THE OHIO BATTLE.

What gives peculiar interest to the present
Ohio campaign Is not SO much that it Is a
fight for the governorship of that State as it
Is that the two men who are the standard
bearers of their respective parties each strik-
ingly represent the teachings and principle
of their parties. Up to 1872 they had
records unusually alike. Both started out
as the architects Of their own fortunes,
and when the war broke out both entered in
the service as privates Mckinley in the army
and Campbell i'll the navy Both served gal
lantly, and Campbell was so badly wounded
that he was granted pension; although, with
characteristics integrity, after he had fully
recovered his health. he surrendered all claim
thereto and had his name stricken
from the pension rolls. Both were
Republicans until 1872, when Campbell, dis
gusted with the debauchery and corruption
which had become synonymous with the term
Republicanism, withdrew from the party.
As q Democrat Governor Campbell has
shown himself true TO the sense of honesty
and right which first induced him to sever his
original political affiliations. aud in his adj
ministrstion he has given unmstakable evil
dence of the fact that he places duty far
above policy On the other hand. Mckinley
has remained with the Republican party, en-
dorsed all its corruption and rascality, and is
himself a leading spirit In the policy of carry
ing elections by purchase and Of legislating
for the few at the expense of the many.
Campbell. therefore. personally represents
in 6oht In koI L.
principle and the people. while Mckinley,
equally conspicuously represents in his person
the party of corruption and monopoly. The
result of the campaign will show conclusively
whether honesty and justice. or Doodle and
extortion are the stronger in the Buckeye

shipment 10 Europe by the Saale to-day had a
rather disquietlng effect on the stock market.
The bankers who are sending out the 1900, 900
say they received q peremptory order TO ship
the gold. They intimated that IL Is European
money and goes because it is worth more at

drift of the money market abroad is furnished
by the fact that long bills were smartly re-
duced to-day.

OVERRIDING THINGS.

MANY man has lost his suit by giving his
sweetheart too much of his company. Rare
ness imparts a flavor. And seldom but
sumptuous" is a good idea. Distance lands
enchantment. And too much familiarity Is
in danger of making the most excellent merit
undervalued All compilations of maxims
contain this percept, and every
mans observation confirms it. And
still the world goes on OVERRIDING things.
Quarrels are made worse by persistent eff
forts to settle them. Very good fellows les
pecially widowers) become horrid bores just
because Of imposing too much of their CON-
pany. and the Queen of Fashion loses her
loveliest charms by her eagerness to charm
too much and captivate too extensively. Ef-
fort is fatal TO grace and natural loveliness.
1t is a bad painter that uses glazing colors.
And whatever is done or said plainly for effect
is accepted as spectacular or dramatic and
fails Of it's purpose. The maxim that it is
high art TO conceal art is of piece with
Franklin's that honesty is the best policy.
The poet and painter and orator are all
born and not made" Ruskin says truly
that no man was ever made an artist by the
rules Of art Such are forever known as
artificial, " branded as such in the heart of
every honest man, and are classified as such
in the world.
TOO much of a muchness" ia bad every
where Too strong colors in painting; too
high sounding words in poetry; too strong
expression in oratory are all bad,
and offend instead of moving. And even
in social life too much attention to
the minute requirements of etiquette and too
much anxiety to impress our greatness. our
elegance, or least of all, our wealth or our en-
yironment exhales strong odor and rouses a
violent and irresistible suggestion and suspi-
cion of snobbishness.
IF. says the poet, men would only be
content TO he what they are" Every honest
faithful man is respectable; and there is
nothing more painful than to see a real
good amable man or woman misrepre-
senting themselves. Nor is there more
wholesome precept to be found anywhere
more wise. more conservative. more sure of
honor and fair success than the divine recon-
mendation: Consider the lilies of the fl ED
how they grow" Without toll OF labor
or any apparent effort. they grow and bloom
and delight in the air and light Of heaven.
and all the glory of the highest monarch is
not comparable TO theirs. They tell us all of
a life worth living.

ASIATIC PROGRESS

One of the most impressive evidences which
is presented of the progress which the world
is making is the transformation which is TAX
ing place on the continent Of Asia in conse-
quence Of the energy which is being displayed
there by the two European powers who have
taken possession of so large portion of it.
England has long controlled the southern
division OF the Asiatic continent, and in the
last few years. largely on account OF the mill
tary necessities of the situation, she has con-
structed there very extensive system of rail-
ways, which unites every part of her domin-
ion. The face of the whole country has been
brought under cultivation, the population has
increased, the cities have grown in size and
