Out 30,000 newspapers in the United states but fifteen endorsed Debs and his anarchist conferees at Chicago. Harrison a administration left a depleted National Treasury and Mckinley has an a a heirloom in Ohio ready to drop into the Lap some one. Advice is Given to Japan not to Crow too loud until they know what the Heathen chinese has up his sleeve for their tricks Are dark and Peculiar. _ president Cleveland will not sign the Tariff Bill just passed but will let it become a Law under the constitutions that is letting 10 Days expire without signing vetoing it. It will be necessary to Call a special session the Ohio legislature to devise some Means for paying the state debt. It is Safe to say however that it will not be done until after the election. Gorman has been called Down by his constituents and he is now More conservative in his remarks president Grover Cleveland. It is not Well to be a bigger Man in ones estimation than the head and ruler a country. Madeline Pollard at last will Goon the stage. She will appear in Chicago shortly in a play called a Penny a under the management Nelson Roberts. Willie will congratulate himself As being gloriously avenged upon the unsuspecting Public. Coxey and Debs will each charge $100 a Day in the lecture Field. They both gained cheap Fame and notoriety but soon these blather skites will be regaled to private life unheard and forgotten As other would be leaders mushroom upheavals by gone Days. The Mckinley Bill being prohibitory in its effects importations has reduced the government Revenue to such a degree that if left statute books for another year would make the government bankrupt. Yet the republicans Are doing All in their Power to maintain the evil. The next step the democratic party should take in the Way legislation is to restore Silver to its place in the currency the country. The course pursued in repealing the Sherman Silver Bill without substituting something instead Cost the democratic party thousands votes. Let them now come to the front and redeem their pledges. The Senate Tariff Bill has at last been passed. While it does not give the satisfaction the Wilson House Bill would have Given it is probably better than prolonging the matter. The country is in a strained condition caused by the panic which overspread the United states before the present administration came into Power and largely aggravated by the Long contest and unsettled condition the Tariff question. It is to be hoped that the business the country will in a great degree rally from the lethargy the past. It ought not to be expected that every thing will be converted into a big a a Boom a by the Long looked for Tariff legislation but it is expected that business will be stimulated and gradually grow into a healthy condition. No party can make business by legislation it can Only put the people in position for fair play in the exercise their energies and inspire Confidence in the investment capital. A Little genuine Faith exercised by each individual will add largely in bringing about a healthy growth in business. The weakness humanity in taking up the cry danger and disaster in the business world when the political parties Are changing the reins government from one to the other is in a great degree the cause depression Lack Confidence and inaction in business. No party Ever made a greater Effort to bring about that state things than the Republican party has done since the government passed into the hands the democracy. The professional politician the Gold Bug the protected monopolist and Trust combines All United in one monstrous Effort to create distrust in the administration to obstruct the will the people and thus prevent needed legislation. The a a hounds War a were heard baying in the Sanctum every party Organ. The evil they wrought is inestimable the will the people has at last prevailed while the struggle seemed prolonged beyond reason yet the causes when known will justify the party. It took a Republican Congress until in october to pass the Mckinley Bill and their criticisms come with poor Grace at this time. Let every Democrat now take courage and stand up like a Man for the principles democracy. We Are right the great economic questions the Day and a Little time will convince you the fact.

Lash who resides about 1% Miles Northwest Bolivar was held up and robbed saturday night last about 8 clock As he was his Way Home. He had been to town and Drew about $200 in Money which he had his person. He started for Home about 8 clock taking his usual route Home past the Xiv amp l. E. Depot and Over the trestle work. He noticed that two men started ahead him from the depot and when they got to the trestle they turned Back and said to him that they would not risk walking the trestle and advised him not to do it. He went however and they followed him and overtook him before he got to the end the trestle. He suspected that they meant mischief by following and he took out a Small pocket knife to defend himself with. As they caught up with him one the men struck . Lash with a club which dazed him somewhat but he fought viciously with the knife and in the struggle succeeded in throwing his pocket Book away. They Drew revolvers in his face and overpowered him then they tied his hands behind his Back and marched him Down into a piece Wood land and there tied him to a tree. They then searched him for his Money and took about 9 dollars in Silver which he had in his pocket. They demanded his pocket Book but he had none. They then went Back to the trestle where they first assaulted him lit newspapers and tried to find the pocket Book. They searched until after 11 clock for the Money which they thought he had thrown away. In the meantime one the men went to see if . Lash was still securely tied and finding him almost Loose retired him and went Back to to continue the search. Between eleven and twelve clock lash got Loose by picking at the fibres the Cord with the Finger nails until he had severed the Cord that held him to the tree. He then went to the residence his Cousin Jacob lash called him out and had his hands untied. He borrowed a shot gun and started for Home. When he got to the end the Lane near Home he saw the parties in the Field and at once opened fire them with the shot gun they returned the fire with their revolvers and ran away. The next morning he went to the trestle work and found his pocket Book with the Money in it All right the robbers failing to find it in the dark one the robbers undoubtedly was Cut with the knife in the scuffle As blood marked the tree and Cord and was noticed around where they tied him. He does not know whether any the shot struck them not. Lash escaped without harm except the Bruise from the stroke the club. It was rather a thrilling experience but he showed considerable courage. It is a great pity he did not succeed in sending them to their final resting place. There is no doubt but that they had a in Bol Iver that gave the a a tips As they were both strangers and had no other Way knowing that he had the Money and the route he would take going Home. One was a tall Man and the other a Stout heavy built Man. They got $9. For their heinous work. It is hoped they will be run Down yet. A sad Accident. Mrs. E.

Mrs Holden was fortunately not dead when picked up but conscious though somewhat bruised. A Bush stood Between which doubtless saved her in the fall. It was a narrow escape from death. We Are glad to hear that she is recovering from her injuries. After the position. Quite a spirited contest has been going among the applicants for the appointment school examiner. Each applicant seems to have Many friends at work to press his claim. There Are a number excellent gentlemen and educators who Are willing to serve in the capacity school examiner but Only one can be accommodated. W. E. Beck who is a Democrat is the present incumbent whose term expires in a few Days. He had Many warm supporters for reappointment and in fact made a Good officer. He was fair and impartial and filled the position with credit. But the political complexion the appointing Power having changed in the past year . Beck will not be reappointed. It is said that prof. Duff Newcomerstown is slated for the position. He is a dyed in the Wool Republican a smooth politician and generally scores a a Home there is no doubt prof. Duff is thoroughly qualified being one the leading educators the county if judge Stephenson follows the precedent the democratic probate judges he will retain a minority representation the Board.

Which made quite a pleasant time for the attendants. John a. Hostetler was the chief speaker in the afternoon and was listened to with marked attention. Speeches were also made at night. Many the Points made by the speakers especially the Tariff and Silver questions can be heartily endorsed by the democrats. In fact the populists should go Over to the democratic party for its platform embraces the important Points in the populist platform and the necessary legislation for the masses can lie accomplished More quickly through the democratic party than for the populists to go it alone expecting to eventually gain Power sufficient to carry their Points.

During the Cenus decade ending in 1889 there were 6,517,-747 mortgages made real estate in this country representing an incurred indebtedness $12,094,877,793. These figures Are beyond the Ordinary understanding. More reasonable is the statement that the mortgage indebtedness the 1st january 1890, amounted to $6,019,679,985, represented by 4,777,698 mortgages. The interest the mortgages outstanding was 6.60 per cent. This makes the annual interest the real estate mortgage indebtedness the country $397,342,792. The average annual interest charge each mortgage in Force is $83. New York Heads the list mortgage indebtedness having $1,607,874,-301 invested in 579,472 mortgages. Pennsylvania has very nearly the same number mortgages Only 60,-000, less but they represent an indebtedness Only $613,105,802 much less than one half that new York. New Yorkus mortgage indebtedness is 26.71 this class in the United states. Nevada has the smallest indebtedness this kind. The More Prosper and populous states have the largest mortgage indebtedness. There Are 15 states where it is in excess $100,000,000 and these Are All Northern and Western states. The interest charges real estate mortgages the average for 10 years a vary from 5.51 in Massachusetts 5.53 in new a Quot Ork and 5.67 in Pennsylvania to 11.82 in Idaho. The average in Wyoming Idaho Utah Nevada Montana and Arizona All pass the 10 per cent limit. The average for the whole country is 6.90 per cent. An attempt was made by the census Bureau by getting returns from 102 selected counties through personal inquiry to find out the objects mortgage indebtedness. In amount 56.65 per cent the Money was for Purchase Money and 20.81 per cent for improvements. The total for Purchase Money and improvements not combined with other objects was 82,56 per cent.
