Platform.


IndOrSe Shermar's Candidacy.---The
Platform.
The Ohio republican state convention
was held at Dayton on the 10Th inst with
f. L. Sampson in the chair.
Ex-Gov. Foster, chairman of the COM
mittee on resolutions, read the report,
which. in brief, reailirms the platform of
1887, adopted by the republican party of
Ohio in convention at Toledo, and pre-
sents the usual declarations:
First free and untrammeed suffrage
lies at the foundation of the republic, and
its restoration bv every constitutional
means in states where it has been over
thrown or impaired and IFS maintenance
| everywhere Is our settled and determined
purpose. We charge that the democratic"
party i now in the endowment of power
confessedlv procured nv the unlawful SUP
preston Of the franchise in the southern
| states, and we demand OF congress that in
| the exercise Of its constitutional nuthori-
| ~ it enact such laws ms will insure free
| dom ana fairness in the election of repre-
| sentatives 10 congress.
Second, we favor such economic legisla-
tion as will protect all American indus
| tries that can be prolitahly pursued bv
American citizens. We insist that our
producers are entitled TO the control of
their own markets 20 the extent of their
| efforts TO open those markets TO competi-
! ton with the cheap labor and abun-
| dant capital Of foreign nations as hostile
| to the interests OF labor and destructive
TO national and individual prosperity. We
| regard the last annual message of the
president and the recent action of the ma.
| ioritv of tho ways and means committee
| as a direct and open assault upon these
| industries which will, if unresisted. result
| in introducing policy of free trade that
in the near future will paralyze or destroy
our own industries and impoverish the
| nation.
Third-It is the duty of congress to pass
and the president TO approve, wise, just
| and comprehensive pension hill, without
| regard TO the time when the disability of
| the soldier was incurred or the cause of
death.
Fourth-Th people of Ohio unqualified
| ly condemn the refusal of the democratic
majority of the house of representatives
| to permit the passage of the direct tax re-
| funding bill.
The convention endorsed John Sher-
mans candidacy for president.
Daniel j. Ryan was nominated for secre-
tarv of state, Judge Bradbury for Justice
| of the supreme court, Wells :. Jones for

The LIQUOR Law AGAIN.

In March last complaint was filed in the
circuit court of Newaygo county against
"A druggist for selling whisky as a bever-
age. 1t was quashed by the judge upon
the ground that the supreme court had
declared section of the liquor law of 1887
unconstitutional. A motion was argued
in the supreme court to compel the circuit
Judge TO withdraw the order. This has
been granted by the court, and in connec-
ton says that: THE circuit judge misap-
pretended the effects of the decision. We
held the forfeiture of the business clause
to be invalid but further held that the
new taxes and penalties not involving the
peculiar disabilities named are valid as
well as the new method OF prosecution in
the upper instead of the police courts.
This fine and imprisonment may seem UNI
usually severe, yet it lies entirely within
the discretion OF the legislature to impose

A claimant to the site of Sault Ste. Marie
has turned up in Winnipeg. James Van

the land on which the town is built. He
died intestate, leaving two heirs-a son
and the mother of Van Rensselaer,. The
son sold the land without administering
the estate, and gave titles in his own name
to property in which he only had half
interest. Van Rensselaer, now claims his
share of the property, amounting to half
of the town. lie has gone TO Sault Ste

There is many farmers wife who might by q
more active use o. her brains employ labor for the
coarse drudgery with which she is now overtaxed
and developed some one of the many resources OF
the farm into good source of Independent income.
But there is not sufficient Indictment to undertake
and experiment of herself Gf indeed she has her
freedom to do sol without the control of the money
earned If she is to be restrained from all right to
freedom Of action in pecuniary matters, and, kept
in the condition of child she will have something
of the helplessness of child But the best interests
of the family will certainly be promised by her i'm
proving whatever talents God has given her and
reaching her fullest development and Highest &C
