Wcdiiosiay, April 23,' C5.
Hon. Geo. II. Pendleton has ac
4 c (jte.l an invitation to a public ban
quet in New York City next Tuesday,
tendered him as the author of the
Civil Service Reform Liw.by promi
nent ciluei.8 of all parties.
The Legislature is still grinding
away and seems in no hurry to ad
journ site die. It has taken its usual
tri weekly adjournment about once a
eek for some time past, to the great
anil unnecessary delay of public bus
iness. It is now thought the final
adjournment will not take place till
about May ist.
Probabilities of war between Eng
land and Russia are increasing, and
it is difficult to see how peacecan be
preserved unless Russia makes satis
factory apologies and reparation for
the invasion of the neutral territory
and the capture of the Afghan town
of Tcnideh. Mr. Gladstone is still
waiting to ascertain the facts, as Ihere
seems to be some dispute about
them, but meantime continues active
preparations for war.
Senator Sherman is making his bi
ennial spring visit home, to look
after his garden fences at Mansfield
and his political fences in other parts
of the State. He was invited to visit
the Legislature last week and had a
formal reception by both houses.
In the evening he had a public re
ception by the Columbus Board of
Trade and made an admirable speech
particularly defining his position on
the silver question in favor of a dol
lar intrinsically worth one hundred
cents.
Secretary Bayard is showing his
antipathy to colored citizens by re
fusing to pay Hon. Geo. V. Williams,
the new Minister to Hayti, part of his
salary before leaving this country,
according to the usual custom in
such cases. He added a gratuitous
insult to the injustice done Mr.
Williams by offering to pay him if he
would resign his commission, which
he very properly refused to do. It
is a disgraceful and petty exhibition
of race prejudice on the part of the
Secretary of State towards a colored
citizen, who is his equal in all re
spects under the constitution and the
laws, and his superior in 'courtesy
and good manners.
The special committae appointed
by Speaker Marsh to investigate the
difficulty between Allen O. Myers
and Judge Littler on the floor of the
House, a few weeks ago, consists of
five members, three Democrats and
two Republicans. It is reported
that they are miking things rather
warm for Mr. Myers, who in retalia
tion for some unsavory develop
ments concerning his part in the
Coal Oil Senatorial election, has
Maj. Ben Robison, of Cincinnati,
mmmoned before the committee, on
the charge that Robison attempted
to bribe him to vote for Senator Pen
dleton. Robison will appear before
the committee in Columbus to-day.
Gen. Grant Improving.
To the great surprise of everybody,
even of his family and physicians,
there has been a decided improve
ment in General Grant's condition
during the past week or ten days
He has suffered much less and has
been able to obtain sleep without
the use of narcotics. So great has
been his improvement that it is now
thought probable he may survive for
some weeks or even months, and
some of his more sanguine friends
really have hopes of his ultimate re
covery. Some doubts have been ex
pressed whether his disease is really
cancer, but all his physicians still
pronounce it so.
Forty-Ninth Year.
With this issue the ISews enters
upon the 49th year of its publication,
the first number of the Ohio News,
under which name the paper first ap
peared, having been issued April 21,
1837, which was 48 years ago yester
day. It will be noticed that this
volume 49, number 8, the apparent
discrepancy being explained by the
fact that 52 weeks are counted as
volume. As there are days in
a year, the surplus time in 48 years
amounts to 60 days or a little over
eight weeks.
The News has now been published
continuously for a longer period
than any other paper in the county.
Although the Gar.ttte was established
in 1818, it was entirely suspended in
1862, and so continued for nearly
year, its place being filled by the
Ilighhmi Democrat, established by
the late Col. Samuel Tike in 1863.
When he sold the paper to Malay
& Marshall, they resumed the old
name of the Car.! tit.
THE IOWA LIQUOR LAW.
The Supreme Court Declares Saloons
a Nuisance.
The Supreme Court of Iowa,
through her Chief Justice, Judge
James H. Rothrock, of Cedar Rapids,
has recently pronounced an impor
tant decision unanimously sustaining
the constitutionality of the prohibi
tory law of that State. The decision
was rendered at Council Bluffs,
March 17th, on a case appealed
from the Polk county circuit court.
The gist of the decision is that under
the laws and constitution of Iowa,
saloons or dram-shops are a public
nuisance, which can be promptly
and summarily abated by the courts,
on the application of any citizen for
an injunction. The opinion of Judge
Rothrock is able, clear and unan
swerable, and fully discusses and
meets all the legal points raised by
the opponents of the law against its
constitutionality. The point chiefly
relied on by counsel for the liquor
sellers, was that the remedy by in
junction was illegal, because it de
prived them of the right of trial by
jury, but Judge Rothrock shows that
courts of equity are not bound by
the ordinary rules of other courts in
the abatement of nuisances, and if
satisfied that the nuisance exists,
can abate it at once without the slow
and uncertain process of a jury trial.
Under this decision, if the law is as
faithfully executed by the inferior
courts, as its constitutionality is
clearly established by the authority
of the Supreme Court, the liquor
traffic in Iowa has received a blow
from which it can scarcely recover,
as it will be in the power of any citi
zen to close every dram shop, on
proof of its character to the satisfac
tion of the court, and will go far to
settle the vexed question whether
prohibition in Iowa does prohibit
Happy the people of Iowa, with
her 60,000 Republican majority
which has made possible a public
sentiment in regard to the liquor
traffic so strong and enlightened as
to demand a law recognizing public
dram shops as the moral pests and
nuisances which every good citizen
knows them to be, and whose highest
legal tribunal has the courage and
rectitude to administer the law with
out fear or favor.
In this connection it gives us
pleasure to remind our readers of
the fact, that Judge Rothrock is a
native of this county, whose reputa
tion as a jurist in the State of his
adoption, does honor to his birth
place. Many of our older readers
will remember that he was elected
Prosecuting Attorney of Highland
county about the year 1858, and was
for some time a law partner of the
late Col. W. O. Collins. He soon
after removed to Iowa, where he
rapidly rose in his profession. He
served in the war with distinction
and after his return was elected
common pleas judge, then a judge of
the Supreme Court, which position
he has filled with marked ability for
some years past.
"Ruggedly Honest" "Dave" Barrett.

a
Mr. Boyle, the Columbus corres
pondent of the Commercial Gazelle,
with a single dash of his graphic
pencil draws a portrait of our worthy
Representative, Captain 'Dave"
Barrett, which all who know him
will recognize as true to the life.
He says :
"The Republicans of Highland
county could hardly do better than
give a second term to the ruggedly
honest and quaintly humorous Cap
tain Barrett.''
And, he might have added clever,
in the broad American sense of the
word, well informed, watchful and
attentive to business an . I always vot
ing on the right side. "Dave" is not
one of your "Columbian orators"
who is always popping up to make a
speech whether there is any occa
sion for it or not and to whom By
ron's witty couplet applies :
" 'Tib pleasant sure to see oue's name iu
print
A book's n hook although there's nothing
iu't."
But when he has anything to say,
he knows how to say it in a plain,
practical, sensible way that hits the
nail square on the head and clinches
it. Yes "Dave" will do to "tie to,"
as the boys say, for a second term.
We don't know whether he wants it
or not, but if the people want him,
he is too good a soldier not to obey
orders, shoulder his gun and "march,
march away."
Hon. Geo. H. Pendleton received
the merited compliment of a public

fellow-citizens of Cincinnati, last
Friday rrght at the Gibson House.
He will leave in ashort time to enter

The Next Governorship.
Monday's Ccmmfrcial ,i.v.7 has
an interesting letter from its well in
formed Columbus correspondent "J.
11." in regard to the chances of the
various Republican candidates for
the Governorship. From a careful
survey of the field, he thinks there
is a strong probability of Judge
Forakcr's nomination, either on the
first ballot or by acclamation. The
three leading candidates seem to be
Judge Foraker, Gen. Bealty of Col
umbus, and Gen. Kennedy of Belle
fountaine, whose chances are in the
order named. He divided the dele
gations from the various courties at
follows:
Foraker Hamilton, Cuyahoga,
Montgomery, Lucas, Ashtabula,
Geauga, Lake, Mahoning, Trumbull,
Stark, Carroll, Knox, Gallia, High
land, Preble, Greene, Jefferson, Mad
ison, Washington, Athens, Meigs,
Ross, Warren, Butler, Auglaize, Pick
away, Van Wert, Taulding, Defiance,
Williams, Henry, Wood, Seneca, Wy
andot, Sandusky, Crawford, Ashland,
Summit, Medina and Brown.
Bf.atty Franklin, Perry, Guern
sey, Belmont, Noble, Morgan, Ot

Marion, Harrison, Vinton, Tuscara
was and Coshocton.
Kennedy Champaign, Licking,
Logan, Mercer, Union, Hardin, l ay
ette, Shelby, Darke, Allen and Han
cock.
Judge Nash, of Columbus, Col. J,
D. Taylor, of Cambridge, and Hon
John A. Bingham, present Minister
to Japan, are also mentioned as prob
able candidates before the convex
tion, but it is reported that Judge
Nash does not wish to be consider
ed as in the field.
Senator Sherman said in Colum
bus the other day, that he did not
"regard it as proper for any one in
a Representative capacity to seek to
influence the nominating conven
tion," but also said "The people of
Ohio have a friendly and sympathet
ic feeling for Foraker, on account of
the gallant campaign he made." Com
mercial Gaz'.tte, correspondent speaks
of an attempt to divide the Ham
ilton county delegation against
Foraker, but doubts if it will be suc
cessful.

Obituary.
MRS. ELIZABETH BRADLEY
Died very suddenly at her son's residence in
Buford, April 11th, 1885. She was born in
Fayette county.rennsylvania, between Browns-
villo and Uuiontown, on the 12th of April,
1801, and was a daughter of David and DebO'
rah Crable. She was married in the same
neighborhood where she was born, to William
Bradley. Some years after they were married
they moved to Chester, Randolph county, Ills.
where her husband died in IBM. Bister Brad'
ley was left a widow with one son, Sanford
Bradley, then about thirteen years old. In
October, 1851, she niaved to Buford, where she
reared her son to manhood, and with whom
she has ever since had a home. She has one
brother living, Washing Crable, who resides in
Lawrence county, Pennsylvania.
BiBter Bradley united with the Free Will
Baptist Church in Brownsville, Penn., whon
quite young, from which she received letters
of membership. She united with the Christian
Church at Buford over twenty-eight years
since, and during that time she has been
faithful member in all her Christian walks.
She took cold while at the funeral of her gran
daughter-in-law, Mrs. William Bradley, on the
4th instant, but had recovered somewhat, and
on Friday night went to bed feeling quite well,
but when her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Sanford
Bradley, called her to breakfast she reoeived
no response. Bhe had fallen asleep quietly
and apparently without a struggle, in whom
she had trusted for over sixty long years.
Elder J. W. Ruble preached her f unsral at
the Christian Church at half past two o'clock
on Babbath afternoon, to a very large and
sympathizing audience, from 2d Timothy, 4th
chapter, (Uh, 7th, and 8th verses, and as we
were passing from the twinkling light of the
grand luminary we quietly laid her body to
rent in the Buford cemetery, to await the morn
whan He who died to save shall bid the myriads
come forth from the sleeping dust, clothed in
immortality, to sing the song that angl
never sang. AtaiENU.

consolidation scheme which has
HUJXaT P the forces, which,
with long experience, have set up
in our midst one of the best enter
prises of which
Xi. community can boast. In no
little city in Southern Ohio of the

an established

boast of here, centrally located,
and convenient of access as the
HILLSBORO HARDYARE CO.
Competitors act as though a cy
clone had struck them. It is said
they have started the rumor that
this grand consolidation was made
to put up prices. The II. II. Co.
think just the reverse, that by buy
ing in larger quantities they buy
more cheaply, and in selling more,
reduce the price. That was the
intention. It is working well. An
nspection will prove it. Try it.
Since January 1st the II. II. Co.
have added to their already im
mense stock, One Car-load Sewer
and Flue Tile, One Car Drain Tile,
One Car Fire Brick, One Car
Stoves and Ranges, One Car Bug
gies, Two Cars Wagons, Two Cars
Plows and Plow Points, besides
many other smaller shipments:
Jewel Ranges, Fine Marbleizcd
Mantels, Tin and Tinners' Stock,
Buggy and Work Harness, Vapor
Stoves, etc. If you want the Best
Goods and the Lowest Prices, visit
the Old Reliable Corner and buy
of the
Hillsboro Hardware Co.

Economists may continue to
wrangle as to the causes of the
prevailing depression in general
values. With their fine drawn
theories the live merchant does not
concern himself, but recognizing
the present as an era of low prices,
goes into the market with the Key
to tJie Situation, in the shape of
Ready Cash, and avails himself of
the bargains which overloaded im
porters and manufacturers are
compelled to offer.
Our friends may rely upon us
being at all times ready for any ad
vantages obtainable and perfectly
willing to share them with our cus
tomers. In addition to the many
other goods which we have secured
at extremely low prices, we place
on sale this week 2, 500 yards of
4-4 Bleached Sheeting, fully 10 per
cent, better than a Lonsdale, at
8J4 cents per yard.
2,240 yards of English Cheviot
Dress Goods, at the unheard of
price of 6 cents per yard. These
are no bash.
Genuine English Cashmeres, in
a variety of shades, only 25 cents
per yard.
French Ottomans in beautiful
colors at 90 cents per yard. Cheap
at gi.25.
One more bale, and positively
the last one obtainable, of those
heavy Colored Blankets, at $ 1.00
per pair.
25 dozen Black Seamless Real
Kid Gloves at $1.00 per pair.
The importers' price on these

We have an elegant line o
Laces, Embroideries and Trim
mings at lower prices than can be
found elsewhere for like qualities.
Our line of Velvet, Body, Tap
estry and Ingrain Carpets is larger
and more complete than ever be
fore, and we defy any City House
to show nncer or better patterns, or
to name lenver prices on these
goods.

stock and customers need not fear
to trouble us when desiring to look
through.
