We VIII Celebrate.

Pursuant to call in last weeks HER
AID "A goodly number of citizens as
sembled in this office on Monday after
noon for the purpose of talking up the
matter of holding an old.time Fourth of
July celebration here on the coming
natal day.
The meeting was organized by the
election of +. +. Welch to the chair and
the placing of James Lyttle at the sec
retary's table, after which the spout
ing" began.
When the orators had concluded the
meeting took practical shape by the ap-
pOintment of committees on finance,
arrangements, dancing and music,
sports and outdoor amusements and
printing.
y subscription paper was spread and
received the signatures of nearly every
one present for liberal amounts. The
paper is still in circulation and those
who wish to see Meeker celebrate tie
coming Fourth in proper style are in
vited to put their names down for some
thing.
Every effort will be put forth to make
1t a hummer.

Thc ihroncr Mctnllic Rim.

Every committee and every cOnven-
ton OF the Democratic party in Ohio
can do valuable work toward a restOra-
tion of a wholesome condition of finance
By resolving in favor of the free aud un-
limited coinage of silver. We urge
work even nearer the fountain head
than any of these agencies. \ great
deal Of valuable effort can be made in
the back townships. Ohio is an agricul-
tural state, and no class of people is
more interested in having a sound and
plentiful circulating medium than those
engaged in farming.
Talk up the subject among yourselves,
farmers, and 90 to your convention with
a purpose to exercise an influence and
shape a policy yourselves, and not
merely to follow the path that has been
marked out for You by the political ring
very essence of our government is ac-
tive participation by the people. The
town meeting was unadulterated De
mocracy. but since communities have
come to he large, and authority has to
be delegated, no man is so humble that
he is released from the duty of citizen
ship. If the silver question is actively
pressed upon the people, and especially
upon those who do not live in aflluance,
the ultimate result will be a financial
system that will be for the benefit of the
many, and not for the few alone. No
man should be allowed to enter the
halls of the Fifty-Fourth congress Off
cially unless he mas unequtvocally stated
his views on silver and made his
pledges. Not only this, but it is the
duty of the people to nominate and elect
only those whose words are good-those
who may be relied upon to redeem their
pledges. Now is the seed time for sill
yer money. What shall the harvest be
in the next congress ?-Cincinnati En-
Quircr.
