cratic sidsl am tired Of this business OF
a lot OF people standing back, thanking
God that they are not wicked, like others,
when their own record is as rotten as
cancer's sore. Applause on Democratic
side What i5 your record2 You stole one
Presidency, and bought another; aud now
you talk about suppresslDg votes. There
was conflict. Joined In 1888, and this set
tied somethihg. Let us $50 how was
waged. 1t Is u fact, known by all men. that
the fat was fried out of manufacturers all
over the country for campaign purposes.
Go to the post-otflce department and ask
your Postmaster-general how much money
he contributed.
Mr.. Milllken--The candidate on our side
did not put up lO,000.
Mr.. mcMiltin-It is a known fact that
during the last campaign money was used
without stint. Votes were bought sin
blocks OF Ave." Some of the people who
put up the boodla to buy the "blocks" were
rewarded with fat offices, and nov it is
proposed to pay the others In an Indirect
way.
In conclusion he said that in one OF his
eplstles the Apostle Paul had said: 20,
who shall deliver mo from the body OF this
death I" Commentators told us that this
saying WAS founded ON o custom existing
in m orlontal country. when a certain
crime was committed they did not put the
man In the peniten.iaty as we sometimes
do; they did net hang him, as We seldom
do; they did not turn him loose as we gen.
erally do; but they TOOK the body Of his
dead victim and lashed It to his back
and sent him forth with his burden of
death on his shoulders. Wherever he won't
by day OF by night, he bore the evidence Of
his guilt and his own great punishment,
until overcome, he sunk down Ia death. 6x-
claiming: "On, who shall deliver me from
the body of this death 2"
The Republicans had embarked on a sys-
TEN OF bounty which must bs as offensive
to the nostrils Of all taxpayers as was the
CARCASS OF the victim TO the criminal, and
when the ides OF November arrived there
would go up from tho Republican party
the wall OF deioat 20, who shall deliver
me from the body OF this death ?" Zap

Tho CnmrI Of rrSnnt

Commenting on the failure of the Kent
county court to handle the business
pressing upon it, the Smyrna Jim.S says
"rhis, at this term, grew out OF Jadge
Paynter's utter disability to take his
place on the bench and Temporary in
disposition of the presiding judge. Thus,
cases are carried over from court to court
until they become burdensome to ell
concerned. But equal with this (for it
was matter Of daily complaint) was the
dissatisfaction With the System of laws
that makes the stealing OF shirt or
pair of boots matter to nesd the attend
anoe OF several hundred people in
oonnty to settle it at an expense of POSI-
biy several hundred dollars, when 1t
oould be done es well and with more
prcpgiety by Justice Of the peace. II
the people expressed properly their in
diviius' feelings, they think there is
more than one organic change needed In
the mschiuery of our court and our
laws"

STANDARD OIL SUIT.


COLUMBUS o., May s.--Attorney-genera
Watson has brought suit In quo warrant In
the supreme court to take from the Stand
ard OIL Company its charter for violation
OF the laws In various ways.
The petition refers TO the general state
laws against monopolies, and cites the fact
that tho Standard OIL Company has for
ieited It's right by going into the Standard
OIL Trust OF New York, and receiving trust
certificates In lieu of its former shares OF
stock.
The laws OF Ohio provide explicitly that
q majority OF the II embers OF the board of
directors OF all companies Incorporated
under the laws Of Ohio shall be residents
Ct the state.
The petition sets forth that the Standard
OIL Company has surrendered its riehts for
control and management Of It's business to
the n!ne trustees of the Standard OIL rust
and that none of these trustees live IN Onto.
1t sets forth that President Rockafsiler
gets S90, COO per year and that the nine truss
tees get S25, 900 each. The petition sets forth
other violations of Ohio laws, but the prin-
cipal point is the fact that Its board OF
directors are non-residents.
