pressed brick. for Mrs. Edward Hazlett.

pressed brick, for Mrs. Edward Hazlett
on North Main street; similar residence
adjoining, for j. K. List; alterations and
additions to the residence of Nelson
Noble, on Virginia street: alterations to
residence of George Wise, on North
Front street.
Workmen have already commenced to
tear down the Hldreth property on
Chapline street, near Twelfth, on the
site Of which double four story resi-
dence of pressed brick and stone will be
built according to plans by Architect
Franzheim. Anton Reymann's new
palatial residence at the corner OF Fiji
teenth and Eoff streets is progressing
rapidly, the basement foundation, one
of the handsomest in the city, being
nearly completed.
Architect Giesey has just prepared
plans for contemplated hotel at the
corner of Twelfth and Chapline streets,
to be erected by the Odd Fellows Asso-
citation. The plans provide for house
having sixty-eight rooms, and fitted up
in the most approved modern style.
The building will cost about S25, 900 and
the idea is to run it as an European
hotel.
The plan is to lower the top story OF
the present Odd Fellows Hall proper,
which has been found to be too high for
good acoustic effects. The new floor
will be supported on steel beams.
Above this will be constructed
another story of handsome design,
and this story will be a part of the
hotel. The entrance to the hotel will be
on Twelfth str eet, west Of the hall,
where two old two-story buildings now
stand. Here fve-story building will
be erected, to be used as hotel, dining
room on the first floor, with roomy
lobby in front. The parlors and several
sample rooms will be on the second
floor 1t will probably be some time
before operations are commenced, as
there are several leases there which do
not run out fora year or so. In the
event of the new hotel going up, it is
rumored that c. E. Van KeureD,
proprietor of Van Keuren's Hotel, will
be the head and front of the enterprise.

GOVERNOR CAMPBELL OF DECK.


Democrats all over the country will be GLAD
that Governor Campbell. Of Ohio, has SUN
GENTLY recovered his health to take active
part in the political campaign in his State
and that he has taken bold and aggressive
stand. In bis opening speech at Sidney
Thursday he devoted his time TO the discussion
Of the tariff and silver questions and made
some telling points against bis opponents.
On the subject Of the tariff he rightly said
that Major Mckinley, although the Trainer
and special patron Of the present monopolists
tariff, had, from the beginning OF the cam
paign, shirked the issue and endeayored 10
OBSCURE il with free silver. thereby showing
that he was afraid even in his own State ana
among his own constituents % dwell upon
bis own iniquitous measure. He IS evidently
acting on tho principle that, as far as the
tariff is concerned. the least said the
soonest mended," and so while touch
ing on that subject very gingerlY ana
no more than be is absolutely obliged
30 DO he dwells with suspicious earnestness
upon the free silver plank of the Democratic
platform. The Governor made palpaole bit
when he said that tho apprehension Of the
Republicans over this. their pet bantling, was
the most encouraging feature Of the cam
psign. and it IS "a source Of great satisfaction
that Governor Campbell and his co-workers
are determined that the Republicans shall
not dodge the issue which they themselves
have made and emphasized By the nomina-
ton Of Mckinley.
The Governor also very conclusively ex-
posed the hypocrisy Of the Republican party
in general regarding free silver. lie took up
tho record of Major Mckinley himself on this
question. and showed how he had voted. as
far back o. 1877, for free coinGge-the very
thing he was now denouncing and that he
was claimed by the free silver men as one Of
their champions as late as 1880. lie also
showed that the Republicans especially in the
Central and Western States, were seriously
divided among themselves over the free
coinage Of silver and that in the United
States Senate while twenty-six Senators voted
against free silver. sixteen voted for 10.
Nothing moro conclusive was needed to show
that wh.ein Ohio Mckinley was now stult-
tying hispast record by posing as O sound cur
rency champion bis party elsewhere were
by L. means united IN It's favor
VIII tho Democrats Of Ohio aggressive in
the line which Governor Campbell las
marked ont in the opening speech Of his cam
pagn there need De little apprehension Of
the result II the voters Of that State are gov
erned by principle. That they are over
whclfningly opposed to the monopoIists' tariff
there IL no doubt, and that they readily see
through tho fimsiness Of Mckinley attitude
on the silver question is equally apparent.
The money OF tho protected monopolists
however. viii be poured out Ike water. for
McKinleys defeat means tho doom of McKin-
lousm Whether the average Ohio man can
stand the pressure Of Doodle against princi-
pie IT, therefore, the unknown quantity Of the
problem.

COLONEL RuFFrN,s LETTER.

We publish in another column an article
from Colonel Frank g. Ruflin, criticising
some remarks Of Tur TnfEs as unreesonably
hopeful Of settlement Of the state debt.
As The facts upon which this hope was
based are given. we still entertain It, despite
the dscouragement Of Colonel Huflins state
ment Though not officially stated, 1t has
leaked out" that at the recent informal con
ference between the representatives OF
tie bondholders and the commissioners
OF the state the amount which d.
yided them was s2.OoO,O 900 at 8 per cent per
annum or eco. 900 moro OF annual charge l. o.
the bondholders wanted their debt capital
lied at e.. 900 900 at per cent. moro than the
commissioners would allow, or. in other
words. tho commissioner. demanded that the
interest should be reduced 70 3 per cent. and
the amount Of indebtedness due the bond
holders should be scaled Sil,000,000' while
the bondholders. conceding the per cent.
interest protested against cutting tho amount
Of the debt down moro than 99,0)0,O0). Wo
cannot state this upon confirmation strong
as proofs Of Holy Writ" but we believe that
this statement is.true. More than this If tho
whole debt il settled as provided for
by tho scheme which il IS said will be
acceptable 10 tho bondholders the entire an
nual interest Of the State will be loss than
300 900. When we remember that tho set
tlement proposed in 1877 by the Coryphens OF
Readiusters involved an annual interest
charge Of nearly 81. 600 000h wouldseemto an
ordinary observer that the Beadjustar party
had accomplished enough 10 satisfy their
ambition in obtaining. after fourteenyear5, IN
which large additions 10 the debt have
accrued from interest, an annual charge Of
about 500. 900.
And what is 100000 a year TO the State Of
Virginia. with her great resources, her rapid
development and tho fresh spirit Of enter
prise and courage which now restrains the
tide Of emigration from her borders which
has heretofore taken the very life blood from
her heart and keeps at homo those Of her
sons who have distinguished themselves in
building up the prosperity Of other states:
The assertion that this 100000 per annum
is beyond her ability puts Virginia upon tie
horns Of dilemma. Size must either deny
tho statements which have been made Of her
resources and prosperity or size cannot refuse
q sum which amounts on an average 10 only
about fC0O apiece t. each Of her counties and
the return forwhich would bean incaicuiebie
and priceless benefit the restoration Of her
financial character.
