Americas Great Danger
AN ENGLISH COMMENTARY.

Said an eminent English scientist recently:
"The danger that confronts the great Ameri-
can people to-day is not the possible adop'
tion of wrong financial policy for the
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough, to be sure, but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible
national disease--I had almost said national
crime of overwork. The mad rush for
wealth is set ut killing pace, and thousands
fall by the way every year.
You are likely TO be one Of the victims
How do we know? Because it is the excep-
ton to find a man or woman of adult age in
perfect health. Nervous Disorders are
spreading with fearful rapidity. Among the
symptoms, are-Backache, Biliousness, Cold
Hands and Feet, Dizziness, Hot Flashes,
Fluttering Sensation, Painting, Headache,
Hysteria, Irritability of the Heart, Melan-
choly, Failing Memory, Palpitation, Rheu-
matism, Short Breath, Sleeplessness, Ner-
yous Dyspepsia, Sexual Debility, Fits, etc.

Know Nothingism Revived.

A low, contemplate, malignant, ,hyp-
ocritical, "know-nothirg" sheet, that
styles itself "The American Constltu-
tion," but which is slsnder upon the
constitution, and one of its most dead
ly enemies, found its way into our
sanctum the other day.
1t is an indirect attack upon the lib
critics of the American people, appeal
ing to that bitterest Of prejudices, re-
ligious intolerance, and of course is an
enemy to the constitution. tits under
taking to accomplish by deception
what it knows it can not and dares not
attempt openly. It is wolfin sleeps
clothing; the hand of Esau with the
motives of Jacob, an appeal to thai
self righteous class that brings those
who do not believe with it TO the stake
and claps It's hands with joy while they
are burning, that class that does not
know what the constitution Is. The
paper should be spurned from every
liberty-loving home.

towns collapse, all business stagnates,
but the wise farmer can snap his fingers
at these things. He is the monarch of
all he surveys on his broad acres. And
the honesty of his boys and the purity

its best manhood and womanhood.
The farmer is to be envied, and if he
is not contented with his lot, he is lack

Excellent Speeches.

We give the readers ofthe NORTH
WEST this week the two great speeches
of their standard bearers-Neal and
Taylor-which were delivered at New
ark, Sept. 14th, 1898. Both are cam
paign documents which will bear read
ing by every thinking voter In the
county, and we bespeak for them a
careful study by the people of Henry
county, regardless of politics. The
speeches are logical, full of reason and
truth, setting forth the issues of the
present campaign in plain and con-
vincing manner.
Read these speeches, voters, SO that
you can the more intelligently cast
your vote upon the 7th day of the COM
ing November.

1t is notorious fact that Ohio Day

His heelers and strikers. all drawing salar

but precious human life was wilfulIy risked

It was an ordeal that would have tried vet

Itwas cruel and uncalled for these young

1t has come to be quite generally
agreed among the thinking men of all

common to all creeds and one of the
main objects of this religious parla-

how important are those points on
which all agree and how unimportant
are the matters about which there is
fierce controversy. The result of this

The Fellows Who Bring About the

Col. w. A. Taylor, the Democratic
candidate for Lieutenant Governor,
in the Cincinnati Enquirer Of last Sat
urday, makes this statement, which
everyone should consider:
l was in Perry county the other day
and was shown list of the suspen-
sions in that county. Every man of
them is Democrat and every man of
them will in the end have his pension
restored to him, although twill be two
or three months perhaps before he get
his money. One of these Democratic
pensioners has found out how his PEN
sion came to be suspended. 1t was
done upon charges filed by a Republic
can neighbor of his own age, who did
not 60 into the service and who, when
the suspension notice came, said to the
Democratic pensioner: Snow, guess
you will vote the Republican ticket"
He had chuckled over his success in
getting the pension stopped and thus
his victim discovered his unpatriotic
duplici6y.
