Cleveland Shelyed..

The action of the Democratic State
Convention in declaring for free coinage
of silver has created great agitation
among Eastern Democrats especially in
its direct bearing upon the candidacy OF
Grover Cleveland for President. The
question OF money hes recently made it.
self equal with the Tariff in National i'm.
portance and Clevelands' recent decided
stand against free coinage absolutely
disqualifies him for representing the
sentiments OF the western Democrats on
that question. As long as the craze for
free silver was confined to the west, there
was still some chance for Cleveland being
the representative of his party in 1892,
but now that the contagion has spread
as far east as Ohio it looks like the sill.
yer men would be able to control the
next presidential convention and insert
a silver plank IN the national platform
in which case Cleveland could clearly
never be nominated, A few more states
declaring for free silver will put Grover
entirely out of the question as a candi-
date and relegate him to the obscurity
to which he belongs.

The Ohio State University.

An advertisement in another column
calls attention to this excellent insti-
tuition. The State has adopted policy
of just liberality toward it, and it is ad.
vancing rapidly to place among uni.
versities of the first rank. The range OF
instruction includes courses in arts,
philosophy, modern languages, science,
and agriculture; in civil, mechanical,
electrical and mining engineering; and
in veterinary medicine and pharmacy.
Two new buildings are to be erected the
coming year. Three new departments
have just been created, and two more
professors in agriculture and botany are
soon to be added, making the total
number of teachers forty-fve. 1t seems
certain that Ohio is at last to have uni
versity of ample recources and facilities
Before deciding to send your son Of
daughter elsewhere it will be well to
send for the large and instructive cata'
logue issued free by this popular school
located at Columbus, Ohio.

They Will Vote for Campbell.

Many Highland county Democrats
will have difficult time trumping up
reasons why they should vote the Demo.
cratic ticket this fall. In voting for
Campbell they will be supporting man
whom they have denounced in bitterest
terms as political traitor and a feeble
and incompetent official whose admin.
istration is disgrace to the state. In
voting for him they endorse a platform
which contains one of the worst financial
heresies of the times. The free coinage
of silver has been denounced by them
as one OF the greatest fallacies that
threaten our national finances but vote
for the Democratic State ticket will
amount to complete abandonment oi
all their financial principles. In fact
the Democrat who makes any 'pretence
to reasonableness and consistency will
find this fall that he is not q Democrat
after all. He will find himself utterly
unable to defend the candidate or the
platform and if he votes the ticket will
shut his eyes and do it with . terrible
grimace. - r

A Kansas Opinien.

Representative Perkins, of Kansas,
does not give very cheerful statement
of the condition Of things in his State.
He says: "When we were afflicted with
the grasshopper, the drouth and other
plaques we had the sympathy of the
people at large but since we have en-
dorsed the Farmers Alliance by electing
its men to Congress the public has lost
confidence in us as State; money is
scarce and it is almost impossible to
borrow it. The money that has been
in the market has been withdrawn. The
leaders of the Alliance have declare for
what is practically fat money and the
reputation OF debts. Mrs, Lease, one
OF their champions, is going about or.
ganizing societies to prevent the fore.
closure OF mortgages and the collection
OF debts, while Senator PETER has pub
licly said that the people Of Kansas are
too much involved to pay their debts
My successor is coming to Congress to
secure legislation on a platform that de.
clares the resident of cities are support
ed by the farmers, and that it would be
cheaper to keep them in the poorhouses
than as tradesmen in the cities. In all
the State, save few cities in the mineral
belt, there is not nail being driven or
a shingle being put on. All improve.
ment has stopped and tae intelligent
farmer is beginning to realize that in.
stead of helping them the Alliance has
added to their evils and precipitated ad.
ditional misfortunes upon them"

Campbell viii Bear Watching.

Republicans should remember that
James E. Campbell is one of the most
successful and daring political tricksters
in the country, and a contest with him
even on square issues and with apparent
odds against him will not be walk. over.
The skilltul use he made Of the ballot
box mistake and the inhuman manner
in which he took advantage of the in
sanity Of George Topp show him to be
master of all cbicanery and an adept
in its use. The greatest danger to Re-
publicans lies in placing too much re-
lance upon the alleged discord in the
Democratic ranks. Great as this is
known to be it must not be, depended
on. With his political machine well in
control Campbell will require hard work
to defeat bi,u.

Larry Neal Politically Ruined.

Larry Neal has evidently killed the
goose that might some day have laid him
golden egg. His availability as a can.
didate OF the Democratic party would
undoubtedly at some time have brought
him the nomination for Governor or the
support OF his party for Senator without
the appearance Of great effort on his own
part. He has heretofore been remark.
ably favored by the Democrats when in
need of a candidate and no doubt would
have been so again had he had the con.
tinence to bide his time. But when the
boodlers and gangsters Of Hamilton
county in looking about for some one to
use as foil against Governor Campbell
took up the support OF Neal, he yielded
to their Establishments and went into
the fight with dash and a boldness that
surprised both friends and foes. 1t was
bold political move and had itsucceed-
ed would have been called good politics.
Failing as it did, it must take rank as
one of the greatest political blunders in
the history OF the state. The support OF
Hamilton county was soon found to be
a mere pretext, delegates were found to
be hard to pick up over the state, the
Pleading and influential Democratic
in different sections OF the state at whose
solicitation l became a candidate" soon
proved to be neither influential nor to
be found in any "section of the state"
that was very far removed from Hamilton
county or from Meals own immediate
neighborhood. His personal friends
were equally deceived with himself and
come in equally with him for the laugh.
Had Neal refused the use of his name
by the Cincinnati gang, they might have
carried on their opposition to Campbell
under another name, and Neal might
have saved his chance and ran for Gov.
ernor or Senator another day when the
handwriting was not so plain on the
wall.

An Old Enellsh Word.

There are certain survivals IN the
English language. says the Detroit
Free Press. that are entitled to some
notice, as, for example, the use Of the
word ''sailorman" TO describe the per
son whom ordinary persons designate
- sailor. This word is as old as the
British naval and mercantile marine
and clings along the margins Of. the
wharves with tenacity that defles ali
efforts to uproot It. One never sees Il

RAISING SNAKES.
A Genuine Reptile Farm on a Very
Scala

A Genuine Reptile Farm on a Very Large
Scale.
A Mr.. Childs is probably the only
bona flde snake charmer in America;
says writer in the New York Sun. He
has been in town seeing about placing
his fall snake crop. 1t seems very odd
to hear him talk OF my crop Of snakes" I"
but he means every word of 1t, for he
has genuine snake farm in the south
west.
The farm proper consists of a pen
some twenty-five feet IN diameter. In
the center Of this pen Is a raised plat
form, accessible in safety from the OUT
side, on which visitors can promenade
out of reach of the deadly fangs. In the
woods and wild swamps surrounding
the place legions Of moccasins, cotton
mouths, rattlesnakes and copperheads
are found. These wilds are the seed
bins from which at times Mr.. Childs
draws to replenish his farm. At one
side Of the inclosure is rabbit warren
in which live some. fifty or sixty bum
MES. Their number, however, is con-
stantly changing. They never die Of
old age. They are the food of the
snakes.
Between five hundred and six hundred
reptiles are In the farm at o time. Only
the larger ones are used as they yield a
greater amount of oil, skin and rattles
than the small ones. Mr.. Childs expects
to harvest eight hundred ounces of oil q
season and has made his price two dol
lars per ounce. Aside from the oil he
win have a handsome crop Of rattles
and. tanned skins.
When an ounce or SO of fresh oil Is de-
sired Mr.. Childs enters the pen and
either whistles with his lips or uses a
Aute. The snakes at once glide out OF
their holes and gather round him, max.
ing peculiar purring sound with
their rattles to denote their pleasure.
Selecting the largest and fattest, Childs
picks It up and cuts It's head OF with
his pocketknife.

THE LINCOLN CLUB.

The Lincoln Club, which did such
effective work in former campaigns, has
been recognized and the following
officers have been elected: President,
II. D. Davis; Vice Presidents, E. B.
Ayres, A. B. Dunlap Secretary, T. H.
Langley; Treasurer, H. J. Erwin; Elk.
,ecutive Committee, E. Carson, s. N.
Patton, John R. Horst, Geo. L. Garrett,
w. H. Walker. The club is member
-of the Ohio State League of Republican
Clubs, which, under the leadership Of
President Squires, is proving itself a
power in Ohio State politics and has the
hearty endorsement of Senator Sherman,
Secretary Foster and other Republican
leaders. The necessity of compact and
complete organization is recognized by
all our leaders as imperative, especially
in the coming campaign, where an ef.
fort will be made to spring new issues
and draw new party lines and thus give
the Democrats the benefit of divisions
in our own ranks. The utterances of
Republican platforms and resolutions
show that the party still adheres to
sound old.time principles on Tariff,
Money and Rights, and in these times
OF political quackery and theorizing on
economic questions it becomes more
than ever the duty of Republicans to do
all they can by systematic and organized
effort to distribute sound literature, ad-
vocate and defend true Republican prin-
ciples and rally the full strength of the
party at the polls. These are the OBJ.
iects that the Lincoln Club and the
kindred organizations throughout the
State have in view. It is proposed to
extend the organization into every vot-
ing precinct in the State and lit is the
vigorous spirit in which the work has
been begun that has caused alarm among
Democratic leaders, like Cal Brice, wbo
recognize in Republican indifference the
surest hope of Democratic success. The
disorganized and chaotic condition of
the Democracy, resulting from the
scramble over the gubernatorial nomi-
nation, must not be counted on, as the
Democratic stomach has shown a re-
markable capacity for digesting crow,
xulping down distasteful candidates and
Inconsistent principles for the mere hope
of political success.
Never in the history of the country
has State campaign been ofsuch nation
al Importance. Mckinley and Protec.
.s.ion are national issues and his defeat
ior the Governorship would be fatally
significant outlook for the Presidential
eight of 1892. Persistent and jealous
work, both Individually and by organi-
nations, is the duty of all true Republi-
cans and the Republican League Clubs
furnish the means through which it
may best be accomplished. Let every
member of the party ally himself with
,the organization and give it his best
effort. The Lincoln Club represents
che party and the principles of Lincoln,
which are stiA as worthy of our support
-as they were when our fathers defended
,shem under the leadership of Lincoln
Aimseif.
