DR.. DoLLIsoN, Proprietor of the
new Ohio Democrat, has issued a
call for a Prohibition Convention, ad-
vertisement of which appears else
where. The Doctor is one of the old
reliable staunch Republican Prohibi-
tionists of the county, and is one of
the protesting few who votes the
ticket. The bulk of the Prohibition
lists usually conduct the campaign
abusing Democrats, and on election
day vote the Republican ticket. The
Doctor, though, votes prohibition, even
if he does own a democratic (?) paper.
He is man of principle and of busi-
ness.

THE Republican convention Sat
urday did not pass resolutions de
nouncing the course of its officials
elected last fall for giving the office,
fees, emoluments and all in one case,
and deputy ship in the other to DEM
ocrats, thus showing either inability
to fill the office Or sell out. We
suppose the convention had the good
sense to know that the least said about
this conduct of their officials, the
better for enthusiasm in the present
contest.

The Congressional
Convention.
The Nominee An Honest Honorable Man,
And An uncOmprOmising
Democrat.

The Congressional Convention in
Athens, on Saturday, was composed
of the tried and tested Democracy
of every county of the district. The
Delegates came to nominate Dem
ocrat,
The Suggestions Of designing Re
publicans to accept the Populist
nomination were dismissed with scorn.
The Delegates represented party
that for thirty years have preserved
clear integrity. They had no terms
to propose to the people, but the Dem
ocratic Platform and Democratic
Candidate.
Oar Candidate DR.. Lash is one of
the prominent business men of Athens.
He is a democrat from principle, and
in all his life, surrounded by the most
aggressive republicanism in Ohio, has
never wavered in his principles,
nor in duty to his party.
He is not an offensive partisan, howl
ing his democracy in the street cor
ners, nor in his social circles, but when
the campaignis on, when election day
comes, he is in line and on du-
ty. He will get every dem
ocra I'll C vote in t e dis tri ct
and mary complimentary votes from
Republican personal friends, and
his canvas will be one of principle,
clean manly, leaving no sores, and
making the party stronger by ex-
al ted course and character of our
chosen leader.

HARMONIOUS HARMONY.
Peryaded the Deliberations of
the Republican Convention
on Saturday.
But the Prospects of its Candi-
dates are not Of the First
Magnitude.

For more than a week the air has
been laden with much talk Of what
the Republican convention would do
and to disinterested spectator it wa;
APPARENT that there were two factions
at work, each striving for the ascend
ency, and each determined to over.
come the other before its autagonis
should become aware that the con
fiict was on.
Early on Saturday the delegates
began to arrive and the officers ot
each side were busy holding private
conferences with individual delegates
but no information could be CLEANED
as to the final acts Of the great pow
WOW.
True, it was early asserted that
Joshua Jackson, who was prominen
candidate for Treasurer, was shelved
and.his name would not be before the
convention.
Mr.. Jackson has been a resident Of
the county for at least forty years
and has been republican ever since i
was possible.
His loyalty to his party has neve.
been called in question and his honest,
as man has never been doubted.
Mr.. jackson, however is possessed
of lands and other property, and pay
taxes and this soft of man is no
considered very eligible for Office
among the Republicans Of Ware
township and he was kindly but firmly
asked to stand aside, and he did SO ii
the interest ofharmony.
The Convention, after the town
ship caucuses, was called to order by
Hon. L. Eggleston of Starr, and l.
d. Vickers was chosen Chairman anc
U. Randall, of Starr Secretary.
Mr.. Xickers excused himself from
making aspeech which excuse the
convention accepted with apparent
gladness.
The convention then INDUCED il
some slush over the candidacy o
Judge Bright and endorsed him
which endorsement seems rather
perfunctory matter.
After the slush had been applied to
Judge Bright, a committee on reso!u-
tions was appointed composed of VIM
Stone, L. Eggleston, F. NJ. Mckay
F. S. PurselI and DR.. Allen.
Mckay and Pursell were charged
with the duty of drafting the resolu
i tions and they have been in close con-
! ference over them ever since.
Nominations for Treasurer, being
demanded, the following names were
presented.
George Gill, of Benton, Lew
Wolfe, of Green, Henry l.. Wood
worth, of Ward.
On tbe third ballot the friends of
Lewis Wolfe declare that he was NOM

No Platform.

The Republican Convention last
Saturday refused to adopt a platform
of principles.
The candidates nominated 90 be-
fore the people asking for Office be-
cause a Returning Board in Logan
designated them as the proper spoils-
men Of this occasion.
The Republicans of this county are
asked to support men who are not
pledged to the Republican state plat
form: who have not endorsed the
action of Senator Sherman and Gen
eral Grosvenor: who have not rendered
even word of compliment to their
sheriff who besides being a courteous
gentleman, is most faithful official
and credit to his party and to our
county.
The Convention seemed bent only
on spoils, and platforms ofprinciples
are not in the campaign. Of course
we did not. expect the Convention to
endorse the Republican Legislature
and its corrupt legislation and its
salary grab: we didn't expect an en-
dorsement of Mckinley and his peni-
tensiary management and asylum
scandals and military operations dur
ing the strike, but We did expect that
Harrison would have been endorsed,
that the nomination of Gen Grosvenor
would have been ratified, and the
course of Representative Rochester
approved.
