Tnonlm of Mr. Elizabeth WIndel or at the office of 4DMH ct A oaten. VOL. XXX. Mbs.

Cleveland, In snubbing Fnraker, has set an example that Ohio would do well to follow. The Republicans of New York have nominated Col. Fred Grant for Secretary of State, but when Gov. Hill nominated him for a high office, last winter, a Republican Senate refused to confirm the nom; nation. Mbs.

Elizabeth M. Maktin, who whs the first woman to recom mend type setting as a means of livelihood for woman, died! in Indianapolis last Thursday. She was tbe daughter of Jadge Smith, who founded the first paper ever published in Indianapolis, his daughter learniog the trade under him in 1809. We have been informed that a member of Mr. Garretson'a family said when it was discovered that Mr.

Thomas had suicided, that There's something more for The Democrat to bowl about." If there's any truth in the old adage that "a guilty conscience is its own accuser" we respectably suggest that this matter might be looked into by the proper authorities, The statements in the last issue of The Democrat, in regard to the alleged order for reading The Democrat in the puMic schools, were'made after interviewing Prof. Hamilton anil the' teacher of the grammar grade, whom the Herald gave as authority for the alleged order, rfoth of them unequevocal ly and emphatically deny the story and we, or the public, have no reas on to question the veracity of Prof. Hamilton or the teacher. We can only reiterate what we have said heretofore that the hue and cry raised by the Herald fs simply for the purpose of hiding its own misdeeds and those of its party associates from the gaze of the public. In act, the editor of the Herald in private conversation with different parties has 'said that there was nothing in the story, but he intend ed to give it to the school board all the same.

One of the most contemptible occurrences that has come to our attention for some time was the publication, in the Indianapolis Journal, and other Republican papers of an alleged interview with James Voorhees, a son of Hon. D. W. Voorhet in which the President and his course was condemned. The young man is almost an imbecile, and had juat been released from an asylum, when he fell.

Into the hands of a Republican reporter, who proceeded to interview him, and then suit his statements over the country as voicing the sentiments, of Senator Voorhees. Could anything be more contem tible? A itplitical party that has to resort to interviews with imbeciles in order to get political capital and bolster up its cause, is not far from final dissolution and the quicker such a party dies the better for the country. The fact is that the tariff, like the other measures of government policy adopted by the Republican party while in iower, is so nearly just and equitable that the Demo crats dare not make any cnange in it. Herald. As a matter of fact, (he Demo crats having control of only one branch of Congress have no power to change it, as to its being.

"just and equitable" as the Herald claims, we let the Indianapolis Hews, a strong Republican paper, give one instance of the workings of this ''Just and equitable" tariff. The Netcs says "The first report of the New York state factory inspectors has been recently made. The extent to which child labor plays a part in the life of the poor of that state is appalling. In one cotton factory at Cohoes more than 1,200 children under ten years of age were found at work. All were densely illiter ate, and so were their parents.

The majority of the latter signed affidavits required by the inspect rs with the "cross." Among the immigrant children lately landed at Castle Garden the inspectors round less illiteracy. As in New Yoik, so In Massachusetts. Inthe latter State, one of the oldest American commonwealths, the proper officials lately reported 121, 000 persons over sixteen years of age who were unaoie to read or write. Child labor in Pennsylvania, with its inevitable accompaniments of illiteracy, crime and disease, it is well known is widely spread, and in ce of the law for bidding it. Why? The father or the family can not earn enough for the family.

Child labor Is the last resort of poverty. Anl now, be it noted that this condition prevails in these older and more densely settled eastern states, and that it is spreading. Where, then, in the name of false does the American system" oi a protective tariff protect the American workmen? The tariffltes are forever talking about the "superior condition" of the American workingmen, and declaring It to be a direct effect of the tariff. In the face of this Is the growing use of child labor. Do parents put their tender children lo body breaking, atuntintr toil for choice Do the little things do it from preference over hours in the primary sctioolH? And tafee tbe condition of the vast mass of coal' miners and coke burners in Pennsylvania! With Their wages minimized by the importation of foreign labor under contract; with their long hours of work and days of idleness; with the company store ystem to rob them in food buying and the company tenant system to rob them in house rent, It is doubtful if the a shines on greater misery.

And yet their employers are protected by a tariff which gives them an increased price on their product, while the laborer, he he in a Pennsylvania mine or in a New England cotton factory, with his children at his oide, is told that the tariff "protects" him. How long will he be Able to stand this 'pro lection T' THE 0HE.AHD OILY Huntlnfirton County Fair, Opens With Gloom and Closes in Sunshine Unterrified by Rain and Mud the People Give the Fair a Good Send Off The regular meetings of the Huntington County Agricultural Association are famous for the exhibitions, and the meetings are always anticipated with pleas ure by the farmers, and people gen erally. The exhibition just closed was no exception to this rule and for months past exhibitors and mem bers of the association have looked forward with pleasure to the next fair, and made their preparations to give it a "boom." When the "One and Only" opened on Tuesday the outlook for a sue cessful meeting was anything but pleasant as the rain was coming down in a way that threatened to put to flight all calculations of pleasant times. The exhibitors and management, however, were un dismayed by the miserable weath er and kept at work placing exhibits in position and making all necessary arrangements for a success ful meeting. Wednesday the skies brightened up and President (Sim on ton and Secretary Bagley began to smile, but ere the smile could broaden the rain came pattering down and their hopes of a good day were eone; on Thursday notwith standing the mud and rain there was quite a goodly number of farm ers and city people on hand and, including Wednesday, the receipts were somewhat ahead of the same days last year.

Friday morning the, skies gave promise of good weather and before nine o'clock the grounds were pretty well filled with people from all parts of the county. About this time a hard shower came up that lasted for some hours, but it did not dampen the enthusiam of the people as wagons and carriages, continued to arrive in a steady stream, and was sufficient evidence of the good reputation of the "One and Only." The attendance on this day, run up into the thousands and it must have been a gratification to tbe management to see their ef forts appreciated, for it takes a good fair to make men, women and children wade through mud and water to attend it Saturday was the "big day" of the fair and from tho opening of the gates until the close, a steady stream of humanity was constantly passing through. Every part of the county, and many adjoining coun ties were represented by farmers and their families all doin? their best to have a good time and see all that was to be seen. The exhibits in every depart ment were unusually good. In ART HALL every Inch of available space was taken up with paintings, fancy needle work, crochet, embroidery and thousand and one things made by the ladies, that go to make our homes beautiful and pleasant.

There were so many exhibitors in this department that it would be impossible, in our limited space, to give a proper notice of each. FLORAL HALL. In this department the exhibits were not as large as last season, but the hall was well filled and presented a vejy handsome appearance Among the exhibitors here were M. B. Stults with a fine display of furniture.

Stover, the painter, had a fine exhibit of his handiwork. P. H. Zahn and John Kindler made a handsome display of blankets, lap robes, Drover Drover, as usual, were on liand with a handsome display of plush goods, toilet and fancy articles that attracted much attention. A.Keonig had a fine stock of watches a aid.

other goods in his line. William John Son, made good showing with the New Home, Standard and American machines, also exhibiting specimens of their work. The Singer Maehine through their agent J. H. Rogers, had a good exhibit.

Mat Highland had a case of horse shoes that were good enough to make every horse in the county kick its old shoes off in orcler to get a set from "Mat." The Mammoth Shoe House had two cases of fine boots; shoes, the only ones exhibited. The dis play of vegetables, grain, seeds, fruits, etc was unusually good considering the dry season that we have had goes to show that Huntington can hold her own hi that line. Among those who had exhibits in this department were Will P. He.e, Mardinus; M. Stahl, F.

C. Mason, and John Kereh baum.of Huntington; Oliver Fisher andG.W. Oiltner, ofMt.Etna;L. II. Paul, Jacob Stults and others whose names we were unable to get.

In the MECHANICAL DEPARTMENT were fine displays of ers, plowe, wagons, and in fact every necessity, and convenience for the use of the farmer, was exhibited by J. S. Provines Kxiegbaum Sons and W. T. Whltelock Much of tho machinery was in operation and surrounded by admiring crowds all the time.

CATTLE. In this department the exhibits were first cla8, but not as large as they should have been. Warren Mason Sons of Wabash county exhibited a herd, consisting of nine head of thoroughbred short horns; A. Q. IffeL or Rose Hill, Wabash county exhibited a herd of seven grade cattle.

C. E. Briant, George Hosier, Henry Wagoner, Robert Simonton and John Kahlenback also had some fine stock in the pens. It is to be regretted that none of our farmers exhibited the only exhibit of that breed being by Sayre Wiles. SHEEP.

The exhibition of horses, cattle, sheep, swine, and poultry by the farmers, of the county gave evidence of prpgressiveness none but good breeds being shown. The fair would have been almost a failure had it not been for tbe presence and handiwork of the ladies, which added beauty and pleasure to the exhibition. Mesdames Alice Woods and L. D.

Although tbe outlook was uupromising and certain loss stared them in the face, they went ahead and did everything as premised all races were given, premiums paid in full, and while the association made no money we are glad to say they did not lose anything. The seductive cane and cigar rackets caught a goodly grist of good people and some too who wouldn't think of betting on a horse race. The man who 'sold jewelry with a string to it was well patronized and many stood and watched the two caricatures of men jumping around and pre tending to sing to attract the people to the swing who wouldn't think of going to see a respectable play in a theatre because it's wick ed.

The petition alleges that in October 1885, the plaintiff was thrown from a wagon loaded with wood, by which accident the elbow joint of his left arm was dislocated; that he employed the defendant to attend him, which he did, but set the bone improperly, causing him prolonged and unnecessary pain and that as a result of his treatment the arm is stiff and virtually useless.

Dr. Kilander, however, claims that after he had properly bandaged the arm removed, or allowed the bandages to come off and would not follow directions as given "but managed the case to suit himself. All of which statements will be investigated and decided by "twelve of their peers" at the October term of Court. THE WKATHER. Report of the Weather for Sept, 1887.

These diseased should be guarded against. The lungs, while less exposed, are equally, if not more, delicate and liable to diseases. As play one of the most important parts in life, serving as resorvoir for pxygen, the life giving element that is taken from the air in the process of inhalation, they should be watched with jealous care. Unfit them for duty and an obituary notice in the press tells the sequel more sadly, true, but more eloquently than words.

The least disturbance in their functionary work should be removed. Light diseases soon develop malignant proclivities. If your throat or lungs are diseased apply a remedy at once, and none is better or more effectual than Dr. J. W.
