CAUSE AND EFFECT,

The Democratic party gained control
of the executive and legislative branch
es Of the national government in March,
1893. Immediately thereafter the coun-
try was plunged into the greatest panic
in her history, causing loss and dis
aster to almost every citizen. By the
voice of the people, as expressed at the
ballot box in November of last year,
the Republican party gained control of
the government In March, 1897 Con-
sress was at once convened, and In
July the Wilson tariff bill was repealed
and the new Dingley tariff law went
into effect. Immediately, and all over
the country, signs of returning pros
perity began to show themselves, and
even now In all sections Of the country
and in all classes OF business gloom
is disappearing and hope has taken the
place Of despair.
This simple statement of facts shows
the cause of the sea of trouble we have
passed through and what has revived
all our industries and is causing the
sun Of prosperity to shine upon the
country. The advent of the Democratic
party to power caused ruin and devas
tstion; with its dismissal from Office
and the return OF the Republican party
hope is revived in the breasts Of all
and we enter upon new era Of pros
perity.

THE WOOL TARIFF.
The Great Increase 1t Has Caused In the
Prices of Sheep.

The Great Increase 1t Has Caused In the
Prices of Sheep.
Some OF the flock owners OF Ohio,
having faith in the eternity OF Repub-
lican principles, clung to their sheep
even after the passage Of the Demo-
cratic tariff act seemingly had given
death blow to that industry They be-
lieved that with the certain return OF
the Republicans to power the tariff on
wool would be restored and that then
their focks again would become prof
liable investment. Others, and by far
the larger part, however, sold their
sheep for what they could get, and in
many instances that meant less than
the ordinary price Of mutton.
More than one fiocil Of fine wool ami
manls brought less In the open market
than it should have realized for its
owner had the sheep been taken to the
butchers shambles. One such instance
may be seen by the report, in the files
Ou ulS OulO vi lhO
signee's sale of the estate of Thomas G..
McElnavy, a Jefferson county farmer
who had given particular attention to
sheep-husbandry. The sale took place
on the Sth of October, 1894, and the
sheep sold we're all fine black-top me-
rinos. Forty ewes sold for So cents
each, 30 lambs for 20 cents each, and
one registered buck for so cents. Other
lots chosen from the flock sold at SINH
lar prices, and all 1t must be remem-
bered, were fine merino sheep.
Secretary Miller of the state board oi
agriculture is authority for the state
ment that today ewes of the same grade
are worth SO to 81 each, lambs 81 tc
$3.50, and registered bucks from Sis tC
$25. A few days ago the Insurance as
sociation of Medina county made an al
lowance of 50 each for common breed
lambs.
This is what the Republicans have
accomplished by restoration Of tht
tariff on wool.

WHAT TO DO.

There is comfort in the knowledge
SO often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fultills every wishffin relieving pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passag-
es 1t corrects inability to hold urine
and scalding pain in passing it, or
bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that un-
pleasant necessity of being compelled
to get up many times during the night
to urinate. The mild and the extraor-
dinary effect Of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
wonderful cures Of the most distress
Ing cases. If you need medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists price fifty cents and one dollar.

WHY BRYAN TALKS.

1t is of interest TO note that william
]. Bryan declined to unbottle his ora
tory for the benefit of the Democrats
of Ohio until guarantee fund of
81 500 had been raised The half OF
this sum was paid by Mr.. Bryan's great
and good friend, John R. Mclean. 1t
would appear that "The First Battle"
fought by the Boy Orator of the Platte
is to put money In his purse.

Howard Neff, Of Cincinnati, said re-
Gently that never before in the course
of his years of experience in studying
The conditions relating to the states
public institutions was such satisfac-
tory state Of AFFAIRS before the eyes OF
oil men.
While obtaining these good results
there has been no scandal to shock the
people or cause them to mistrust the
officers in charge. The Republican ad-
ministration has lacked in sensational
ISM but for that reason 1t has achieved
the best reward and has confirmed
itself in the confidence of the people,
and especially OF the taxpayers. De-
tailed information in relation to the
general assertions made can be OBJ
tanned, and every fact proven to be
such.
In its entirety THE state administra-
tion has carried out its pledges made
to the people in the GAINESVILLE plat
form. The officers who were installed
by the result of the election OF 1895
have proven themselves good servants
and have shown that each and every
one has proceeded upon the lines indi-
Gated by Governor Bushnell in his in
augural address. The state of Ohio, es
it is represented by its government,
lis really but a vast business concern
and the balance sheet that can be
shown after the proper invoice is taken
under the supervision of the people,
is the basis for the true expression OF
approval. The balance sheet this year
will show more satisfactory results than
ever before, and there is no reason to
doubt the verdict of those interested

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; sediment or settling indicates
diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre-
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that
the kidneys and bladder are out of
order.

KILLED BY FOOTBALL.
While Initiating Bigger Bows.

Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. 16.-F'rancis
Blair, seven years old, son of Lemuel
Blair, foreman of the Pennsylvania
railroad at Penn station, Westmore-
land county, died last night. Saturday
a week ago young Blair and some COM
panions found football and started
to play a make-believe game. They
had seen football played by their eld-
ers and were trying to go through the
different plays.
Young Blair seized the ball, and
while running with it, was tackled and
brought down. Then five or six older
boys jumped on him. He was seri-
ously bruised and internally hurt, and
on Thursday last was given up by the
doctors. This is the third death from
football in this section this season.
