Saturday morning Frank Harrington,
Henry Perrin, his father and boy
named Wilson all of Maumee, were
struck by lightning while driving from
Mr.. Perrin's farm. Harrington and
the senior Mr. Perrin were knocked
down in the wagon box while Henry
was thrown from the wagon and landed
in a fence corner some distance away.
The boy escaped without injury. The
team was also thrown to the ground and
stunned for short time. Mr. Harring-
ton died from his injuries on Sunday
evening, his head having been cut open
and being burned the entire length OF
his right side. The other unfortunates
have recovered and are able to be
around again.

Wherever the State convention has
or may be held, no greater effort will
be made Or greater success be achieved
than was true of the Toledo conyen-
tion. Every possible arrangement was
made for the accommodation of dele
gates and visitors and it is believed
that every person present was heartily
pleased with the result except few
delegates from Columbus who got lost
in the crowd and were finally rounded
up in the suburbs of Auburndale. To-
ledo is THE convention city of Ohio.

II anybody has an idea that Wood
county is not on the map and in very

please take notice that the Republican
State convention not only made a pro-
found bow to Wood county, but also
took off their hats to everybody who
wore Wood county smile. The
Ninth district was in kettle OF very
hot water oyer a State Central Com
mitteeman and while Lucas county was
enjoying(?) Il three cornered fight
Wood county put stal Frank
Thompson in the field and captured the
prize. Then the convention laid aside all
business to listen to the ladies McKin-

the Convention were more loudly ap-
plauded than were their songs.

Whatever may be the personal opin-
ion or wishes OF any voter in the 33d
Senatorial district, at the present time,
the simple fact remains that there is
much dissatisfaction existing in the
district, aud there is strong demand
for candidate on whom the voters of
the district can unite. Lucas county
demands either candidate of her own
or one from Wood county on whom
Lucas comfy can unite and work in
harmony, and il is believed that Wood
county should select new candidate
and present him to the convention for
nomination. Among the reasons given
for this demand it is declared that the
candidate must be known as being
thoroughly in harmony with the adj
ministration on all questions, and not
In control OF an antagonistic faction,
nor in opposition to the principles ol
Republicanism as promulgated in the
party platform regarding any of the
ssues that divided the two great par.
ties during the last campaign. In view
oil the demands made for candidate
from Wood county on whom the work
ers OF the party may harmonic an6
put up united effort against the op
position Col. A. b. Probert is an
nounced. He is clear of all entangle
ments by way of factional fealty and ii
clearly man against whom nothing
detrimental can be said. He does no
enter the field simply for the purpos,
of crushing the aspirations of others
but in response to the urgent demand
for a compromise candidate and he /
eysry ct worthy OF supp ort.

The Bloomdale Derrick, issued at
Colonel Probert's home, thus refers to
his candidacy for Senator:
"Colonel A. b. Probert announces that he will
be in the race as Wood county's candidate for
state senator, and no more worthy candidate
could be mentioned for this position. He is one
OF our most esteemed citizens, worthy of the
confidence OF the people
"IIe came to Bloomdale in the fall of 1881
when Bloomdale was but a small town, and al
all times since has devoted his time and energy
in the building up OF our beautiful little village
always taking an active part in the success o.
the entire Republican ticket in each and every
campaign. We feel that his noNination will
add strength to the ticket, and If elected, hi
conduct would be such in the senate as th'
Republican party and citizens of the entire dis
trict would not have cause TO regret.l

Senator Hanna's magnanimlty was
thoroughly demonstrated in Toledo by
his efforts to bring about compromise
on the question Of chairmanship of the
Executive Committee. The Haana
men haye control of the committee
which stands about II to in favor of
Hanna, and could easily elect Major
Dick, but the Senator prefers to sacrl-
flee his own personal feelings for the
sake of harmony and offered to COM
promise by the selection of anyone
other than Maj. Dick or Chas. Kurtz,
on whom Senator and Governor could
agree. Such a compromise will no
doubt be accepted by the Governor.

and elaborate refreshments, but pro,
vided telephone and telegraph facili.

usual telegraph and local news. The

The Declaration OF tho Independence

The Declaration of tho Independence
Saved by Woman.
In an historical article recalling the
destruction of our National capital by
the British forces in 1914, Clifford How
ard in the July Ladies' Home Journal
will show that Dolly Madison, the most
beloved and popular woman of her day,
was courageous and fearless in the face
of grave danger. In the mad stampede
from Washington, that preceded the
invasion by the British troops, Dolly
Madison was the last to seek safety in
flight, and her final act before quitting
the White House, as the enemy ad-
yanced, was to seize the Declaration o
Independence and carry it with her t'
place of safety. AS the White House
was Immediately afterward looted ant
burned by the British, Mr.. Howard
declares that but for brave Dolly Mad
lson the priceless parchment would have
been destroyed.

HAWAII AND CUBA.

The recent development in regard to
Hawaii which showed that the new ad-
ministration had been extremely prompt
with this feature of its foreign policy
has caused great satisfaction, not only
because public sentiment favors the ad-
mission of Hawaii as part of the Union,
but also because it shows that the ad-
ministration is to be trusted in other
difficult matters relative to foreign
affairs, The promptness and skill with
which the Hawaiian matter has boen
handled has shown to everybody that
the administration is not only capable
OF handling properly the Cuban ques-
tion, but can be trusted to do so. This
development has had tendency to
reduce materially the demand ior
instant action, and has produced fresh
expressions of Willingness to trust this
important matter to the judgment ol
the President.

Matters Of Importance to the
People,
WASHINGTON, June 22th, 1897.

WASHINGTON, June 22th, 1897.
Republicans are gratified to find that
the party in Ohio is likely to be abso-
lutoly harmonious and thoroughly
aroused to the Importance of action,
while the Democrats are correspond
iugly depressed by the prospects of har-
mony IN Republican ranks and dissen-
sious among their own people. The
prospect that the Republican Conven-
tion will be unanimous in it's action in
support of the nomination and election
of Mr.. Hanna to the Senate, and equally
harmonious in the matter OF State offi-
ces, has permitted attentt on to turn to
the Democratic Convention and the
prospect of dissensions in that body
The fact that leading silver managers
and organs are beginning to weaken in
their demand Tor u free silver campaign
in Ohio, and that some of them are ad-
hitting that it is likely to prove fail

THE TARIFF BILL,

THE TARIFF BILL,
Progress on the tariff bill this week
has been extremely satisfactory. In
deed, the work of the Senate on this
bill has been very satisfactory eyer
since the discussion of the bill began.
The fact that the House schedules have
in nearly all cases been restored at least
in part is proving very satisfactory, and
it is generally conceded that the bill
will get through the conference much
more promptly than was anticipated
since all the important changes made
bv the Finance Committee have been
eliminated, with the exception of the
wooden schedule, which will probably
be restored to about the House rates
when 1t is acted upon. The Ohio dele
cation is especially gratifed with the
developments with reference to this
feature of the bill, Tor they were the
first to unitedly and openly announce
their opposition to tine beer tax, the tea
tariff, the changes on pottery, wool and
sugar, and were the first also to obtain
a break in the schedules arranged by
the Finance Committee by restoration
of the House rates on pottery. This
was quickly followed by other changes,
in which the House schedules were
practically If not completely restored,
and if the wool schedules of the Ding
ley bill are restored when reached, as
it is believed they will be, the Ohio
delegation will feel that it has thor
oughly performed its duty.
THE RESPONSIBILITY OF DELAY.
1t might as we'll be understood in this
connection that whatever delay has
occurred thus far in the consideration
of the bill in the Senate is due to the
course of the Democrats IN its discus
sion. They have insisted upon discus
sing, day after day, week after week,
although the Republicans have abso-
lutely refused TO answer them, because
the answers would occupy precious time,
and might delay action. The Demo-
Gratis, however, apparently willing to
kill time and hold the bill back while
their import ting allies fill the markets
of the country with foreign goods, have
kept up the discussion unnecessarily,
apparently for the very purpose OF de-
laying the bill The Republicans haye
urged personally and in speeches in the
Senate that the delay be no longer in
sisted upon, but Chairman Jones calmly
| tells them that the bill will not be per-
mitted to pass until some time in July.
OF course the Republicans are abso-
lutely in the power of this opposition,
which has majority in the Senate, and
can only make the best of present con-
ditions, and appeal to Democrats to rec
ognize the demand of the people for
prompt action.
