The window of Estes & Wards store
had a strong fascination for pedestrians
yesterday, as therein was displayed a
grand crayon photo, two-thirds size, of
the late Vim. b. Morrill,, the work of a
| Boston artist.
This fine likeness is for presentation TO
Somerset Lodge, +. & A. NJ, the gift of
Mrs. Chas. Smith, daughter of Mr.. Nor
rill, who sometime since deputized Messrs
W. X. G. Estes and l.. g. Emery to pro-
cure it, W tn the instructions to "procure
only the best that money can purchase,
and one that you will always feel proud
to treasure" These gentlemen placed
the order with Marcus f. King of Port
land, and the many iiatterlng compliments
bestowed on the picture tell how well the
instructions Of Mrs. Smith were complied
with.
The presentation will occur at the next
meeting Of the lodge.

SOME CURRENT COMMENT.

Congressman Mills is serenely confident
as to Ohio. He has been doing grand work
for the Democracy among the Buckeyes,
and his confidence ought to inspire the
watchers of the battle Kansas City
Times.
Annually Rutherford B. Hayes delivers
an address before the Prison reform aSso-
citation on better methods Of caring for con-
victs. Considering that Hayes enjoyed the
fruits of steal which defrauded Iilden of
the presidency and should have landed the
men who perpetrated the theft and the
man who enjoyed the results o. it in the
penitentiary, it is eminently fitting that he
should pose as the friend of all convicts.

No holder fight for an honest principle
has ever been made in this country than
that now being waged by the anti-lottery
press Of Louisiana. Too many newspapers
in the state have been corrupted by the
lottery influence, and the honest journals
that are today assailing the evil on every
hand and thereby shaming their pro-lottery
contemporaries, honor the profession of
journalism while they exalt the cause of
good government. These newspapers are
entitled to the thanks Of the American
people on account Of their bold efforts for
reform and their rejection of corruption,
but more particularly is their fight worthy

1t is curious fact that in New York,
Ohio and Massachusetts,, while the Demo-
Gratis are vigorously advocating Democracy,
in each of these states the Republicans,
recognizing the unpopularity Of protection,
are trying to shift the fight to some side is
sue. In Ohio Mckinley, every chance he
gets, drops the tariff and discusses coinage;
in New York Fassett is trying to make a
Tammany fight, while in Massachusetts,
Allen is saving the air and giving the rebel
brigadiers fits. AS there are none OF them,
nor any friends of theirs, nor, in fact, any
one interested in them likely to be met with

European immigration to this country is
slowly but continually increasing. At times
there is a temporary lull in the tide, but it
is soon seen rising again, and many are cast
ing anxious eyes seaward, wondering whence
the accommodating waters dow. Recently
published statistics show that the lmmi-
grant lists for 1891 are greater than those
of 1890 and the years which went before.
The coming Of SO many foreigners means
much in every way-much to them and
much to the country of their adoption. 1t
means increased industrial force and
rapid development OF resources on this side
of the ocean. 1t means multiplying respon-
sibilities to the government, and vast
strain upon our civilization. 1t means also
the introduction Of degraded and criminal
element which we might well spare But
concediug all this, there is, perhaps, no
reason to fear for America and the final
triumph of enlightened free govern
ment.-[Baltimore Herald.

CARRIED BY STORM.
The Reception Gov. Campbell Received in
Northwestern Ohio-Ke Makes the
Farmers Laugh Till They Cry.

TOLEDO, ONO, Oct. Ex-Governor
Campbell's campaign through the Demo-
cratic counties of the Northwest is unpre-
cedented in the history of the politics Of
this section of the state. Before his APP
pearance on the scene the Democratic lead
ers feared there would be a loss of votes
on account of the third party movement.
His meetings were held in all the counties
where the third party was supposed to be
strongest, and the receptions accorded the
governor have dispelled all fears on that
account.
After the meeting at st. Ma.
rvs last night the governor and
this morning proceeded to Bowling Green.
the county seat OF Wood county. Ten
thousand people We're about the stand
when the governor began his speech.
The governors handling of the
tariff question to-day was mastery.
In his speech at Ada, Maj. Mckinley had
told about the tariff the Canadian farmer
to Buffalo, and asked his audience
TO inquire of the Canadian farmer who paid
the tax. The governor showed by the re-
port of the Republican cole tor of customs
at Buffalo, that last year but
three bushels of Canadian wheat entered
that portion American consumption and that
was used for seed by American farmers
by the tariff. IF the major wants TO
know who paid the tax in this case" said
the governor, ''let him go and hunt up the
American farmer who purchased this seed
wheat from his Canadian neighbour
The governors description of the Ameri-
can and Canadian farmers was one Of the
brightest bits of sarcasm ever
audience laughed until big tears ran down
their cheeks, and there were many ludi-
crous references to 'Jirnmy's'' man
ner of getting there.' Assuming a
serious tone the governor admonished
his auditors that they must not become too
hilarious, as it disturbed the funeral ar
engagements now in progress in the
Republican camp, and the Republi-
can newspapers were complaining Of
the noise being made by the Democratic
meetings this year.
On the governors arrival in this city he
was met at the station by band and sew
eral Democratic clubs: A night
meeting was held in Memorial hall
and it was fairly jammed with voters.
Every bit Of standing room was occupied.
The corridors We're filed with people, and
thousands We're unable to get into
the building. Many waited about
in order to get glimpse OF the Democratic
standard-beare but those inside stuck to
their posts to the very close of the meeting.
Inc governors speech to-nlgnt was devoted
to the tariff. He made an entertaining COM
parison of wages paid in this and other pro-
tected and free-trade countries. His dis
cussion of trusts and their relation to tariffs
evoked the widest enthusiasm. His au-
dience was composed largely Of workingmen
and he was constantly interrupted by cries
of "Ycu are right, governor" and "That is
the way to give it to them
At the conclusion of his speech he re-
ceived large number Of Democrats at his
room in the hotel.

footsteps Of their old leaders.
The microbe can't live in idleness in this
industrious werid. Science has fixed her
eagle eye on the microbe, and has announced
that it can be used in the preparation OF
fax fiber. Heretofore it has taken several
months to rot the straw 50 that the fiber
could be separated. 1t is now discovered
that the rotting is brought about by mi
crobes, and that they can be artif1cially
bred for this purpose in vast numbers, so
that enough microbes can be turned on the
fiber to do the business In few hours.
This discovery, it is said. will soon make
linen as cheap as cotton.
The Atlanta Herald, after making the
statement that the Alliance of Georgia is
made up of Republicans as well as Demo-
Gratis, asks: 'Is it right for Republican
to votes for delegates to Democratic con-
ventionsl The Herald is unalterably OPP
posed to such an outrage, and the fact that
he is an Allianceman doesn't affect the prin-
ciple in the slightest. The next Democratic
conventions held in Georgia must be held
with due regard to the old-time Democratic
usage" The Mobile Register, quoting
this, declares that a worse state OF things
prevails in that state, that in many of the
northern counties ''the Republicans and In
dependents are running the Alliance. Their
nominations are tantamount to Republican
nominations, and are entitled to no respect
from the Democratic party
