Young men who are about to east their
first vote should study we'll the reasons the
Democratic party has seen every other polit-
ical party born and die. They are we'll ex-
pressed in Senator Eustis' address to the
Tammany Society in New York on the Fourth
of July. Heret they are:
''The reason why the Democratic party has,
during such long period, continued to COM
mand the confidence and support of such a
large following is plainly manifest. 1t rep
resents the true principles of popular, repre-
sentative, constitutional government, and is
the only party which has ever existed in this
country that is honestly in close sympathy
with the interests and aspirations of the great
masses of the people. All its measures, poll
tics, methods and practices represent popular
sentiment and popular behests. It is the
only party that has ever shown its unreserved
and absolute confidence in the capacity of
the people for government"

We, the undersigned citizens of Find
lay, Ohio, wish to express in this man.
ner our appreciation of the good work
of the Medical Institute of Drs. B. s. &
Co. These gentlemen, we learn, have
done very large business in the treat
ment of chronic diseases, and deformi-
ties and have brought great many
patients from abroad here for treat
ment. We believe them to be respon-
sible and skillful and to be doing a
work very much needed as most of the
cases they treat are such as do not come
under the care of the general practi-
toner, and would be sent elsewhere
but for this institution. We voluntari-
ly give them this endorsement and
recommend them to the confidence of
the general public. s..... .,....

Catarr h Cant be Cured

with local application, as they cannot reach
the seat Of the disease. Catarrh is blood or
constitutional disease, and in order to cure
it you have to take internal remedies. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucus surface.
Halls Catarrh Cure is no quack medicine. It
was prescribed by one Of the best physicians
in this country for years, and is isaregular pre-
scription. It is composed Of the best tonics
known, combined with the best blood puri-
fers, acting directly on the mucus surface.
The perfect combination of the two isgre-
dients is what produces such wonderful re-
suits in curing catarrh. Send for testimon-

The Commission appointed by the Gov
ernor of Illinois to investigate the miners
trouble in the northern part of Illinois, have
come to the conclusion that it is impossible
for the miners to live on the wages offered
them and equally impossible for the operat-
ors to offer any better wages. The trouble
arises from the fact that coal can be mined
much more cheaply in southern Illinois and
there would seem to be nothing left for the
miners and operators in the north except to
give up their present occupation and seek
some other business. which will give them o
living. ',9'" 'H4f ~ 'laaUt

good plan to divide it through the middle and
put up swing there. When going full speed

"a James E. Campbell is winner. He
has been elected to Congress three times in a
Republican district and here is the estimate
of the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette, the
strongest Republican sheet in Ohio:
sit looks now as if James E. Campbell, of
Hamilton, would be the Democratic candi-
date for Governor Of Ohio. His strength is
not to be underrated by Republicans. He is
the strongest man the Democrats could run,
and it is probable they will have discretion
enough to nominate him. Republicans must
not suffer themselves to be deceived in re.
gard to the policy of their opponents"

a The Cedarville Herald strong Demo

port Campbell. Defiance Republican.
When the Republican published the above
it knew it was giving its readers downright
falsehood. The Cedarville Herald is not a
Democratic paper, but is small independ-
ent paper, with little or no standing, and has
about 4S0 circulation. AS usual the Republi-
cans have started in their campaign with ly-
ing, but the thing has got to be chestnut,
and the general people let it go into one ear

Indirect taxa ton burrows at the root
of the national prosperity, hiding it's ravage
from the public eye. The fact that the tax
payer is unconscious of this burden makes it
difficult to convince. .him'of the necessity for a
change. The extravaganza and increasing
cost of government are apparent enough; and
the shrinkage of the wages of labor and of
the value of factories and lands is patent to
everybody. The cause is excessive taxation.
The taxes in this country eat up every year 7
per cent. of the whole annual product of in
dustry. It is a good business, indeed, that
can stand such drain. Yet one-half of the
people at the late election voted against re-
trenchment, and to perpetuate system that
doubles the burden of taxation by filling pri-
vate pockets, as we'll as the public treasures,
out of the hard earnings of the people.
