The above are fac-similes OF admoni-

now a veritable mud-hole and frog

brief career as a statesman has proven
himself one of rare ability. An orator
and scholar, he is we'll equipped to
represent constituency of as great
magnitude as he may undertake. He
has represented Henry county in the
fullest sense of the word, giving salts
faction to Henry county people regard
less of politics, while down in Colum-
bus among his colleagues he is a gener-
al favorite. Mr.. Meyers is candidate
for denomination and in compliance
with the Democratic rule as well as a
reward for faithful services, he will re-
ceive denomination by acclamation

jority. He is representative of which
Henry county may justly feel proud,
and he will be returned.

"a mans greatness will find him
outn and the people will sooner or la
ter find the man himself. Such is the
case Of our own Dennis d. Donovan,
Of Deshler. The Cleveland Leader, al
though a radical Republican paper,
names twenty men who can knock out
Gov. Mckinley this fall and among
them is Dennis Donovan. There are
many reasons why Mr.. Donovan can
and will lead the State Democracy TO
victory In the coming gubernatoriaI
contest which are ably presented by
the Defiance Democrat when 1t says:
BY reason of location and the able
support given to the ticket for many
years, Northwestern Ohio has strong
claims for recognition at the head of
the ticket in the coming Democratic
State convention. In this locality
there are good men In. the Democratic
ranks who would give to the party q
strong leadership and an aggressive
campaignin the interest of a business
like and economical administration in
the affairs of the State. Among those
whose names might be most appropri-
ately mentioned In connection with
the Office of Governor, Is Hon. d. D..
Donovan, of Henry county, who Is now
ably and faithfully serving his second
term as Representative from this con-
gretional district. Mr.. Donovan not
only has a clean record but he is in
every sense of the word man of the
people. In each official capacity he
has proven his interest In the welfare
of every constituent, and with cons
tant widening of his circle of acquain-
tance he has added to his list of friends
and admirers, Mr.. Donovan Is in
every way eminently fitted for the du-
ties of Governor. With him as the
candidate for that position his party
would be assured of the undivided
support of business men, agricultural
lists and laborers all of whom he has
represented In the state legislature and
national house with complete salts
faction. Not only is he an excellent
mixer, but he, is an astute and saga
cious campaigner who would carry
the Democratic banner to victory at
the head of the column. For Governor,
it gives us pleasure to announce the
name Of Hon. d. d. Donovan, of Henry
county.
And in the event of Mr.. Donovan's
nomination, his successorship to Gov.
Mckinley is certainty.

that Representative Meyers vote

the fact that he did not thoroughly

competent to discharge his duties as
the past two years have attested. With

has never been in better hands.
