1t is very anibsjns to hear these
wild eyed high tariff men talk
about the McKfnleSbfli. Theyteil

In the meantime, however, ever y

wonder what we shall come to if
this thing goes on much longer.
Facts are very ugly things. You
can't smooth their wrinkled brows
with hattering rhetoric nor make
them sweet tempered with special

facts which will "meet US at Philip

The Mass Convention.

We have heard on all hands of
the stormy session of the Mass
Convention Of Monday, and it's
proceedings have by some of our
country brethren been designated
as shameful and disgusting.
&, The aCar was not between the
Democrats. There are no feelings
of, animosity between the masses
of the Democracy and the storm
was the result of bitterness be-
tween two men.
Such scenes should not be toler-
ated by the party, for the reason
that it has tendency to engender
strife and GOODNESS in the common
cause. If individuals have cause
and inclination for strife, they
should retire to some place where
they may settle their differences
III ct Grnais without disturbing the
party or asking it to take sides.
Hereafter let the delegates to
the State Convention be elected
and the Mass Convention be abol-
ished.
THE following are the resolutions
adopted by the mass convention of
the democracy on Monday last.
BcsoIved, by the Democracy of
Hooking county:
That we thoroughly and heartily
endorse the course of our Repre-
sentative, Hon. w. p. Price and
our Senator, Hon. V. G. Lowry in
the last Legislature, and hereby
endorse them for denomination,
and the delegates are hereby in
structed to cast the solid vote of
this county for each of them in the
conventions.
ResoLUed, That Judge Tall Slough
has made a most efficient, honest,
capable and spelendid Judge in
every particular, bringing skill, Dig
nifty, learning and industry with
him to that high office. The dele
gates of this county tc the Judicial
Convention which is held Tues
day at New Lexington, are hereby
instructed to vote as a unit for Hon.
Tall Slough for Judge at all times.

and gifted sons, led the democra-
cy Of Ohio to magnificent victory

AS soon the fraud became known
the agitation for the restoration of
the silver dollar began, and stimuli
taneously began the opposition by
interested parties charging that the
silver dollar was deprecated
coin and not'lwort its face value
in the markets Of the world.
In 1878 a bill restoring silver to
its ancient position passed the
House but was defeated in the
Senate and the Bland Silver Bill
was the result of a conference, and
passed over the veto of r. b. Hayes.
The bond holders, bankers, mon
ey lenders and all who were inter-
ested in increasing the purchasing
power of money and limiting its
quantity began at once to predict
financial ruin and general disaster,
as a precursor of which the gold
would flow out Of the country, and
the inferior coin, as they flippantly
called silver, only would remain.
The reports of Mr.. Leech, direct
or of the mint, show that in the
year 1870 there were in circulation
in the U. S. $106,OOO,Ooo of gold, and
remained substantially the same
till 1873, while in 1880, two years
after the Bland law had gone into
effect and when its influence on the
currency might be reasonably ex-
pected, the volume of gold had
risen to $268,00O,OO0. Not only did
the volume of gold increase but the
predicted financial disasters failed
to materialize. 't
But the agitation continued
through the Cleveland administers
tion and in July 1890 the coinage
of silver was increased from the
two million ounces per month, au-
thorized by the Bland law, to four
and one half millions per month,
and by the report of Director Leach
made in October of that year there
was S55O,OOO,OOO of gold in circula-
tion among us. But still the pre-
diction Of disaster and financial
destruction 60 on, notwithstanding

Silver Money.

of standard silver was created the
measure of all values in this coun-
try and remained in full equality
with gold until the monetary trick
of 1873.
Those who read the adverse re-
port of the majority of the coinage
committee of the last Congress,
must be struck with its lack of ex-
pressed reason for their adverse
report, the only one being that the
the persent law, authorizing the
coinage of four and one half mil
lions per month was virtually all
that is asked, or could be accom-
plished by the proposed legislation.
If this be true, then, we ask, why
all the turmoil and protest from
the creditor class? Why all this
howl of the pimps of the Shylocks
about honest dollars? No one ever
heard the silver dollar charged
with dishonesty until its money
value was deranged by the fraud of
1873,

The Consumer PnYs It.

Cleveland PlGih Dealer
Few Republicans save those of
the ultra protection stripe now pre-
tend that the tariff tax on import
ed goods is paid by the foreigner.
Mr.. Mckinley is chief among
those fanatics who still insist that
the tax does not come out of the
consumers pocket, for in one of his
recent SReasliee he said: "Protec-
tion makes tile European manufac-
turers pay into the United States
treasury the amount of the differ
.ence between the cheap wages
which they pay and the wages our
manufacturers spay.n This is a
proposition disproyed time and
again, but never more clearly than
by the experience ola Boston man,
not an impOrter,who lately brought
from India 3,00escigars for his own
use. According to the Providence
r.. I. Telegram the Boston man
paid for those cigars, the original
cost of which was 1882, the sum
of $3SS.SS. Under the Mckinley
law not less than 5000 cigars can
be imported, and on these four
fold tax is imposed. The duty is
$3.50 per pound, then an ad valor-
um duty of 25 per cent, and stamps
costing SO per thousand, and final
ly an extra 5 per cent. of the value
of the stamps. Before these cigars,
which were for private consump-
ton, could be removed from the
custom house the following amount
had to be paid. The cigars were
not regularly invOiced, but they
were appraised at $54, though, as
before mentioned, they had actual
ly cost only 1882. Here are the
HuurnS.

we mistake, he does get one thing,
he gets left. 1t costs him more for
his table and for his wardrobe,
more for medicine and more for

The Ohio Contest.

/ INV VhAO NVhbOot
N. Y. word.l
The political situation in the
Buckeye State continues to hold
the interest of the country at large.
This is due not only to the fact
that the tariff question is sharply
defined in the purposed nomination
of Mckinley, but that in the con-
test over Gov. Campbell there is
moral question which comes home
to the heart of every good citizen.
James e. Campbell has proved
himself no ordinary man in his
State administration at Colum-
bus. Defeating his predecessor
Foraker upon an issue that
grew out of Republican corrupt
ions, he entered upon his position
| pledged to the most radical re-
forms. The Democratic machine
accepted his nomination and earn
est advocacy of progress with the
belief, thinly concealed, that all
promises meant nothing beyond
gaining enough votes to win sue
cess. TO the amazement and dis
gust of the machine their triumph
ant standard-bearer was found to
be in dead earnest, and all that
they were forced to pledge, he has
lived to perform.
The task was difficult. The Leg
islature with which he had to CO.
operate had been elected, after a
heated contest, more for the pur-
pose of selecting a Senator to sue
ceed the venerable Payne than
aught else. 70 get that body in
terested in reform, after their one
duty was performed, proved no easy
task, and the first session was lost
without even move in the right
direction. Out of this Legislature,
however, Gov. Campbell appears
to have wrought wonders. The
Constitution of his State gives him
no veto power, and all he accom-
piished was done through personal
management. He secured to the
great commercial centre home rule.
He gave the State the Australian
system of voting. He promoted
the passage of the Crimes Act to a
law, and for the first time organized
the county-offices, abolishing the
miserable fee business and putting
the officials upon salaries.
OF course all this is offensive to
the machine. The boodlers are
casting about for a candidate to pit
against Gov. Campbell in the APP
preaching Convention. The pros
pect is not encouraging to them, as
it is the custom to give the incum-
bent Of the Governors chair sec
ond nomination, and if possible a
second term. And as Gov. Camp
bell has enhanced his claim by
brilliant services it is difficult to
get any prominent Democrat to
lend his name to such a course. To
be known as the Hamilton county
boodlers' candidate is not attract
i've. There is inherent improbable
ity, therefore, in the report from
Ohio that Mr.. Lawrence II. Neal,
of Chillicothe, is willing to play
such such a role. 1t is not like
him. Gov. Campbell should be re-
nominated by acclamation. The
Democracy of Ohio would thereby
win high name for itself while
doing service to the entire De-
mOcracy of the country.

 NEW YORK, September IA.
 Railroad bonds were fairly active and followed the fluctuations in shares very closely, being weak in the forenoon, but stiffening up later in the day, with the result of leaving the final changes quite irregular and generally for insig- nificant amounts. The sales of all issues reached $1, 500.
 The opening of the stock market was made in most stocks at advances extending to # per cent but the bears brought pressure to bear immedi- ately and the opening prices were the highest of the day The early weakness, however, accom- plished most of the losses suffered and was most conspicuous in Missouri Pacific, Union Pacific and Lackawanna, although the whole list of act i've stocks yielded large fractions. The low priced shares were not in any way prominent in the dealings to-day and the attention was con centrated to larger extent than of late upon the leading shares. The weak, feverish and de- clning tendency in prices lasted until well into the afternoon when the pressure to sell abated perceptibly and dullness once more marked the trading The desire to cover shorts then made itself manifest and at the same time the conces. sions in prices induced considerable buying for the long account, which increased in volume as the time wore along. The entire list moved up, but the Richmond ard West Point stock lost all of it's early rise, though the preferred retained all of it. Distilleries was the great feature of the afternoon, moving up from 50M to 54 on the announcement that the trust had at last made an arrangement with the outside distilleres where by it would have complete control of the busi- ness. In the late dealings New England also be- came a feature, making one of it's sudden and inexplicable advances. The market finally closed active and strong.

HIBBARD MAY RECOVER.

The Woodstock Shooting Case.
 PUTNAM, Sept. 14.-Ex-Representat:ye Hubbard was somewhat improved this morning, and the doctors say there is a chance of recovery.
 The affair is still the talk of the county Those who know both the Ide and the Hubbard families are inclined to laugh al the statement of the Ides that Hibbard's motive in visiting the Ide household that night was for the purpose of robbery. In fact the relations of Mrs. Ide and Hib- bard have furnished much food for vii lage gossip for months. Everyone in Woodstock knew of the scandal and Mrs Hubbard, unable to stand her husbands conduct longer, left him some months ago Ide, it is said, knew of the intimacy be tween his wife and Hubbard and was up braided number of times by neighbori for his apparent indifference in the mat ter. The lack of action by the authorities is causing much comment. Coroner Bill has taken Hibbard's ante-mortem state ment which he refuses to make public With this exception not a move has beer made. The authorities say they will ar rest Mr. Ide and his son if Hubbard should die, but will probably take no action if h. recOyers
