Cincinnati Barrister and Ex- United States
District Attorney, Dead.

ards, the attorney, died at o'clock
Saturday morning at Battle Creek,
Mich. He was taken there three weeks
ago after he had been confined to his

while, but his relapse was swift and
sudden. He was unconscious from Fri

ards death adopted suitable resolu-
tions and adjourned in respect to his
memory.

OF Coal In Ohio Enormous, % shown by
the state Mine Inspectors Rsport.
COLUMBUS, O., Sept. Estate Mine
Inspector R. M. Hazeltine has fled the
annual report of his department with
Gov. Bushnell From the statistical
portion of the report the years produc-
ton of coal is given as 1888, $40 tons,
an increase over the preceding year Of
1,773,66O tons BY comparing the foot
ings of the table with those of the pre-.
ceding year it is found that the in
crease in lump coal is 1,349,231 tons; in
nut coal 113, 755 tons, and in pea and
slack 31O,674 tons.
The unusual percentage of gain in
lump coal is ascribed to the increased
use Of mining machines and the adop-
tion of improved methods in mining.
In point of production the four lead
ing counties are: jackson, 2,072, ,939
tons; Perry, 1,7S9, 1O9 tons; Athens, L.
4S5,744 tons, and Hooking, 1,4S2, All
tons. They occur in the same order as
in the report for 1894.
The counties of Athens, Hooking and
Perry, which compose the Hooking val
ley coal field, produced 4,657. 594 tons,
an increase over the year 1894 of 1885,
1893 tons, percentage of the whole out
put of the state of "a per cent. This is
a decrease Of 21-1O per cent. as COM
pared with the preceding year, of 8 7-10
per cent. as compared with 1893, and
44-lO per cent. during 1892.
OF the years production, 8, 120, ,456
tons were mined by machinery, an in
crease of 564 800 tons as compared with
1894 This output is the greatest in
the states history, and the gain has
been exceeded but once since a record
has been kept of the product arising
from this source.

1t is said is eternal vigilance. We
commned this to the people in all towns
where caucuses are yet to be held.
The Groutites are on the run; they
must be kept at it. Don't take victo-
ry for granted because you are in the
lead; it may yet be wrested from you
if you allow yourself to become indiffer-
ent. Every voter who believes that
the people and not the politicians
should name the candidate should re
lax no effort until the vote is counted
out. Attend your caucus and urge
your neighbor to go. Do this under
any and all circumstances, whether
your town is sure for Stickney or GER
tain to go for Grout. 1t is your duty
to be there and on time, too. Some
times snap caucuses are held. In many
towns the machine controls the town
committee and they have demonstrated,
heretofore, their willingness to obey
the commands OF the bigger fellows.
Attend your caucus; take your neigh
Dor with you and be sure you know
how the men you vote for for delegates
stand. Eternal vigilance is the price
of liberty.

That is what it looks like at this
writing Tuesday,. Many caucuses
were held Saturday in various sections
of the state and the trend everywhere
was in favor of Stickney, the peoples
candidate. Bennington and Windham
counties held their first caucuses on
that day and with the most gratifying
results, both carrying every town in
which vote was taken. In the for.
mer Bennington, Manchester, Dorset
and Woodford chose fifteen Stickney
delegates. In Windham Dummerston
led off on Friday with 2 Stickney del.
egates and this was followed on the
next day by Guilford 2, Jamaica 8,
Londonderry 8, Windham 2. Orange
county also held its first caucus AMI
led off by sending Stickney delegates
from its county town, Chelsea. 1t ap.
pears morally certain that Bennington,
Washington, Windsor and Wind.
ham counties will be practically
solid for the Ludlow man, while Rut.
land, Addison and Orange will give
him heavy majorities, Chittenden fol.
lowing close second. This insures a
handsome majority in the convention.

latest returns, tabulated by counties.

A True Bill of Indictment,

Josiah Grout of Derby is the candi-
date of the "ring" that has controlled
the republican party of Vermont for
years. His aspirations for the office
of governor terminated years ago and
he has been told tn t if he would be
good and help the other fellows that
bis turn would come some time. He
has been good waiter and the ma.
chine this year informs him that he is
"next." Against politics of this kind
has arisen the candidacy of w. w.
Stickney. This is the year of the rank
and file of the party as was demonstra
ted by the endorsement of Mckinley
at the recent state convention and the
handwriting on the wall looks very
much like the name of the Ludlow
candidate.-Barre Leader,
