What 11smbsrs Of the Democratic Rsrty
Have Recently said Of Him.

Bslting the Ticket.
Judge Alfred Yaple, Of Cincinnati, has
always been . Democrat, . lifelong
Democrat and leader, 80 he cannot con-
sistently support James e. Campbell.
On July Is he published the following
card to that effect in the Cincinnati
Enquirer.
Under no circumstances" says he,

vention. am not the chattel property
Of those who packed it. J shall not be
hitched to the coupling-pole at the rear
end Of the Campbell dandy-walCn and
trot along under the tar bucket.
"They have deliberately organized an
other defeat" continues the judge, "as I
have known to be done time and again
when the party in this state had every
chance of success. The truth is have
realized for some years that enough Of
those who have managed our conven-
tions, put up its candidates and fixed its
unhappy destinies are purchasable, and
when that is the case no good can be ac-
complished for the people by the party.
"The action I suggest for the party in
this county and city endorsing the
PETER candidate) will give Mckinley
10000 plurality in Hamilton county over
Campbell, who defeated the party in the
state and this county last fall, losing US
q congressman in the First district, and
leading to Legislative spportionuent
by Republican officials that will give
their party the majority in the senate
for ten years to come. Campbell began
the Hamilton county fight without legal
right or excuse. After appointing the
board Of public improvements for Gin
cinnati under law suggested and ap-
proved by him (not giving him the
power Of removal,) and passed at his in
stance, all his powers and duties con-
cerning the matter ceased.
'He as governor became functua
ofdcio. Yet, when it was found that
Louis Reemelin, president of that board,
man Of known sterling integrity, was
opposed to monopolies and could not be
used as the tool of the gas and Consoli-
datedr Street Railway companies, the
latter employed certain politicians Of the
city Of Hamilton, of the Schwab- Camp
bell faction, to give us ''home rule"

Campbell's fiasco in ignoring the probate
court having sole jurisdiction Of the
subject under Campbell's own law; until
his act of monumental folly in calling
an extraordinary session Of tho legisla
ture were accomplished results. The
legislature at this extraordinary session
by the combination of the Republicans
with some Democrats, passed an uncon
stitutional statute turning out the Lawful
board by force, and leading to the dis
missal from employment of some ], ,50(
Democrats, who were thereby illegally
deprived of earning bread for their wive
and children. Campbell's nomination
has assured the success of Mckinley
and the next legislature will be largel,
Republican, giving that party Unitet

wise enough to join hands with the Peo
ple's party, as suggest"

The Republican party stands now, as
ever, for creative policies. The tariff
act is bringing new industries into ex-
istence; the reciprocity treaties are en-
larging the foreign markets for Ameri-

noting the restoration of the COM
mercial marine; and every industrial iu-
terest in the land is feeling the invigor-
ating impulses of creative legislation.

Campbell says that in congress he was

Governor Campbell is willing to

and everything that will give him

causing it to become insane with fright. It
raced over the knobs and circled about ON
