We want to say that these con-
troversles are only party policy.
We believe James T.. Campbell aud
Mr.. Green are both for the most
part Democrats, but there. are in
all parties diversity of opinion
rs to what the policy Of that party
should be. These men are and
have been unmistakably for gold
standard policy for the Democratic
party, and have laid dormant since
their policy was crushed by the
people i'm the Chicago Convention
in 1896. Lately they have begun
to put forth their stealthy efforts to
again make a contest in the Con-
vention of 1900, and perhaps over
throw the silver Democrats and
turn down Mr.. Bryan AS the nom
inee. This is the plan aud we are
warning, by advise of the National
Committee, all democrats that are
loyal to the cause Of silver to be
alert against the possibility of the
supremacy Of those against the sl!-
yer policy of our party. This is
not a contest Of factions in local
Democracy and has no bearing on
local politics, but it is the laying OF
the foundation of Democracy for
1900 at the National Convention,
and the hope OF Bryan's triumph
and the policy of Mr.. Campbell
relegated to the arms Of the mill
ionare Republicans where it be-
longs.
We have a duty to perform in
the upholding of Bryan democracy
and as best we can will be on the
alert for Its enemies in either party
and warn the silver democrats
against them.

Dog Not Nj ad.

/ want TO thas publicly refute
the article in the journal of last
week saying that the pet dog of
my children was mad. The little
dog followed our baby buggy down
town and when my wife took the
badly and went into the doctors
Office and shut the dog out, it be-
came frightened in their absence
and made considerable noise. Then
some boys abused it and drove it
under house. There was nothing
whatever the matter with the dog
except badly scared, and it was
shame and inhuman to kill it. III
my boy could have rescued the dog
from the brutal crowd that was
trying to kill it, it would have soon
been quiet and alright. l want to
say that the killing ofthat dog was
an outrage, and the Journal ought
to get the straight of things before
they tell so much.

HOnOrs to Dewey.

WASHINGTON, July 30.-President
Mckinley will give reception to Ad-
miral Dewey at the White House
when the latter arrives in Washing
ton. At first he was in doubt
whether reception or dinner
would be more appropriate, but the
former is likely to be decided on for
the reason that it would be more pop
ular in character and would grant to
a multitude of people an opportunity
to meet the naval hero and shake
hands with him.
The management of the reception
would be very simple and will differ
in no important respects from regular
affairs of that character at the White
House, except that the Admiral will
occupy place in the line of the re-
ceiving party, the President coming
first, Mrs. Mckinley next and then
the Admiral, the introduction being
made as usual by Colonel Bingham.
Later on the expectation is that a
dinner also will be given to the Ad-
miral at the White House, and this,
following the custom at state dinners,
will be festivity of some elaborate
ness. The Vice President and Mrs.
Hobart, members of the Cabinet and
their wives and some others will be
invited.
For this occasion the guest will as
semble in the East Room, and when
dinner is ready Admiral Dewey will
escort Mrs. Mckinley into the din
ing room, the President following
with the wife of Secretary Hay. AS
the guest of honor, the Admiral will
sit at the right hard of Mrs. McKin-
ley, the President being directly op-
posIte to his wife. Between the
President and Mrs. Mckinley will
stand an elaborate work of art in
flowers prepared by the White House
gardener, representing man of war,
the cruiser Olympia, probably, while
down the middle of the long table
will extend the wonderful mirror
framed in gold, imported by Dolly
Madison, bordered by bank of bios
SONS and smilaX, so as to make it re g..

Washington very soon after reaching
New York.

Mr.. Green for their votes in my life

in which he commanded an army.
OF course, every school boy knows
that the Constitution makes the
President commander-in-chie of the
U. S. army and navy, but that auth
orlty has usually only been exercise
to direct general policy, leaving
military operations to be directed by
trained soldiers. Perhaps Mr.. Nc
Kinley intends giving the country an
Innovation by actually assuming
command of the army and navy.
The newspaper censorship of Gen.
Otis cannot be duplicated in this
country, but perhaps Mr.. Mckinley
intended to show his sympathy for
the method when he ordered that no
newspaper men should be allowed in
the special train which carried him
and his party from Washington TO
the shore of Lake Champlain, where
he will remain for an indefinite per-
iod. This is the first time that any
President has objected to being ac-
companied by newspaper men, when
going on pleasure trip.
Before leaving Washington, Mr..
Mckinley made positive promise
to Gen. Garcia that as soon as the
] Cuban Census was completed he
would issue the necessary orders for
the holding of municipal elections
all over the island, preparatory to
the establishment of independent
| home rule.

TO tho Editor of the OHIO DEMO-
CRAT, Dear Sir:--I see in the last is
sue of the Hooking Sentinel an infer
ence that j. b. Dollison had a deal
with me for patronage, for which he
would throw his influence for me and
against my opponent, Mr.. Canty in
the Spring Election year ago. I
want to brand that inference as ma
liciously false. Some people may be
in dirty politics and imagine others
likewise engaged but / want to deny
any such tradings of my patronage
for votes or influence. / have placed
my clerks patronage where my COM
mittee have directed and Mr.. Green
received as much as Mr.. Dollison.
Might it net be that IDEAL" could
be howled at him as well as at Mr..
Dollison. 1t is i mmaterial to me
what Mr.. Green calls Mr.. Dollison
in his paper or what they may fight
about, but / insist thatneither accuse
me of any trading of patronage for
votes or any other dirty work in poll

A Republican Scheme.

We will give the, Republican
managers in Logan ere dit for being
pretty smoothe articles. They have
recognized in the OHIO DEMOCRAT
their most formidable foe, and they
have tried every way to get rid of
us or get us off the track from fight
ing them. Last year some of the
most bitter fellows tried to buy up
mortgage paper against us so they
could foreclOse and break us up.
They failed in that. Later and Of
ten they have tried to buy us out to
get rid of US, offering us fabulous
prices, but we merely smiled at
their discomficture and put our
price of subscription down to soc
peryear and almost doubled our list
so we could tell more people about
them. They want to make the
fight of their life this year, and the
first thing to do was to try to get
the DEMOCRAT Interested in some
thing else 50 we would let them
alone. So they got their most
agreeable ally, the Hooking Senti-
mel, to jump onto us and try to pull
us into II long winded fight with it,
thus string up trouble in the
Democratic party and principly let
ting them alone in their glory. But,
boys, we are two smart for you
You can not arrest our attention
that way. We will go blowing
right ahead, digging up their rot
tenness in the court house and make
it generally hot for them until the
polls are closed in November
Their ally will draw us into no
controversy in the Democratic
party.
In this issue as final for the pres
ent we will say in answer to Mr..
Green's accusation that we did not
support Mr.. John Canty for City
Clerk, that we did support him
with all the energy of our paper,
and voted for him. Mr. j. l.. Martin
gives his statement of the facts
elsewhere in this paper. After No
vember 2ud next we are willing to
open up any controversy Mr.. Green
may invite. We will discuss and
furnish proof of his having sold ou1
the Democratic party to Cart Webb
for his commissioners report as
every body knows; that he offered
to sell out his party to VIII Keynes
against Dan Wright for Sheriff;
that he sold out his party against
Noah Swartz for City Clerk; that
he sold out his Democratic honor
against Dennis Morarity for mail
weigher on the rail road, that he
attempted to sell his party to Jesse
Williams last year that he attempt
ed to sell out his party to Bill
Ryan for his four years sheriff pat
ronage; that he has standing offer
of his party to Postmaster Vickers
for any old thing Vickers wants to
give him for it. All these thinAs,
we say, we may discuss after no
vember 2nd next, but at present we
are so busy fighting Republicans
that we have not the space to apply
to Mr. Green. Please excuse us Mr..
Green from discussing these bits
of infdelity, during the campaign.
We are willing to take them up
afterwards and air them thorough
ly, but you can smear all over US
now, and we will keep right on
lighting Republicans.

A Difference of Policy.

On the first day of July the OHIO
DEMOCRAT received letter from
the National Bryan League saying
that as this paper was one among
the first in Ohio to advocate silver
and had ardently fought the battles
of the cause before and during the
campaign of 1896, that it had been
placed on the list of Ohio news.

porters of Bryan and his cause that
could be depended upon to watch
the enemy and guard against any
treachery that might be brewing,
Bryan Silver ca use in the Demo-
cratic party we've seeking to con-
troll the next national convention
as they had tried to do in 1896, and
that it was the duty of every Bryan
Democrat to be on the alert for any
that might be in each community
endeavoring to lay plans for the
destruction Of the platform Of 1896
The letter advised authoritively
against the operations of James +.
Campbell, Paul Sorg, Tom johnson
and others, as being leaders in the
cause of the Eastern Gold Demo-
Gratis, looking to the overthrow OF
the Silver Platform in the next ma
tiOnal convention as they endeavor-
ed to do in 1896.
We sought 10 our issue of July
goth to warn all Bryan Democrats
against the possible trickery OF
such men, and incidently we
thought our article of warning
might possible bring out the snake.

bait was swallowed hook and all
Mr.. Green in the Sentine of last
week shows his colors in unmis-
taxable glow. He jumps onto us in
terrible TRADE for our censure of
Jim Campbell, and defends him to
the letter. Says Campbell is the
greatest Democrat that the Hook
ing people know. That he is the
acme of Democracy, and loved by
US as Democrat more than any
man can conceive; that Campbell
owns Hooking County body and
soul, Notwithstanding he lost
Hooking in 1895 by 1914 votes.)
We feel very satisfied in our en-
deavors to fulfill the trust confided
in us by the National Committee
to ferrit out any so called Demo
Gratis that are assisting Campbell
In his plans to overthrow the Bryan
Democracy in 1900. We thought
the best way to discover his follow
ing was TO assail his policy and
personality, and those who rush to
his defense must certainly be with
him in his plans. Our scheme
worked to perfection and Green
comes out in glowing terms on the
side of Campbell, Sorg & Co., for
the overthrow Of Bryan in 1900.
This is what the Bryan people
want to find out and we mailed a
marked copy of Mr.. Green's paper
to the National Committee, that
they may keep posted on the allies
of Campbell in his move against
the silver democracy.

Inquiry at the Clarendon hotel

Bernard has only secured for his
use, an ordinary off the main din
ing room and Immediately at the
top of the stairway leading from
the Office to the first floor, upon
which the various headquarters
are to be located. When he en-
gagged the apartment he said that
he desired it for himself.
Adjacent to and Immediately ad-
joining the room secured by Mr..
Bernard are situated the head
quarters of ex- Mayor Rice, of Can
ton. Mr.. Rice was among the very
first to secure his base of operations,
and in consequence is advantage
ously located right near the elevat-
or opening. The dashing young
Cantoniap is said to have stated /:
"Whatever the outlook l am IN it
to stay until the finish"
Next to ex-Mayor Rice are 10.
Gated the headquarters the refusal
of which was given to General
Sherwood, of Toledo. These
quarters consist of a large room
opening out upon Fourth street
side of the hotel and smaller room
for sleeping apartment directly
across the hall. 1t will thus be
observed, that, despite the rumors
to the contrary, that General Sher-
wood has fully concluded to enter
the race, and has gone so far as to
look 20 obtaining headquarters.
Another thing that strengthens
the belief that John G. Welty has
concluded to enter the gubernator-
ial sweepstakes lies in the fact that
he too has secured headquarters

Farley's favorite will occupy a
large room which opens out upon
the corner of Fourth and Main

Alderman Bennighoff said that the
council desires to handle the water
company with kid gloves, as it saw the
necessity Of so doing, ssbut the company
should give the city chance to figure
OH the plant at reasonable price. He
further stated that Mr.. Rowley ought
to be able to tell what machinery it
takes to run the water works system.
Mr.. Rowley asked him if he had ever
been down at the power house. to
which Alderman Bennighoff answered
"no," saying that if he did 20 down
the plant would depreciate in value in
his opinion. Mr.. Rowley seemed to
think the counci! was able to decide on
what was needed to run the water
works plant, as he stated several times
during his talk that the council should
60 down and look over the plant.
Alderman Clement asked what price
the company wanted for the pipes,
machinery to pump water and also
what they wanted for the unexpired
term of the franchise, but Mr.. Rowley
| refused to state any price, saying that
he was not authorized to do SO by the
company; that he was merely an agent.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Rowley's
talk the council decided to continue the
matter until the former should have
time to receive word from his company
regarding the probable cost of the
plant. This may be month, six
months, a year or even seven years, as
it is evident that the comany does not
want to sell, although Mr.. Rowley said
that he thought Mr.. Belknap, who owns
little over half the stock, would be
willing to sell if he could get fair
price. Mr.. Rowley said he would try
to get the company to fix a price on the
plant. and would inform the council
as soon as it did So.
