not this year then at the hands of the
next Legislature.

The export business for February
broke all records for that month and is

SENATOR Dodge, in trying to ex-

bill, said that the defeat of the bill had
been decided upon at meeting OF Sem
ators in Cincinnati, at the Cox blow
out, February 18th. So Boss Cox is
running the party in Ohio as well as in
Hamilton county. There will have to
be stop to the rule of these bosses,
and that pretty soon, or they will run
the party into the ground.

TWO TICKETS.
The Cox Republicans Nominate one
Ticket and the Democrats and
Independent Republicans
Another.

The people of Hamilton county now
have a chance to down Boss Cox, and
if they don't do so, we will conclude
they don't want to. The Cox Republi-
cans have nominated a ticket for city
offices under the new law, and the Inde-
pendent Republicans and Democrats
another. We venture that both tickets
are better than the usual run of tickets.

PENSIONS
For All Soldiers Over Sixty-five, Un-
less They Are Very Lively.

A new ruling by the pension depart
ment makes it possible for all old sol
diers over sixty-five years of age to get
a pension. The ruling is as follows:
claimants who have attained the
age of seventy-fve years are wholly
disabled for manual labor within the
meaning of the law are entitled to the
maxium ruling under the act of June
II, 1890. Claimants who have attained
the age of Is years shall be entitled to
at least the minimum rate under the act
unless the evidence disclosed an unusual
vigor and ability for labor at that age.
A declaration stating that the claim
ant is of that age is sufficient allegation
in case of that kind, even if no other
disabling clause is set forth, but complete
proof should be required, showing the
actual age of the claimant
