Trade says:
Special inquiry has been made at all
commercial centers regarding the state OF
retail trade. Wide diversity appears In
different trades. The main facts disclosed
are: First marked Improvement within
the past month and a considerable excess
over the business done year ago, partic-
ularly In the necessarles OF life But sec
ond, IL appears that the volume OF trade
at present IS on the whole considerably
less than In a normal year, and In the
more important trades is apparently about
90 per cent. smaller than in September,
1892. Evidence OF continued Improvement
In Wholesale trade and manufacture does
not appear here is q large distribution

FARMERS and laborers should think
twice before joining with the Populist
or Peoples party movement. Let
them investigate carefully the lead
ers in this movement and they will
find that in nine-tenths of cases they
are demagogues who have left the
old parties for reasons which they do
not care to explain. They are unsafe
leaders. Look at the result when
this class of men have come into pow
erthrough Populists majorities. Look
at Kansas, Colorado and Oregon.
Bingham, Seitz and other Populist
leaders in Ohio belong in the same
class as Llewellen, Waite and Pen
noyer. The Democratic party is the
party for the people, for it is ever
mindful of the rights of the masses.
No one can better themselves by
leaving the Democratic party to join
the Populists. Democrats, cling to

The people know that Mr.. Resh has
been conducting the duties of the audi
tors office in the interests of the tax
payers, and are fully acquainted with
the facts which have brought the i'll
will of the Signal down upon his head.
1t turns out that Mr.. Russell's chief
end while he was auditor was to line
hisown pockets, which he did on every
occasion to the exclusion of the inter
ests of the people. Mr.. Resh is just
his opposite, for which thepeople give
him thanks. Mr.. Resh will keep on
in his good work to the end of his
second term, when lie will be ready
to turn over the auditors office to his
Democratic successor in much better
shape than he was given it from the
hand of Geo. Russell.

THE Mckinley tariff bill was so
framed that it tenabled the sugar trust
to realize half q cent a pound on our
entire consumption of sugar, whether
imported or produced in this country.
The Wilson tariff bill proposed du-
ty of quarter of a cent a pound on
refined sugar, all of which would have
gone to the sugar trust, and added
nothing to the public treasury. The
senate bill reduces this duty to one
eighth of cent a pound, and while
this practically goes to the trust, the
bill yields $4O,OOO,OOO to the treasury.

THE attitude of the Signal towards
Messrs. Meyers and Fitch, can have
but one meaning, and that is, the
bosses have made up the slate for the
Republican county ticket, and about
all the Republicans will have to do
when they gather in county conven-
ton will be to ratify the slate which
has been made up for them! OF course
the machinery of convention will
be put in motion, and the usual pro-
ceedings gone through with, but the
sham must and will no doubt be ap-
parent to all who will be in attend
ance. In no other party would this
state of affaiys be tolerated, but the
Republican party, true to one of its
cardinal principles-concentration
will consent to this usurpation of the
bosses and allow the thing to be done.
But it will not be allowed to pass
wholly without rebuke, for there will
be a large number of honest Republi-
cans who will give such proceedings
their condemnation at the polls when
election day comes around. Great is
the Republican boss, but the Aus
tralian ballot is greater!

THE Democratic party has redeem
ed the three principal pledges it made
the people two years ago, viz: The
repeal of the Federal election law;
the repeal of the purchasing clause OF
the Sherman silver law, and the pas
sage of tariff reform bill. Give the
good old party time and the last Wis
tage of Republican misrule will be
wiped out. The Republican party has
been legislating for monopoly and
Capitalization for so many years, that
it takes nerve and time to call a halt
and change the order of things. But
the Democratic party, the peoples
party, is equal to the task, and by
the eternal it will give legislation in
favor of the whole people.

IT is beyond dispute that the Nc.
Kinley tariff as it stands is more ia
vorable to the Sugar Trust than any
amendatory schedule which has been
submitted to Congress. The trust
was fighting to delay all action and
have the Mckinley act stand. In the
light of these facts the protectionist
cry about ''pandering to the Sugar
Trust is delightfully."- unreasonable
and impudent. 1t would be millions
of dollars in tile pocket of the Trust
and millions of dollars out of the pub
lie treasury if all tariff legislation
could be defeated.

CONGRESS has passed a bill, and
which is now a law which provides
that greenbaeks viii not be exempt
from taxation and should be returned
as other money, for greenbacks are
money. This will upset one of the
tax dodgers schemes. For years 1t
mas been the custom Of tax dodgers
having large balances in bank to ex-
change the deposit the day before
the return for taxation is made for
ereenbacks. and greenbacks not be-
ing taxed, thus avoid by a mild sort
of perjury, fair return. This abuse
of tax laws has been practiced all
over the country and the State of
Ohio has lost many thousands OF dol
lars by it.
