Isrenner,s Nomination.

Proof sheets, from Bro. Harkrider
of the Germantown Press, furnishes
us with what follows in relation to the
nomination of Simon Bremen, as the
candidate of this Senatorial District
for Senator. The Press is in Mont
gomery county, you know:
"At this writing we have nothing
further to say of Mr.. Bremen, as Ger
tain charges that have been made
against him are, as vet, unproven. We
have always regarded him as 4 square,
honest gentleman, and shall give him
our hearty support unless something
more turns up. But all the diction-
aries beneath the shining sun of
heaven fail to furnish language sufi
GENTLY strong with which to condemn
the infamous, disgraceful, shameful
manner in which he was nominated.
He is not the candidate of the Dem
ocratic party because he has not yet
been placed in nomination by a ma
jority of the representatives OF the
Democratic party of the District. He
can not afford to 70 felt his good
name by remaining upon the ticket,
under the circumstances, as it is a
fact, we'll known and easily establish
ed, that his nomination was secured
through fraud, practiced by his
friends"
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1885-09-10

We have not yet been educated up
to the point, that to be o good Dem
ocrat a man must support an acknow,
lodged rascal for an honorable pub
lie position, just because he is the
nominee of the party. Conventions
are frequently imposed upon by cor
rupt and intriguing -olice=seehef
and spoils hunters, and dishonest and
unworthy men nominated. When
such is known to be he case, it is the
sacred duty of every good and hon
est person to do everything in his
power to prevent the election Of the
nominee. His defeat is far more
c~reditable and honorable to the party
than his election. The party cry of
"kicker" applied to those who oppose
an unfit and dishonorable candidate
for public honor, should have no
effect upon them. 1t will have none
upon us.

The rapid accumulation of money
in the United States is beginning to
have its effect on interest or the rent
for it's use, and the time is not far off
when 8 to 4 per cent. will be the cur
rent rate for the hire of money!, as
the annual products of our mines is
about eighty millions per annum, or
an imitation of $1.50 per head, so that
the actual. value o money is decreas-
ing and will continue, so long as our
silver and gold mines hold out their
present yield. But on the contrary,
real estate, both farm and town prop
erty will appreciate in value, from the
fact that as an investment they will
yield a better income and are a much
safer investment than promises to
pay"

One of the strong arguments used
by the Mclean coal-oil gang for the
appointment Of Knecht as Revenue
Collector of this District was that it
would save the Soldiers Home vote.

burg, the Soldiers Home delegation

Instead of holding silver dolla,

Instead of holding silver dollars
back from circulation, as was pur-
posely and pe~rsistently done under
Republican administrations, and Civ
ing it out that the people did not
want them, the Democratic national
administration is sending them out
over the country and housekeepers
and shopkeepers are glad to get them.
The silver dollar and its fractional
parts are emphatically the money Of
the people fer common transactions
and daily use, and they are the best
of all moneys for laying away in the
house by persons of limited means
who are inclined to save money and
a do it only by laying away small
sums weekly or monthly.

The Republicans, who have net Ell
undervalued Mr.. Tilden's power nor
underestimate his abilities ofwhich
they have stood in ceaseless dread
have always mistaken his motives
and objects. To him office has ever
been the merest of instruments. For
himself he never set any store by it,
and he is the last man in the world
to quarrel with any body about a bau-
BILE SO trivial and uninviting. He is
indeed a good friend ard an equally
good enemy, and has a good memory
for both his friends and his enemies.
But he has at no time troubled him
self about the distribution of the pat
ronage, and is not troubling himself
now.

The statement of Capt. Bushnell in
his ill-timed letter declining a dis
cussion of the liquor question be-
tween Judge Foraker and DR.. Leon
ard, that the Republican party is
"neither for or against Prohibition"
was very unfortunate. The Prohibi-
tionists say they will have nothing
to do with such a party, and the Ii
quor men say it is not safe to trust
to any such ambiguous statement of
principles, or rather, want of princi-
pies.

from Preble for Bremen, had no right
to do it.

If the state of things in the south is

BY interviews published in the
newspapers it is seen that business
men in various cities agree that
there is a confident feeling, and that
the dawn Of a trade revival is at
hand. There is a better method of
intensifying and spreading this
feeling of confidence than by giving
the cheerful impression of bust
ness men circulated through the
newspapers. AS panics and failures
become epidemic, so may the conta-
gion of courage and prosperity sweep
the country.

County Commissioner before the
Democratic county convention next
Saturday. The New Paris Mirroy.
thus speaks of Mr.. Wehrlv:
"Not being a member of the party, of course
this is none of our business, and is a matter
in which we have no interest beyond that of
every citizen in having the best men nominal
ted on all tickets, but Mr.. Wehrly, by efficient
public service as township trustee and in other
capacities, has commended himself to the peo-
pie of this part of the county as a very fit
man for the place, and the convention would
do itself credit by nominating him."
We are for any man to take the
place of Coovert. He is not fit for
the position, and we are astonished
that the Republican party of this
county presents him for the "thiri
time"

gus votes from Preble county, one

The best answer to Senator Sher-
mans charge that the south continues
to be "held togetherin political fellow
ship by crimes. violence and frBud,"
is the record of the last election. The
Republican vote in the "solid south"
increased from s95, 7SS for Garfield to
1,044,532 for Blaine, thus showing a far
greater relative increase than in the
Republican vote in the north. Time
is doing its work well in the south,

should find subjects better worthy of
his attention than an issue that is dead.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer says
that a skating rink, established not
long since in Centralia, Ill.,-for the
roller skating craze is just now work
ing its way in that directien-has Gre
ateda great deal of trouble. One
child, Lille May Harris, a enticed
to ruin and her death eventually occa-
stoned by malpractice of quack
physician. The Rev. j. M. Green,
the pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, on Sunday last preached a
sermon on the subject of Kinks, tax
ing as his text, evil comm unica-
tons corrupt good manners" The
minister asserted that a prominent
doctor in the town had told him that
since the establishment Of the rink
no less than five young ladies had
applied to him for medicine with
which they might hide their shame
and crime by criminal abortion. The
doctor took up the rink question and
denounced its evil tendencies. "The
fate" he said, "of the babes of the
idolatrous Ammonites, who were
burned to askes in a brazed idol, was
o merciful one compared to that of
our young women who frequent the
skating rink to meet there the loss of
their virtue and purity" Mr.. Green
said while the Kinks refused admit
lance to "so!led doves"-openly
known to be bad girls-it admitted
the men who were their associates.
He closed by saying "if there was a
hand of an avenger which he could
kiss, it is the one that requites the
wrongs Of a virtue robbed daughter
or sister," This is plain talk.
