First and ioremoat shall tbe Re publicans retain control of our State affairs and institutions. Will the next United States Senator from the great State ot Ohio be a Republican ? Will the election laws for protection to the ballot enacted by a Repnbican legislature remain 1 Will the redisricting of our State be done by a Reoabllcan or Democratic legislature t Ait) we to have biennial elections f Alf these and other questions are Involved in the coming election. Therefore, It Is tbe duty of- every Republican to go to the polls on next Tuesday and cast a straight ballot The election of which means the settlement of all these great questions In the right way. Nothing but neglect on the part of Republicans will prevent a de cisive victory for the entire Republican ticket "Eternal vigilance is the price of Iberty." Vote the straight Repnbllcan ticket, elect Geo. Hlldebrand, and thereby help to elect a Republican United States Senator to succeed Hon. Henry B. Payne. Toe Adventlsts of Fredriclubargh, Vs, have been disappointed again. Elder R. 0. Brown of Connecticut had told his little flock of the falthlol that the day ot Judg ment would be at band Tuesday, Oct. 22. . Tbe day passed away and the world still stands. Forty families are reported to have left their farms and repaired to the church ground forty days previous to tbe date, In order to be ready for the occasion. They spent many weeks in tile most fan tastic methods ol "driving ont pride," "crnciiylng the flesh," and purifying them. selves generally. Some women crswled tbe whole length of the village tbiough tbe mud and slush. One msn had him self burled to the neck la the earth." Mao; paid old debts which time had outlawed and a country editor, whose humor arose superior to the terror of the impending day, announced that an ."old Hake had paid np a nine years' delinquent fubscrip-j tion, and the most hardened agnostic can not doubt his conversion." The country editors throughout northern Ohio had better send for Elder Brown to come over In this neck of woods and hold a meeting Land Commissioner Groff found a novel case awaiting decision when he en tered the land office. Four years ago a young lady went from Iowa to Dakota on a visit to a friend. There she learned that a beautiful eighty acre tract lay alongside of a farm which had just been entered oj Michael Barr, She home steaded on It, buiJ t a house and broke some sod. But May and Michael fell in love and were made one; then came a serious question, how could one bold two homesteads. They attempted to overcome the difficulty by moving both houses up to the line between the farms and by keep ing a lull equipment .pf housekeeping arrangements, iu each. There was no door between and when they went from one house to the other they risked the cutting blasts of a Dakota blizzard. It was loye against law. But unfortunately for their ingenious devices, tho law got the best of it. The cold hearfd Nebraska Commissioner decided that when the young lady became Mrs. Barr she was de barred from the homestead prerogatives. The decision forms a precedent. Young ladies can only keep their homesteads by keeping their hearts. And yet moit young ladies get a home for their hearts. So that it Is a confusing question, and perhaps the best that can be done with it is to let each young woman decide for herself when the emergency arises,! as she most certainly will do anyhow. Advance. The modern magazine may be tuken as embodying the best literature of tbe world as the magazine editor pays the highest prices to novelists, scientists, statesmen soldiers, and even kings and princes, for the best they can furnish in the liter ary line. The well-edited magazine be comes an educating influence in the fam ily circle, whose importance cannot be over estimated. The children, as they grow up are attracted by its illustrations, and so come In time to have a taste lor reading. There is always something that is new, something that Is strange, some thing that is interesting; and we consider that we are doing our readers a positive benefit 11 we are instrumental in placing sueh a publication within their reach. The special arrangements which we have made with the Cosmopolitan presents very unusual inducements. That magazine, although only in the tenth month under Its new management, is already recog lned as one ot tbe most Interesting publi cations ol the day. Senator Sherman talks about Third Termlsm at Columbus, On In the fol lowing language: "I have nothing more to say, except this, that the Republican candidates all through, from Governor Foraker down to the end of the ticket, represent the creed and principles of the Republican party; therefore they ought to be elected.. That they have been fairly nominated there is no doubt, rhe nominating conventions of the two parties met and placed before hte people of Ohio the candidates of their choice. We belong to either one or the other of these great parties. We are not wandering stars, but we are either Republicans or Democrats, and eyery man elected In Ohio this rail will be either a Republican or a Democrat Now, what have been the ob jections made to Governor Foraker f Does any man say he Is not an honorable, high minded man? Becoming a Union soldier when a boy, and all during the war per forming feats of heroism; not excelling other soldiers, but equaling any oi them; man of high character, of honorable record, a judge, a lawyer, twice a Gover nor, and-nownomiuatud tbe third time as Governor of tbe State ol Ohio This is an exceptionally good record, of which any man might well be proud. But here comes the rub. They say he is nominated for tbe third time, and be is what they call a "third term" candidate. Why for a third term ? Becanse he has done so well In both his previous terms that the Republican party of Ohio were willing to sanction him as their candidate for a third term and Intend to elect him. Great applause. Why should not man be nominated by tbe Republicans for a third term as Governor of Ohio What a there In the office that prevents bis lull and free and complete performance of all the duties Imposed upon him as Governor of Ohio? It is simply folly. What can Governor Foraker, elected lor a third term, do to endanger tbe liberties of tbe people of Ohio? Nothing. In the tint place it is not in his heart to do anything that would affect Injuriously the people of Ohio. Long continued cheers. Why, fellow citizens, it Is making a mountain nut of a mole hill ; It is perfectly ridiculous, and when my venerable friend Judge Tburman. for whom I have pro found respect when be stood up before the thousands of people who heard him last night, and talked about the powers of the Governor of Ohio, he knew better, And the truth now is that what make some men disgruntled In Ohio In regard to a third term. Is because Governor Foraker, perhaps, did not satisfy thorn in the tilling some Insignificant appointments which he has had to make. Applause and shouts ot approval. That because he has this power, he can affect In any way the Inter ests of the people of Ohio, as I said, Is the merest nonsense. What is there in lit What else Is there in the objection t I do not know any. Cheers. I ask any man In tills audience, now before me, to name me an objection to Uovern'r.Foraker, and let us see If I cannot answer it. Home of Hie greatest and ablest men ever produced in this country have heKl this position a long time. And yet, Gover nor Foraker, because he was unamlously nominated . by the Republican party as Governor for third term, is to be held up as man who has become the Ctesar of our State, The Republican party, born and bred to go through. all tbe storms and scenes of political warfare, Is not to be disturbed with Idle ghosts, mere phantoms of the brain. They conjure children and weak-minded people, but never the Re publican party of the Stale of Ohio. Washington Letter. . " From onr Regular Correspondent. Wabhingtoh, Oct 25, 1889. Tbe President having disposed of tbe perplexing question ot who should be Commissioner of Pensions to tbe satis faction of himself, and of tho party leaders, as far as heard from, has devoted his entire time this week to preparing his message to Congress. I say hU ' entire time, by that I mean bis official time; he has considered no other official matter. Gen. Raum, the new Commissioner of T" , . I . . . . rensiuas, is moving very careiuny. lv '.j not his purpose to make uay chnng un til certain of his ground. Just now he is engaged, and is likely to be for some time to come, in acquainting himself with the work of the office. It is generally believed that as soon as he gets things in shape many official changes will , be ' made several of them involving the most im portant positions In tho Burnuu. Gen Raum's record ss Commissioner of In ternal Revenue, leaves no doubt that his administration of the Pension office will be entirely successful. Secretary Blaine has devoted considers ble time this week to a rigid investigation of charges made against W. R. Lewis, U. S. Consul at Morocco, of extol ting money from certain parties for United States pro tection in Algiers. Mr. Lewis, and his accusers natives ot Algiers have been present at the investigation, the result of which has not yet been made public. Tbe President has been compelled by a press of important business here to de cllne an invitation to attend the laying of the corner-stone of tbe Soldiers, and Sail ors, monument at Brooklyn, N. Y. which is to take glace on the 80ib, Inst Representative-elect Taylor, of Illinois is here with his bride. He says the Illinois, delegation is solid for Mr. Can non for Speaker and that they believe his chances of election are as good as anyone else's. Mr. Halford, the President's private secretary, has gone to Fortress Monroe for a few days before actively resuming his arduous duties His health Is very much improved and his physician thinks the sea air will complete tbe cure. May the doctor prove a true prophet Chief Justice Fuller evidently knows a good thing when be has possession of It hence his positive refusal to allow tbe use of hi nsme In tbe scramble for Jlie empty honor of the Democratic Presidential nomination In 1802. f 10,600 a year for life is not a snap picked up every day, and tbe shrewdness acquired by a long residence In Chicago has made the Chief Justice fully approve of the an cient adage "a bird In the band," etc. Mr. Houck also thinks the time has arrived when very man who has been honorably discharged from the rrmy or navy should receive a seivlce pension of $12 or (IB a month. Washington's real boom for World's Ex position of 1892 began on Wednesday, when representatives from nearly every State In the Union met here for the pur pose of arranging a memorial to be presen ted to Congress In favor of this city as the proper location for the great celebration. The memorial sets forth at length the special advantages of Washington and the National character of the proposed ex position. The board ca'Jed on the Presi dent in a body, and were very cordially received. There is no doubt that the President favors Washington, but. Of course good taste prevents his publicly saying so at this time. Col. Dill's Love for the Old Soldiers. The way Col. Dill of Mansfield, Demo- crat candldatejfor tbe State Senate tries to hoodwink the old soldiers and procure their votes is Illustrated by an incident that took place in Mansfield last week. Dill went to an enthusiastic Grand Army man, and a Republican, and requested his vote on tbe ground that the old soldiers ought to stand toetgber and support each other. Dill was so earnest and apparently so sincere in bis devotion to the old sol diers that the Grand Army man had about concluded to vote tor him and do what, be could to urge others to do the same, nut at tbe close of this conversation he hap pened to think that he bad an old comrade running on the Republican ticket for 'a county office and be asked Dill if be would not vote for him, but this was more than Dill bad bargained for and he bad to confess that' he could not nor would not vote for any one but a Democrat Dill has had a hundred chances to vote for an old soldier since he left the service and yet he has never voted for one unless be hsppened to be on the Democrat ticket, which we know Is seldom the case. The gentlemen who placed Dill in nomination before the Democrat Senatorial Convention stated that his principal qualifications and fit ness for the position were that be was a Democrat eviry inch of him and that he never had voted for nor supported any one but a Democrat Comrades, be not deceived In this matter and when Dill or anyone asks for your votes let them show themrelves as liberal to soldlors as they request you to be, Am Old Soi-man .
