Death Long Drawn Ont

IT appears from report on capital
punishment which has just been laid
before the Parliament OF Austria and
Hungary that executions in that coun-
try are carried out in an inconceivabiy
barbarous manner The convict is
placed on the ground, where he stands
with long rope around his neck,
which presently jerks him Off his legs,
and he remains struggling horribly ID
the air for several minutes. A con-
yict is never strangled in less than
seven minutes, and often the operation
takes a quarter of an hour, and the
poor wretch is usually conscious, or
nearly conscious, during the greater
part of the time. People talk about
disgraces to civilization-surely this Is
one.-Londop Truth.

Our Watchwords-Tariff Reform and
Victory.

As Cincinnati goes so goes the State,
say the politicians. This year it will go
Democratic. The Cox-Foraker wing
have forced their ticket on the party,
and such papers as the Republican
Times-Star and Evening Post, Independ-
ent, say it will be hard to defeat the
splendid Democratic ticket named. The
Times star, which is owned and edited
by the brother of the man Foraker ap-
pointed Judge, says of it:
''There is no use for the Republicans to
try to disguise the fact that the DEM
ocrats nominated Yesterday a fairly
strong ticket. The four nominations
which fix the character of the ticket are
the sheriff, the probate judge, the county
commissioner and the county solicitor.
''The Republicans will have to put up
a good ticket to beat it. To win the cleo
ton they had only to nominate clean,
straight, honorable men who would
bring out the vote of the party. That
kind of men were not selected, and the
Republicans will stay away from the
polls, and as a consequence the Demo
Gratis will have walkover."

Prospects of Victory.

The Democrats of Ohio have seldom
entered upon a campaign so full of hope
and promise as the present one. A year
ago they buclled on their armor and
went out to fight the enemy cntrenched
behind official walls in every part of
the State. The creatures of Governor
Foraker had been billetted upon tho
people in every shape and form. In
Cincinnati alone over three thousand
active and offensive Republican parti-
sans had been provided with places and
made instruments to dc the bidding of
that great machine whose boilers were
fired under the northwestern corner of
tho State House. The public institu-
tions were filled with partisans of the
worst kind, mon who were put there not
because of their fitness but because of
their capacity for serving their master
who created them. The Democracy
confronted an army of 10, 900 officehold-
ers, many of whom were created by the
Foraker boards. With such odds against
them they went in and won under tho
leadership of the gallant son of Butler
County, James e. Campbell.
This year things have changed. Tho
Foraker olficeholders have been drawn
from power and are now fugitives from
| State and local treasures. Their organ
| ization is broken and disbanded and the
man who in his heart was against their
chief, now heads the Republican State
ticket. No one for an instant believes this
exiled clement will give cordial support
to Dan Ryan. Now and hence the op-
| portunities OF the Democracy are great
| ly enhanced.
To all &nese advantages are those aris.
ing from the clean and respectable ad'
ministration of Governor Campbell. In
the earliest days of his administration
he announced that there would be nc
scandals arising from executive interior
ence in the distribution of the offices il
his gift, following the selection of heads
of departments. The Office was too dig
nified and honorable for its chief mag
istrate to disgrace with the practice o.
ward politics, and this single act alone
has lifted the Office higher in the re
spect of the people, who see in the
Democratic policy an intention tx
serve the people honestly and eco
nomically rather than prostitute
the public service by Transforming
it into political machine and making
it a reproach to the State. Governo
Campbell's selection of public officer
has been the best the State has enjoyed
in years. Nearly one year of his ad
ministration has passed and the publi
service has not been scandalized and de
bauched as it was under his predecessor
There is not q spot or flaw on the con
duct of public affairs, and even the politi
II
nate single discreditable act. Conse
quently the Democracy have never hac
a better opportunity to win than now
while the nomination of twenty-on
able and popular gentlemen in the Con
gressional District have only made tn
chances that much better.

Dan Ryan's Appropriation.

Dan Ryan IS bawling about the in
creased expenditures of the Democratic
Legislature. This is very refreshing
when the facts are considered. 1t was
the same Dan who worried tho life out
of the Finance Committee last winter,
begging them to increase the allowance
for his own Office. The Committee did
so. In 1889 there was appropriated for
the expenses of the Secretary of States
office S32, ,934 80. Last winter Mr.. Ryan
asked for $50, 24O or an increase of 60per
cent. over that on which his predecessors
conducted the office. Now it is his boast
and that of his party organs that his
administration will be a high water
mark for all future generations. Mr..
Ryan and organs should remember that
an increased expenditure of so per cent
would improve almost any thing. Mr.
Ryan has been very pretty and ornamen'
tai, but it cost the taxpayer just so pei
cent above that of his predecessors.

He Was Too Tough for the Bullets.

The blow of bullet will ordinarily
paralyze so many nerves and maseles
of white man as to knock hinn down.
even though no vital part be lit. The
Indian gives little heed to such wounds
and to ''drop him in his. tracks, the
bullet must reach the nFaip, the heart.
or the spine. II have seen an Indian
go off with two, bullets through his
body" writes Col. Dodge, within an
inch oE two of the spine, the only eff
feet of which was to cause him to
change his gait from run to digni-
fed walk
A cavalry force of some twenty-five
men surprised small party of Indians
in thick chaparral, through which,
however, there were numerous glades
and openings. The Indians scattered
at once, and the soldiers separated in
pursuit.
After some time, when the cessation
of firing Indicated that the affair was
over, the commander had the recall
sounded. Soon one and then another
came in, until the whole command was
assembled. when, to the qualification
of the officer, almost every man
claimed to have killed an Indian.
They went to collect the bodies. On
reaching the first one it was found that
nearly every soldier claimed to, have
killed him.
A sergeant dismounted and ap-
preached the body. The p9ostrate In
dian rose up and dealt a. vicious blow
with his knife, which the sergeant bare
ly escaped. When the Indian was final
ly killed it was found that he had not
less than twenty wounds.
One bullet, probably the first one,
bad broken his hip and thrown him from
his horse. After that he had shot at
every soldier that passed near him, at
tracing attention and being 'fkilled''
again and again, only to rise up and
fight the next soldier that came along;
Instead of twenty Indians the soldies
found one.

The Peoples Party.

The Democratic position on the tariff
is as plain as the Constitution of the
United States-take no more money
from the pockets of the people than is
necessary to properly conduct the af-
fairs of the Government. The Republic
an position is equally as plain and ex-
plicit-talle all the money from the peo-
pie that can be got and as much more as
grand larceny will permit. The sur
plus can be used in extravagant pen
sions that will keep the soldiers in line
for 1892. 1t will go long distance in
constructing public buildings and giving
the lobbyists of these jobs chances to
rob and pilfer the Treasury in order to
turn over portion of their ill-gotten
gains into the corrupt treasury of Mat
Quay and ''Block-of-Five" Dudley.
1t can be used in the shameless river
and harbor steals that may go to help
out Republican Congressman in close
district. The surplus of the robbery
will go back to the Republican party in
Congressional vote to force the bayo-
net election bill on the South, to oust q
Democratic Congressman or to carry
through tariff measures in the interest
of the rich as against the poor. The Re-
publican party always has made the peo-
pie pay its campaign expenses. Its COR
rupt funds during campaigns are wrung
from the sweatof human labor. They are
contributed by the tariff barons, the
millionaire monopolist, the trusts and
combines fostered by Republican legis-
lation and tossed back again by them
upon the toilers in their employ.
The supreme duty of every Democrat
this fall is his appearance at the ballot
box in November, there to cast his suf-
frage for the party of the people, the
party that advocates lower taxation for
farmers, farming land, the necessities of
| life as we'll. The Democratic party does
not believe there is now nor has been
for many years just distribution of the
profits Of labor, and it will insist on a
| just distribution now as it has always
done in the past.
Lower taxation, cheaper necessities of
life, higher prices for the products of
the farm are the demands upon legisla-
ton made by the Democratic party OF
| State and Nation

TIE farmers of the country are in a
much worse situatioD-~Shan the Wall
street speculators-j5d Government does
nothing to <,help them out. Buying
bonds wor:h $50, 900 will not raise
the mortgage on one Ohio farm. The
operation will not lower the price of one
article the farmer is obliged to buy or
increase the price of ono product he has
to dispose of. While the Secretary Of
the Treasury is buying bonds to accom-
modate Wall street spectators Congress
is passing a tariff bill that will make
the condition of every farmer in the
country worse than it now is. The pro-
posed law will take many millions
of dollars from farmers which will pass
into the National Treasury, where the
Secretary can use it for buying bonds
for the purpose OF helping out the stock

SENATOR INGALLS,, of Kansas, is one Of
the Republican images. He is one of
the great leaders of the Republican par
ty from any standpoint, yet it has just
been shown that he has been charging
the farmers Of his State is per cent. in
terest on the money they have borrowed
from him. Mr.. Ingalls, is also great
tariff man. He wants more protection
because it benefits the people, don't you
know, and he is nothing If not friend
to tho people. Down in Now Mexico he
could get 30 per cent for his money, but
out of love for the people of Kansas he
remained with them, suffering q cool
loss of por cent.

THE Republican organs in this State
will go to the limit in their partisan
misrepresentation of Governor Camp
bell and his administration. A certain
Republican editor not thousand miles
from Columbus roundly abuses the Gov
ernor for 'pardoning' Lew Houck.
Now with the exception of the fact that
Houcl1 was pardoned by the Board of
Managers of the pen and not pardoned
by the Board of Pardons, and the further
fact that Governor Campbell three
months ago refused to pardon him, this
editor is all right. With these excep-
tions he is not more malignant and ig-
norant than some other able editors
who have got badly mixed up on the
pardon and parole business.

GATHERING TOLL.
BY WILL S. CREIGHTON.

From the populous island Manhattan,
Far away to the Golden Gate,
The millions are toiling to fatten,
The rich by the tariff made great.
Gathering, gathering gold,
Wrung by the tariff from you;
Gathering toll from the poor and old,
All for the lordIy few.
Lord Carnegie revols in splerdor,
And rides in his tally-ho,
While his striking men surrender
A cut on their wages low.
Gathering, gathering gold,
Wrung by the tariff from you;
Gathering toll, like Tarifa old,
All for the lordly few.
o! farmers, arise! awaken!
Strike for your own at last!
The ramparts of tariff are shaken
At the sound of your bugle blast.
Vote for the honest and bold,
Vote for the fearless and true;
For champions bold, unbought by gold;
Gold of the lordly few.
