The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1889-05-18

The men had simply been duped
by scandalous trick and the part
les to the fraud laughed at the sim
plicity of their dupes.
When the operators were ready
to reopen the mines they fixed a
new scale of wages, which the men
refused to accept. Harrison is the
president and the high protective
tariff saved, but the operators in
sisted on u cut in wages of from 90
to % per cent, the heaviest cut
ever made in the state. The oper-
ators throughout the state made
common cause against the men and
insisted on the reduction. For
two days of this week the opera
tors and the miners were in con-
ference at Brazil, Clay county, the
men proposing that the difference
between them be submitted to
arbitration. The operators would
not consent to arbitration and told
the men they could either take the
reduced wages or go without work.
What have the Indiana miners
benefited by the election of Harri-
son and the continuance Of high
protection? That which was
threatened as the result of the cleo
tion of Cleveland and the possible
passage of the Mills bill has be-
fallen upon the election of Harrison
and the defeat of the Mills bill.
They have learned by sad eXper-
ience that their employers resorted
to dirty trick during the cam
paign to induce them to vote a
gainst their own convictions and
interests.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Democratic Candidates.
The Men Who viii Lead the Demo-
cracy to Victory in Noyemb-
er Next.
An Exceptionally Strong Ticket.

The result of the Primaries on
the 4th inst is all that any Demo-
crat could wish, and the ticket as a
whole should receive the united
support of every Democrat in the
county. The canvass was more
free than usual from that warmth
and bitterness which usually char
acterizes campaigns in which COM
petitors are so numerous.
That the whole ticket will be
elected goes without saying, while
the personal worth and popularity
of the men should restore our
Democratic majority to its old
time figure.

The PeNnle MOckel.

The election of Harrison may
prove benefit to the country after
all, though not in the way to graft
fly his supporters. For the sake of
creating popular sympathy the Re-
publicans adopted last fall several
rallying cries, like "The Tariff is a
question of wages" "The American
market for Americans,""A pension
for every soldier" Penny postage"
and so on. If the Republicans had
been defeated they might have
worked their sentiments with some
effect hereafter but Il Republican
administration is exposing their
hollowness every day.
Before Harrison was seated,
wages began to go down with a
rush in the very industries most af-
fected by tariff. He had not been
seated long before he appointed
delegates to a convention of coun-
tries on the two continents of
America to discuss intercommer-
cial affairs; and this was done sup
Elementary to the talk before his
inauguration about his intention to
make the annexation of Canada
and Cuba the two distinguishing
features through which his admin
istration should be celebrated in
history.
The pension deception was dis
covered recently, when the organ
of the manufactures who contribut-
ed the 100000 credited to Wana-
maker boldly said, "the time has
come to put knife into this pen
sion business" whereupon the
Leader and other papers of its sub
s0rvient ilk took the cue and jn-
formed their readers that the SER
vice pension is "injurious to the
moral sense of the people and OPP
posed to wise public polity."
Wanamaker, who went into the
office as postmaster general con-
vinced that penny postage is the
crying need of this country, comes
out and not only says as business
man that it is impracticable but
takes the Democratic ground that
the thing to do in the interest of
the people is to extend and inn
prove the service.
Every day it remains in power
the palmer it becomes to every
body that the Republican party is
a party of false pretences. -Four
years will make this so certain
that when the Democrats return to
power in 1898 it will be useless for
the Republican pharisees to at
tempt to dislodge them.-Cleveland
Plain Dealer

Our candidate for Representa-.
tive was born on the banks of the
Muskingum River, in Mogan Co.
o., twenty-nine years ago, and
came to Hooking County in 1862
when two years old, and he resi-
ded in this county ever since. On
arriving at his majority he espons-
ed the cause of Democracy his first
and every succeeding vote being
cast for the candidates of that
party.
Two years ago he was elected to
the Office of Solicitor for the town
of Logan, and served with ability.
AT the election this spring he was
defeated for re- election by a COM
bination of local causes and not
from any fault found in the fulfil
ment of his official trust.

eloquent stumper and persistent
worker for the Democratic cause.

Secretary Noble Receives Letter That
is Masterpiece Of Rillingsgate.
THE REprnLIcAN BrREAr


The REPUBLICAN BUREAU,
Goa. IA ST. & PENNSYLVANIA AVE.
WASHINGTON Oct. %, 1889.
In these dispatches in last Sundays
Republic, caustic letter, resigning a
special pension inspectorship, written
by Vim. W. Thompson of Albany, \.
", to Hiram Smith. Jr., deputy com
missioner of pensions, was quoted.
The publication OF the letter made
Noble mad and he addressed what he
considered crusher to Mr. Thomp-
son. In Mr.. Thompson's letter of
resignation, it viii be remembered he
expressed his opinion of MIR. Noble
very freely and said among other
thing that the duties of his office were
"to peep into the back yards of
veterans and reduce or deprive them
Of pensions, Thompson is an Albany
attorney of good repute. and is very
influential in the councils of the Re
publican party. He is very warm
friend of Tanner and was appointed
to office by Tanner. He did not re
sign until Tanner wass downed by
Noble. The Secretary of the Interior
did not pay any attention to Thomp-
sons letter of resignation until he
saw it in print in The Republic. Then
he sat down and addressed this letter
to Thompson:
SECRETARY MOBILES LETTER.
Dept OF THE INTERIOR, WASHINGTON
Oct. 81. William w. Thompson, Esq,
Albany: DEAR SIR have received
letter addressed by yoG to Hon.
Hiram Smith, Jr., deputy commits
sloner of pensions. In this document
you endeavor to resign, but inasmuch
as you have not had the intelligence
to direct your paper to
the only person who can accept your
resignation, and it is handed to me
by MIR. Smith, | beg leave to inform
you that your intended resignation
is not accepted; but as you are there
by shown to be both slanderer and
one wholly unfit for the services of
the United States, you are dismissed
and your services are no longer re
quired. Very respectfully,
JOHN W. NOBLE,
Secretary.

MR.. THoMPsoN's REPLY.

This was huckleberries for Thomp-
son. 1t gave him just the opportun-
ity to skin Noble that he was looking
for. Noble is pretty good at billings
gate at times, but at his best he is no
match for Thompson. Besides, Thomp-
son, as firm personal friend of the
prosecuted Corporal, had grievance
against the Brigadier, as nearly all of
Tanners friends have, and no doubt
he took much pleasure in addressing
this letter to Noble, which the Sec
rotary of the Interior received to-day:
ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. THE Hon.
John w. Noble, Secretary, etc.-SIR:
Your letter under date of October %,
1889, just received. 1t lacks dignity,
responsibility and exhibits the writer
IN his true character. [ am free to
say, personally you are puppet; of
ficially a sycophant and lickspittle;
and individually a coward and craven.
! dislike to waste postage on you, but
! simply desire to say ! will place my
letter and all my relations with you
before the President. If he sustains
you, as / suppose he will, / shall be
DOLLY confirmed in the general conclu-
sion that he has selected you and
some others of your calibre, to mis-
represent the men who made it pos
sible for Benjamin Harrison to insult
the nation by putting you in a place
and power which neither your SER
vices nor character could justify, and
which your whole personality is proof
positive that violence to every sense
of decency and propriety was attend
ed by your selection. Any effort on
your part to torture your brief author
ity to iniure any respectable citizen
will be in keeping with your vindic-
tive and pusillanimous nature and
will surprise no one who has gagged
your lack of manliness.
Yours with contempt,
WM. w. THOMPSON
1t is not likely that Noble will re
spond to Thompson's last letter, but
if he does your correspondent is as
sured that the Albany patriot has
some fancy adjectiyes in pickle fol-
him. The intense hatred OF Noble b.
Tanners friends, and the privates Of
the Grand Army generally, is the
most remarkable manifestation of q
split among the pretorians since theil
organization decade and half ago
Noble is afraid of personal violence
and SO is Busy, and neither of tht
brigadiers expose themselves much
after dark, or where people do mos
pongregate,

The Amye. Of TIE Te.en.ents.

Miss Octavia Hill induced some be-
nevolent London ladies to visit certain
tenement houses in the West End.
They found them filed with hundreds
OF ruined, reckless, depraved human be-
mgs, representing the infinite grades
OF sin and suffering, and all crowded to-
gether in mental and physical deprav-
ltv, to the exclusion of every uplifting
influence. AS rooms were vacated, a
transformation began to take place, new
glass was put in the windows, bright
paper decorated the walls, and, when
possible, tenants out of work were en-
ployed in making the alterations. The
girls were persuaded into giving the
nails weekly scrubbjng, and basement
families were in time induced to move
up INTO the light. One poor woman de-
INJURED, because her children would
make such poor appearance up there
IN the sunlight. Now these tenements
nave reading-room, and an evening as
well as a Sunday-schoQl.
