is justly proud He won the straps Of
an officer and successive promotions on
the field of battle. He is universally
popular among the toilers Of Ohio, and
all his life, unlike his Republican op-
ponent, has been feeding the working
man by giving him honorable employ

high-minded, literary, and a thorough
plebeau American, who believes i'm the

The platform is in entire harmony
with his lifelong convictions. express

too, in his treatment of his army Of
workmen.
His Republican opponent never gave
human being a days work in his
life; he has been a second-rate lawyer
for the past thirty years, and never
had a case which attracted attention
outside the precincts of the court
house. He is as inferior, intellectual
ly and physically, to Colonel Kill
bourne as he is sneaky and hypocrit-
ically in glaring contrast to the out
spoken, frank and fearless Democratic
standard-bearer, 1t would be a shock

The Old soldiers, we do not mean
the 1OO-day men, to whom Nash be-

his men are the envy of every toiler
