him in the presence of Frank
Martin, that he wants to do some
thing meaner so as to forget the
lesser evil. That is the reason of
his break. That was the cause of
the effusion of filth from his hell
bridled tongue Now since this
matter of pledges has been opened
up we will give few things that
are going the rounds on the other
side. DR.. RaDnells, who has SER
we'd one term as representative OF
this district, straddled in the legis-
lature two years ago on the Clark
Local Option Bill against the sa-
looms. Now his friends, in order
to square themselves with the sa-
looms this year, are going about
saying that it was at the instance
of the Saloon League that DR..
Rannells flirted with the bill. That
the big liquor men understood it.
That it was for the purpose, that
if the bill won, Rannells for the
saloon element, having voted for
the bill could move a reconsidera-
tion at time when therepresenta-
tives were out of their seats. That
is the other eye they are winking
at the saloon men. That is the
kind of man Rannells' friends say
he is. Playing both sides against
the middle. Another thing we
want to say about Rannells to the
laborers. On Feb. 15, 1899, bill
was introduced in the Legislature
named Satfon's House Bill, to pre-
vent convict labor. That bill was
for the purpose Of legislating
against contractors hiring convicts
from the state penitentiary auth
critics and putting them out on
public works, thus robbing honest
labor from the employment. DIR
Rannells voted against that bill
with bearly enough trust hire.
lings to defeat the bill. This fact
is recited on pages 219 and 220 OF
the House Journal of Ohio. This
is Rannells record. Will you vote
for him.

"Sen'' Is Sore.

1t has been conjecture what
has come over "Sen' White in this
years campaign. He has not the
rugged, happy, confident face of
yore. He is not spending as rich
ly and literally as usual. Now,
Sen is spender for your mustache,
when it is left to him to spend.
The campaign Doodle that is left
with him goes out, and it makes a
difference in the votes, but he is
not using any this year. He is
not entrusted with it, and thusly
his down cast look. He is alledged
to have said that he would be
DANCED if a state executive COM
mitteeman is ever chosen from
Hooking county again, unless it
is Sen White.
You see Col. Sands is on the
State Executive Committee, and
he was present at headquarters
when the money for Hooking coun-
ty was dished out, and he Just
took charge Of it, and as far as
anybody has learned, he has charge
Of it yet. OF course the Colonel
can handle the money better than
Sen White. He has had expert
ence in handling money. He
handled about $1,000 as Receiver
of the Peoples Bank and handled
1t most remarkably well. He
handled it until he wore it all out.
He is now engaged in "wearing
out" the Republican campaign
funds. If the Colonel should file
report he would have down
salary, expenses and post-office box
rent to more than cover the amount
received. 1t is good thing that
he got on the executive committee
at this time. He is getting little
short. The Peoples Bank money
is gone and Col. Rempel neglected
in his will to name Col. Sands as
executor, and things were at low
ebb, and politics just came forward
at the right time. But this don't
get Sen White anything and he is
very sore.

Dirty Politics.

Murray City, o., Oct. %, 1901.
Editor OHIO DEMooRAT:-
Dear Sir Il notice in the last
paper Of the Murray City News
that it tells, at a great rate, a lot
of stuff concerning candidate
Channell talking disrespectful of
Mr.. Chatfield, and that he had
selected somebody in advance for
deputy sheriff, etc. Now, 1 was
in hopes this campaign could be
conducted on honorable lines, and
L have never heard of Mr.. Chan
nell or Mr.. Thomas saying thing
against each other or against any
newspaper, and 1 am positive that
Mr.. Channell never spoke disres-
pectful of Mir. Chatfeld. 1 have
heard him speak Of him many
times and he always spoke of Mr..
Chatfield in the kindliest and most
sympathetic terms, and 1 consider
it, as do many republicans here,
that Mr.. Chatfield has done our
party more harm than good in his
unwarranted harangue against
Mr.. Chaunell. Abuse, by our
home newspaper against our home
candidates, be they democrats or
republicans, don't do our town
any good. All the citizens / have
heard speak, brand the article as
false and as dirty politics at the
close of the campaign and it not
only hurts our town but it hurts
our party, that Mr.. Chatfield
claims to represent. know Mr..
CHANNEL and Mr.. Thomas to both
be honorable men, and have not
heard of either saying word
against the other, and it ill BELTS
the only newspaper of our town
to blast against the honor of one
because he is of opposite politics.
1 say again that that piece in the
Murray City News last week made
Mr.. Channell votes, and Mr.. Chat
field ought to be ashamed of him
self. Mr.. Channel, when marshall
Of our town, done a great deal for
the law and order Of this com.
munity, and we supported him in
his duty, and honor him for doing
his duty, and it is i'll fitting for
any citizen of our town to under
take to SANDER Mr.. Channell. /
am sorry that Mr.. Chatfield, whom
1 respect, has INDUCED in such
dirty politics.

LOGAN, o., Oct. 81, 1901.
Mr.. j. b. Dollison,
Editor ONO DEMOCRAT:
My Dear ir:-Will you kindly
publish in your issue of this week
the following:
Not until this, Thursday noon,
did become convinced that the
remarks of one Mr.. (p) Jno, #.
White, at a Republican meeting in
the Opera House, on Tuesday Oct.
goth, really called for any addi-
tional statement from me, as to
the matter Of promises
1 thought had covered fully,
in my letter to the Vinton County
Republican (Which letter you
copied last issue) my position in
that matter, in item first of said
statement, or letter, to which
item first L beg to refer readers.
But in order that che who runs
may read" / want to add this: l
have made no promises to any man
or set of men, on any measure or
set of measures that might come
before me as o member of the
legislature.
And further, if at this late date
I knew positively that by so doing
l could be elected, and not other
wise 1 should as positively decline
to do so.
To at least one representative
man of each Of the "interests'' and
"people" involved and spoken of
by Mr.. (2) Jno. F. White, l had
answered this question days ago
before the publication of my letter
to the Vinton County Republican,
in language like this, mot FOR
ANY OFFICE ON THE FACE OF THE
EARTH," would l pledge myself on
any matter which might come be.
fore me as ''law-maker," in or.
der to secure my election.
| To do SO 1 said then and say
now, would be to show myself un.
worthy of being called Represen.
tative of (all) the people, and
would prevent an honest man in
my Judgment f'om taking the oath
Of office-binding man as such
oath does to truly and faithfully
represent the (whole) people, only
part of whom he could be truly
said to be the representative as he
was already pledged not to repre-.
sent the rest.
This was and is and will con.
tinue to be my position, whether
it lead to victory or defeat.
l should thousand times prefer
honorable defeat to dishonest
victory!

The Campaign Closing.

This is our last issue of this
campaign and we have endeavored
to put before the people the truth
of our policies and convictions.
In local affairs we were in hopes
that the opposition would stay
clean and we believe the candidates
have made II clean canvas, but
there are always those that are
rotten in every campaign and in
all things and it is unfortunate for
the republican party and candi-
dates that such persons are in
command of your political affairs.
We have not said harsh word of
any republican candidate. They
are gentlemen as far as we know,
but unfortunately are not the
nominees of any party. They are
the nominees of Poker John White
and Bank Receiver Sands. Had
those bosses not sanctioned their
nominations they could not have
been nominated. For either of
them to be elected means that
these bloated bosses will dictate
their every official act, and boldly
run their offices for them.
1t was not our province to LET
any harsh lines mark our speaking,
even concerning unscrupulous boss
es, but when such characterles'
black guards assail clean men like
Judge Bright as traitor, and F
p. Martin as dishonest and not fl
for a decent mans vote, we LOSE
our temper. We ask the voters tt
support our candidates. They are
honest men, good men and owl
themselves.

FORMER Senator S. II. Bright
was named as chairman of the
meeting, and what he said in a
few words was enough. Hestated
that, although he had voted and
worked for the republican party
in season and out of season, for
thirty years, it seemed now that
he was called upon to defend his
good name in the party. He de-
clared again that he is a republi-
can. This was the extent of his
speech, and it was in answer to ac-
cusauions made by Poker John
White in the committee rooms that
Judge Bright and his friends are
traitors to their party. John
White did what, you sayp Poker
John White, with all the gall of a
faro dealer, positively accuses
Judge S. H. Bright of being a
traitor to the republican party.
Hear him. What do the decent
people of Logan think of such per-
fidy. Compare the two men and
then say shame, by your ballots,
on party that Poker John White
owns and controls.
The meeting closed by Grosve-
nor and Foraker making short
talks. The speech OF the after.
noon was Billy Stones.

BIG DEAL
Closed SO Far as the Hooking Valley
Is Concerned.

Jacksonville, Ohio, October 27.---
The big deal of the J. p. Morgaei
coal syndicate, which will put the
bituminous coal interests of Ohio,
West Virginia and Indiana prac-
tically into the hands of the Coal
Trust, is said to have been closed
yesterday so far as the Hooking
Valley mines desired by the syndi-
cate are concerned. An expert ac~
countant from New York, 7. G.
Williams, j. P. Morgan's special
agent, is now making thorough
examinations of financial condit-
ions and money making capacity
Of several of the large mines in the
Sunday Creek Valley, said to be
included in the general roundup
of coal mining property. The
work having been completed in the
Hooking Valley, and everything
settled to the satisfaction Of all
concerned, several of the purchas-
ing agents, buyers of the large
mining companies of the Hooking
Valley, bought their last bills
yesterday, their positions and
duties having been transferred to
other hands by the new combine.

About the Taxes.

John f. White is getting so des-
perate for fear he will be called
upon to keep Col. Sands in his old
days, that he is making q terrible
effort to elect a republican auditor
so Sands can suck at that udder a
few years, that White cannot con-
tent himself with the truth as to
taxation. He said in his last wall
at the Opera House that a demo-
cratic auditor and board Of COM
missioners raised the state equali-
cation levy on real estate, and that
he (big 1 with other republicans
and democrats went to Columbus
and had it reduced. Now the
facts are that Judge Bright as an
attorney for wealthy corporation
was the one man alone who went
to Columbus and by his eloquence
as a statesman and lawyer did get
a slight reduction.
The facts are that our board OF
commissioners and auditor kicked
on corporation coal land being
turned in on the tax duplicate at
Sc. 90 per acre when it is low at
$500. 90 and the auditor and COM
missioners raised those appraise-
ments, so the syndicate would pay
their just portion of the taxes and
relieve the farmer from paying
more than was right. Thereupon,
the syndicate, which has the re-
publican leaders by the throat
made war on the republican board
of equalization and got them tC
reduce the appralsement, but Au
ditor Bowen and the commissioners
fought so hard that they did man
J age to get $3.50, 900 more on the
tax books on coal lands in Ware
township than was first turned in
Then this pusillanimous snake
feeder Poker John White has thu
bronze countenance to go before
the people and try to make then
believe that Auditor Bowen trieC
to raise the taxes all over Hooking
county. Auditor Bowen had tn,
courage to brand the 5000 ap
praisement of coal lands as an out
rage, and by his efforts saved th'
! farmer and property owner th'
paying of $3.50, 900 tax to bear th'
expense of county and state affair."
by placing that amount on th'
books against the syndicates
Auditor Bowen has also saved tn,
small farmer and property owner
thousands Of dollars every year BY
forcing large corporations to COM
up with full appraisement on val
liable franchises and personal prop
erty. The taxpayers of thi
county are out strong for Audito
Bowen's reelection because they
know the truth of his benefits t.
them.

Voters, Watch Him.

"Snipe" Stallsmith, guard from
Hooking county at the Ohio Pen
and Poker Johns ward heeler and
Alex Sands bosom friend will be
here Sunday evening for the pur-
pose of intimidating and buying
democratic votes. We have good
authority for saying that Stall
smith didn't "hold the SACK" but
on the contrary did "raise" not
only six hundred, but "six thou
sand" dollars from under certain
tree on q certain farm in certain
locality in Franklin county, and
that he intends using the same for
the purpose of purchasing votes to
defeat the democratic party.
With Col. Sands as public rs-
ceiver, Poker John with "sure
thing" poker room and "Snipe"
Stallsmith as a "go-between" of
the Ohio convicts, their rake-off
will be immense, monstrous, and
will place them in position to
say to the laboring men, Ego lay
down." and you'll have to go.
Watch "Snipe" like a hawk.
Your only recourse is the ballot,
and if you have reason to believe
that that wont serve, shake a sack
and "Snipe" will run. We say
watch him,

The VOTERS in Hooking county
will find this year our ticket splen-
did from top to bottom. On our
county ticket we ask you to vote
for w. F. Bowen for a second term
as auditor, because he has served
efficiently his first term, and has
saved tax payers many dollars.
He deserves your support. We ask
you to vote for W. C. Channell for
sheriff, because he is most thor
oughly qualified for the place. He
has been marshal several years of
Murray City, and is a fearless,
thorough-going, whole-souled citi-
zen and will make a sheriff to be
proud Of. We ask you to vote for
Dan Hosler for commissioner, be-
cause it is right that the great
farming interests eff the west end
of Hooking county should be repre-
sented on the board. He is rare
man for the place and will make
an exceptionally good commission
err. We ask you to vote for David
Kanode for Recorder because
Dave Kanode is just the man
for the place and needs
it badly. He is very efficient in
bookkeeping, and has had a hard
time of getting along in his Grip
pied condition. We ash you to
vote for Wes Tucker for Infirmary
Directory because he served one
term and was one Of the best di-
rectors we ever had. He was on
the alert for the taxpayers inter-
ests and saved more money than
his salary twice over By refusing
to pay out of county bills that
were illegal, and the courts backed
him up. 1t is every Democrats
duty to see to it that his Demo-
cratic neighbor goes to the polls
and takes his big boys with him
Vote early.

Vicious Attack on r. p. Martin.

At the Republican meeting of
Tuesday, in Logan, one John F.
White, commonly known by the
small boy on the street as "Poker
John," felt called upon, and that
was the only way he was called
upon, to assail Mr.. F. P. Martin
our candidate for Representative,
in a speech delivered at the Opera
House. He said in substance that
Frank p. Martin had lied to the
saloon men by telling them he is
for liquor measures and when out
among the church people would
pledge them that he is for anti
saloon measures, and that Martin
is dishonest and not deserving Of
a decent mans vote. All of this
came out of the filthy, foul mouth
of John F. White, Poker John, in
q speech at RempePs Opera House
in Logan, and an hour afterwards
he was sorry he said it, because
the wrath that was poured in upon
him by his party leaders and the
idiot that he was called, made him
wonder what hornets nest he had
stirred up. If anybody ever
thought that Poker John White is
smart it has forever been eliminat-
ed from their minds, and his audi
ence sat mute with disgust. Poker
John White, whom Sill Pursell
said in the Hillican, a republican
newspaper, played poker with mig
gers every Sunday of his life; that
never attended church but three
Sundays and that was when Pur-
sell was after him and then to
prove an alibi for a short time !;
this Poker John, who is the boss
of Grosvenor's dirty work in Hook
ing county; that Governor Nash
very near relieved from Industrial
School Trusteeship for crooked
work, is the beautiful specimen Of
humanity that made that fiaunt
against Frank p. Martin. We
heard that DIR. Rannells himself
said that nobody but d-n fool
would make such a break. How
do the neignbors of Frank Martin
like such vile epithets? How do
the farmers of Hooking county
like for their Institute President
to be called "dishonest and not
worthy Of decent man s vote," by
such stripe as Poker John White.
Frank Martin-broad, honest, up
right, manly, God-fearing, good
citizen, being called "dishonest"
by low down poker player in a
niger Sunday joint. This Frank
Martin, whose life and character
are as an open book, positively de-
nies and brands the utterances Of
Poker John White as malicious
lies, that he has made no pledges
in this campaign, as letter from
him in this issue further reiterates.
Now. dear reader, let us tell you
why Poker John is mean at Frank
Martin. 1t is not because the
committee wanted him to say what
he did, or that DR.. Rannells want
ed it said, or even knew what was
coming. 1t was because that once
upon a time Poker John White
cheated Frank Martin out of some
lumber, and he feels so low-lifed
and guilty about it that he cannot
look big-hearted, honest Frank
Martin in the face, and the mean
vicious sting of his own conscience,
what thread he has left, so annoys
