging him. But, with tear
full eyes, they must see the poor dear
murderer killed at last.

Gen. Ewing has written to friend
in Ironton, says the Register, that in
his opinion Blaine will be the Repub-
lican candidate for the Presidency,
and Tilden or Payne the Democratic
candidate. So it seems that the Dem

honored traditions of the party. 1t is
exploring the graveyards in search OF
a candidate.

How Watch Cases are Made.

In buying a silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap of most cheap
silver cases is made of composition known
as albata, which is 2 very poor gubstituss
for silver, as it turns black In short time,
The backs Of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order to make the cap
thicker and get in as much as possible of
the cheap metal. Another important point
inasilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. Those of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which is
pot q suitable metal for that purpose. In
brief period it warps, bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket. The
Keystone SilverWatch Cases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.
