old.L,ne Dom ocra,s for Neal.

The nomination of James E. Camp
bell for governor by the Democrats at
Dayton occasioned no surprise to those
who have been Watching events. He
was the candidate Of the gang that is
now in control Of Democratic affairs in
Ohio and as such had little trouble in
securing the nomination, in spite of the
determined opposition of the mossback
element. who presented an almost solid
front for Neal.
A candidate who is backed by the
tally-sheet gang Of Ohio, to which cling
all the odium and disgrace that crime
and political tr;ckery can impart, will
have rough road to travel to reach the
gubernatorial chair.
This fact must be kept in mind, how
ever, that the Democracy, aided by the
gang" will make desperate effort to
win this fall and will resort to any
measures to accomplish their purpose.
The Republicans must not be idle. The
campaign will be hard fought, but with
our gallant leader and the earnest sup
port of every Republican, we will win q
glorious victory.

Does Not Com maud Approval.

The editor Of The Dayton Democrat
attended the meeting Of the National
Editorial association in Detroit. al
though the state convention Of his own
party was held in his own town at the
same time. To Detroit reporter he
said that he was not in sympathy with
the candidate his party intended to
nominate or the platform it intended to
adopt. So he hastened to meet with q
body whose aims did command his ap-
proval, allowing 'the boys to run the
paper" in his absence. Thus does the
Democratic party get together in Ohio.

FREE TRADE AND ELECTION FRAUDS
The Issue Must Not be Ignored BY the
Voters Of ohio.

The Issue Must Not be Ignored BY the
Voters Of ohio.
1. The Democratic party Of its state con-
vention made the Cleveland Mills free.trade
program the leading plank Of its platform.
2. The free trade journals throughout the
country have everywhere hailed that plat
form with expressions of approval and de-
light.
8. The Democratic journals Of Ohio are
calling upon the people to vote for theticket
their disapproval Of the protectionist policy
which prevailed in the election last fall.
I. The supporters Of the Mills bill every
where assert that the success Of the Demo-
cratic party in this state will mean that the
people have become enamored Of the free
tradeism in that bill.
8. The senate tariff bill Is not yet law,
and Democratic victory in Ohio will mean
that the people Of this state condemn the
policy Of that bill which is to revise the
tariff on protectionist principles.
9. An election for United States senator
is involved in the pending contest, and o
single vote In that body may determine
whether the senate is on the side of Ameri.
can or Of British production.
4. A vote Of Ohio for free trade now
could not but have most depressing effect
upon the friends Of protection in the general
congressional elections which are to take
place only year hence
g. For Democratic success In Ohio this
fall win be taken as Endorsement OF the key
note uttered by Chairman Harter that what
the people want is "a good dose Of free
trade"
Upon the above The Ohio State
Journal says:
II is true, that there are important
state questions pending, and none more
important than whether the legislation
designed to protect the purity of the
ballo-tbox in Ohio shall stand or fall.
These issues will by no means be neg
lected on the Republican side, as they
embody more distinctly than ever before
the issue between fairness, honesty and
electoral integrity on the one hand, and
fraud. forgery and ballot-box stuffing
on the other.
But the issue between the friends and
enemies Of Ameri ,an industry has also
been made too distinct by the con.
clave at Dayton to be for moment neg
lected or ignored. Indeed fraud and
free trade are both members of the same
iniquitous family and work together
hand in hand. One-third of the vote
for the Mills bill in the last congress
was the ugly product Of Democratic
fraud and rape upon the southern bal
lot-boxes, and the ringsters in Ohio are
crashing their teeth at the laws which
block the way of the fraud that would
send free trader from Ohio to the sen.
ate Of the United States. The instincts
and intellects Of the people are keenly
alive to this contest. and In believing
that the purity Of the ballot-box direct.
ly and the protection Of American in.
dustry indirectly are both involved il
the pending campaign, they make nc
mistake.

PHOSPHATES!

The time OF year has come when the
careful farmer begins to look around for
phosphates. To the farmer who has
used the Cincinnati Desiccating Com.
pany's phosphate this article is not in.
dited, for he knows the merit Of the
goods, and also knows that farmer
might as well SOW bad ,Dheot as bad phos
phate and expect good result, but to
those who have not yet learned their
value, and to them we wouldsay, try our
brands once and we will not need to urge
you to try again, for the reason that
these fertilizers are superior to those Of
other manufacturers. Because, first,
they are in every sense what their name
implies-purc bone fertilizers. There are
four brands on this market this fall.
The first, pure raw bone without any
water or grease, leaving all the gluten
and gelatin and great quantity Of am.
monia and phosphoric acid. Second,
the acidulated bone is made from pure
steamed bone and animal matter, and 80
arranged to be both quick and lasting.
Third, Giliad phosphate contains the
bone, meat and blood and potash, and is
quick to act, does its work thoroughly
and 10 lasting. Fourth, the Ohio Valley
phosphate contains meat and blood and
potash, and does its work to the satis-
faction OF customers and is cheap. All
the above goods are sold and guaranteed
to be free from that of questionable stuff
sold as phosphate, under the misleading
names Of dissolved bone, soluble bone,
&C., which is in fact simply South Caro-.
lima or Charleston rock. Our goods are
absolutely dry and will drill in any drill.
Don't be imposed upon. Come andsee us.
