BUCKEYE DEMOCRATS,


the Biggest Ever Seen in the state
COLUMBUS, O., June 3O-The demo-
cratic state convention here was the
most largely attended of any such oe-
casion since the civil war. AT that
time there were some mass conventions
which attracted large crowds, but no
state conventions of recent years have
eoualled the present one in attendance
While this convention was in some re-
spectsE mass meeting of free silver
fusionists, the large attendance was
partlv due to the fact that a complete
new ticket was to be nominated
and there was an unusually
large number of candidates for
each place. These candidates
had their respective troops of workers
here in addition to the delegates, ana
thev aggregated several thousand en-
thusiastic hustlers. Over LOCO OF such
shouters came from the home counties
of some of the candidates for governor
while there were many here lor uhe
candidates for minor places.

HENRY GEORGE.

The death of Henry George in New
York removes one Of the greatest in
t~ellects this country has ever pro-
duced. Few men in America have
attracted SO much attention BY the
sheer force of intellect as the author
of Progress and Poverty" He be
gan his new spaper caIeer on the
Sacramento Bee and alter editing the
Post and Ledger in San Francisco.
went to New York to find a larger
field of usefulness. After he began
writing books he became famous in
both continents and his mastery
h".iling of the economic questions
in "Poverty and Progress set the
world thinking. OF late years it has
been the habit of San Francisco edi-
tors to sneer at George; but there
was never a writer on any San Fran
cisco paper who was able to engage
successfully in a logical duel with
him.
1t was the good fortune of the
writer to be an employee of Mr..
George for several years i'll San Fran
cisco and he recalls how the man of
great heart and simple habits was be-
loved by his employees as NO other
naUSn1n ar may, -, So, E-o-o;coo o,o.
was, He never had a harsh word for
a man in the office, and he was
always striving to encourage and
assist everyone with whom he came
in contact. A bigger hearted and
more unseltlsh man ever lived and his
modesty was in keeping with his
grand intellectual attaln1nents.
One morning the %janitor entered
his editorial o and found George
asleep on the floor. He had thrown
a few newspapers down, placed some
books under his head for a pillow
and after an exhaustive nights work
gone to sleep. 1t was at the time
that Ralston committed suicide, and
the paper ran till 4 o'clock in the
morning getting extra editions.
On the sofa was a little ragged news
boy with Georges overcoat thrown
over him, He had given the tired
newsboy the sofa, and later on taken
the floor.
This act illustrated his whole life.
He always looked after others first
and left his own interests to the last.
In all the walks of life he was an
honest man. His worst enemies
neve even limited that he was any
thing else. He was the great COM
monet and friend of the people. 1t
was a mistake that he run for Mavor
OF New York, for the elect ion to such
a position could add nothing to the
luster of a name already one of the
greatest in the country. His honest
heart revolted at the %rotteness of the
Tammany ring in New York and he
sought to deliver the people from the
clutches of corruption. He died in
the heat and smoke of battle and laid
down his life in the front of the
fight.

ONE THOUSAND SHORT.

Assessor Horn Must Explain Away or
Put Up-The County Experts Submit
a RepOrt-The Shortage May BE
Reduced Exporting To De
Done.
Last Monday Experts Handy and
Ollie submitted report on the as
sessment books of 1895 and 1896.
They find that Ex.Assessor Horn has
collected $1,000 for which no account
ing has been made. There is however
an item of 1927 90 which may yet 60 to
Horns credit. This money was collect
ed under a special school tax levy
which was afterwards held invalid by
the courts. Horn claims to have re-
turned this money to the original tax
payers, but there are no vouchers or
receipts in the assessors office to indi-
cate that he ever did so. Neither does
it appear that the County Commits
sioners ever ordered that money to be
refunded to the persons from whom it
had been illegally collected. There
is no evidence on the face of the books
that Mr.. Horn Intentionally failed to
account for the money he is supposed
to be short except the significant acct
dent that every mistake in the books,
discovered by the experts, appears to
be in Horns favor. This may of course
be nothing more than coincidence.
The Commissioners granted Horn
until the regular meeting in April
the privilege of examining the
work of experts Ollie and Handy.
nnnrnun of tho
COunty's expert work, the discrepancy
win no doubt be adjusted, but if Mr..
Horns experts should diSapprOVe, no.
body knows what will happen next,
but the outlook is favorable for law
suit. This investigation has unearthed
some interesting facts. One of them is
the payment of 500 by Howard Sebree
more than is charged against him on
the assessment roll, although the tax
receipt, stub and Mr.. Sebree'S check all
agree in amount. 1t looks as though
the assessor upon that occasion collect
ed $65 more than be charged against
himself which would be $50 profit to
the assessor. Another discovery is
that many leaves have been cut out OF
the assessment roll of 1893. This is
the book Col. Hand had in Rice and
Griffith's Office. 1t would be interest
ing to know why those leaves were cut
out and who did it. Mr.. Horn appears
to be little anxious about the 1893
assessment roll and it is said has ex-
pressed himself thusly: "Good Lord,
/ don't want them overhauled" or
words very similar if not exactly the
same as those. There is a growing
public sentiment in favor of having the
assessment books of 1893 and 1894
thoroughly sifted. The commission
ers should have it done. Whatever is
worth doing at all is worth doing well.

The Mayors election proclamation
provides for the election of q police
magistrate. It Is the opinion Of some
that the law provides that the term of
prlice magistrates shall be two years.
AS Mr. Brumbaugh was elected one
year ago, his term will not expire for
upwards of year yet and no police
magistrate is to be elected at the City
election next April The Mayor should
examine the law very carefully.

IDAHO SOLDIERS HOME.
COmmandant McGinty is Chosen by the
New BOaSd.

NEW DOdSuS
The new act with reference to the
Soldiers Home, which created as a
board of management, the Governor,
Secretary of state, and Attorney Gen.
eraI, have held their first meeting, and
elected Capt. j. A. McGinty of Cald-
well. commandant. The Statesmen
SAYS: "The retention of COmmandant
McGinty by the new board is q de-
served recognition of his efficiency as
manager of the home. The board by
this action compliments him and does
credit to itself. During the brief per-
iod that Mr.. McGinty has been in
charge the expense of maintenance has
been reduced lower than anyone
thought to be possible. While mem
bers of the board have made public no
reasons for their actions in re electing
him, it is manifest that they know
good thing when they see it and do not
propose to let 1t escape. Tho purpose
of the legislature in changing the law
relative to the government of the home
was to effect saving to the state.
The new board demonstrates that it is
in full sympathy with this purpose by
cutting loose from purely partisan con-
siderations and retaining command
ant who has shown that he can run the
establishment on less money than any
body else would be likely to expend
there"

ing fact that fraud, to the extent OF
straight counterfeiting, is very rare;
the druggists of the country are too
honorable a class of men to involve
themselves in such dubious methods,
and the people are right in protecting
themselves by obtaining their msdl
cines from trustworthy dealers, and by
taking pains to have the genuineness
of their purchase placed beyond doubt
by seeing the correct, advertised name
las for instance, the full, unabbrevl
ated title, like DR.. Williams Pink Pills

up to deceive people whom an un-
scrupuious dealer thinks foolish
enough to believe such p~retence. For
tunately, DR.. Marquisee was arrested

AN E~NTRRPRIsING AGENCY.
A Few interesting Points Concerning
The Lord & Thomas Advertising
Agency Of Chicago.

The current issue of the Fourth
Estate has an excellent article concern
ing the we'll known advertising agency
of Lord 6 Thomas. The Fourth
Estate says: Enterprise permeates
the entire establishment, likewise a
perfect system which is soon evident
TO the most careless visitor.
The heads Of the firm D. NJ. Lord
and A. L. Thomas are twoo Of Chicago's
best known business men. They keep
in personal touch with the details of
their business. @. r. Erwin, Q. Fl.
Touzalin, e E. Kunkel, ". r Emery,
G D. Kendall, j. W. Campbell, j. f.
Ryan and Q. D. Bertolet, constitute
the soliciting force. They are carefully
selected and competent bringers in of
business-a most important part of the
personnel of the agency.
The order department., under P. Y.
Troup, is mathematically a marvel,
the system of handling advertisers
orders, from the fret to the last inser
tions, being perfect. Publishers know
that their relations with this depart
ment are cordial, and advertisers have
therefore realized that in so far as il ia
possible they get every advantage
which may properly be granted them.
The departments of advertisement
writing and illustrating are important
factors in this business. D. e. Moore
is the writer and j. N. Doyle the
artist.
