I he has something to say in answer to numerous in quiries regarding the late democratic convention. Evil fences of peace Ani happiness. It would be impossible for me to answer personally All the letters queries a that have come to me Bince the late democratic county convention held in Defiance. Democrats in every township in the county have had something to say and i want to state very frankly right now after hearing so Many expressions of opinion that were i a member of the party of the great unwashed the situation would certainly unsettle my pulse and speedily reduce me to that very alarming condition that usually exists prior to Many a Advent into that unknown realm from whence no traveler a Ere returns. Right from Defiance township where one would naturally expect to find the democracy As Happy As a Possum in a pers Immon tree come growl a protest and a kick each one so surprising so Stalwart in its proportions that a Republican As a Rule can Only find expression for his feelings in the words of an illustrious poet Quot do i sleep do i dream do i wonder and doubt Are things what they seem or is visions about a Tho trouble with my democratic fellow citizens in this township appears to be entered in the democratic nominee for probate judge they say they cannot and that by gosh they will not be forced to support him. They insist that c. E. Bronson had enough votes in the convention to nominate him but that by some Hook or Crook his enemies Oast their nets and captured part of his forces. Money i am daily making Loans on improved real estate in Northwestern Ohio at six per cent. Interest these Loans Are made on either Long or Short time with privilege of paying Back in partial payments before due and stopping interest on the amount paid. No life insurance required. I also buy Good notes and make abstracts upon reasonable terms. H. G Baker. Defiance. Ohio. No37 lawyer and loan agent. Ell Bre soon wed girls who use Are quickly Marrie Sapolio is one of the Best known City luxuries and each time a cake is used an hour is saved. On floors tables and painted work it acts like a Charm. For scouring pots pans and metals it has no equal. If your store keeper does not keep it you should insist upon his doing so As it always gives satisfaction and its immense Sale All Over the United states makes it an almost necessary article to any Well supplied store. Everything shines after its use and even the children Delight in using it in their attempts to help around the House. These expressions of dissatisfaction Are not confined to one township alone. To use a provincialism a they come from All there is judge Bevington a Frienda they claim that he was maligned and misrepresented and that they will never rest until they run Down the instigators of the unjust and uncalled for attacks that they will never support the nominee no never. The supporters of w. W. Huff Chaa Stailey and Martin Gurwell think their men were the victims of a combination that was formed for the express purpose of bringing the nominations for the three principal offices to this City. The friends of Glen Gray Uriah Babb o. E. Berean and we. Higgins look at the matter the same Way after the town had been Given the probate judge and auditor Tho county delegates thought they would certainly have Plain sailing for the clerkship. But in that they were mistaken and soon discovered that some unknown Foroe was controlling the actions of the convention As easily As the Man at the wheel controls the movement of a ship. Just As easily and surely As Baker and Deindoerfer pulled through did Joseph Hailer come to the goal and carry away the clerkship. To the bystanders with knowledge of the situation it looked like a plan had been carefully mapped out in Advance of the convention to nominate the three gentlemen named above. I was in the convention from to of look a. M. Until 2 of clock the next morning and would say in answer to Many queries that it was my belief that such a plan had been con humiliated several Days before the Conven lion was called the result in the Conven Tion Only strengthened that belief. The nominations were not rushed through. If that had been attempted it might have caused a panic. With each ballot cast the men finally nominated made a Small gain they never fell Back. That of course was to leave the impression that the nominations were coming by the hardest kind of work when As a matter of fact i firmly believe that any of these nominations could have been made on Tho second ballot had such heroic measures been necessary. It is my opinion that the City democrats were just that Weir organized. To me about the matter i would say that i do not consider that a fair division of the offices. It smacks of Bossis. It says in effect that a we Are the master you Are the when a county gets into that sort of shape All political significance ceases to exist and if the Demoor Atte Farmers Are willing to submit to such treatment i have nothing to say. The Republican express warned the country democracy of what would occur it has explained to them a half Hundred times that they were not Able to Cope with the leaders in the City of Defiance that these leaders would take everything Worth having and that which no one would care particularly to have would be awarded the country. In the late Deal Defiance carries away the nomination for sheriff Surveyor commissioner recorder auditor clerk probate judge end prosecuting attorney. The nomination for infirmary director was Given to a Horny headed Farmer of Mark township. Now my country friends if Tho town democracy have the Power Over Yon they claim they have i presume Yon will have to March no like Little men and support the ticket. If you Are held in bondage you have my sympathy and pity. No one who has not occupied a similar position can imagine what stores of sadness come to the Man who is accorded the undivided Confidence of a much abused democracy. Even now As i write i hear far Down the Maumee Valley the song service of innumerable frogs returning thanks presumably for autumnal showers. It is eventide. The River is hidden from bight by Clouds of Mist that hang Over it like a White pall. In the song service i have evidence of peace and happiness in Tho Frog family. How different from the discord that exists among my democratic fellow citizens i have begged and plead with you my poor misguided Bourbon Brethren but without Avail. Aud now my friends being actuated by feelings that should guide All men who desire to Point out a moral or adorn a tale cannot refrain from recommending to you for careful consideration the words of the psalmist a a behold How Good and How pleasant it is for Brethren to dwell together in a it is like the precious ointment upon the head that ran Down upon the Beard even Aarons Beard that went Down to the skirts of his Florida. Death of a Pioneer new teachers items of general interest. On the Day preceding the convention the Republican exp Esh named the nominees for probate judge auditor Aud the clerk of the Coart the question has been asked me a Good Many times whether or not any person connected with the paper had any inside information on the Subj not most certainly not. The conclusions Given were Only arrived at after a careful study of the list of delegates. I make the statement on the Best of authority that two of the nominees could have commanded 205 votes in the convention at any time they Hud called for them but a stated above it was not the purpose to crush the country delegates but to merely take away from them the coveted prizes without creating any More feeling than pus-1 Hie. The organization against the country delegates was Strong and skilfully managed and it was not until the work of the convention was about concluded that they realized How woefully they had been Defeated. The iconoclasts of the City spread sorrow throughout the Rural districts buteo far As i have Beau Able to observe Are not worrying very much Over the result. They say a ooh those Fellows out in the country will kick some but they will soon get in Hue again and support the ticket without a murmur. They will have to do that we will whip them in. They have had their legs Over the Trace chains a Good Many times before but when election Day rolled around they were always compelled to March up to the polls Aud vote the straight democratic ticket they will do the same thing this i do not believe there Are very Many people in this county who would care to question my republicanism. I act and work with that party because i believe in its principles. It abolished slavery preserved the Union and Bas Given us legislation that has made ours the most prosperous nation under the Sun it is distinctly a party of the people Aud All the people have to Day they owe to the Republican party. Of course then in the contest that has Arisen Between the City und country democracy i am supposed to be nothing but a Looker on. I know that if the ticket nominated at the late democratic convention is elected Defiance will have ten and the country people five of the county officers and to answer to All democrats who have written or spoken a Little son of f.
