One of the Greatest.
Chicago Record.

Chicago Record.
1t was a gallant advocacy Of the
claims Of Ohio as the leader among
the states that Governor Mckinley
made in his address at the dinner
Tuesday night.
"Ohio," said the governor, para
phrasing the justly samed Govern
or Pericles, of Athens, Greece,
''Ohio among her contemporaries is
superior to all" This is a sweeping
assertion and the people OF the
great state of Illinois and those Of
the great states of Indiana, Iowa
and many more--will be likely to
ask the governor to make n or
two exceptions. Yet it is true that
"among her contemporaries" Ohio
is one Of the greatest, best and most
prosperous Of states. Her schools
are excellent, her people admirable
citizens and her broad acres bear
the fruits Of prosperity and honest
toll. AS a producer Of presidents
she must be admitted to be unsur-
paSsable.

He Never Battles.

New York Special
AT an uptown hotel the other
day "a rich man from Providence
was refused a room without an eX-
PLANTATION, and with a strong hint
never to register there again. This
man has made himself unpleasant
Iy conspicuous for the last % years
by refusing to battle, on the ground
that it was unhealthy. When he
goes on a journey the only change
he makes in his toilet is TO put on
a pair of gray cotton gloves. He
has no family, and occupies a
house by himself, cooking his own
meals. His relatives forbear to
quarrel with him because they
don't want to be cut out of his will.

Possibly there may be a few
heavy tax payers who will oppose
the proposition for the reason
that they don't believe in educat-
