DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.
Grovcr Cleveland for President; Allan
- -G. Thurman for Vice-President.
The St. Louis Convention doubtless
voiced the sentiment of the entire party
when they nominated the above ticket.
Perhaps no greater unanimity has
marked the history of the democratic
party than this convention, which
amounted to enthasiasra. They have
evidently put forth their strongest men
nd around these standard bearers, the
entire strength of the party will cen
tralize aud fosseliza. Cleveland has
made a good record, -and his tariff mes
sage is the watchword of the party,
and on this line they propose to "fight
it out, if it takes all summer" and fall
too. Thurman is the "noblest Roman
of them all;" "no blot on his name, no
spot on his fame." He is a tower of
strength.
The following is a summary of the
platform: It renews the pledge of its
fidelity to the Democratic faith, and
reaffirms the platform adopted by its
representatives in tie convention of
J8S4, and endorses the views expressed
y President Cleveland in Ms last earn
est message to Congress as a correct
interpretation of that platform upon
the question of tariff reduction, and
also endorses the efforts of our demo
cratic representatives in Congress to se
cure the reduction of excessive taxa
tion. Chief among its principles of
party faith are the maintenance of an
indissoluble union ctf free and inde
structible states, now abont to enter
upon its second century of unexampled
progress, and knowte-otion to a plan
f government regulated fcy a written
constitution strictly specifying every
granted power, and expressly reserving
to the states or people the entire un
granted residue of power. Tlie plat
form encourages jealous popular viji
lance, directed to .all who have been
chosen for brief terms to enact and ex
cute laws, and charged with the duty
of preserving peace, ensuring eqnality
and establishing justice.
PROHIBITION CANDIDATES.
Gen. Clinton B. Fiske, for President.
John A. Brooks, for Vice-President.
This is the unanimous clvciee of the
1,000 delegates at Indianapolis. Fiske
is a self-made man, who got his educa
tion as a boy by the firelight of a Mich
igan home, without a teacher. He be
came a successful business man, and
was one of the citizen soldiers of the
war, retiring from the eoafiiet as a
brigadier general. He spent great ef
fort after the war in assisting the South,
"both white and blaek, in education
the renowned Fiske University being
one result of his labors.
He is one of the most delightful of
conversationalists and an unrivaled
maker of happy impromptu speeches.
Dr. Brooks, of Missouri, was a con
federate soldier during the war. Noth-iesce
Ing could be a better exemplification of
the spirit and purpose of the Prohibi
tion party than the selection of a Con
federate and Union soldier on the same
ticket. Brooks represents the thous
ands of those who, once in arms, are
now glad that their arms were broken.
A loyal citizen, who frankly admits
that he was wrong, he accepts in good
faith the results of the war by taking
hold of the duties of this late day and
serving the country whose worth he
learned through battle.
JtEP VBIjICAN CON VENTION.
The National Republican Convention
meets in Chicago on the 19th of this
month. Great enthusiaism prevails
and doubtless harmony will mark the
entire proceedings. The victory in
Oregon has flushed the party with new
impetuous and a vigorous and deter
mined effort will be made to regain the
control of the government. It is to be
hoped that noue but the very best men
will be selected, true and tried. We
note with pride and honor to our coun
try, the disposition to forget the bick
erings aud animosities of the past, and
, iu the living issues of the present to
aim for the best men and the best meas
ures for our common country.
The sears of war have been healed
by time and nature, and all lovers of
our common country will gladly greet
the dawning of a happier day. While
peace sheds her gentle blessing now,
like flowers above the warrior's graves,
let it renew more than ever our love
and veneration for those who gave
their lives that such a peace might be
possible. Whether they fell amid the
clang of battle, drooped away iu the
living deaths of fetid prison pens, or
Were laid to rest by loving hands f
friends and kindred, whether in name
less graves they sleep or underneath
the sculptured shaft, a re-united na
tion breathes to-day, a benediction on
their memory.
Not there, but risen, redeemed they go
Where Hit the paths are sweet with Bowers;
They fought to give us peace, and lo!
They gained a better peace than ours.
A Girl's Composition Boys.
Boys are men that have not got as
big as their papas, and girls is j-oung
women that will be ladies after while.
.... Man was made before -woman.
When God looked at Adam he
said to himself: "Well, I guess I can
do better than that if I try again." and
then he made Eve. God liked Eve so
much better than he did Adam that
there has been more women than men
in the world ever since. . . . Boys
are a trouble. They are wearing on
everything but soap. . . . If I had
Biy way half the boys in the world
would be little girls and the other half
little dolls. . . . My papa is so nice
that I guess he was a little girl when
s Vk'tw a little boy.
W.C.T.U. AND SUNDAY
COLUMN.
lPcace on Earth and
Men."
Good init to
There is a growing disposition among
business men to employ women as
book-keepers, cashiers and confidential
clerks. This step in the direction of
right is the result of man's lessening
confidence in the integrity of his own
sex. That lie has just cause for this
doubt is manifest to nil w ho have'Jiot'
ed the almost daily exodus of default
ing business managers, cashiers and
other trusted ngcuts to that congenial
clime of rogues, the Domiuion of Can
ada. - -
Until very recently woman J. was
thought incompetent to perform any
service but such as led to the school
room, the nursery, or the kitchen, aud
whenever she had the temerity to ven
ture into the lecture field or essay a
profession, she was proclaimed a "short
hair" by the men, and labeled an im
pudent inirtx by the women, who, fool
ish creature s:$fi$ie? fatidble ef
forts th"c debasement of their sex;;. '
A true woman's ambition in life is to
maintain a character - above reproach,
aud that noble desire" preserves' her
true not only to her domestic allegi
ance, but to the interest cf her employ
er, should she have one. Do you ever
hear of a woman cashier absconding
with funds of a firm? or of a woman
bookkeeper making false entries? No!
Womau is above sueh base and dishon
orable acts, having never indulged in
poker, faro or futures with a forced loan
from the safe of her employer."
Methodist in Council.
The Quadrennial Methodist Confer
ence now in session in New York city,
is a notable gathering because it repre
sents the largest church in the United
States, and also because of the grave
questions discussed and settled, at least
for a term of years.
In another sense, Methodists would
deem the Conference of great impor
tance, for it elects five new bishops,
and it is said by those in the inner cir
cle, that political methods of wire
working, are not unknown by the can
didates, and their friends, and natur
ally the fear arises in observers, that
the emoluments of the bishopric have
an influence on ministerial minds, as
well as tbe honors and labors to be con
sidered.
One woald expect to find composing
this August assembly of one of the
leading and most progressive churches
in onr country, men of broad views,
true justice, far seeing, and able to
comprehend "the signs of the times."
and realize as a noted man lias said,
that 4'fbis is woman's century." And
this is true in regard to many of them
but the debate on the question of ad
mitting women as delegates to the Con
vtntion for the first time, brought to
view in some men, a narrow mindid
envious spirit, the opposite of Christ
like; notably the editor of the New
York Advocate, Dr. Buckley. But the
arguments by some of the leading
thinkers of our country, in favor of
their admission were grand, and incon
trovertible.
The question was finally referred
back to the annual Conferences to de
cide, by giving all members a chance
to vote on the subject, when it will be
brought before the next Conference
four years hence for decision and no
one can doubt who remembers the long
contest some years ago, over the admis
sion of laymen, what the final issue
will be.
In the meantime we can fully acqui-
n h views expressed in a late
! editorial in the Chicago Union Signal,
which we quote.
E. E. P.
What to Teach Onr Daughters.
Teach her to say "NO," and mean it,
or "YES," and stick to it.
Teach her to have nothing to do with
intemperate or dissolute young men.
Teach her the important truism.
That the more she lives within her in
come, the more she will save and the
further she will get away from the
poorhouse.
Teach her that a good, steady, church
going mechanic, farmer, clerk or teach
er, without a cent, is worth more than
forty loafers or not -producers in broad
cloth. Teach her to embrace every opportu
nity for reading, and to select such of
those books and periodicals as will give
the most useful and practical informa
tion in order to make the best progress
in earlier as well as later home and
school life.
When S. T. Cooleridge was asked,
Can you prove the truth of Christi
anity? he answered, "Yes, try it." "If
any man will do his will, he shall
know of the doctrine whether it be of
God."
When a man has honestly and thor
oughly tried religion and found it
worthless, let him discard it; Such a
man has nowhere been found.
What We eed.
We need a creamery.
We need a cannery.
We need a tannery.
We need to have our wheat manu
factured into flour at home, instead of
going to Albany, Brownsville or any
other place.
Lebanon flour is good.
Patronize home industry.
We need a large sash and door fac
tory. It is useless to send olf large
sums of money for that which we can
make at home.
We need more enterprise.
Citizens of Lebanon, brush off that
moss that is starting on j our backs; get
the dust out of your eyes, that you may
see the era of prosperity that is even
now nigh unto your doors waiting for
you to put forth your hand and grasp
it.
We need some enterprising citizens
to put out five acres or more of straw
ben ies, this summer, and then to at
tend to them properly, and we will
guarantee a handsome return. We
have plenty of soil that is well adapted
to berries of all kinds.
We need 1,000 new subscribers to the
Lebau'.n Exi-kess,

Ayer'a Hair Vigor keeps tbe hair soft
and pliant, imparts to it the lustre and
freshness of youth, causes it to grow
luxuriantly, eradicates Dandruff, cures
all scalp diseases, and is the most clean
ly of all hair preparations.
AVCC'e Ilair Vigor has given me
til O perfect satisfaction. I was
nearly bald for six years, during which
time I used many hair preparations, but
without success. Indeed, what Uttla
hair I had was growing thinner, until
I tried Ayer's Hair Viebr. I used two
bottles of the Vior, and my heaxl is now
well covered with a new growth of hair.
