GREAT UNTERRIF|ED
OHIO DEMOCRACY
Preliminary Meetings of the
State Convention.
GOLDBUGs IN EVIDENCE

The Conservatives Are Likely to Com
troll the Entire Organization-They
Are With the Mclean Men Against
the johnson Men.
COLUMBUS, O., July 9-There is an
unusually large attendance of visitors
here for the preliminary meetings of
the Democratic state convention. The
700 delegates are accompanied by large
delegations supporting different candi-
dates for the nominations for Judge
and clerk of the supreme court, attor-
ney general, state treasurer and mem
Der of the board of public works.
The nominations for governor and
lieutenant governor are the only ones in
which there is not a free-for-all race.
with many entries. But the large at
tendance is largely due to the reunion
of Democrats who have not been to-
gether in Ohio since 1893. Those who
have been called Gold Democrats" are
very largely represented, and many of
them have noJ attended their conven-
tlons III Ohio for years. Nearly all the
old leaders OF this class are here. and
tney are given places Of prominence on
the committees and i'll the organization
generally.
Conservative Policy.
While they consider the financial
question settled, they are actively co.
operating with those who are being de.
nominated the "conservatives'' in on
posing any other so-called isms that
they claim will handicap the party as il
has been handicapped by certain ALI.
ances IN the past. They are with the
Mclean men as against the johnson
men IN the proposed "new departure"
OF the latter on taxation, municipal
ownership, etc. They are bitterly op-
posed to the insular policy of the nation
al administration and to the present
state administration, and want all the
Democrats In Ohio to gather for the
purpose of securing control of the legis.
lature as we'll as of the electing of the
state ticket and to elect United States
senator.
At the conferences this morning it
was evident that the conservatives
would control the 81 congressional dis.
tr1cts this afternoon and have all the
committees which meet tonight to pre-.
pare their reports for the convention to.
morrow morning.
Some Local Fights.
There was much hustllng for mem
bers OF the committee on credentials on
account Of local fights in some counties.
notably Montgomery, Butler and Union.
The state committee and the committee
on resolutions will be easily in the
hands of the conservatives before the
district meetings are held, but there is
no friction.
Every effort seemed to have been
made for harmony by the conservatives.
but they insisted on harmony being Sc.
cured without any compromise with
what they termed as ''new ideas" ''ex.

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co only. In order to get it's beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please

nished by J. Il. Brennan, who has
made careful estimate OF the mat
ter. that system can be put in for
$25 5soeo. The cSty can bond itself
now for $4,000, or very nearly
enough, and the balance can easily
be made up. This will put in n
single main from the reservoir to
the depot and rUn,some lateral mains,
at least where there are thickly set
tied streets. IT viii provide the
reservoir and put the water into the
same, thus giving plenty of pressure
Tor the railway company.
At six per cent interest, S22, 500
worth of bonds will produce $3.50.
Allow $3.50 for ex penses, and we
have $4,000, the total yearly ex-
pense. AS the town grows a sink
ing fund can be created out of ahe
revenue. The raSIwag ,co4asysony
will give at least 81, 800 a year for
good water at the required pressure,
and the EXAMINER is certain that
the people along the line of the
mains will easily rustic a $1,000
more, and this is putting the esti-
mate very low indeed. There we
have So, 500 income TO meet the ex-
penses.
Thus would the city have an ade-
quate supply of pure water, with it's
protection against FIRE, its increase
of property rates, it's spirit of pro-
gressiyeness, and it's invitation to
the railway company to go ahead
with their improvements, as Mont
pelier is prepared to do her share,
and all this at no expense whatever
to the taxpayers. Those who use
the water Will pay the cost and the
city will very shortly have a surplus
with which to extend it's mains.
Aren't we standing in our own
light If we don't take this matter
up? The EXAMINER thinks so.
II the parties, who have asked
for franchise don't act pretty soon
let's go ahead on our own response
