The history of the Toledo Democrat
is not the most voluminous. 1t is that
of many other papers which, with flash
of trumpets and loud bluster, sweep
down upon fields already full and by
shear gall strive to crowd others to one
side-others who have labored for
years in behalf of the town and with
self consciousness of having kept the
interests of the town constantly in
view, certainly have gained residence
and patronage-the result of years of
toll. The field in Toledo was distinct
ly full at the time of the Democrats
birth, therefore, that it might live,
some one of the older papers must 60 to
the wall-certainly q most unnatural
and untenable hypothesis. A space of
time equivalent to about 81 days Of our
every day time, but certainly enough
newspaper thunder for year of con-
serVative running, in the Democrat,
passed over this infants shoulders; but
E was doomed never to east off It's
swaddling clothes and at the end of
this time wrote an epitaph. 1t is dead
it has met the same inevitable fate
that must seek a tete-a-tete with those
who persist 10 endeavoring to take 4
from 2and not have minus quantity
remaining.

HICOX MILLS.

MONROE, TP., Aug. 25th.-[Special.]
Either In the history of Henry county
or the newspapers this place does not
receive any too much attention. But we
have lively little village notwithstand-
ing, and considerable business is done.
The place receives its name from Mes
srs HicoX, who own and operate the
stave mill here, and which enterprise
goes chiefly towards making the town
what it is. Hicox is situated 81 miles
west of Holgate, which latter place is
its post office. 1t has one grocery and
a blacksmith shop. Outside of this we
are not very flush in business houses.
But our people all labor and pay as we
go. nearly everyone receiving good
wages.
Having been requested by a repre-
sentative Of the NORTHWEST to jot
down few items of general and cur
rent news, take pleasure in writing
that:
Mrs. Susan Mooney died early
Saturday morning at the residence of
her daughter, Mrs. w. Morris, of
heart diseasr.
Mrs. Andrew Harman and Mrs.
Leonard Kanaval drove to Malinta
Saturday and took dinner with the
family of J. G. Markley, dealer in
dry goods and groceries of that place.

Republican Testimony Against Nc
Kinley.

Republican Testimony Against Nc
Kinley.
In 1884 Mckinley was candidate
for Congress in the Stark Carroll dis
trict, which was Republican by over
1000, but he was defeated by Major
Wallace, a Democrat, through a revolt
against McIlinly and his record by Re-
publicans who could not endorse either.
From scathing address issued by these
boiling Republicans the following is
taken:
In the preceding pages We have, we
think, clearly shown that during his
seven years in Congress. of whose "val-
liable servicesn his paid scribblers so
boastingly talk, he has done absolutely
nothing for the temperance reform, for
the cause Of protection, for the soldier,
or for the workingman. There were
two important interests. however,
which he has zsal0usly looked after
and carefully guarded. and they are: lat,
the ambitious schemes of William Me-
Kinley; and, 81, the large monopolies,
which are grinding, expressing and de-
grading labor, while they grow rich
aud powerful through the protection
granted them by the patent laws OF the
United States, to wiring unreasonable
and eXtravagant profits from the sale
oi their patented machinery, from The
small capital mechanics, machinists
and farmers.
Look around you and answer, who
are the men most anxious to confer on
Mckinley life seat i'm Congress? Cor
nelius Aultman, whose royalty on pat
ented farm machinery alone annually
wrings from the pockets of the farming
community not less than $780, 900; the
powerful railroad companies, over
whose lines of road Mckinley rides ev-
erywhere on free passes; the boss pot
ters of East Liverpool who by edict
have denied the right of labor to or
ganize for its own projections; these are
the men who have opened their Golfers
and are now canvassing the district for
the purchase of votes for William Nc
Kinley for Congress. Is it not time
for honest, thinking Republicans to
call halt and wrest the power of do
ing harm from the hands of the dema-
gogue who has prostituted his office to
such base purposes?
This arraignment does not come from
Democrats, b1t from Republicans, and
this same Mckinley of 1884 is the Nc
Kinley who is now seeking to be gov
ernor of Ohio. Honest Republicans,
bolt him now as YOU did then.

JAS. ROBERTS was arrested at New
Washington, o., and brought to Otta-
wa charged with the Columbus Grove
murder and bank robbery. He is about
20 years of age and those who have
seen him describe him as tough look
ing fellow. Cashier Maple and hard
ware dealer, John Crawford, from
whom the desperate secured the re-
volvers, positively identify the man as
the criminal. He is a Toledo boy and
was formerly an edge-tool worker in
the Milburn Wagon Works. His pa
rents live in Toledo and are confident
of proving an alibi as, they claim, he
was in Toledo at the time of the crime
as DR.. Cowdrick and others will testify.
He will not be taken to Columbus
Grove as fully 500 determined men are
at each train prepared to do the lynch
ing act, notwithstanding there is some
doubt of Roberts being the right man.

In Case the Buckeye State Goes the
Right Way.
He Has no Concern or Anxiety About
Himself.

New YORK, Aug. pa strange init
macy has sprung up between eX-Presi-
dent Cleveland and e. G.. Benedict, a
broker, who has made things come his
way. He is reported to have made q
million out of his connection with the
Chicago Gas Trust. People who know
both thinks it is strange there should be
such an intimacy, but it is probably due
to common interest in yachting. Mr..
Benedlc owns pretty fair steam yacht,
which is capable of making good speed
and has comfortable quarters for party
of dozen or so, and can provide well
for them on cruise of considerable
length. Last summer he had Mr..
Cleveland with him on his yacht, and
this summer he has been in the ex-
Presidents company and has seen him
in that most trying of all experiences
when man undertakes to go fishing
in choppy sea with stiff cross-cutt-
ing breeze.
On the day after Governor Campbell
was renominated for Governor of Ohio
Mr.. Benedict sailed up Buzzard's Bay
on his yact, taking with him the New
York papers which Mr.. Cleveland had
not received. The eX-President, after
congratulating him on his quick trip to
the city, asked him what the news was,
and Benedict replied that the principal
news was that Campell had been re-
nominated for Governor. Thereupon
Mr.. Cleveland said: "Well. l am
mighty glad of it, and hope Jimmy
will be elected. He's fighter and he's
one of my sort of men. Yes Jimmy isa
good fellow, good Democrat, and he
happens to be elected this fall he's
bound to become pretty conspicuous
man,
Cleveland then read the account of
the doings of the convention which
nominated Campbell very carefully, and
seemed specially interested in the silver
plank in the platform. Later on in the
day, while chatting with friends about
him, Mr.. Cleveland intimated his belief
that if Campbell carried Ohio he would
prove very strong candsdate before
the convention which is to nominate
the Democratic candidate for the Presi-
dency. Those who heard Mr.. Cleveland
talk thus were rather strangely i'm
pressed, and it seemed to them as
thought he had in mind not only the
possibility, but the desirabillity of the
nomination of Campbell.
AS for himself he said that he had
once had the chief honor that could fall
to any American, and that so far as his
personal feeling was concerned he could
truthfully say that lie had no anxiety
or concern about the political future.
He said, laughingly, that it sometimes
seemed to him as though he would be
perfectly content if he could earn money
enough during the winter months to
spend the summer at ease in fishing and
sailing in the vicinity of fBuzzard's Bay,
and he emphatically declared that dur
ing his whole life he has never had the
enjoyment which he has found down
there by the salt water.
OF course, these conversations were
mere informal chats, the chit chat of
the veranda or of a yachts debk when
there is no formality and when words
are not weighed. Nevertheless, those
who have heard Mr.. Cleveland talk are
inclined to think that he spoke what
was in his mind when he said these
things.

Is that impurity Of the blood which produces
unsightly Jumps or swellings in the neck;
which causes running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which develops ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin Of pimples, can

alive Just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores Of
the skin. Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they fasten and increase with
frightful rapidity. Then German
