When at Defiance Judge Foraker
was asked what his position on pro-
hibition and local option was he said:
"We are neither for nor. against pro-
hibition, because we want to Keep it
out of politics. These reforms get
along best when left to the people, and
we do not want to turn any Democrat
who might favor it against it because it
is a Republican measure. If the
Republican party gets into power
this winter they will re-enact the Scott
law. with the local option clause, at
once, and under that every municipali-
ty can have absolute prohibition
if they so desire. Under, that
thirty citses and towns in Ohio had
absolute prohibition. In Montpelier,

just cut of town to avoid the law, but
died in two weeks, because none but
Democrats would go SO far for drink"

Politics Is nothing but q struggle be-
tween the powerful and the weak-a
contest between the rich and the poor.
Capital and labor should be friends,
when wholesome laws control and gov
ern the relations between them. 1t Is
only when legislation is enacted to adj
vance capital at the expense Of labor,
that the relations between the to become
strained and unnatural. The legisla-
ton, National and State, for twenty
four years, has been largely, in the
hands of the Republican party. The
policy of that party has been, and is, to
FOSTER capital, invite extravagant I'M
vestment, and incite it to the formation
Of fsyndicatest and large and grasping
corporations. The evidences of these
facts are so patent, that it would be q
folly and burden to strengthen them
by illustration. The policy of the
Democratic party has been, and is, to
conform the relations of capital to the
just rights Of labor; not by expressing
the former, or enacting laws that en-
danger its safety, but by an adjustment
Of the rights Of each on the most equi-
table basis. A studied effort was
made by the last Legislature to pro-
tect labor. and to insure to the labor
ing men the rights which common
humanity no less than his personal re-
quirements demanded for him. The
administration Of President Cleveland
exhibits the keenest sense ofjustice on
this subject, and its action as to the
public domain, which it demands shall
be held in reserve for the laboring men
Of the country, evidences its desires and
intents, while the forfeitures it has
claimed from the great railroad COM
panies, which were subsidized by the
Republican party, attests its determine
ton to hold the great railroads to
strict observance Of the conditions
which accompanied their incorporation.
The democracy will protect the weak
against the strong, and will jealously
guard the rights of the many against
the grasping disposition of the few.

AS will be seen, this substance is the
basis of nearly all modern explosives
It is made of nitric acid one part, and
sulphuric acid two parts, to which is
added ordinary glycerine, and the mix
ture is well washed with pure water.
Being a liquid it can not be used for
many purposes to which gun-cot-
ton is applied. In 1868 Nobel, of
Sweden, found that it required a
conclusion or suddenly applied force
to explode it, and from this he
proceeded to place the nitro lycerine in
a vessel or bore-hole for blasting, and
exploded in or near it a large percus-
sion cap or charge of gunpoWder In
1866 Colonel Shaffner discovered that
nitro glycerine was too much concen-
trated in the bore-hole, SO he mixed
it with sand. Nobel went step further,
and used infusorial earth, which is
found in large quantities in Holland.
This infusion is composed of small,
microscopic silicious shells, which have
lost their living creatures in the UNI
known ages of the past. The cellular
parts receive the nitro-glycerine and
hold it by capillary attraction, both in
side and out. The earth is very light.
