Keep sharp lookout for moth
millers; all woolens done with for the
season should be shaken, brushed, aired,
wrapped in new newspapers, labeled and
packed away before they begin to flut-
ter around. They are not apt to iniure
clothing that is occasionally shaken and
aired, or worn; but if you find any spots
covered with a fine, filmy web, trouble
has begun, and frequent brushing, steam
ing or airing will be necessary to stop
their ravages. Press.
Asparagus Soup: For this purpose
the refuse, tough and white part of a
bunch of celery may be used. At this
season asparagus is sold for five cents a
bunch, and sometimes less. Buy a
bunch to serve with white sauce, and
use the tough part for soup. Cut in
small pieces and put to boil in one quart
of water with the tops of two green
onions, a little salt and pepper, two
sliced potatoes. Press all through a

In recent address before G. A. r.
assemblage in jamestown, N. Y, Mrs.
w. c. Scofield, president OF The Political
Equality Club, said
Zone of the arguments used by our
unsympathizing friends, who have
sought to silence us, has been that wom-
en- ought not to be allowed to vote be-
cause they could not help to fight the
battles of their country. The expert
ence of few brave women during our
last war proved that some of us, at
least, were able to render good service
in the discharge of even this dreadful
duty. But we do not want to fight, and
we donot need to fight for we have you,
brave boys in blue to fight our battles
for us. We have no ambition to become
brigadier-generals, nor yet to be put in
command of awkward squads What
we do want is to have voice and al
influence in the conduct Of the affairs Of
the nation and of life, which shall
make possible and permanent the
reign of peace so long foretold for the
children of men. Men of the Grand
Army of the Republic on fields where
cannon roared and horrible carnage
ragged, and brave and beautiful souls
floated out in countless numbers upon
seas of blood, you have won; and to-
night we speak again our gratitude and
our thankfulness for what God hath
wrought for us by the service of your
willing hands and lives. But there are
other fields yet to conquer, in the blood
less warfare against evil and wrong
which has been going on since the be-
ginning of the world; citadels of super
stition and ignorance to be undermined;
work to be done for the down-trodden
and the needy: vast and ever-increas-
ing army of foreigners and children to
be taught the true spirit and intention
Of our God-given constitution, which
guarantees civil and religious liberty to
all, and finally the enfranchisement of
women, in order that the wage-earners
may receive equal pay with men for
equally good work; that the quality of
the work done, and not sex, may decide
the question of pay"

The honesty, purity and generosity of the
Hon. D. D. Donovan, our worthy candidate
for Congress, may be partially illustrated by
an accident. The scribe, then legislative re-
porter of the Columbus Post, was walking
along High street toward the Office just after
supper one evening when he ran across Mr..
Donovan standing on the edge of the walk.
The statesman was talking to little ragged
girl his hands resting on his hips and his head
bent forward. The scribe waited. Present
ly Mr.. Donovan reached into his pocket, aud
handed the child shining silver dollar.
Turning he saw the writer and asked:
"Was right in my vote on the--measure
this afternoon?"
"Of course you was, Denny; you are always
right"
The reply pleased him, and we talked for
half an hour on divers subjects. But during
the whole time he did not refer to his noble
act of charity. If was too common thing.

~ The persistency with which "Interliner
George" assisted by the Republican pimp
sent here by Republican officials at Columbus,
and who are still at their dirty work, in trying
to besmirch the official character of Ex-Audi-
tor Evers, deserves the censure of all good
citizens, for it is simply nothing less than
political persecution to aid George Russell
to second term as county auditor. Mr..
Evers' record as county auditor is above re-
proach, he has stolen no money, and these
Republican rascals dare not make such a
charge. Every cent of money has been &C.
counted for, and if George Russell thinks it
has not been distributed to his notion let him
distribute it! This he dare not do outright,
for he well knows he would be taking money
from the county which Mr.. Evers was trying
to save to the county, which the people would
condemn him for. But he is already con-
demned, he has been proven to the satisfac-
tion of the people of Henry county to be
rogue, even standing ready to blacken his
neighbor's character to carry a political
point for himself. Therefore, the suing of
Mr.. Eyers, who has not cent of money not
rightly his own, in the Franklin county
court, in the midst of the worst Republican
gang which ever cursed a State, is simply
persecution and is so looked upon by citizens
who are acquitted with the characters of the
two men. That Mr.. Evers will be vindicated
in time and that "Interliner George" will be
dispised of men and buried out of sight in
this falls election, is foregone conclusion.

B-We are reliably informed that Geo.
Russell, the great reform ~ Republican
county auditor, who is now asking the people
to vote for him again, actually tried to bribe
the German paper. In other words, to pur-
chase its silence with the patronage of his
office! According to the letter of the law
this is black-mailing and is criminal Of
Tense and punishable by fine and imprison-
ment. OF course the German Demokrat can
not be bribed or black-mailed, for it is not
built that way, its editor being too good a
Democrat to turn traitor to the principles he
advocates, and we opine Mr.. Russell will get
his just deserts through its columns for his
attempted black-maii, and learn that all men
are not made of the stuff he is.

.BT The Democrats of the 21st (CIeveland)
district on Saturday nominated Tom. l..
johnson for Congress. He was nominated
by acclamation, the Hon. W. w. Armstrong
having withdrawn from the contest, writing
manly letter advising the nomination of
johnson unanimously. Many of the friends
of Mr.. Armstrong would have been pleased
too see him nominated, for they looked upon
the old war horse as winning one in the
race, and as entitled to the nomination. But
his course in the contest has made these old
friends enthusiastic supporters of Mr.. John
son who will surely be elected by large ma
iority.

~ The Republicans held a convention in
Toledo last Saturday to select two candidates
for State Board of Equalization. The outside
counties combined against Lucas and shut it
out in the cold, and now Lucas intends to re-
taliate by giving the candidates the go-by in
November. The convention was but slimly
attended, mostly by boodlers. The nominees
areJ. B. Couch, of this county, and B. F.
Hyatt, of Hancock, both Of whom will fall
far short of an election. Mr.. Couch is too
good man to be caught in such bad COM
pany. Listen what the Republican organ of
Toledo, the Commercial, says:
"The convention was not largely attened,
and would have been uninteresting except
for the successful effort of delegates from
outside counties to keep Lucas county from
having voice in the matter. The whole af-
fair had been cut and dried before the con-
vention opened. Hancock and Henry coun-
ties had their slate prepared and rushed it
through without difficulty"

amountingto some dollars, being discovered

the Signal is mum concerning Sthem-mum

let George Russell cover into the treasury
the dollars he has vrongfully extracted there
from, and the difference between Democratic
officials and Republican officials would not
be so great.

w Pennsylvania is not the only State, it
appears, where the workingman has no name
and isknown by number. The census super
visor Of Rhode Island reports that "there are
settlements in the State where no one can
learn the names of the inhabitants. The en-
ployes do not know their names, but desi gnate
them by numbers only" And this is the re-
suit of protecting the American workingman
against competition with the pauper labor OF
the old world. In two of the States which
have been among the foremost in the cIamor
for protection the workingman is in lower
condition than any of the pauper laborers Of

az Governor Campbell opened the lDemo-
cratic campaign in Ohioin brilliant speech
at Canton on tho I'd. The Governor was at
his best and made an unanswerable argu-
ment. He reviewed the revision of the Nc
Kinley bill, which has just been passed, Wig
orously denouncing the measure, and spoke
at length on the legislation of this Congress,
not forgetting Reed and his tyrannical
course. A great crowd heard the Governor,
and his utterances were applauded to the
echo. 1t was a magnificent speech, the key
note of certain victory.
