Allen G.. Thurman was the author
Of the following plank in the Demo-
cratic platform of 1864. At that
time he was in accord with most of
the Democrats North and South
more especially South:
Resolved, That this Convention
does explicitly declare, as the sense of
the American people, that after four
years Of failure to restore the Union
by experiment of war, during which,
under the pretense Of military ne
cessity Of war power higher than
than the constitution, the constitu-
ton has itself been disregarded in ev-
cry part, and public liberty and pri-
vate right alike trodden down, and
the material prosperity Of the country
essentially impaired, justice, humani-
ty, liberty and the public welfare de-
mand that immediate efforts be made
for cessation Of hostilities, with a
view to an ultimate convention of all
the States, or other peaceable means,
to the end that, at the earliest possible
moment, peace may be restored on the
basis of the Federal Union of all the
States
Cleveland and Thurman and this
plank will carry every Southern State
in November.

They claim to have good joke on
Speelman, of the Coalton Times. Speel-
man had been away from Coalton sand
some of the boys knew he would be at
home on Saturday night on the ten o'clock
train. They gathered up crowd of
thirty or forty, and arming themselves
with cow bells and tin peddler's cart.
proceeded to the station to await the
coming of the train. When it stopped
and Mr.. Speelman had touched the plat
form, two stalwart fellows grabbed him.
threw him into the cart, and the balance
of the crowd set up the jingle of the bells,
crowded around it, and the man in the
shafts started towards Speelman's resi-
dence, the bell ringers following, no one
saying anything but everybody making
all the noise they could. By the time the
crowd got to Speelman's house it began
to dawn on him that it was not in disap-
proval of anything that had been said in
the Times, but because people were glad
to see him, that he was indebted for his
reception, and giving him final salute
with the bells they bade him goodnight.
Mr.. William w. Pierce, of Coal tp, was
in town Saturday. Mr.. Pierce is in his
list year, voted for VIM. Henry Harrison
in Franklin Co, Vermont, in 1910, and
is enthusiastic for Ben. Harrison now.
In the campaign of 1910, MI. Pierce be-
longed to famous Tippecanoe Glee Club
that spent nearly two months Immediate
ly preceding the election, travelling over
New England attending political meet
ings. In connection with the log cabin
and hard cider features of that campaign.
Mr.. Pierce relates the following, which is
in the nature of history and interesting.
The day following the nomination of Will
liam Henry Harrison for President, the
N. Y. Democratic State Central commit
tee was holding a meeting in New York
City and the Whig nomination came up
for discussion. Some Democrat whose
stock of information was not burdensome
spoke up and asked "Who is this Harrison
anyway, that the Wings have nominated
for President?" Another member of the
committee who was better Informed, but
who evidently did not foresee the figure
his reply was to cut in the campaign an
swered "Oh, he's farmer that lives out
West somewhere in log cabin and drinks
hard cider" A reporter for leading
Whig paper who was present caught the
idea and the next day half dozen prom
inent Whig papers had reports of the
meeting, together, with the log cabin and
hard cider dialogue, and inside of ten
days, so enthusiastically had the Wings
taken the cue. log cabins and barrels
of hard cider were being hauled through
the streets of every town in the country.

The Cleveland Leader has unearthed
the following forcible statement made by
the "Old Roman" in an interview at Put.
in-Bay August Is. 1875, when the divis-
ion of the school fund was one of the is
sues of the Hayes-Allen campaign:
"Yes, we shall lose the State; the id
priests have overdone the thing by stick
ing their noses into our politics, and they
deserve to be beaten to teach them their
place. The Democracy only have them
selves to blame in submitting to the de-
mands of the priests in the way they did.
1t was unfortunate, indeed, that the
Catholic question was lugged into the
campaign. The Democracy was the only
party that ever did anything for the
Catholics, and it would seem that the
more that is done for them the more they
will demand. Their arrogance is insult
ferable, and as we shall be defeated any
way, 1 hope it will teach these meddle-
some priests lesson that they will un-
derstand-that is, to let politics alone. 1
for one don't propose to stand any further
nonsense from these fellows"

Listen to the Waverly Watchman:
"Aspirants for Office can make up
their minds that hereafter they can
not depend on their party to pull
them through, under any and all cir
cumstances. Hereafter, candidates
for Office Especially county offices)
will find that they have to have other
backing beside their party's majority
to ensure them success at the polls
They will not only have to be backed
by good reputation for honesty, ca
pability, trustworthiness and fitness
but they will have to be possessed OF
the confidence and esteem Of the peo-
pie of the county to such degree
that they can command their support
at the polls in sufficient numbers te
secure success. The time has gone
by in this country when an irrespon-
sible, incompetent man can force him.

cause he is the nominee of the major.
ity party. The people are finding out
by sad experience that it does not pay
to let party prejudices blind them any
longer to the extent of electing dis.
honest, incompetent men to Office
simply because they are the nominees
of their party"
We fail to understand why it is not
important in Pike County to have
candidates for offices other than coun.
ty officers with decent regulations
but it seems that it is not. The De.
mocracy over that way is Of the simon
pure sort that no other recommends
tion heretofore has been nee
essary, than that the candi
date be Democrat. The Republi
cans who have walked into majority
of the good Offices over there, and thu
recent Democratic defaulter who go
away with everything in his offic'
that was not nailed down, are teach
ing the Democrats lesson.

manufacturers of German soap. Said
Mr.. Schwartz:
"'It would affect the soap interests
just as | think it would affect every
thing else. Laborers everywhere would
suffer and manufacturers also. The
farmers, too, would suffer, because
while they may be able to buy cheap
er, yet when they come to sell, the la
boring men would have no money,
and prices Of farm products would go
| down.
"'There are about 10000 laborers
engaged here directly in the manufac-
ture of soap, of which 1,O00,00O,OOO
pounds are made every year. The av-
erage of wages is $40 week. The
wages paid in England for the same
labor is $4.S5 per week. With this
duty of twenty per cent on soap for
eign soaps are barely kept out of the
market.
Foreign soap manufacturers have
to import great deal of tallow from
this country, the expectation for the
past six months alone amounting to
over 27,000,00O pounds-nearly 5,000,-
900 pounds month. Yet. in the face
of this fact, they are almost able to
bring the finished product back.
eff this duty of 20 per cent is re-
moved, and the price of labor keeps
up to anything like its present stan
dard, we would have to quit the busi-
ness. To-day soap is worth 81 SO a
hundred. Now, with the duty off,
the price would be reduced to some
where in the neighborhood of $.75
At this price we could not mafiufac-
ture at profit. The reduction would
ruin the soap industries of this coun-
try.
"'That is not all that is to be con-
sidered. There are connected indus
tries such as those manufacturing
caustic soda, alum and alkali. 1t is
proposed to tamper with these duties
in such a manner that they, being
new and just building themselves up,
would be seriously crippled and per-
haps ruined. This again would oper-

Inc OemOcratlc party is, Lnls early
in the campaign, finding out that tn
great fat fraud they elevated to tn,
Presidential chair four years ago is il
fair way to destroy all the chances
of success in the coming campaign
that they ever had. Under twenty
five years of Republican administra
ton the laboring class has received
high wages.for their labor and enjoyed
the benefits of protective system
that has given them plenty and abun
dance in their homes. The high re
muneration for labor has drawn tt
the United States thousands of hon.
est laborers from every foreign nation
who, with every year, have found theil
situation in life more and more toler.
able.
These people, together with every
native born American, have learned
that this condition of things has been
brought about and maintained by the
system of which the Republican par
ty is and always has been champion
and that the Democratic party in its
affiliations and professions always has
been and now is opposed to.
1t can not fail to attract the atten-
ton Of every foreign born citizen that
such representative English paper
as the London Times should say, af-
ter citing passages from Pres't Cleve-
lands message: 'sIt could hardly be
possible to put the free trade case
more strongly or clearly. The argu-
ments which Mr.. Cleveland uses are
those which any English free trader
would use. They are purely free trade
arguments and as such we are very
glad to see President Cleveland using
them, though sorry for the infatua-
tion that makes it dangerous to give
them their right name" 1t really is
too bad that the Democracy and En-
glish free traders can not preach their
pernicious doctrines without causing
American working-men to take alarm.
With all the Atlantic coast within six
days travel of London and Liverpool,

sTANDARD.JOURNAL.

1t had been our intention to issue the
first number of the Standard-Journalt this
week. In addition to fine new Camp
bell press we have purchased folder,
and will, when we commence the new
issue, print, cut, paste and fold the paper,
by steam power. Owing to the fact that
the folder, although shipped on the 11th
of this month, did not reach here until
last Saturday evening, it became impos-
sible to print the new paper this week.
The first issue will be made. however. on
August 1st We shall send sample copy
to each of the subscribers of the old pa
pers. as we'll as to many others. There
are many subscribers to both the Stand
ard and Journal who are in arrears on
subscription. Carefully examine the Ia
bel on your pager. and, if found behind.
send us the amount due and $1.50 for the
new paper. Owing to our new purchases
we need every dollar due us, and If each
subscriber will, as soon as he reads this,
at once forward US what he now owes,
and new subscription, it will greatly
benefit us. Subscriptions due on both
the Standard and Journal are payable to
this company. The rule that subscrip-
tions must be paid in advance will here
after be strictly adhered to. 1t will harm
no subscriber and we know it will save
us money. We shall print 5000 copies of
the Standard-J Journal, and it will be by
far the best advertising medium in the
county. Advertisers will take notice of
this. Come early with advertisements.
Those who first apply will have choice of
location.

per will do well to commence with the

not fail to send the money.

The Mills tariff bill passed the House
of Representatives Saturday, by vote of
1852 to 149. As applied to Jackson Coun-
ty the meaning of that vote is to take
from five to seven thousand dollars out
of the pockets of the Jackson county
wool growers next year. Mr.. Randall
who is admitted upon all hands, to be the
ablest Democrat in the House, has stead
fastly opposed this tariff measure and
was paired with a friend of the measure,
which amounts to vote against it.
