The Attentive Official
EBENEZER ". POE.

For Auditor of State, Ebenezer W. Poe,
born near Findlay, o., Nov. IL, 1916. He
was reared and lived on a farm until he
was sixteen years of age. His education
was obtained in the common country
schools. He enlisted as private in Com
pany G., One Hundred and Thirty-thi
Ohio Volunteer Infantry, when not yet
seventeen and served with that command
until it was mustered out at the close of
the war. He is a member of the patriotic
order of Sons of Veterans by reason of his
fathers service of three years in the
Twenty-third Ohio Volunteer Infantry,
and as one of the active workers of that
order has been elected Colonel of the Ohio
division. By reason of his own service he
is also a member of the g. A R., and
has in past years served as commander of
two G. A R. posts in Wood county, o. On
his return from the war he attended the
high school at Findlay. After teaching
school for several years he engaged as
dry goods clerk in that town. Subse
quently he established himself in a general
merchandise store in North Baltimore,
Wood county, and afterwards became
travelling salesman for large Cleveland
firm. In 1881 he was elected Auditor of
Wood county, and in 1884 he was re-
elected. Mr.. Poe was nominated for
Auditor of State in 1887 aud was elected,
leading the head of the State ticket by
5,643 votes In this office he has distin-
guished himself by faithful and Jealous
regard for the best interests of the people.
His care and watchfulness have saved the
taxpayers thousands of dollars in the ex-
penditure of public funds for purposes for
which there was strictly no sanction in
law, though custom had approved the is
suance of warrants on the Treasury by the
State Auditor At the special session of
the Legislature last year he declined to
honor vouchers for the mileage of mem
bers. He refused also to honor the vouch-
ers for pay of members of the State Board
of Equalization during its recess of about
o month last winter. In these instances
alone the State was the gamer by many
thousands CT dollars. He has shown great
capacity and fitness for the trust be-
slowed upon him, and is worthy the entire
confidence of every voter.

Governor Campbell,s speech.
New York Press.l


Governor Campbell, of Ohio, in his
speech accepting the Democratic renom-
nation, sneered at the federal elections
bill as the lost cause of the Republican
party, evidently by way of contrast with
the Lost Cause of the Demo ratio party.
The Republican party accepts the issue.
The cause of minority rule, disunion
and human slavery is as far removed as
the south pole is from the north pole
from the cause of honest elections.
sacredly kept pledges and the recognition
of our obligations to do justice to the
colored race by making them learn the
duties of citizens by experience.
Two other points made by Governor
Campbell are typical boasts of Demo-
cratic blemishes. He brags that the
Democrats of Ohio have diminished tax
alton in Ohio by repeating the sinking
fund levy-that is, by stopping the pro
vision for payment of the State debt.
Again, he confesses that the Democratic
mainstay for attacks on the tariff is the
Juggling old percentage trick. After
quoting Major McKinley's argument
that protection was the tariff doctrine Of
Washington and Hamilton. ne says:
''Let us see how wide of the mark this
statement is. The tariff of today is at
the rate of 81 1-2 per cent; the tariff of
Washington was Z 1-2 per cent" A
tariff of Z l-2 per cent on goods costing
81 yard is tariff of 81 1-2 per cent.
when the goods decline to thirteen cents
yard. The percentage trick is directly
calculated to deceive the unwary, for
the tariff tax" is thereby made to look
more and more outrageous, while the
thing taxed is becoming cheaper all
the time. And everything except labor
is much cheaper than in Washington's
time. Labor is far better paid.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
The Organ of British Public Opinion

The New York Times of the Sth inst,
contains news dispatch from st. Louis
stating that 1900 hands were out on
strike at Neidringhaus' tin plate mill. y
Now the Times editorial columns of that
date persistently assert that no tin plate
is manufactured in this country. Then
how can there be this big strike in a
'.tin plate mill?" Fact is better than
theory-even if it does prove the thunder
ing old Times vicious and malicious
liar, and enemy to the best interests Of
America. 1t is printed on British
presses and owned, edited, printed, and
read by British people. So what does it
know about American affairs anyway /?

VOTE FOR MKINLEY!

Every Union soldier and especially
every pensioner should vote for Mckin
! ley. the peerless champion of American
| protection, their conrade IN 1S61-65 and
their steadfast friend ever since. 1t is
upon protection that the perpetuity OF
our generous pension system depends.
With free trade would inevitably come
great decrease in pension appropria-
tons, and great hardship upon men who
could lily afford to stand it. Stand by
protection: upon that rests the prosper
ity of every citizen. Elect Mckinley
this year and the future will be safe.
The Mckinley bill is far-reaching in
its effects. 1t has given the Canucks
cheap sugar, as well as the Americans
The Dominion government was COM
PEELED to abolish the duty on sugar,
which was the principal source of its
from gaining stronger foothold. Still
Canada is coming into the American
Union before another century dawns-
and that, too, upon our own terms.
Washington, Franklin and Hamilton
were protectionists. They declared that
the taritf-a high protective tariff at
that. much higher than the Mckinley
tarlf-was our surest safeguard against
foreign domination. They believed in
America being free, enlightened and hap
py, not the vassal of England, like un-
happy Ireland. 1t is safe to follow their
advice yet. 1t always will be safe.
Keep it before the people. Mckinley
stands for an honest dollar in business;
an honest days wages for an honest
days work; an honest administration of
State affairs; an honest ballot and a fair
count in both state and national politics.
If you honestly desire the best interests
of your country you will vote for him.
No man ever drafted a wiser measure
than the Mckinley tariff law. 1t will
stand the test of close examination, and
experience will prove it vastly beneficial
to all classes of the American people,
though especially to farmers and labor
ers. 1t is built to stand.
The people are for Mckinley, because
Mckinley has always been for the plain
common people. whom President Lin
coin loved so well. 1t is their time to
honor him now, as citizens of a great
commonwealth.

than thirty seven months continuous,
faithful and meritorious service. His
regiment was one of the most distin-

In the conduct of life, habits count for
more than maxims, because habit is a
living maxim, becomes flesh and instinct.
To reform ones maxims is nothing; it is
but to change the title of book. To
learn new habits is everything, for it is
to reach the substance of life. Life is
but tissue of habits.
