Why We shonld Organize.

There is ! o Disgusting the i'm,
portance of the next general elec.
tion.
That the tariff will enter largely
into the canvass is also foregone
conclusion.
With reasonable and united ef.
fort the Democrats will have IA
majority in the next House of Rep
resenatlves, ana to this end all the
forces favoring tariff reform
should be gathered into one com
pact invincible body ready armed
arguments and oflicered by trust
ed leaders ready to do effective
battle in the peoples cause.
When the campaign is fully on
and party pride and strife run high
is poor time to make proselytes,
and hence the organization should
be begun now, that the time In
tervening before the active work
of the campaign begins may be
utilized in the PRONUNCIATION OF
Tariff Reform truths.
Let the work of organization be
once.

most to win victory and success for

brilliant triumph has been achieved
by the party, and the hard work
is over, millionaires with only a
nominal residence in Ohio, are
rushing into the state to demand
and purchase the senatorial prize.
This selfish and corrupt and cor
rupt policy will not prevail. The
eyes of the nation are upon the
Ohio Democracy. Every Demo-

Not q Question of Wealth.

We are surprised at the position
assumed by some of our contem
poraries on the Senatorial question
namely that the Ohio Democracy
must not select II wealthy man for
the position.
AS we understand the precepts
OF the party, (and we have studied
and practiced them for many
yearS,) neither wealth nor poverty
has anything to do with the matter
The Democratic party is not al
lied with socialism, anarchism nol
any other combine in which the
wealth of the citizen is even re-
motely considered. 1t is no dis
! qualification for a democrat to be
possessed of wealth so long as he
breaches the doctrines and practi-
ces the precepts of Democracy.
We insist that honesty, ability
and Democracy as enunciated in
our National and State platfornS
is the only qualification requisite
in candidate.
a man, who, possessed of wealth,
has never yielded to the tempta-
tion to use that wealth to corrupt
elections or purchase II personal
following, or for the oppression of
his fellow man is not only an hon
est, conscientious man but II true
Democrat and entitled to support.
