RESOLUTIONS
or the Thirteenth Senatorial District

The resolution committee reported
mously adopted:
The Democrats of the Thirteenth
Senatorial District of Ohio, i'm con-
vention assembled declare:
We reafirm our allegiance to those
great principles of Democracy which
our party sespouses, and which are
the hope of the masses throughout
our country
We invite the thoughtful attention
of all voters to the record of our gov
ernor, Judson Harmon. He was
elected by the people of this common
wealth and commissioned to cleanse
the, public service. He has inaugu-
rated the work auspiciously and Is
pursuing 1t Systematically. All the
power he can summon, single-handed
and alone, he is marshalling against
the regime that has dominated affairs
so long and selhshly. The court rec
ords give mute testimony to his en-
ergy, industry and ability.
The old. corrupt that fattened at
the public crib and waxed insolent
in the enjoyment of inter
est on the peoples funds Is
broken. It's members and their hither-
to crafty hands palsied. Fear has
supplanted audacity. Self preserva-
ton is more important to them now
than the self financial gain. We ap-
peal to the people not only TO re-
elect Governor Harmon, but also to
give him Democratic associates III

The following is quoted from a pros

Mr.. Chairman, that the cotton cloth
made in South Carolina annually
would make a sheet big enough to
cover the entire face of America and
Europe and lap yer on the toes OF
Asia? Or, if all the cattle she raises
in each year were one COW. she would
browse on the tropical vegetation
along the equator, while her tail
switched icicles off the north pole. and
that her milk could float a shipload of
her butter and cheese from Charleston
to New York? Or, If all the mules we
market each year were one mule, it
would consume the entire annual corr
crop of North Carolina at n meal,
md kick the spots OFF the sun without
swelling its sides or shaking its tail?
Or, il the hogs We raise annually we're

Panama canal in three roots. without

enough to jar the c%ocoanuts off the

Do Fish Suffer-?

My observation is that they do not.
When they find themselves caught
either in a net or on a hook the law
of self-preservation gets busy and
their natural instinct leads them to
struggle and plunge in their endeav-
or to escape. If the hook hurts them.
why do they come back again and
again after it? | remember once fish
ing for ring perch when a party near
me hooked n which in it's struggles
took off his hook. In a very short
time, not to exceed three minutes, I
caught this fish with the hook fast

no doubt about it, this was the same
fish, as the smell was sticking out of
its mouth. | returned the hook to the
owner. How many times have We all

Chinese Scholar on MARRIAGE.

Sir Robert Hart, speaking OF mar

east, tells a story of a great Chinese
scholar and high official who said that
u foreign way of letting the young
people fail in love and choose and the
chinese way of first marrying and then
making acquaintance reminded him of
two kettles of water; the frst-the
foreign-was taken at the boiling point
from the fire by marriage and then
grew cooler and cooler, whereas the
second-the Chinese-was a kettle of
cold water put on the fire by wedlock.

The Life of a Nation.

Your nation may have art, poetry
and science, all the refinements of civ.
ilized life, all the comforts and safe
guards that human ingenuity can de-
wise; but if it lose this spirit of per-
sonal and local independence, it is
doomed and deserves it's doom. AS
President Cleveland has well said, it
is not the business of a government to
support its people, but of the people
to support their government; and
once to lose sight OF this vital truth is
as dangerous as to trife with some
stealthy narcotic poison. OF the two
opposite perils which have perpetually
threatened the welfare of political So

the latter is really the more to be
