From the extensive arrangements beln
made, this promises to be the most con-
prehensive and enjoyable entertainment
of the kind yet held in this country.

extensive birthday gathering at hi

but could not make it convenient to b
there.

As there won't be offices enough to 60

dads" dispose of the troublesome bust
mesa.
When farmers are prosperous, every
body is prosperous. We therefore owe
everything to good weather. which
produces good crops. The farmers, or
rather the good weather, is the "power
behind the throne" that makes the ma
ton prosperous, happy and contented.
Miss Maggie Kline is acting as Deputy
P. NJ. in the place of Isaac Neal, who
has ''turned himself out" to fix up his
fences for the Authorship of Preble
county. Wonder if President Cleveland
wouldn't look upon this AFFAIR." in the light
of Offensive partisanship" and demand
a change?
DR.. Geo. E. Fullerton, of Cincinnati,
has purchased the drug establishment of
DR.. j. K: Miller. DR.. Fullerton is a reg
ular graduate of Pharmacy and thorough
ly understands the drug business, and
can be safely relied upon in compound
ing prescriptions. Give him a call. You
will find him q pleasant gentleman to
deal with.

vinegar, call at the grocery OF D. Sharkey.
Only 25 cents per gallon.
Advertising by means of hand bills is
q very effective way of reaching the pub
lie if distributed correctly, but nine
tenths of them put into the hands of the
average boy might just as well be put in
to the stove and burned up. Fully that
number are thrown into the yards when
they are blown away and accomplish no
good whatever. They should be distri-

1t is reported that Mart. Randall, of
Eldorado, will be offered as a candidate
for Sheriff at the Republican county
convention. MART would make a very
efficient and liberal Sheriff, and if a Re-
publican must fill the place, would please
Democrats better than "any other man"
in the county. He wouldn't be officially
q lei and Offensive partisan" No
man who carries with him into a pub
lie Office his petty partisanism is fit for
the place. We mean Democrat or Repub-
lican.

In the call published last week for a
Democratic county convention. to meet in
Eaton on the 2sth inst, a intake was
made in the apportionment of Delegates
each Township should select. Instead
of So as published in the call, it should
be 100. We hope Democrats will bear in
mind the convention and turn out and
make it a large representative gathering
of the Democracy of Preble county. Lib
eral Republicans are cordially invited,
and all in favor of running the public of.
fees in the interest of the people.
The Eaton Democrat indicates, occasional.
", that it is in favor of temperance, yet it op.
poses prohibition or taxation.-GreenUiIlt
Courier.
That is true, the DEMOCRAT is in favor
of temperance, but don'ttake much stock
in Prohibition, only when it assists in
turning out of public places rascally and
thieveing Republicans, or I'VE doodle
Democrats. We are in favor of a consti
tutional license law to control the liquor
business, and liberal enough to allow the
Prohibitionists to go on and succeed il
they can, without heaping abuse upon
them as a party organization.
Table Linen a speciality at Craik's.-

The gradual gro With of Eaton is plainly
to be seen in the continued increase o
new firms and the trade and traffic of the
old business houses, many of which il
the past five years have doubled theil

We have in Eaton 2 Banks, 8 jewelry
establishments, 5 dry goods stores, l,
groceries, 2 hardware stores, 4 dru,
stores, 5 millinery establishments, 2 mer
