THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.

Ex-Senator Thurman Addresses an Immense Crowd at Kenton. Kenton (Ohio) Special. Allen G. Thurman addressed an immense mass-meeting to-day in this place. The ax-senator has been confined to his room for a month with rheumatism, bui said he could not resist the call of the Democracy to once more, before crossing the dark river, speak for the cause he loved so well. H,s reference to his old age and to his last effort for his party was pathetic. The enthusiasm of the audience, and especially that of the Thurman Club, of Columbus, >n organization of yonng men, seemed to make a new man of him, and he delivered a grand speech in spite of his infirmaties. Hejsp. ke of the unpatriotic action of the Republican parly in regard to sectionalism with deep feeling. He referred to the demand for tariff reform, and appealed to the people to stand by the Constitution. His referenced the President was as follows, and was greeted wit l i tumultuous applause: “I want so speak of a man I know - Grover Cleveland. I have lived through a good many Presidential terms. I have known several Presidents personally. I have read the history wf all the administrations. I say upou my honor as a man bound to tell you the truth as faithfully as ever man told the truth, that a morelhonest, braver, truer man n c ver filled the Presidential chair. I say he is an honest, plain man, of more ability than the people generally think. He has that supreme faculty, common sense. If he is not a level-headed, honest ma ,lam no judge of men. He grows in the popular favor every day, and when the four years of his administration are at an end the people will say: ‘You have done well. You may take your seat for another four years.’ In conclusion, Judge Ihurman said: ‘I cam e in this beautiful weather to talk with you and um feeling much better than I have for a year. The best medicine I can find is attending a Democratic meeting. I have been confined to my room almost a month, but as I came up here I felt better every mile. Probably this is the last speech I shall ever make. I don’t know, I may be wandering around on the banks of the Styx talking Democracy. I’m sure [ shall never talk any+hing else. As my parting words I beseech you to stand by the principles laid down by Jefferson under which this government has become the greatest, best and most lovable on +he face of the earth. Be "hankful for such a government, and when you sift it down you will find every principle that has contributed to your happiness is a principle of the Democratic party.” Thos. E. Powell followed Judge Thurman im a spoech which was received with much enthusiasm. W. H. Crane, of Texas, spo-eat night to a large audience. It was a great day for the Ohio Democracy, and will do much good in the clese fight against Foraker. Judge Thurman and Gen. Powell were escorted to their respective homes, Columbus and Delaware, by the Thurman Club.

Music in the Family.— An excellent clergyman,possessing much knowledge of human nature, instructed his large family of daughters in the ordinary practice of music, They were all observed to be amiable and happy. A frier d inquired if there was any secret in the mode of education. He replied, “When anything disturbs their tempers I say to them, ‘Sing;’ and if i hear them speaking against any person I call them to sing to me; and they sing away all their causes of discontent and every disposition to scandal.” Such a use of thife accomplishment might seem to fit a family for the company of angels; young voices around the domestic altar, breathing sacred music at morning and evming devotions, are a sweet and touching accompanimept.—Mrs. Sigourney.

SOME REASONS WHY

The Democratic Candidate for Governor of Massachusetts Should he Elected. An Eloquent Speech by Hon. C. C. Matson Advocating the Cause of Hon, H. B. Lovfbing. At the rec;nt great Democratic demonstration in Boston, the Hon. Oourtland C. Matson, of Indiana, who was enthusiastically received, spoke as follows: “A week ago today while I vas in Washington, a summons reached me from my friend, and for four years my colleague upon the committee in the House of Representatives, and for many years my comrade in arms —Henry B. Lovering (cheers) — to come over into Macedonia and help him. I could not hesitate.— I replied instantly tha| I would come. I wish I knew how to emplusize the pleasure I feel in responding to his wish, and to express my high appreciation of the honor done me [A voice; We respect you tor it. J I can best perform this pleasing task by briefly and rapidly pointing out why I believe this man ought to be selected by the people of this commonwealth to fill its next gubernatorial term. The first of all reasons is that he is a .UGmocr'-t (applause) and carries the standard of that glorious old party in this contest, and because now and for many years he has maintained and upheld Democratic principles. I will not offend your intelligence by intimating that the contest in this State this year is to have any determining effect upon the great Firesid ntial struggle of 1888. All good men believe that the intervening year, the coming sess ; on of Congress and the conventions held by the great parties will be fruitful of national issues upon whieh that great battle will be fought. Ido not hesitate to say that in all of our elections in the States Democracy is to some extent on trial, and that the question of our administration of national affairs goes to make, up local issu s. Do you remember in 1884 what direful predictions our Republican friends made? They said that if the Democratic party was to have power the business of the country would be disturbed, values would go down, the credit of the government would be wrecked, and utier demoralization of all our great industries was sure to follow. How have these predictions been fulfilled? None of the results promised hare taken place. In shame our Republican friends confess their mistake, and admit that the man that they were pleased in 1884 to describe as a mere sheriff has shown executive capacity, surpassed by none, and equalled by few of his great predecessors in office [Applause.] Labor is better rewarded and better employed. Values have been maintained.— The country has increased rapidly in wealth. No mills have stopped, no banks have failed and no savings banks have been placed in the hands of receivers. The whole people of the country for two years past have enjoyed a season of contentment and solid prosperity that has not been equalled in the past thirty years. [Appbuse.] And this, in spite of laws enacted by the Republicans when they had bad full control under w ich more than $100,000,000 were taken from the pockets of the people 'by unnecessary taxation. [Applause.] They said, in 1884, that the rights of the people would be imperilled, and that the southern confederacy would be again in the saddle, and that large claims growing out of the c’vil war would have to be paid. The fact is that all the rights guar-, ranteed by the constitution and laws have been sacredly preserved. A larger percentage of colored Democrats have been appointed than ever before among the colored Republicans. [Applause]. War
