Tni') ollicial Treasury statement to be issued .hine I will show that the expenditures of the Government for the eleven months of the current fiscal year have exceeded the receipts bv 37:2,000,000, the aggregate standing in round figures, receipts 8:2(58,000,000. expenditures S'i40.00(),000. These tigures indicate a total deficit for the twelve months of the fiscal year of about S7S,000,000, So much for the first year of Democratic l-tilc.

Tin-: Mouse Committee on [PostofTices lias agreed upon a bill increasing the pay of letter carriers. In cities with a population of 75.000 and upward they lire to receive 8000 for the first year, with an annual increase of §200 until the pay reaches §1,200. In all cities with less than 75.000 population the salary begins at

SiiOO,

and increases

3200 annually until the salary is 81,000 For the service rendered these salaries seem reasonable and proper.

AM. lumber has been placed on the free list by the Senate. This not only includes logs, which are already free, but lumber of any sort, rplaned, finished, tongued and grooved. This decision afl'ects an industry in which 35Si,000.000 are invested, and which pays more than 81115.000,000 a year in wages. The Democrats propose to destroy every planing mill in the

United States, and transfer this industry across the Canadian line. Rice and peanuts tire of more importance than lumber as both these articles remain on the dutiable list.

Tim New York Tribune says the confidence of the Democratic tariff tinkers during the last Presidential campaign was in singular contrast to their present mood of mind, which is that of terror and prostration and abasement at the injury and ruin which their preliminary experiments have wrought upon the business and prosperity of the country. There is not now probably a

Democrat with a thimbleful of brains from one end of the country to the other who so much as dreams of electing a Democratic President or House of Representatives next time: or that the fantasies which they are now trying to weave into the industrial and financial system have any prospect of success in the future. Some of them pretend to believe in Democratic victory and a restoration of the free trade craze after an interregnum of a single term which they concede to the Republicans. Hut tliey have not hitherto been so correct in their forecastings as to inspire much confidence that they see straight this time.

"TIIK AYi:s 1IAVK IT."

The Republican county convention

of last Saturday w.ill go down in his­

tory as one of the most harmonious

and smoothest running assemblages of

party politicians that ever met in the county. The arrangements were perfect and the proceedings from start to finish were characterized by the utmost harmony. There was a little friction at the starting up of the ma chine but the cogs were soon adjusted and from that time on everything van like clock work. Much credit is due to the committee for the system it adopted in seating the delegates, the ollicers. the press and spectators, in eluding the ladies. Everything was done that could be done to contribute to the comfort of the audience and tin expedition of business. The committee on organization made a happy selection in .John C. Wingate as permanent president. He proved to be the man for the occasion. His speech, accepting the position, put' everybody in good humor, and his rulings were prompt, impartial and satisfactory to all. The actual business of the convention. the balloting-for nominations, occupied about two hours, which, all things considered, was a dispatch of business unprecedented when it is remembered that it required twenty ballots to complete the ticket. Of the result of the labors of the convention the ticket speaks for itself. It is composed of some of the best men of the county. It is a good ticket singly and in all its parts. The delegates labored under great difliculty in making a choice from so many good men who presented themselves as candidates for the various positions. Hut tliev made their choice and everybody should be satisfied. There may be personal disappointments and probably are. but these disappointments are inseparable from politics. It is no reflection on the character or the running qualities of any defeated candidate that some other man should be chosen. The man who gets left should remember that the man who gets there is equally as good as himself, and the more philosophy he mixes in with his defeat the greater lie will lie in the eyes of the public. Hut to the personnel of the ticket:

Capt. 10. T. McCrea. the nominee for Representative, is a citizen of Coal Creek township. He is a. farmer by occupation, is popular with the people, progressive in his ideas, and ill represent the county in the State Legislature with an ability that will relied credit on his constituency.

Dumont Kennedy, the nominee for Prosecuting Attorney, is the youngest son of Hon. P. S. Kennedy, lie is one of^the rising young attorneys at the bar and his future is bright for a successful career. His abilities are of a high order and Tin', .IOI UXAI. is sanguine that he will make his mark as a Prosecutor.

William M. White, who carried off the nomination for Auditor, is a selfmade young man. His qualifications for the oliice are of a superior order, lie litis a wide acquaintance throughout the county and none know him but to esteem him for his true and generous manhood.

William Johnson, the nominee for Treasurer, is an old citizen of Scott township. He is a farmer and stock dealer and is widely and favorably known among the farmers for his rugged honesty and fair dealing. His name is a synonym for integrity.

Charles 10. Davis is the present Sheriff. He was nominated by acclamation. The fact that he had no opposition was a concession to his abilities and to his faithfulness as an officer.

Harvey E. Wynecoop, the nominee for Surveyor, is a self made young man. Hy his own unaided efforts he has worked his way through Wabash College and will graduate in June with high honors. As a hustler he is a success, and will bring to the discharge of his duties a thorough knowledge of his profession.

Dr. Paul .1. Parens, the nominee for Cjroner. is one of the most popular physicians in the county. He is a son of the late Col..John M.Harcus and was reared in the north part of the county. That he will make a good race goes without saying.

Hannibal Trout, the nominee for Commissioner from the Eastern District, is known to almost every man in Montgomery county. He has twice represented uMontgomery county in the Legislature, and is known as a man of good judgment, of careful business habits, and will make an ideal Commissioner.

Henry W. Harding, who carried off the nomination for Commissioner from the Middle District over three other excellent men, is a successful farmer living two miles south of the city. He is careful and painstaking in all business matters and will look after the interests of the county with the same care that he looks after his own.

Such is the personnel of the Republican county ticket. Let the Democrats match it if they can.

IJK New York World tells a solid truth when it says:

l,The

Senate can

close its doors a great deal easier than it can close the eyes of the American people to the evidence of folly and fraud in the official acts of its members."

CLliVKLAXI) AT ARLINGTON.

The morning papers tell us that Grover Cleveland actually attended the

services of decorating the graves of

Union soldiers at Arlington Heights.

Va., on Wednesday: that he did not

go a fishing, but that he actually crossed the Potomac and attended the sacred ceremonies of decorating the graves of the men who died that the nation over which he presides might live. This is the first time, I believe in his official life he. has shown a par ticle of respect to the memory of our nation dead.

Ordinarily we should not impugn the motives of a public man on occasions of this kind, but the attendance of Grover Cleveland at the services on Wednesday was such a piece of brazen hypocrisy and disgusting demago that it becomes an exception to the general rule. Let us look upon it however, with all the charity that is consistent with common sense, and if it can be figured out that he had a particle of sincerity of purpose in at lending the services, give him credit for it. Let us consider his attitude to ward the Union soldier from the time he was brought into prominency by the Democratic party. Even prior to that, when he. as an able bodied man could have served his country as a soldier but would not, either through a lack of patriotism, or a fear of rebel bullets, and hired a substitute whom he cowardly abandoned to die in a poor hou»e. From that day to this his public and private deeds as they relate to the Union soldier and his heirs, have been full of the renown of a copperhead.

As Mayor of P.uffalo, Y., lie vetoed the City Council's appropriation of S'iOO for Decoration Day expenses. As Governor of the State of New York le vetoed a bill passed by the legislature appropriating 810,000 for the erection of a monument to commemorate the fallen heroes of that State on the battlefield of Gettysburg: and he afterward vetoed an appropriation of 82,000 to the Secretary of State of New York to enable him to issue to each soldier ol that State a certificate showing that he had served in the war of the rebellion in defense of his country. He aft.'rward vetoed a bill passed by the legislature of New York making it a misdemeanor for any one not a member of the Grand Army of the Republic to wear a badge of that order.

When he became, by the misguided votes of the people, the President of the United States for his first term, and during that entire term the greater part of the ollicial labor which he performed was in preparing veto messages to pension bills, and giving vent to his hatred to the veterans of the Union army. 1 do not exaggerate when 1 say that the most painstaking ami labc iotis hours and days of his entire term during his first administration were spent in framing vetoes to pension bills, in finding some cause,and in framing language to express his personal hatred and yet such as to not call down upon his head the universal disgust of the Nation for his ingratitude and his bitterness. He vetoed 524 pension bills, which the representatives of the people had voted as just and meritorious. He worded his- veto messages, many of them, in language that was disgraceful to the office which he held.

During his present term he has been the Czar of his party, rather than the President of the United States. He let it be known as hisjjwill and determination that there should be no pension legislation during his second term that should receive his approval—and, so far, there has been'none. He called to his aid as Secretary of the Interior, a soldier hating rebel of Georgia, a rebel, born and bred, not a decent rebel, one who had fought for his sentiments and been whipped, but the son of a rebel, the notorious Hoke Smith, of Georgia, lie carefully sesected this man because of his wellknown hatred of the Union soldier and his opposition to pent-ions of disabled soldiers and their widows and orphans. If he had selected an exrebel General or any other Democrat in all the land he would have shown some consideration for the rights of soldiers to pensions, but Hoke Smith was his chosen tool and faithfully he has served his master in nullifying pension laws, stopping pensions, and reducing the rates of those who have been drawing. He further prepared for his work of malice and hatred against the soldiers by selecting a mugwump from Minnesota, by the name of Lochren for Commissioner of Pensions. With Hoke Smith his willing tool and Lochren his subservient stool pigeon, he has gratified his spirit of hatred by making war upon pensioners all over the land and his administration so far has accomplished nothing else.

This is the man who visited Arlington Heights on Wednesday to lend his presence to the ceremonies of decorating the soldiers' graves. We are told that he was accompanied by Hoke Smith, Secretary of the Interior, and W. Q. Gresliam, Secretary of State. God save the mark'. If there was ever a desecration of the grave of Union soldiers on Memorial Day, then that occasion was at Arlington Ilights on

Wednesday, to the bones

It must have been restful of our 16,000 comrades

IB

buried there. There sat the President of these I nited States, through three hours of the ceremony, with his tongue fastened to the roof of his mouth, as mute, and as mum. as he had been on former Memorial Day occasions, when he sat beside some watercourse hoping to catch a bite. There sat Hoke Smith, the rebel tool, whom the President had chosen to carry out his policy of hatred and venom against the soldiers of the Union. There was also \Y. q. Gresliam, a man who turned his back upon his comrades and his principles because he was not "big enough" to lead his own party, and because he wanted office which his party would not give him. This trio pretended to assist iit the decoration of the graves at Arlington .Heights. Not one of them uttered a word, but sat sullenly silent, doing penance through the ceremony simply for appearance sake.

If were better if they had gone to Hog Island a fishing. CHAS. M. KAVIS.

HE Democratic lies about the McKinley law having raised the tariff upon every article in the schedule are palpable. Still it may not be amiss to present in a nutshell some facts about the operation of the new tariff. The McKinley law has— Increased the duties on about 115 articles Reduced thedutles on about 1!M) articles And left it unchanged on -Jli) uriicies Increased our foreign commerce

In 11 months $ 74,708,090 Increased our tree imports ll'j!oi i'oHl Made the percentage of free imports ot nil out imports 55.75 Increased free imports over the last tariff, percent 2:2.4S Reduced the duties per capita trrjni. $:i.80 to*13.07 Reduced he total revenue ("tarilf taxes") in 12 months $ 41,:i!l(i,425

It has increased the cost of no necessity of life, and reduced the cost of many. Up to the time that the Democrats assumed control of the Government and threatened to smash the McKinley law it stimulated business, and thereby tended to make people busier and earnings surer, if not larger.

IN I O

(Ontario) Eeho: An import­

ant meeting of log .owners was held at Hay City, Mich., on Friday, May 12 to see if some agreement could not "be made with the Canadian Customs Department to withdraw its recent order enforcing the collection of duty on American booms and chains brought nto Canada for use in towing Canadian logs to the States. A committee was ippointed to proceed to Washington at once to lay the matter before the 1 reasurv Department. The committee epresents the leading lumber mauuacturers of the State.

W liile the Canadians tire at work colecting a duty on American booms and chains taken over there to bring their own logs into the United States the \meriean Congress is at work removtill duties from Canadian logs, conditionally. '1 he Democratic Congress doesn't, so much as to ask that the duty on chains and booms be removed on '.ondition that the duty be removed from.logs.

Soi niKKN .war claims are receiving more attention at the hands of the present Congress than the subject of pensions. Representative Burrows, of Michigan, has been examining the subject with care and the result of his investigation is that these claims reach the enormous aggregate of 8007,000,000! The bulk of these claims ere clearly fraudulent.

Dr. Tucker's Filthy Little Sheet. Such scurrilous statements as appeared in the Herald (Rev. Tucker's medium of misrepresentation) last week, would, twenty years ago, have been attributed to ignorance, but now no such excuse can be lawfully made.' We are driven to conclude that they emanate from a mind and heart controlled by a venomous spirit. "There is no command in tlie" Bible to be immersed,"' says the Herald. "Can any man forbid water that these should not be baptized which have received the Holy Ghost as well as me'.' And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.-' Acts 10-47.

To be baptized is to be immersed. Therefore there is a command in the Kible to be immersed. ••The Greek word translated into English, baptize means to sprinkle or to pour. The word ••baptize" is not translated. It is only anglicized. When translated into English it means to immerse and is never rendered to sprinkle or pour. The Greek word for sprinkling is raniiztr. and to pour ehro to immerse, hiijitize. "Baptism does not save the sinner, hence what is the use of laying so much stress on it." "The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us.'' Language of the Holy Spirit in 1 Pet., 3-21. "A relic of the past ages is a man who spends his time finding fault with Christian churches of which he is not a member." A relic of the great Apostasy is a man posing as a minister of the word of God, who spends his time trifling with the commands of Jesus Christ and persists in misrepresenting the people of God. '•Some people were greatly surprised when they learned through the Herald that it could not be proven that Christ was immersed." Some people were greatly surprised to see Dr. Tucker deny the word of-God. That says, "He was baptized of John in (us into) the Jordan." Mark 1-9. "Many people who believe in immersion don't seem to have any other religious experience to talk about. They have no use for Paul who wrote to the Romans, 'The spirit beareth witness with our spirit," etc. Many people who believe in themselves (their feelings) don't seein to have any other religious experience to talk about, they have no use for Paul in Romans, 6 1-4, "Therefore we are buried with him in baptism," nor Paul in Col. 2-12, "Buried

ra

with him in baptism wherein ye also are risen with him." "The Methodist and Presbyterian are the literal churches: a person may be baptized in these churches by sprinkling, by pouring or by immersion.''

Certainly, that is to say they are the literal Methodist and Presbyterian churches, and they stipulate the way a person can enter them but in in the kingdom of God or church of Christ: Christ, the head, stipulates the way, and he says: "Ye must be born of water," (John 3:5) in order to enter the vingdom of God, and the Holy Snirit teaches persons to -be "Buried wil-i God in baptism." See Rom. 0:1-4. That is God's way. not mail's way. "They (these churches) say read the Rible and then select the mode of Raptism that will suit you." Rut the minister of the gospel would say, read the Rible and do precisely what it says, and in the way it directs and you will be saved.

The Doctor finds in his pastoral work that some of his members (so he says) are being harmed by teaching on the subject of baptism. He promises them some good, wholesome Scriptural instructions on the subject. Good: now let the Doctor give them the word of God just as it is, on the subject. and how it will invigorate their thirsty souls. We suspect, and the Dr.'s language implies, that he has not been engaged in giving them Scriptural instruction on the subject heretofore. "The Doctor says he publishes the Herald to disseminate Methodist doctrine." lie could do a greater and grander work if he would devote it to the doctrine of Christ and His Apostles. "There are some who seem to think they are wiser than Luke and .John, who wrote the above words, for they deny that there, is a Holy Ghost. This blasphemy against the Holy Ghost will not be forgiven. Notwithstanding this, a company of ministers resolved that a mail should Vie expelled from their number because he taught that therj is a Holy Ghost."

If the lirst clause of the above paragraph was intended for the Christian church in this city, we will say that it is a wilful and malicious falsehood. If the latter clause referred to the resolutions recently adopted by the. Third District Convention in tlie Christian church in this city it is a malicious falsehood number two. "Some people make a great deal out of Matt. 3:16. 'Jesus went up out of the water,' but apo means from, etc."

Suppose it does, if the Doctor will read Mark 1:0, he will learn that the Saviour was baptized by John in (eisinto) Jordan, and straightway coming up out of the water, etc. Of course he had to be in tlie water—covered over with the water before he could come nutoi it

He says: "He stood on the shore and was sprinkled." "Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized of John in Jordan (Jordan is a river—a stream of water) and straightway com ing up out of the water," Mark 1:0 Which will you believe, Dr. Tucker or the word of God'?

The Doctor announces a sermon on "The Coming Man," and says "All will want to know if the coming man belie\es in -immersion. Of course he does if he is a Christian and believes the Rible. Rut if he is a Methodist after the style of tiie Doctor he believes in sprinkling and pouring.

A discerning public has already discovered that the Doctor is considerably irritated because the Christian church has receutly had such a large ingathering, and they also see that his reckless statements and assertions in the Herald are void of scriptural proof.
