Good Advice.

The Washington Post, which seems
to uIelerstand conditions of the South
better than any other newspaper pub
lished north of the Potomac, says:
"The South does not and never will
pretend that it offers the negro politi-
cal domination, official control or
substantial ascendancy of any kind.
The South is frank enough to proclaim
faith that the negro represents an in
ferior race and shall not be permitted
to rule. But the colored people will be
wise to consider that the white South
erners are their real friends and SYM
pathizers. The time has come for the
negro to choose between the leader
who promises much and does nothing
for his welfare and the Southern white
who promises nothing and does much"
No truer statement of the position of
the white men of the South has been
made; no better counsel has been offer
ed to the negroes in this section. The
'leaders" of the negro have gotten
him into most of his troubles and are
responsible for mistakes which have
cost him very dearly.
We are glad to believe that N ma
jority of the negroes in the South have
learned wisdom by experience and
cheerfully accept the position which by
laws and instincts beyond the control
Of man they now hold and under exist
ing conditions must continue to, Oc-
.. cupy.

SOME FACTS,
AND FIGURES
Concerning 1.-THE Make Up of
OhiO's Next Legislature.
REYNOLDS ABOUT DECIDED ON
By Mr.. Hanna and Mr.. Dick as the Admin
istration Candidate for Speaker of
the House---No Others
Need Apply.

Yesterdays Cincinnati Enquirer is
authority for the statement that the
personal managers Of the Ohio and the
United States, Senator Hanna and Col.
Dick, have decided upon Hon. A. G..
Reynolds of Lake county, as the ad-
ministration candidate for the speaker
of the house in the coming legislature.
Mr.. Reynolds is the recognized expon-
ent of the Anti-Saloon league element
and his election for speaker is a sop
for that element to counterbalance
Caldwell, the Brewers attorney, who
will preside over the other branch of
the legislature.
The Enquirer claims the most posi-
tive information is that the selection
has been made. If it has, the Hon.
Snyder, of this county, the Hon. McCor-
mick and the Hon. Griffin, the pre-
viously announced candidates will have
to gracefully submit, for the word of
Hanna, Dick & Co. is law. In this
connection some facts and figures con-
cerning the makeup of the coming law
makers are interesting:
The seventy fourth general assembly,
which will convene Monday, Jan. 1,
1900, will be composed of 141 members
81 in the senate and 10 in the lower
house.
In the senate there are 10 Republi-
cans, II Democrats and one Indepen-
dent Republican. In the house there
are 62 Republicans and 4S Democrats.
There were only two Republicans
| and four Democrats of the last senate
| returned. In the lower house Is Re-
publican members and 16 Democratic
members were returned
The following trades and professions
are presented in the senate: Sixteen
| lawyers, real estate and insurance
agents, newspaper men, 2 merchants,
2 manufacturers, l minister, / oil
operator, l farmer, l carpenter, con-
tractor and deputy collector of GUS
| toms
In the house of representatives there
will be 30 lawyers, including law stu
dents, 25 farmers, II merchants. 6 in
surance and real estate agents,
| physicians, teachers, bankers,
newspaper men, ministers, and of the
| following callings one each: machinist
commercial traveller, student, contrac-
tor, engineer, pudler, general manager
molder, dentist clerk, furnaceman,
miner, postmaster and civil engineer.
The Republicans lost the following
counties which they carried two years
ago: Guernsey Highland, Mahoning,
Muskingum, Preble, Ross and Will
! liams. The Democrats lost the follow
ing counties which they carried two
years ago. Franklin, Hardin, Hook
! ing, Ninton, Logan, Lucas, PauIding,
| Summit and Van Vert.

MRS. ALPER SAYS
Her Husband Came Home Drunk
and Abused and Mis-
treated Her.

Sensational cries of murder, police,
help" greeted the ears of Nimisilla
street residents early Thursday morn
ing, emanating from the residence and
the vicinity of the residence of Zieg-
mont Alper, at, No. 917. A telephone
message was quickly sent to the po-
lice station and Sergeant Riblet and
Officer Smiley was detailed to make an
investigation. The officer soon returned
to the police station with Ziegmont AL
per in charge and locked him in a cell
and placed a charge of drunkenness and
disorderly conduct against him. 1t ap-
pears from the statement of Mrs. AL
per, that Ziegmont came home in an in
toXicated condition and abused her and
mistreated her in a severe manner, and
she retreated from the house to a neigh
Dor and asked for protection against the
attacks of her husband. The woman ap-
peared before the mayor during the
morning and filed an amdavit against
her hu9band.

WEEKLY BULLETIN
Issued From the Ohio Agricul-
tural Experiment Station
at Wooster.

A little more than 500 pounds of i'm
ported sugar beet seed was donated to
the Ohio Experiment Station by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture for tests in Ohio during 1899. This
seed was distributed to SO applicants
in the northern section and 60 in the
middle and southern sections.
Previous to November "a, 1899, there
have been received and analyzed at the
station 11S samples of beets grown from
this seed: of these, SO samples are
from the northern section, II from the
middle and Is from the southern.
AS in the test of 1897 and 1898, the
northern section leads with an average
of 1870 per cent sugar in the beet, and
purity of $50, while for the entire
state the sugar in the beet is 1877 per
cent and the purity coefficient S1.S.
These analyses are, for the northern
section, and the average of the entire
state, above the factory requirements of
IL per cent sugar in the beet and puri-
ty of 800. The dry mid season has ap-
parently favored this result.
The Ohio Experiment station has fur
ther been assured of limited supply
Of sugar beet seed to be imported from
Europe by the United States depart
ment of agriculture for experiments in
Ohio in 1900. In view Of the great diff
Guilty in securing a good stand of beets
in 1897 and 1898, by the late planting
that late seed distribution made neces-
sary, it has been suggested to try
planting the beets much earlier. 1t is
hoped in this manner to get the beets
started before the dashing rains and
hot sun of May and June. 1t seems to
be advisable to try planting late in
March and in April, just as soon as
the ground can be we'll worked after
fall and winter plowing and subsoiling
which should now be done. With the
sugar beet is advised to follow the
custom of onion growers and aim to Sc
cure termination before the crusting of
the soil by the rain and sun which is
liable later. 1t is not believed that
frost danger is greater with due care
than the danger Just stated for late
planting.
The Ohio Experiment station is now
ready to receive applications for sugar
beet seed intended for planting in 1900.
Application cards are mailed to grow
ers with this announcement and will be
sent to others upon postal card request
1t Is the purpose to send out the beet
seed in March, 1900. The amount sent
to any person will be limited to 12
pounds.

Experiment Station, Wooster, Ohio.

STOLE SOME SNAKES
And Two Young Strangers
Are Now Under
Arrest.

Manager Worthingham of the Gaskill
Canton Carnival company, which show
arrived in this city Tuesday night from
Atlanta, Ca, where they had been
showing, caused the arrest Wednes-
day night of Harry Wymans and Harry
Kinsella, two young men who are al
legged to have accompanied the show to
this city from the south. They were
charged with the larceny from the
tanning 1S snakes and a small poodle,
the latter of some considerable value.
The night watchman at the show head
quarters, which is in East Ninth street,
suspected the fellows of having taken
the stuff and he followed them to a sa-
loon on Saxton street, where he found
them congregated with a half dozen
suspicious looking strangers. officer
Piero was summoned and he succeeded
in arresting the men and recovering
some of the stolen property. A large
tent covering and eight figures, such as
are used by ventriloquists, were found
in their possession. Worthingham
stated that the figures probably belong
ed to Prof. German who is now showing
at Atlanta. 1t is stated that a large
number of crooks accompanied the show
here and the police will watch them
in their movements If any suspicious
can be attached to their actions.
Worthingham alleges other property
has been stolen from the headquarters
by parties who are unknown to him.
