wor,d,s FAIR closed ON sunday


Bya,o,e OF "a 4. the local directory of the
Columbian Exposition have decided that the
gates of Jackson Park shall hereafter remain
closed on Sunday They very gracefully &C
knowledge that the attendance thus far has
pretty efIectually demonstrated that the Amer
ican public at large does not desire the exposf-
tion to be open seven days in the week. They
also say in their resolution to close. that the
number of employees necessary to keep the Fair
open ON Sunday 10 disproportionate to the NUM-
Der Of employees necessary to keep the Fair
open on Sunday is disproportionate to the num-
Der Of visitors on that day.
without discussing the merits of the PROPOSE.
items for and against Sunday opening. we are
of the same opinion now as at the beginning of
the controversy. and think the exposition should
not only be clos ed on Sundays from now on. but
that it never should have been open on that day
because of the agreement made with the gov
eminent in the first place. If keeping the Fair
open on Sunday offended the religious world,
violating q solemn contract displessed much
greater number of people who see no objection
to Sunday opening as such, but base their OBJ
jections solely on the moral obligation OF mu"
tual promike or covenant made.
We are of the opinion that the action of the
Directors is q wise one and that the interests OF
the great exposition have been materially ad-
vanced thereby. 1t will certainly place 1t and
its managers in better light before the Amer
lea n people, who believe in doing as they agree.
No one ever makes a mistake by respecting the
sanctity of his word. whether given to an indi.
yidual or the nation.

There will be no change in the date for the
Democratic State Convention as was supposed
when the President called Congress to meet the
same week. 1t will be held in Cincinnati Au
gust 9th and 10th. The Ohio Democrats con-
slider thems elves and their convention fully as
important as the Congress OF the United States
and will 20 ahead with the nomination of a
ticket and the construction of platform. This
platform. by the way. will be in the nature of
instruction to Congress, telling it what to do on
the silver question and everything else.
The citizens of Cincinnati, without regard to
party. are arranging to give magnificent re-
ception to all delegates and visitors. and the
week promises to be full of interest and enter
tainment to everybody. The visiting newspa-
per men win be entertained by committee
appointed for that purpose. james w. Faulk-

Cincinnati has not had Democratic Stale
Convention since 1876. That convention was a
notable one presided over by George II. PEN
dleton. The chief work was the selection of
delegates to the National Convention at St
Louis. One faction of the party desired the
nomination of VIM. Allen for President, and
another favored Allen G.. ThurmBn. Tue con-
vention finally endorsed Allsn, although the
majority of delegates were at heart Thur
Thurman supporters, The delegates at large
wele George w. Morgan, Gen. Thomas Ewing.
Col. W. L. O'Brien and Senator Pendleton.
The fact that the candidate for Governor and
the general State Ticket is to be nominated at
Cincinnati next month will make the coming
convention of far more general interest than
that of 1876. No one can deny that Cincinnati
is the best place in Ohio for convention. not
alone because of her Music Hall, but ON account
OF the good treatment and hospitality which
The bestows upon all visitors.

The Cleveland Leader is attempting to start
Republican boom for Akron and Summit county
The Leader says it is some time since Akron has
had any considerable Republican rally. and very
adroitly suggests that the Summit City be not
further neglected. but that the g. o. p. campaign
be opened there. If the Leader had been frank
enough to state what is patent to all its readers
it would have said that the Mckinley managers
are afraid of Summit county. and recognize that
nothing short of concentrating their most for
midable machinery at that point will ever make
any perceptible change in the political situation
of Akron and Summit county.
Summit County is a horrible nightmare to
them. and in recommending Akron for first
honors" in the coming campaign. they have a
very different motive than to simply compliment
that splendid city. They know too well the in
fuenee of such a county. and the inevitable eff
feet it will have in helping along the cause of
Democracy in adjoining counties. Summit Coun :
ty. their former pride and stronghold. is in the
hands of the enemy. and by fair means or foul.
it must be won back again. That is what they
mean by naming Akron for the rallying point,
and that is the reason of their compliment to
the pIaoe.

Wasting Time.

An old farmer died in little village
in the neighborhood of Paris. His
fortune, the fruit of years of patient
toll, was invested in nice, compact
little farm. A nephew, believing him
self to be heir, called few days later
on the lawyer, and before saying word
about the succession thought it only
right and proper to she'd few tears.
Poor uncle" he murmured; $50
kind, so afectionate! 10 think that l
shall never see him again!"
The notary allowed the young man
to give full vent to his sorrowfuI emo
tions, after which he quietly observed:
Il suppose you are aware that your
uncle has left you nothingP"
"What?" exclaimed the nephew, sud-
denly changing his tone. "Tm not

"sunset"-A Prose Poem.

The sun is deep in the west. Her
heavenly bed is made. The evening
red, her old, old, true servant, has ar
ranged her purple pillows.
1t is warm day and the sun is
tired. She prepares herself for retire
ment. The pressing, heavy, gorgeous
raiment she has stripped off-she is
about to grasp the last of her golden
ringlets.
Now she stands there in the deepest
negligee! Unconsciously the blush of
shame appears upon her cheeks. A
last shy look in the world had any
one seen her?
And truly, there he looked asquint,
already above the horizon, cautiously,
only part of his face-the moon! the
impudent moon!
He has always got to look; no one is
ever secure from him.
Suddenly, with glow on her face,
she throws him an extremely angry
look and jumps into bed. The purple
pillows close together over her like
flames.
Sleep well, Madame Sun.
