Our little city seems TO be in 1t and
has built many fine residences and has
made many other substantial improve

manufacturers and business men wear
n smile that only those wear who are
prosperous, happy and content.
Major Mckinley spoke to vast
audience of from about 1000 TO 5000
of Wood county's intelligent people,
Oct. q, and made many converts.
Many were heard TO remark that tho
Major made the Tariff so plain that
anyone could understand it, and his
majority in November is conceded by
those best posted to be from 10000 to
10000.

discussing the political issues OF the
day with much credit to himself and
party. Followed by Hon. L. w. Poe,
who took up the finances of the State,
answering all questions satisfactorily,
which were asked by Gov. Campbell in
his speech at Bowling Green in the
afternoon. The Auditor of State
claimed that Gov. Campbell has yet

but had the figures to prove anything
that he might say.
And then came the Hon. Ira j.
Chase, Lieut.. Gov of the Hoosier State
an eloquent and polished orator who
took up and handled without gloves
the Tariff question from the organiza'
tion of our Government up to the
present time, giving many forcible
reasons why the Republican State,
Senatorial and County Representatives
should be elected.
After the meeting it was heard on
all sides, that the Democratic papers
have greatly belied our hustling and
active candidate for Representative
Benz. f. James. That he is equal tC
any and superior to many of their
noted and prominent Democratic
Statesman, and that Wood county will
make no mistake by sending Benny to
the Legislature; he is Il hustler al
home in his business, ranking second
to none in activity in this county, and
the records of the court will substan
tiate this statement; he is honorable in
all dealings and one of the most public
spirited young attorneys in North
western Ohio, and if Wood county asks
any legislation you can depend on
James ''get there qualities" We
say that every Republican should vote
for James and also the entire Republic
can ticket.
Fred Yeager, the Republican candi
date for Treasurer, was born and raised
in Wood county, and his honor ant
