TAYLOR OF WOOD
Named by the Democrats for the New
Judgeship,

The Democratic judicial convention
at Kenton Tuesday names Frank Tay-
lor, of Wood county, as their nominee
for the new iudgeship in this district.
The convention was harmonious
affair throughout
The resolutions adopted contained a
clause in favor of Cuban Independence
and denounced the Indifference OF the
administration in the matter. The
resolutions also endorsed William j.
Bryan as Democratic presidential can
didate for 1900.
The convention then got down to
business, and two candidates, Fred P.
Whitley, OF Hancock. and Frank Tay-
lor, of Wood, were presented to the
convention. 1t required but a partial
ballot to decide the matter. When the
result of the ballot was called for, Han
cock cast solid 50 votes tor Whitley.
Hardin was next in order, and gave
Taylor AZ. Whitley, realizing at once
that he was defeated, jumped to his
feet and moved that the rules be sus-
pended and that Mr.. Tayler's nomina-
tion be made unanimous. 1t met gen
eral approval, went through with a
a whirl, and the convention ended

The Toledo Bee in reference to Sem
ator Schafer's bill on legal advertising
has this to say:
Senator Schafer's bill reducing the
legal advertising rate is not calculated
TO do any particular good to anybody
and will diminish the revenues of coun-
try newspapers all over the state. 1t
won't effect the Bee and city papers
generally, to amount to much, but will
cripple the country press. That is
something no democrat should seek to
do. In 1896 the great city dailies, for
financial reasons, perhaps, deserted the
cause of the people, and aided the trusts
and national banks, The country press
was true to the people and it is the
country press upon which tho people
will have to depend ia the great battles
of 1888 and 1900. TO cripple the coun.
try newspapers is TO cripple the people
There ls no general demand for any
such bill anyhow. The legal rate Is
low enough, and there has been no de-
mand from the people of this district
on any senator from this district TO re
duce it.
The Bee speaks the truth, when Il
sas there is no necessity and no de
mnnd for the proposed changes as advo
Gated by the bill. With country news
papers at 81 90 per year, there is yer!
little revenue coming in except from
the advertising department.

TENEMENT HOUSE LABOR
How the People Live and Work
in Such Places.

A reporter for a Chicago labor
journal made an investigation of tene-
house labor in New York and his
report Is OF much interest, particularly
to those who indulge in smoking cigars.
Thousands OF cigars, that are sold in
these houses and it seems almost won
derGul that people who are cleanly in
their habits, will allow themselves to
use these cigars made where the con-
ditions are such that it would be i'm
possible that the goods could be kept
clean. The reporter says:
turned my attention TO the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, and found that
that department has just completed an
inspection OF the tenement houses.
The inspector says as follows: II visited
the following tenement houses we're
cigars are being made under the most
filthy and dangerous conditions that
ever came within the scope OF my OBJ
servations, and found in many of them,
| families consisting OF father, mother
| and nine children living in two and
three small rooms. Where all of them
sleep was mystery, but that many of
them were forced to lie on the floor
seemed inevitable, for none of the
apartments that | visited had more
than two beds, and the majority OF
| them but one bed.
That this system is degrading goes
without saying. Since the social
organism suffers because its citizens,
and what is still more important, the
coming generation is exposed to and
surrounded by these conditions in
which self-respect, self-dependence,
right thinking and right living are
| impossible. In these home shops the
families that can afford three rooms,
devote Two of them to sleeping apart
ments and the other one is used for a
reception room, dining room, kitchen,
pantry and work shop combined. In
some OF them the occupants are per-
mitted to clean paper, etc., out of their
scanty earnings. The children IN these
tenement cigar shops all look
unhealthy and many of them are dis
eased, crippled, etc. The stencil that
eminates from these tenement-house
cigar shops rs soon as the door is
opened is almost unbearable, and that
the districts in the vicinity OF these
pest holes have not been swept with
cholera or small dox, is indeed mirac-
ulous.
1t would seem as if spirit OF com
mon humanity would prompt the
proprietors of these tenement-house
cigars shops to abandon this health
and moral destroying system. Hu-
manity, however, seems to have little
or nothing to do with the case. The
main and all important question with
those manufacturers seems to be, to
| get all that is in these poor wretches
| out of them.

merely informed the court that his
