Two Great Statesmen.

President Cleveland and his
drunken Secretary of the Treasury,
John G. Carlisle, are confronted with
the financial question, as the leaders
of the Peoples party declared they
would be, while the leaders of the
old twin parties declared they would
not be. And what do they propose
to d.? Unless all reports are at
fault, coming from the highest author
ity to which the public look for in.
formation, these statesmen are going
to propose to Congress to restore the
old wild cat State bank system of
finance. This is indeed case of
dog returning to his vomit and the
washed SOW wallowing in the mire.
The people are taking the true
measure at last of this much over,
rated man, Grover Cleveland. He is
proving himself man of platitudes
and political posing. He is attempt
ing that impossible task of serving
mammon and the people-mammon
first and the people last. His blind
disciples will surely have their eyes
opened soon.

Barn and Dairy Stock Burned.

On Saturday afternoon last the large
dairy barn of Lloyd Balderston, near
C0loFa was burned together with
twenty.three Jersey cows a calf and one
horse. A bull and five other cows were
badly injured by the fire two or three of
which will probably be dispatched to
put them out of their misery. The farm
and dairy were managed by Elwood
Balderston. A boy who assists had
turned the cows into the stables and
gone to the house for milk buckets.
When he returned he found the build
ing in flames. There was quantity
of new hay in the barn and one theory
of the fire is spontaneous combustion
from the heating Of the hay. Mr.. Raj
derston this was not possible. There
is standing theory for the burning of
barns which has become such a source
of farm loss, which is 'parlor matches"
The direct loss is placed at 81 800. The
Indirect loss SUSTAINED by the sudden
break in business in the middle of the
dairy season is serious addition to the
loss by the fire, and the tortgring death
of SO many almost household pets is
narrowing experience to their humane
owners.
The property, barn and contents
which in this instance INCLUDED the
live stock, they being in the barn, were
insured In the Farmers and Mechanics
Mutual of this county. The amount
awarded for the loss is $500.

The Same Old Wall Street Wall

The speech of Gov. Mckinley on
accepting the Ohio nomination for
governor is the same old Wall street
wall for "honest money and "pro-
lection to American labor" 1t will
not deceive any body. The laboring
men of this country are not the blind
dolts they were a few years ago.
They now fully understand the con-
temptable dishonesty that is couched
in these cant phrases. Out upon the
craven demagogues who continu3 to
pirate the old worn out insults. Let
the laboring men everywhere rebuke
with their ballots these brainless
political observation-disclosures Zri-
6une.
One might think to hear them talk
there were no "laboring men" but
toe men in factories. The farmers,
carpenters, masons. wood choppers,
ditchers are not "laboring men" to be
"protected." This cant has become
abomidable,.
