OhIo's "Young Democracy"


The "Young Democracy" of Ohio is an
organization of cheek, avarice, palsied old
age and general cussedness, with the
Standard Oil.monopoIy for its foundation
and the insignificant little JOHNNY Mclean
for its most conspicuous ornament. These
"young Democrats" lately signalized their
accession 10 power by elecling Henry B
Payne, a man much older than Thurman,
to the Senate, and last fall, under their
corrupt and reckless rule, the party at
large came very near being swamped by
their overwhelming defeat in October.
Mr.. Cleveland owes nothing to any Of
these whiffets old or Young. Politics is a
business with them. They are selfish, vim
dictlve, unscrupnlous and audacious
They have assassinaled Thurman and PEN

will presently seek to destroy HIM If they
cannot use him. The interests of good

A Republican Dilemma.


The Republicans are in an amusing
dilemma respecting the civil service policy
of the new administration. Ii the reform
ideas expressed by the President and his
cabinet are absolutely carried out, the adj
miaistratiOn will be greatly strengthened
with the people. That is something the
Republicans do not desire. But the direct
result of that policy would be TO keep
hundreds of Republicans in federal Offices
That is something the Republicans do de-
sire. The policy that helps Republicans
IN Office will also help the Democratic
party. Was there ever such a situation
before? We believe not.
To more fully comprehend the situation
the fact should not be lost sight of that
Senator Pendleton's Civil Service law was
mainly carried by the Republican mem
bers of both Houses OF Congress. II we
remember correctly the majority OF Demo
Gratis opposed the measure, but II was car
riei and made law by the votes OF Re
publicans. Gen. Logan In his Toledo
speech in the campaign last fall emphasiz-
ed the quesllon-"why can't parties he

il, why can't they?

II man started 10 read this collection

II will be seen that it is idle TO think
of reading everything, or even to read
all the best books. The greaiesl readers
among our distinguished men have had
their favorile hooks. which they read
and reread. Certain books In our lang
uage are called classics. They are mod

authors and get Jumps Of solid gold which
they proceed 10 beat out very thin. Why
