Awaiting OhIO's Verdict.

Ohio 10 evidently to be the focal point
of public interest in the political cam
paigns OF the year. Already the atten-
tion Of all who keep watch of current
events 10 largely centered on the Buck
eye State. The reason is perfectly clear.
Recent events have given to the tariff
question deep and eager interest not
heretofore generally felt. The immi.
nent danger of disastrous changes in
the national revenue system has made
the issue one almost Of life or death to
many hundreds of struggling m anufac-
turers and TO uncounted thousands of
workingmen now idle or in danger of
being thrown out of employment The
tremendous and far reaching import
ance of the question whether protection
shall be withdrawn from American in
dustries has been driven home by the
general distress of the last few mon tbs.
Men hitherto Indifferent to what they
considered a dispute mainly between
politicians, now await with painful in.
terest and emotion the first declaration
by q great body of voters which will
throw light upon the future policy OF
the American people. Naturally they
look to Ohio. Here is a State largely
devoted to the industries which, in an
especial sense, are under the protection
of the tariff system of the Republican
party. The electorate is above the av.

The Right Ring.

We stand out squarely, without pre-
varication or subterfuge, for the bene-
ficent principle of protection to the
labor and industries of our country,
and we count the man or the party
hostile to the general welfare that es-
pouses free trade in the United States.
under whatever guise or name, W hether
secretly or openly. We do not advo-
cate protection without revenue, nor
do we regard any given set of rates or
schedules beyond criticism or amend
ment, but we do say that true patriot
ism demands the application of the
protective principles to the methods
for levying customs duties, to the end
that American industries be encoura-
ged and American labor have better
wages Massachusetts, Rep. Platform.
The Massachusetts Republicans have
flung the banner of protection to home
industry and labor to the wind, and
propose to make the fight long those
lines. And if the Press is not greatly
mistaken, the Hon. Frederic T. Green
halge is just the sort of man to stir up
true Republican sentiment. With an
object lesson of threatened free trade
and general distrust of Democracy in
nearly every manufacturing center of
the State, good old fashioned, vigorous
Republican doctrine will arouse the
people and turn them from the folly of
1899. There is more sturdy Republi-
can virility in the Massachusetts plat
form than in any State platform adop-
ted by the party this fall. If thor
oughly and fearlessly awakened by
Republican journals and speakers, the
Commonwealth of Massac achusetts will
be where it rightly belongs after the
votes are counted in November. New

erage in intelligence, and the two great
parties are nearly enough balanced to
render the verdict of the coming cleo
ton significant beyond dispute. Last,
but by no means least, the Republican
candidate for Governor 80 embodies the
spirit and principles of protection that
no platform is needed to make the issue
clear to Ohio and to the entire country.
With William Mckinley at the head of
the Republican ticket nothing can OBJ
scure or force back from the front of
battle the banner of the American tar
if system. Personalities can cut no
figure in the campaign. The fight will
be fair and open from beginning to
end. For these reasons the eyes of the
Nation are on Ohio, and men of all
parties will turn hither more and more
as the campaign progresses to find light
upon the political and business future
of the country.-Cleveland Leader.

Cruelty to Children.

A poor little tot discovers the amaz-

er, who is reported by the Times as try
ing to teach her little seven year old to
spell.
"T-o-z-e," answered the child.
mo, dear, that's not right. Toes
spells toes"
but it sounds like t-o.z.e."
II know it, but you can not 60 by

Then in order to enforce this propo-
sition the mother called on her daugh-
ter to spell froze.
"Fro-e-s," said the child.
mo, you're wrong again. This time
we do use the and spell the word
f-r-oz-e."
Huh" grunted the child.
Now spell rose, " said the mother
The child hesitated. Finally she
said-"I don't know whether to say
r-o-z-e or r-o-e-s, and l don 7 know that
either way would be right"
"Spell it ro-s,e," said the mother,
though there is another word pronoun-
ced just like it that's spelled ro-e-s.
That word is the name of the spawn of
fishes"
The poor little girl looked very mis-
erable.
Just one word more" said the moth
er. TELL me how you spell blows"
WELL" said the child, who had had
quite enough nonsense, as she viewed
1t, from her mother, and had suddenly
made her mind to pay back in kind, 81
spell it three ways-I spell it b-l-o-s.e
for breakfast, bio e-s for dinner, and

the mother.
The child said nothing for minute
or two, then looking up she suddenly
remarked-"I think, mamma, that the

tried and convicted by ballot When
ever a robbery is committed the rule of
the hamlet summons the entire male
population and requests them to write
on slip of paper the name of the per-
SOD they suspect as having committed
the crime. The one receiving the larg-

THE GULF COAST HORROR
Hundreds Of DecOmpOsing Bodies In
Louisiana Marshes.


The news from every section stricken
by the storm makes it safe to estimate
the loss of life at fully 1900, while mil
lions of dollars worth Of property was
destroyed. Besides that, thousands
of people have been deprived of the
means of making livelihood. The
situation is appalling, but New Orleans
is doing all it can to relieve those in
want. DR.. Story, Coroner of Plaque
mine Parish, has made the following
report: "a good many carloads of
provisions and clothing have been sent,
but not near enough. Men, women and
children are without food and clothing.
They have become so desperate that
they have threatened to attack the
stores and steal food. It is frequent
thing to see little sufferers crying and
begging piteously for something to eat.
Single graves for the dead were impos-
sible. Great trenches were dug and
bodies were piled in one on top of the
other. The earth was thrown over them,
and If their names were ascertained
they were cut in rude crosses above the
graves. do not think I exaggerate
the facts when l state that at least g.
500 souls we're ushered into eternity by
the recent storm in Louisiana. This. of
course, includes the Bayou Cook county
Cheniere Camanda, Grand Isle, etc.
II never saw bodies decompose 30
rapidly as those of the storm sufferers
which were viewed by me. This was
due TO the fact that the fish and crabs
in the bayous eat the remains l be-
lieve firmly that the marshes and
other places are filled with human
forms. 1t is impossible to get at these
however, as no one is adventurous
enough to explore the swamps. There
can be no doubt of the fact that this is
conducive to an epidemic of fever or
even cholera. If one case of the latter
disease should develope it would spread
through the country like wildfre, but
nothing can be done to prevent this.
1.-The relief party which set out from
Biloxi tells an awful story of the desti
tuition AID loss of life in the Louisiana
marches The marshes are filled with
dead and putrefying bodies. In very
few cases are the corpses recognizable.
The number of lives lost ON these
marshes will never be known. The ter
ritory covered was distance of 200
miles. Newly made graves were every
where. The only sign of life seen in
the marsh was one raccoon floating on
a log. Hundreds of oyster boats and
luggers we're lost with most of their
crews, and the few survivors tell terri
BILE stories of suffering. Most of them
we're nude when found"
Captain Julian Lefort, the leading
spirit among the survivors of the
Cheniere Camanada, places the num-
Der saved at 800. The population of
the island and bayous Immediately
connected with 1t was slightly more
than 1900. He says the place will be
abandoned as a habitation of man.
Grand Isle and Chemedeleur will also
be abandoned.
