Andy Hackett in his Populist is
giving Bob Walters of the Review
taffy in great big slugs. He is very
affectionate, so much SO that he is
really loving. In another column of
his paper he asserts that his printing
press is a total wreck, and that un-
less his populist friends to the mum.
Der of two or three hundred come
to his rescue with the pecessary
cash on subscription to enable him
to buy another press by the first OF
the new year, his little paper will
necessarily be compelled to put on
the golden slippers and join the
mighty caravan of pop papers that
have slipped off this mundane sphere.
So, putting this and that together.
Andy may have sinister motive in
his compound dose OF fattery of
Robert, when we consider the new
year 30 close at hand and the
wretched condition of his press. OF
course that fish worm spinal column
of Roberts, that the Populist speaks
of, will weaken when Andy strikes
the Review for a job on or about
the 1st.

surrounding this terrible affair have
been fully given to the readers oi

A Significant Departure.

With the departure of another year
when a review is made of the condi.
tion of affairs. it is only right that
some thought be given to the ply
sical body which enables everyone
to battle with life's problem and fig
ure for themselves the profit or loss
on the trial balance sheet. Though
the bank account may be large and
each ones material gain be great, it
would not be surprising if it sud-
denly dawns upon many that good
health has been greatly impoverished
by the low condition of the blood.
It is in this state that the Tactic acid
in the vital fluid attacks the 6brous
tissues, particularly the joints, max.
ing known the local manifestations
of rheumatism. Thousands of peo.
pie have found in Hoods Sarsapa-
rills the great blood purifier, a
positive and permanent cure for
rheumatism.

southwest of town, came near meet
ing with a serious accident a few
days ago. In going through stalk
field a pistol which he had buckled
about his waist was discharged by
the hammer catching on corn stalk.
The concussion exploded two more
cartridges and the three bullets
passed down the leg of his pants
grazing the skin Of his leg. 1t was
close call for the young man and
perhaps will be warning to him in
future to be more careful in handling
firearms. The better plan for boys

THE orlO CAMPAIGN.

The Democratic campaign iii Ohio
has begun tins year under the most ia

Record. In his speech to an immense
mass meeting i'll Columbus ex-Govoruor
Campbell said that he opened the cam.
paign III behalf of the Democratic party
and of that portion of the Republicans
who are with us on the issues of state
reform y The prohigate acts of the last
two Republican legislatures of Ohio
have excited the deepest Indignation
and disgust among the Republican
masses, and these feelings cannot fail 10
Influence the result of the election
Yet while the people take great inter
est in state questions national issues
oyershadow all others in the Ohio cam
paign. Though the Democrats arc sumo-
they have a decided advantage over the
Republicans on the tariff issue. While
the Republicans make their campaign
III behalf Of the Mckinley tariff, with
Governor Mckinley as their choice for
president, the Democrats have the sym
pathies of the manufacturers and work
ingmen OF the state in their demand
that the tariff under which the country
is prospecting shall not be disturbed.
The issue in Ohio is whether there shall
be continued agitation Of the ;ariT or
whether there shall bc industrial peace
