THE SEMI WEEKLY OHIO DEMOCRAT FRIDAY JULY TO- 1896
nrlncln,es MOI linsaes.

One marked difference IL appnr.
ent between the conditions at Chi.
cago and those ut the st. Louis
convention. At the Republican
convention it was a battle of the
bosses. at the Democratic it is u
contest Of principles. AT st. Louis
it was whether Boss llama, or
Boss Platt, Boss Quay aud other
bosses combined against the new
boss, should win. 1t was Il person
al fight and bitter personalities
were used. 1t is not in human ma
ture to forgive and forget the abuse
and indignitics heaped upon the
defeated bosses by the organs Of
the victorious faction. Ii all that
was said of the leaders of one fac
tion by the members and newspa-
per organs of the other were true,
their proper place would be in Jail ,
or at least away from the society
of honest and honorable people.
There is no war of bosses at Chi
cago. Itl not question of boss
rule, but of financial principles. i.
is recognized on both sides that
there is honest difference of opin.
ion and the earnestness with which
each side is pressing its own views
is founded in sincerity of belief
that it is right and that the other
side is mistaken. The effort is to
convince rather than to conquer.
There is less probability of per-
soral resentment following the ac-
ton at Chicago than in the case Of
ST. Louis. The defeated will retire
from the contest regretting the re-
suit perhaps with glosmy views of
the future, but hoping for the best.
The victorious majority will have
no disposition to remember the
the minority vindictively. Believ-
ing that in the convention a great
principle was vindicated they will
use every effort to secure its tri-
umoh in the election and the effort
will be to convert those who differ
fIom them, not to abuse and insult

AS has been well known this liti.
cation has been on the docket for
the past six months, and the con-
test has been a bitter one and after
several rounds in court from month
to month, the application Of the
Trust company for the appoint

MED, and the case dismissed, it
having been shown that the Coal &
Iron company had fully paid all its
obligations to the Trust company,
including $4,000 of interest due
the first of July, 1896.
