SAVED HIS PARTY.
George 3. Cox Did.

Our esteemed Brother, of the Vim.
ton Record still keeps up his sheet
lightning adultation of George B.
Cox. In his last issue he, like the
political idol, he worships, hangs out
Will O. the Wisp lanters, inviting us
to follow in line of discussion that
is about as irrelevant to the issue as
the question, "what will you do when
the bogie man comes" He blazes
out on the next Senatorship, on the
fourth term of Grandfathers Hat, and
scatters his eloquence like fork light
ming all over the dark back. ground
of his party, hitting nothing but only
displaying the immense and horrid
profile ofthe Boss Gangster of the cor
rupt political Ring of Cincinnati.
This important fact however, amid
all rumbling in the far off clouds, is
presented to our consideration: Geo,
B. Cox saved the Republican party
in 1892"
This is positive, definite and only,
of all the matter heretofore presented
deserves consideration. sCox Saved
The Party"
1t is told us in the old books that a
flock of geese once saved Rome. The
geese cackled and walked the sleeping
sentinels, entrusted with guarding
the gates, in time to save the city
from the assau!ting enemy.
Did George B. Cox, of Cincinnati,
like the geese on the Tiber, cackle
and waken the Sleeping Slums Of
Cincinnati, while the honest men of the
party in the state, in your District,
if you please, disregarded his notes OF
alarm, and slept on. The Vinton
Record of current date, if we mistake
not, had mention of the fact that the
Democracy entered the camp and
captured your party, and put the pen
nant of Democratic Elector over
your fallen champion. Did George
B. Cox only operate in the hiding
places of Cincinnati, and win the vic
tory, while you and the old veterans
slept your fate away. Bro. Barleon,
it is an awful "give away to you and
and to your party to say that you lost
the state, but that in the purliens OF
Cincinnati, horde of Lies Misera-
bles," reused by only such processes
as is known to the Boss gangster,
your party was saved from defeat.
But since this now is made the
issue, the point on which this discuss
ion turns, since Cox must be glorifed
Tor saving your party, pray tell us
how he saved it! Where was your
able committee, chairmaned by the
gallant Col Pursell? Where were
you and why was your eloquent edi-
torials in the Record unheard and un-
headed? Where were all of you men
of high degree when Cox saved your
party, and how did he save it?
Answer US this, and then let us
have war.

JOHN B. PEAsLEE.
John B. Peasiee. candidate for
Lieutenant Governor and resident
of Cincinnati, Hamilton county, was
at one time citizen of Columbus.
When In this city he was prominent
ly connected with the public schools,
being principal of the old North
German School on Long street in
1864. His services in this 9 city are
we'll remembered by the older inhab-
itants who were familiar with our pub
lie schools daring war times. Mr..
Peaslee went from Columbus to Gin
cinnatl, where he accepted better
position in the Queen City's schools.
He was Superintendent of the Ciu-
cinnati Public Schools for about 10
years, during which time he began to
interest himself in politics. After
severing his connection with the pub
lie schools, he ran for Clerk OF the
Courts Of Hamilton county against
George Cox, defeating him and after
ward on his second candidacy for re-
election, defeating Mr.. Eggleston.
He finished the labors of this Office
only few weeks ago. Mr. Peaslee
was originally an Eastern man, being
from New England. He was not in
the convention hall at the time of his
nomination, and expressed consider
able surprise and astonishmept when
apprised Of the fact. He claimed he
was no a candidate for nomination.
WILLIAM =. MOONEY.
The nominee for Supreme Judge is
William 7. Mooney, resident of st.
Mary's, Auglaize county. Mr..
Mooney is young man, being only
81 years of age, but he is regarded by
the bar of the northern part Of the
State as phenomenon in his pro-
fession. Heis graduate of the Ada,
O., Normal School and of the Gin
cinnati Law School. At the latter he
took the Dexter prize in both his jun

Circuit Bench. He was then re-
elected as Common Pleas Judge and

ing been Judge for about three
years all told. Senator Brice has
made prediction that Mr. Mooney, if
elected, to the Supreme bench, would
be recognized inside of five years as
one of the Judges of the first order.

The DEVILS Pump.

One Of the greatest combinations of
natural and artificial curiOsities on the
coast OF California is called the DEVILS
pump. The pholas, or shell miners,
species OF mollusk which excavate i'm
mense cayerns in the very hardest
stone, have tunneled the entire coast in
the vicinity of the pump. Water rushes
into these caverns with each successive
tide flow, and, in this particular case,
finds vent through cylindrical open
ing some distance from the waters
edge. 1t Is estimated that this hole.
which connects with the sea cavern, Is
- to 100 feet In depth. Every time
the tide rushes into the cavern be-
meath the pump" throws water to the
height Of q full 100 feet above the
mouth Of the opening. The Indians
formerly called 1t by name which
signified "fairy water gum" but the
irreverent white men have given it the
title Of the devils pump" and by that
name 1t will probably be known to
future generations.
