stay the friend held an ivory peanut in

caught. The next day he paid the fine

he found himself wedgcd In great

Frcnchman; and pay lie did. Again,
he was at Long Branch. He had for
gotten about the peanut and was dis
porting in tho. waves a long way from

great and exalted feeling. When

came across the words. They ut once

The words rang in my ears. At Glas-

Moody preached from the twenty-third
psalm of David. He touched the hearts
OF the people. When he was about to
close his sermon I did not know what
to sing. i wanted to select something
appropriate to the sermon, but found
nothing suitable. Those grand words.

Moody closed with them, acted as an
inspiration. l hastily pulled the crum-
pied newspaper from my pocket and
sang the words OF sThe Ninety and

through, and afterwards wrote the

Jolly Frenchman.
Some young men are so deeply dis
appointed in life at the age of twenty
that they think the promises of child
hood broken. At the age of thirty
these same men may say: swell, it
isn't so bad 1t is really what per-
son makes it, after all; SO let us make
the best of it," That was the way
with n gentleman who died in New
York not long ago. The gentleman
was Frenchman. In order that he
might brighten life, he organized the
"Pea-nut Club" Let no boy for an
instant fancy that this was club at
which the members ate ground-nuts.
The club was very simple. Each men,
ber carried about HMM his waist
coat pocket or fastened as "charm"
to his watch-chain-a piece of ivory
shaped and colored like q peanut.
The point was this: Every member
was bound to produce his charm wh6n-
ever and wherever another member
should challenge. If Mr.. A., meeting
Mr.. b., should hold up to view the bit
of ivory, then Mr.. b. was bound to do
the same, or else pay the fine. At first
the fine was one dollar; afterward the
fine was fixed at five dollars. The
fines were paid into the clubs purse.

Republican Duplicity.

John Sherman opened the Republican
State campaign once more last night at
Portsmouth. 1t appears that the cam
paign requires good deal of opening
this year, or else it won't stay opened,

course of the distinguished gentleman's $
remarks 1t is said that he "touched upon
the failure of the Democracy to restore
the tariff on WOOL" For a specimen of
cold, monumental gall, this certainly
takes the whole bakery! How does Z
come that 'the tariff on wool" needs

The financial part Of Governor For
aker's speech at Columbus so far MS
it related to the Ohio Ponitcntiary. con-
tanned some very ingeniously arranged
figures. OF course, Governor Foraker
is not responsible for their arrangement
somebody else misplaced and improp-
erly arranged them.
The main point at Issue in the arrange
ment Of the figures was to show that
during two years of Democratic admin
istration the penitentary lost 1906, ,061,
while under four years of Republican
administration It cleared 9212,000. The
official figures on file with the proper
State officers do not show this, Of
course, and no one would suspect Gov
ernor Foraker of making them tell q
crooked story. The question is: Who
deceived aud misled the Governor?
In his speech Governor Foraker dwelt
particularly on the fact that when the
Foster Administration turned the peni-
tentiary over to Hoadly 1t was clearing
S53, 900 n year with becoming regularity.
This, it will be remembered. is the
strong point in Governor Foraker s
speech. Now let us see how completely
the official figures put this fairy story
down. quote the exact official figures,
losses and permanent improvements dur
ing the four years of Foster, on the same
basis that Governor Foraker figures dur
ing Hoadly's Administration. These
figures are as follows:

THE REPUBLICAN, PARTY
Is the Party of Hollow and False Pre-
lenses.

Is the Party of Hollow and False Pre-
lenses.
1t is the enemy of the laboring man,
and all business men.
The Republican party is the party Of
monopoly and favoritism in govern
ment, enacting laws that rob labor and
honest business and make millionaires,
hence pauperism.
The Republican party of Ohio, true to
its fraudulent claims and pretentions,
sets up in its fifth plank of its platform,
that it is the friend of labor, and favors
protecting the laboring man from dam
gerous foreign competition, etc.
The Republican party has promoted
and encouraged dangerous foreign
competition, in enacting laws to allow
contracts to that end, and for long years
refusing to prevent the importation of
Chinese coolies.
Republican party policy has oppressed
labor, brought on financial crisis, dis
turbed values to the ruin of labor and
honest business; spread pauperism and
filled the land with tramps, and render
ed labor and its rewards alarmingly
precarious.
The Republican party is the party of
injustice; opposes equal taxation and
equal privileges before the law. Its
'protection" only means monopoly and
robbery of labor and honest business,
in proof of which one only need poi mt
to the fact that labor, under its policy,
is more uncertain and worse paid than
it ever was under the just Democratic
revenue tariff of 1916.
The Republican party, in power twen-
ty-four years, continues its policy by a
Repu lcan Senate. Its enormous war
taxes are still the same, expressing all
labor, and unfavored business and in
dustries. Like the Tory party of Brit
ain, this Republican party forgets moth
ing and learns nothing. 1t adheres to
its wicked Chinese policy and "protcc-
ton" Notwithstanding the ruinous re-
suits upon labor. Once the United
States had ships that carried our COM
merce to all lands, and now little Greece
is ahead of us. Such is the result of
Republican policy:
A Republican Congress reduced the
tariff on farmers wool, Senator Shcr-
man voting therefor, all TO please the
monopolists that control the party in
and out of Congress. This party in
Ohio pretend they would restore the
wool tariff of 1867, when they know
they can not If they would. and would
not if they could. The Republican is
the party of hollow and false pretcnse.

Add to this the $l4O, 956.57 of losses
