a Card.

a card of thanks to my Democratic
friends in Hooking County.
take this method in thanking my
friends and feel sincerely grateful to
my democratic friends for their lib
eral support in my behalf, in my re-
cent contest for denomination.
AS every one knows have always
been a democrat, and advocated the
cruse of democracy even ignoring
the dictates of friends in matters of
appointments, ETC., to my own finan-
cial loss for party sake, and the thing
to do now is to clasp hands with op-
position across the chasm and on the
day of election next November if
spared, my friends VIII find me at
the polls along with them voting the
democratic ticket. Again thanking
my friends who supported me, and
hoping to be able some day in the
fuaure to return the favor.
remain yours for Democracy.

THE Journal-Gazette has started
in this year again with bolt of
lies which so crippled its usefulness
as newspaper in the past. 1t will
lie about candidates all during the
campaign, but honest democrats
will pay no attention to its infam-
GUS slander. Its editor is a com
munist with his church and pens
malicious falsehoods in his paper,
His conscience is as good as new,
he never has used it.

Col. Kilbourne in 1903.

In 1893 Mr.. Snow, manager Of the
Consolidated Implement company,
of Salt Lake City, wrote to Col.
James Kilbourne, of Columbus, ask
ing for his views on the then existing
financial deprt ssion. Col. Kill
bourne answered at length, and his
letter, coming as it did from lead
ing successful business man, was
published all over the country, In
this letter, too long to quote entire,
he said:
"Carful study of the question years
ago convinced lie that the greatest
evil ever done this country was
through the demonetization of silver,
ana that the prosperity we should
have can never be realized until sill
yer is restored to its old position.
"The present condition of so many
business men dependent upon the
banks, makes timid and silent many
who do not favor a single standard {;
but | hope there will be found of our
congressman sufficient number,
courageous and patriotic, to stem the
tide now bearing us toward contrac-
tion, continuous hard times and
monetary combinations"
Seven years of subsequent history
show these words to have been pro-
phetic craftsmanship. Such a man
as this should lead the battle in Ohio
against imperialism and trusts this
year, and the convention will find
him. About this there need be no
doubt Fremont Messenger.

AN IMPORTANT FACT.

There is still another fact of impor-
tance regarding these great combina-
tions IL he considered 1t may have
a most important bearing on their fu-
ture.
With every consolidation the nomi-
nal capital of the new company ex-
ceeds the aggregate capitalism of the
concerns before consolidation. In n
large proportion of instances the orig
inal corporations had already watered
their stocks. The excess of the cap-
italization of the combine over the
capitalization of it's component compan-
les represents little or nothing but wa
ter. But the earnings are expected
to pay good dividends on the water as
well as on the solid value In the stocks.
At first this may be done, but inevita-
bly, the time will come when 1t can
not he done without either making the
public pay more than the real value of
the article or reducing the cost of pro-
duction still further, in which case the
workmen must bear at least their full
share of the sacrifice. The outcome
may then be the collapse OF the com.
pany or the scaling down of its capi-
talization, with disaster to the inves-
tors.

THE OHIO DEMOCRAT supported
the OLD time principle of nomination
for a second term in the recent
Democratic primary, and we did it
openly and honestly, believing it to
be Democratic and right, Now
that our party have, by popular
vote, changed the plan of Office
holding we gladly accept its decis-
ion, and will fight untiringly on
this line for success. Mr.. l.. G.
Wright has been chosen by the
Democratic party as our candidate
for Clerk of Court, and he will find
us a fighter in tSe front rank on
the field of action Cor his success.

Representative Convention.

The Representative Convention of
the Hocking-Vinton district met
here Tuesday according to call, the
Vinton delegation being here in full
force. The returns from the Hook
ing primary having not all been
sent in at the time of the call of the
convention, and the Hooking dele
cation not being all known or GER
titled it was thought best to post
pone the convention until later, so
the following resolution was intro
duced by Mr.. Trimmer: "Resolved
that as the Hooking delegation has
not been certified and as the primary
votes have not been canvassed at
this date, that this convention be
post poned to the 18th day of July
at Macarthur, Ohio, and that our
district committeeman, Mr.. J. p.
Nunemaker be instructed to arrange
to reassemble this convention at that
date and place" The motion car
ried and the convention adjourned.

THE Republican Executive Com
mittee of Hooking County met at
Logan Saturday everdng and elect
ed the following officers: Chair
man, j. r. Smith; Secretary, w. w.
Keynes; Treasurer, F. M. Mckay.
The vote of Secretary stood 3 to
between Keynes and Mckay, and
the latter settled back with an air
of confidence that Chairman Jim
Smith would vote for him, but
when the chair announced Keynes
elected Mckay fell dead, figura-
lively speaking. Chairman Smith
was supposed to haye been solid
with the Mckay crowd but he
could not cast his vote for such
light weights as Mckay. When
ever they skin Keynes they must
get up very early in the morning
and stay up late at night.

WHEN THE PEOPLE GET TIRED.


In 1860 the people of the United
states numbered 31,000,000.
In 1850 Lacy numbered about 75,.
100000
In 1860 the total expenditures of the
900 f'NNN'
In 1899 the total expenditures of the
National Government are nearly S7OO-
100000.
What do these figures mean?
Why, that when the population NJ
the country has been multiplied two
and one-third times Ia tie past forty
years the expenditures of the country
have been multiplied nearly eleven
times.
That is the way the syndicates. the
trusts and the bosses are running lie

Obituary.

EMMA STUART COOP Emma Stu
ard Good was born near Bremen,
Ohio, December 27th, 1856, and de-
parted this life in the Methodist
Episcopal parsonage, Logan, Ohio,
June 14th, 1899, aged 43 years, 3
months, II days. She was united in
marriage at her home in Bremen
with N. w. Good, September 2lst,
1880, by Rev j. Rickets. Three years
after marriage her husband entered
the Theological seminary at Evans
ton, Illinois. After graduation he
served the following charges as pas
tor being greatly supported and as
sisted by his dc voted wife; Braceville
and Crete charges, Illinois, after
ward transferred to the Ohio confer
ence where he served the following
charges: Junction City, Tarlton,
Gift street Columbus, Oakwood
Chapel Columbus and Logan.
At the age of eighteen years, Sister
Good was happily converted under
the ministry of Rev. r. H. Bradricll
at Bremen, and united with the
Methodist Episcopal church. In
the communion of this church she
remained a consistant, loyal and
faithful member until called to the
fellowship of the church triumphant.
The interests of the church were
always dear to her heart, and she
found much joy in her work. She
was of quiet spirit, most prudent in
all of her relations TO society and the
church of Christ. AS far as strength
would permit she was engaged in the
work of the church and her very
presence was an inspiration to pure
thought and right living. In her
home she was cheerful and happy, a
most affectionate and devoted wife,
whose supreme joy was to make the
home place of delight.
She loved her friends, and all who
knew her might feel free to call her
their friend. Her richest adorn-
ments were the christian graces
which sparkled in brilliancy alike in
the church, the home and the social
life.
The strength of her christian faith
was tested and not found wanting
during the years of feeble health
since disease fastened itself upon her.
Obliged to lay aside much of the
work of life, she ever manifested
during this trying period, patience
and resignation in a marked degree.
She was SO consistently living for
life in both words that when the
summons came she was ready to de-
part, to be forever with the Lord.
To her sorowing husband, her
three brothers and three sisters, and
to her great company of friends she
leaves the memory of a precious life.
We confidently believe that she has
passed through the gates into the
celestial city of our God.
"Thank God for death, bright
thing with dre1ry name, we wreathe
with mournful flowers her pure, still
brow"
"There is a World above,
Where parting is unknown;
whole eternity OF Love
Formd for the good alone.
And faith behold the dying here
