As Seen by a Republican.

The Chicago Tribune, the leading
Republican paper of the West, says OF
Harrison, the Republican nominee for
President, that he is unpopular ut
home and diAliked abroad; not sup
ported by any German newspaper, or
recognized by any German leader in
the United States; not numbering
among his close friends one man who
ever served with him in the Senate of
the United States; hated in California
because he voted fourteen times against
the restriction of Chinese immigration;
opposed in his own State because he is
cold and distant in his manner, and
identified with every public act which
has ever been adopted which could
wound the sensibilities of voters not
numbered among his own particular
clique in the Republican party; hav-
ing strong support among politicians,
but little among the rank and file OF
the party" That appears to size up
the Republican candidate about as ae-
curately as any Democrat could hope
to do it.-6. Louis Repabhc.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1888-07-21
THE COMING CAMPAIGN.
1t Will Be n Battle Upon u Higher Tha
u Personal Plane.

1t Will BE Battle Upon Higher Than
Personal Plane.
"The sober second thought" to use
trite saying, of the Republican party
of the country evidently does not bring
with it feeling of elation over the
nomination of General Harrison to the
Presidency. That he is q weak candi-
date in great party crisis is patent to
the observant among those on whom he
must rely for support.
During his political career he has
never demonstrated his ability to carry
Indiana against a united Democracy.
He was elected to State Office in 1860,
when the Republican party was united
on one candidate for the Presidency,
while the Democracy were divided be-
tween. two, with Bell and Everett, q
fourth combination, draining the
divided party Of conservatives who
were not wholly satisfied with either
Douglass or Breckenridge. In 1864 he
was elected Reporter of the Supreme
Court in the midst of the excitement of
the war.
In 1876 he was overwhelmingly de-
feated by "Blue-Jeans Williams for
Governor. Four years later Demo-
cratic dissension permitted the election
Of Republican Legislature. General
Harrison, who had not been mentioned
as candidate, was fortunate enough
to capture the caucus nomination for
Senator.
In 1886, when he was pronounced
candidate to succeed himself in the
Senate, and when local feuds among
the Democrats were ut u high pitch,
he was defeated, and Judge Turpie, q
Democrat, succeeded him.
His vote against the Chinese Restric-
ton bill invited the implacable HOSTILE
ty of California and the Pacific slope.
His attitude on the bill legalizing the
importation of pauper labor from
Europe under contract will weaken
him everywhere that American labor
has been subjected to this unnatural
and un-American competition.
The labor organizations in his own
State and throughout the country rec
ognize in him the persistent and un-
compromising opponent of such organ
izations.
But this is not to be campaign of
personalities. The battle will be upon
u higher plane, and the overshadowing
issue will be that Of the tariff. Cincin-
natl Enquirer.

A Most Emphatic Refusal.

A fast young man decided to make
to IL young lady formal offer of his
hand and heart-all he was worth
hoping for cordial reception. He
cautiously prefaced his declarations
with few questions, for he had no in
tention of ''throwing himself away"
Did she love him well enough to live in
IL cottage with him? Was she good
cook? Did she think it u wifes duty
to make home happyP Would sha
consult his tastes and wishes concern
ing her associates and pursuits in life?
Was she economically Could she make
her own clothes, etet The young lady
said that before she, answered his ques-
tions she would assure him Of some
negative virtues she possessed. She
never drank, smoked or chewed; never
owed q bill to her iaundress or tailor;
never stayed out all night playing bill
liards; never lounged ON the street
corners and ogled giddy girls; never
''stood in" with the boys for cigars and
wine suppers. "Now," said she, rising
Indignantly, IL am assured, by those
who know, that you doall these things,
and it is rather absurd for you to eX-
pect all the virtues in me, while you
do not possess any yourself. can
never be your wife, and she bowed
him out and left him on the cold door
step, Il madder If not wiser man.

Ine True HISTORY OI u
mated Optic.
"How did it happen9" asked the Ser
geant at the Woodbridge street station,
as a man with black eye entered the
office.
"That's what came to explain, sir,
for don't want you to think it was my
fault. was down here by the depot,
l wanted drink, went into saloon.
While was drinking man steps up
and says: Can you change me fifty
dollar BILL says: i can't Says
he: You are a iar.' Says l: 4 beg
your pardon
ayes"
''Then finished my beer and the
man says: Il can do you up in two min
utes.' Says 1: 4 begs your pardon, but
/ am no fighter You look like the
man who robbed my mothers grave.
says he, 'and I've got to smash YOU
Upon my soul you are mistaken says
l; i am from Canada only this MORN
ing, and would scorn to rob IL grave"
II see.'
"'Tll lick you,' says he. 4 begs
your pardon, but don't, says 1. Put up
your dukes, says he. Ileft 'em at home,'
saysI. Take that, says he, as he gave
me this poke in the optic. I'll go to the
police says l. Do says he, and he
gives me kick to help me along.
