EDUCATION on the farm has come to

have educated farmers, or famiues; but
it will not be education in dead Ian

door. How TO do it, and do it to profit,
is what the rising generation is eager TO
find out, and the schools must help
them do that.

elected to congress, as a democrat, by a
close vote. He was reelected, and when
his second term was ended, in 1879, was
chosen mayor of Chicago, in which of
ice he was continued for four biennial
terms. After settling up his private af-
fairs he started for journey around
the world, returning to Chicago just in
time to run as an independent demo-
cratic candidate against Dewitt c. Gre
gier, the regular nominee, in 1891. He
was defeated, but dragged his opponent
down with him. A few months ago
Harrison again became a candidate for
mayor, received the regular democratic
nomination, and was elected for the
fifth time to rule the destinies of the
greatest city in the west during the
period of the worlds fair.
Mr.. Harrison's principal opponent
during the recent campaign was Sam
uel Waters AIlerton, the republican
and citizens candidate, who received
almost $4,000 votes to Mr.. Harrisons
$4,000. Mr.. Allerton was born in
Armenia, Dutchess county, New York,
sixty-four years ago come May. His
stock is the sturdy stock of an old New
England family founded by an emil
graz tone Isaac Allerton who came
over here in the Mayfower. Mr.. Aller-
ton spent his boyhood in the country,
and when he was only thirteen years of
age began to develop the remarkable
tackled which has made his name known
throughout two continents. He first
attracted worldwide attention by open
ly charging that the gun makers who
supplied the German army with rifles
had grossly swindled the government
and that the fighting weapons of the
army were absolutely useless
These statements caused profound
sensation, but Ahlwardt was unable to
sustain his position and was convicted
of libel and imprisoned. A few days
ago he again made himself conspicuous
by declaring in the reichstag, of which
he is a member, that large sums of
money belonging to the government
had been dishonesty paid to certain
Hebrew speculators during Bismarck's
occupancy of the chancellorship. The
explosion of this bombshell fairly shook
the German empire, but Ahlwardt again
failed to sustain his rash statements
and was laughed and hissed out of the
reichstag. In the Judgment of many
the man is slightly unbalanced.

New YORK, Nov. 5.-New York state
for many years past has been noted for
tine rapidly changing currents OF public
opinion as evidence in the results Of the
annual election. The present election
apparently bids fair to bid itself copy
of its predecessors. The whole issue OF
the csmpaign seems to have been in
the nomination of Isaac H. Maynard
for associate judge for the court OF ap-
peals by the Democracy.
National issues have been almost en-
tirely ignored, and aside from an occa-
sional mention OF the financial troubles
that have so seriously racked the coun.
try for months past, and OF the actions
Of the senate holding back the repeal
OF the so-called Sherman silver bill,
nothing has been heard OF the ques.
tions which have been SO prominently
agitated both at Washington and in the
presD throughout the United States
since the calling OF the extra session OF
Congress. While Maynard is but one
OF the five state officers on the ticket,
the average voter, if asked, would pause
to think before he could tell the names
OF the other candidates.
The opposition to- Judge Maynard has
been Of such nature that all else was
lost sight OF and vividly recall the
charges made against him in 1891. In
that year several legislative seats were
contested after the election returns
from the fifteen congressional districts
were received Mt the Office Of the secre-
tary OF state. 1t is claimed by his op.
ponents that Judge Maynard in his Off.
Cial capacity, uulawfuIly removed from
the Office OF the secretary OF state the
election returns sent there by order of
the supreme court. 1t was charged
that the motive for this was to prevent
counting OF the returns by the board
OF canvassers until a new return could
be made out and forwarded.
The result Of the contest in the courts
practically sustained Judge Maynard
and gave the Democratic party q ma
joEity OF one in the state senate, giving
them also complete control OF every
department OF the state government.
Following this came number OF enact
ments by the legislature, reapportion-
ments OF Cong ressional and legislative
districts and other measures designed
to strengthen Democratic control OF the
state, On Judge Maynard's nomination
this year tho old charges were brought
against him For the first time in
several years the Democrats have had
to defend their candidates. A majority
Of the legal fraternity OF the state seem
to be opposed to Maynard and many
predict that lie will be defeated.
sanguine Republicans go SO far as to
claim a sweeping victory for their whole
ticket. The Democrats seem to have
little fear OF the loss OF the legislature
and while the Republicans may again
secure control Of the senate the more
conservative OF both parties believe
that the Democrats will havea majority
on joint ballot.

His Great Meeting mt Cincinnati Saturday
NIght-what He Thinks orthe Outlook.
CINCINNATI, o., Nov. 5.-Twenty thou
sand people turned out to hear McKin-
ley speak at the great Republican mass
meeting at music hall last night. Eight
thousand packed the vast hall to its ut
most. Windows and doors and aisles
we're crowded and almost twice as many
people stood outside, unable to gain en-
trance. Hon. Ben Butterworth address
ed a huge overflow meeting in the
streets outside Of the hall.
A thousand members OF various clubs
marched through the building to the
platform where the governor stood re.
turning their salutes. There was no
room for them, and they marched out
into the streets again. The notes OF the
great organ filed Music hall as Gov.
Mckinley came down the aisle, and the
roof echoed the deafening cheers OF the
audience as he Rscended the platform.
Matthew Addy acted as chairman OF
the meeting and introduced the gov
ernor. The crowd was a most orderly
one. Only once the speaker asked some
tin-horn friend to desist. II know it's
American tin," he said. "but-."
The rest was lost in the laughter that
followed.
The governor began his speech by
saying that this year politics is busi-
ness and business is politics. Patriot
ism and not partisanship should rule
the actions OF the voters at the coming
elections. Cleveland sent a message to
Congress asking the repeal of the Sher-
man silver law. II the Democratic
Congress had agreed with Sherman
that law would have been repealed a
year ago,
Wien It finally was repealed it re-
quired the votes OF Republican senators
and representatives to repeal it. When
ever anything was to be done the Re-
publican party in power or out OF
power must do it. He declaimed
against state bank notes and against
low tariff or free trade. He ridiculed
Meals statement about the good old
times before the war He concluded
with reference to the suspension Of
pensions and a plea for the veterans.
Outside Major Butterworth held the
enthusiastic attention OF large audi
ence, whose cheers were heard even at
the speakers desk within the hall.
This evenings meeting was one OF the
greatest ever held in Hamilton county.
The governor came in from Middle
town this morning. He said in an in
terview: 81 am feeling first rate, only l
understand the newspaper boys accom-
panying me are pretty well tagged out
/ have had wonderful meetings. be-
lieve can truly say they have almost
doubled everywhere what they were
two years ago. Then the tariff matter
was largely an experiment, to-day it is
an experience. Then the times were
prosperous, and you know that when
that is the case and everything going
smoothly men no not bother much.
They are content. But when there is
trouble, as in the present hard times,

then they are aroused, and ihar want
to know what the matter is and the rea-
son for it
"Ihave had men to say to me that
they never wanted to vote so bad in all
their lives as they do this time. My
meetings in Democratic counties have
been wonderful and quite equal to
what they have been in Republican
strongholds. 1 am more than assured
over the outlook"
On Tuesday, November Z, the electors
OF the state OF Ohio will choose agover-
nor, lieutenant governor, treasurer Of
state, attorney general, judge OF the
supreme court, member OF the board ot
public works and food and dairy COM
missioner on the state ticket, and on
the county ticket they will choose
members Of the senate and house Of
representatives forming the general as.
senblv and county officers. There are
also two amendments to the constitu-
ton to be voted on, one providing for
single representative districts, in coun-
ties where more than one representative
is elected, and the other taxation amend
ment.
The Republicans have practically re.
nominated their present state officers,
when brings Governor Mckinley and
Leutenant.Gover Harris as candi-
dates for second term. The Demo-
cratic nominee for governor is Law renee
7. Neal, OF Ross countp, and for lieu
tenant-governor, W. A. Taylor, OF Frank
lin county.
From the character OF the nomin-
ations for governor it has necessarily
almost been Il campaign based on ma
tional issues.
The Republicans from the beginning
claimed the election OF Mckinley by Il
majority ranging from $4,000 to 10000,
although Harrison's plurality last year,
with which comparison will be made,
was only 1912.
The Democrats do not concede these
claims, but they are by no means SO
confident OF carrying the state as are the
Republicans. Chairman Seward, OF
the Democratic State Committee, states
that he has made no estimate
Of the result, and that he
will not do so. He will only
say that he is hopeful OF making good
showing, and that he thinks tho Demo
Gratis will carry the legislature, as he
thinks they will win in Hamilton and
Cuyahoga counties.
Chairman Dick, of the Republican
state committee, also declines to give
an estimate, but it is learned that the
committee feels as certain OF carry
ing both branches OF the leg
islature as they do oil electing
Mckinley. There is sort OF under
standing that they expect at least 25,0OO
plurality for Mckinley. The Prohibl-
ton party and Populists each have
state tickets in the field.
