LAST fall Mother Fairfield, the
nursery of Democracy, fell short
FIVE hundred in her usual Demo.
cratic majority. Last Monday,
Sister Lancaster, Democratic since
her birth a hundred years ago,
went Republican. Lancaster has
two Democratic (?) papers and the
Republican Gazette of that city,
with mephistopolen grin, says
that Republicans are subscribing
stock to start another paper, a
Lancaster Ohio Democrat. The
investment, the Gazette thinks,
will be the quickest and cheapest
plan for the Republicans to adopt
in order to disrupt and destroy the
Democratic party.

Logan School Election.

The Logan school election was
quite spirited, and for a time
centsred all of public interest.
Two tickets were in The field.
Until Saturday evening, it was
not known any opposition would
be offered 10 The reelection oil the
Warner and Wright ticket. The
opposition was 10 Wright.
The two tickets were Warner
and Wright and Warner and Hen
derson. The election resulted as
follows:
Whole number of votes cast. ..61S
Warner........... ..... ...".-..49S
wright .......... ....4S4
Henderson ............... ...........188
Warner being on both tick els,
it will be seen that 12O "pluEgers,"
as the boys call it, that is. tickets
with but one name on them,
were cast.

The CONSPICUOUS fact stares us
in the face. Logan, Democratic

Democrats whose voies contrib

don't.

SENATOR ABBOTT.
THE MORGAN COUN-
TY STATESMAN.
Invites a Chapter in Ancient His
tory Read for Public En-
tainment.

We copy the following from the
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette:
Some of the opposition to the
Cincinnati Water works bill is of
a peculiar kind, to say the least.
Senator Abbott who has been a
bitter and uncompromising oppo-
nent of the measure, has stated to
several persons that the reason of
his opposition was that Governor
Foraker tried to defeat his election,
and that he did not propose to do
anything which would be for the
ex-Governor's benefit.
He was asked by the CONNER
cial Gazette correspondent why he
was opposed to the bill. He said:
81 oppose it for two or three rea-
sons. The first of these is purely
personal. Governor Foraker's
friends tried to prevent my cleo
ton, and l don't intend to do any
thing that will be of benefit to him."
"You don't mean to say that
Governor Foraker tried to defeat
you?" said the correspondent.
"Well, l believe he had hand
in it," the Senator answered. The
injustice of this need not be ex-
planned to any one who knows the
history of Mr.. Abbott's nomina-
tion and candidacy. He was NOM
mated as distinctly Foraker man
over Henry Cleveland, pronounc-
ed Sherman man, and there are in |
existence letters written by him, in |
which he emphatically and enthu-
s;astically pledged himself to the
support of the Ex-Governor. 1t
was discovered just before the cleo
ton that he had been won over to
the other side, and some of the
men who had aided in his nomina-
ton were so indignant that his de-
feat was lmminent-was, in fact,
almost certainty. Governor Fora
ker heard of this, and Immediately
tclegraphed bis leading friends IN
the district, and induced them to
undo the work they had done for
Abbott's defeat.
They started out over the dis
trict, put their friends at work and
secured Abbott's election. Not
less than hundred kilograms SINH
ar to the following were sent out:
Cinclnnati November, 2, 1891.
Hon. J Frame, Chairman, &C. Athens U.
Reported here opposition among

ference. The Importance of a Re

everything else, and l would rather
not get a vote than to have it
Democratic.
J. B. FORAKER.
And the following;
"Cincipnati, November 2, 1891.

ID himself to Sherman, and in con-
sequence some of my friends do

Tho Senate Adjoarns Out OF Respect to
Senator Gibson's memorial Prayer for
Mr.. Blnino's Recovery.
WASHINGTON, D. O., Dec. 19.-The at
tendance of senators this morning was
very small, not more than forty being
in the chamber when the opening
prayer was offered by Chaplain Butler.
The desk and chair recently occupied
by, Mr.. Gibson, of Louisiana, were
draped in black; md the death OF that
senator last Thursday as well as the
alarming illness of Mr.. Blaiue, was feel
ingly referred to in these sentences in
the chaplain's prayer:
"Have mercy upon us We again stand
in the shadow OF death thrown upon
this chamber. ata Regard with
great mercy thy servant to whose sick
bed SO many eyes and hoarts arc now
turned. We thank thee for his long
and useful lilo. II it please Thee, spare
that life aud restore and strengthen 1t;
and give peace to him and to US who
watch so tenderly in this time of sick
ness" 81
AS soon rs Thursdays journal was
read, Mr.. German arose and announced
the death OF Senator Gibson in these
words:
"At the request of the senator from
Louisiana, Mr.. White. who is now en-.
gagged in rendering affectionate services
to his colleague, it Is made my business
to-day to announce to the senate tho
death of the Hon. Randall Lee Gibson,
the senior senator from the state OF
Louisiana.
Msenator Gibson had very high
place in the estimation and affections OF
his associates in this body. Ills great
personal worth and his eminent public
services had made their impression on
our hearts and judgment. We feel and
deplore the unspeakable loss which the
senate, his state aud the country bear
in his death. His inestimable value as
senator and O. a man Is we'll known to
all Of us. His death is profound
afiliction to US, and O serious bereaYe-
ment to his people and the country.
He was great and good man. bis
mental faculties and his moral qualities
were OF very high order. 1t Is not too
much to say that his love Tor Louisiana
had no limit and that his large heart
embraced in Its patriotism the whole
union. He has left to his counttymen
the example Of a useful, honorable and
patriotic life; and he has left to us, his
survivors here, the memory OF q tricnd-
ship unalloyed by regret"
Mr.. German closed by Offering the u.s.

WAsHINaroS, D. O., Dec. 19.-The
treasury department was kept fully ad-

today and Secretary Foster was in con-
ference with his assistants several
times on the situation. After the depart
ment closed assistant Secretaries,
Messrs. Gear, spaulding and Lambert
son gathered in the secretary's room
and discussed the events OF the day.
There reporter found them with no
indication OF any excitement apparent.
The secretary said, in answer 70 9
question based on q report printed in
New York stating that he was much
exercised over the matter, and intended
to come over to New York to consult
tho bankers: 81 am not going to New
York to confer with bankers or any one
else about the financial sitution. There
is nothing in 1t to warrant such action.
The idea has not previously occurred to

"You have noticed the engagements
for gold shipments tomorrow and the
paniclly feeling reported on the stock
exchanged" Il
"oh, Yes. But there was more com.
Portable condition OF things at the close,

Gas to tho gold in tho treasury" con-
tinued the secretary, 1--WE are all right,
Last month the exports from this coun.
try amounted to 100000 lof dollars
but the treasury lost half million
only. Tho reserve limit has been fixed
at $l00, 600 o0Ol and have $24, ,000, 600
more than that. Tho resources OF this
country are more varied than most peo-
pie know and the money paid to the
treasury can be used for replacing the
amount sold. The money is needed
west and south to buy grain, provisions
and cotton, and II ! can save man five
or elk hundred dollars on million he
does not stop at giving me gold in New
York for currency laid down for him
wherever he wants 1t. II they get us
down in this matter 1t will be only af-
ter a long fight and hard one.
Continuing the secretary said 1--WE
have nearly Se00.000,060 Of gold
in the United States. II two
hundred millions were 10 90 out
It would result in the reduc-
ton Of our public debt to that extent
with the accompanying saving OF inter-
est on that amount. lam not at allun-
easy regarding the situation, and If
Governor Gears friend wants to renew
his wager that gold will be at premium
before the 4th Of March I'll take it and
double it afterwards for the remainder
ofthe fiscal year ending June 80 next
Then the secretary and Mr.. Gear fell
to exchanging observations on the pros
porous condition Of the country shown
In the purely agricultural portions,
notably Iowa, Governor Gears own
state.
