And its not the sad September that's slowly

But lust that remember have come to say
"Goodbyt"
"Goodby'' the wind is wailing; 'Gooiby' the
trees complain
AS they bend down low to whisper with their
green leaves. white with rain;

lilies sigh

HOME ISSUES
AND MATTERS OF STATE CONCERN
ARE THE THINGS OF MOST
VITAL IMPORTANCE.
The Voters and Taxpayers OF
Ohio Should Discuss and I'm
derstand Them.

As long as the election franchise is
exercised it should be exercised intel
ligently and understankingly.
At the election to be held Noyem-
ber next the people, in addition to
electing their county officers, will be
called on to elect a Legislature to
make laws and a governor to see that
they are properly observed and exc
cuted.
Thus the entire election hinges on
home matters-on county matters
and State matters.
Now how are the people to vote in
telligently on home matters and is
sues2 By totally ignoring them, and
talking about things that have no sort
of relation to their real affairs?
That would be egregious and mex
cusable folly. We will grant that the
Republican leaders of the State are
anxious that there shall not be sim
gle word breathed in the public print
or on the stump concerning the pre-
sent condition of State affairs.
They are ready and anxious for the
people to talk about everything else
than those in which they are really
and vitality interested. They even
hope to win new lease of the power
which they have been abusing by
lodging the responsibility of Their
official acts. ~.
There have, been Republican
Governor and two'overwhelming Re
publican Legislatures during the past
four years, and during this time the
treasury has become practically pen
niless and an enormous deficiency has
grown up, because expenditures have
far exceeded revenues.
The people have the right to know
from their public servants the reason
for this. 1t is their right to demand
the reason. And keep on demanding
the reason until it is given.
| Not one of our public officials, from
Governor Mckinley down, will eyel
offer word in explanation, until the
people themselves compel the expla
nation.
The last Republican Legislature
Republicans to in both branches
perpetrated salary grab of the mos
astonishing character, taking $91, ,00(
out of the treasury for services never
performed nor pretended to be per
formed.
The people have the right to know
why this was done. The Republican
leaders are the ones to explain it.
1t is already foreseen and know tt
intelligent observers, that the rate O
State taxation will be doubled, O.
even more than doubled next year
Democratic Northwest and Henry County news. [volume] (Napoleon, O. [Ohio]) 1894-1905, 1895-05-02

The Republican leaders are RESPONSE
BILE for this condition OF affairs. and
the people should compel them TO go
before the public and explain the
reasons therefor, before the day OF
the election.
The people Of the whole State have
the right to know why part Of the
canal system of the State was given
away for far less than its actual value.
All these things and many other
things pertaining to state matters,
the people are entitled to hear about
from their rulers.
In local matters they are likewise
entitled to information from these
same State leaders and legislators.
Why should the people be burden
ed with 800, 900, 900 of local bonded
Indebtedness, $50, 900, 900 which was
created by the last two Legislatures
during the last four years?
Let the people demand the proper
explanations and enforce their de
mands. The Republican leaders are
the ones to do the explaining. Co

CHICAGO, April 30.-The May crop re-
port of The Prairie Farmer says:
Former promise of winter wheat has
been further lessened during the past
month. The present condition is S3.2
per cent against S5.o per cent on April /.
In states of principal production east
of the Rocky mountains the condition is
82.1, or IL per cent below the general
average. This condition indicates a to-
tai winter wheat harvest Of 344 100000
bushels. Rain is urgently needed in
some sections. With the exception OF
Texas. Ohio and Wisconsin, east of the
Mississippi, and Kansas and Nebraska
west, the change in former condition is
insignificant.
Present indications point to a decided
decrease in the spring wheat area
Marked increase contemplated in the
area of corn and oats. Pastures in need
of more moisture.

Over One Hundred Reported Dead--Prob

Over One Hundred Reported Dead--Prob-
ably Great Many More.
EPINAL, April 29.-The list of the fa-
talities caused by the breaking of the
great Bouzey dixie in the Epinal district
of the Vosges increases every hour. One
hundred and fifteen deaths have already
been reported, but only so bodies have
been recovered. 1t Is believed that the
death list wilfbe greatly in excess of the
figures above given when all the districts
are heard from. 1t is supposed that
many of the dead were swept into iso-
lated places where it will be long time
before the bodies are found.
The whole region over which the thou
sands of tons Of water swept in resist
less food is strewn with every sort OF
wreckage, and the whole country pre-
sents most desolate appearance. In
many places the early crops were swept
clean out of the ground and the losses
thus incurred will be very heavy.
The Aviere, a small narrow stream, is
is now in some places mile and a half
wide. The railway in the vicinity of
uliC ldIt1lcullSb StdLlOh was bUIA uU.
The rails and ties were swept away and
the embsnknents destroyed. Nearly
every bridge on the line Of the flood was
either destroyed or SO badly damaged
that they will have to be rebuilt.
AT Bouzey itself but one house re-
mains on the hill above the reservoir,
which is now quite empty and looks like
an immense black hole in the landscape.
The remains of the broken wall are lying
about for distance of 500 yards below
the opening.
A small pine woods which stood be-
meath the reservoir has completely disap-
peared, with the exception of two trees,
between the branches of which guam
tity of wreckage remains.
The government is fully awake to the
disaster and is doing everything possible
to relieve the suffering.
The project of the department has Wis
tied all the districts affected by the dis
aster. He has organized the employees
on the public roads and, aided by the
military, will as soon as possible restore
communication. All the municipal au-
thorities are working ceaselessly is dis.
tributing relief and seeking to bring or
der out Of tho chaos prevailing. Over
