WEDNESDAY. JUNE 15. 1892 VAN8LYKE. Kdltor. ' FOR PRESIDENT,' 8ENJAMIN HARRISON. • " i FOB VICE-PHE8IDENT, WHITELAW REID. / i. ̂ above named, the nominees of the Republican National Convention, held at Minneapolis last;week, are emphatically the people's candidates, and will be elect­ ed in November by rousing majorities. We shall have more to say in relation to the Convention and its nominees lata1. 10" On the Elgin Board of Trade Mon­ day 21,120 pounds were sold at 18% cants. 1ST The Minneapolis ticket is a winner, no matter who is nominated at Chicago or what deals the Democrats try to make with the alleged third party. 10* The Minneapolis platform is broad enough to hold every man who believes in the principles of the Republican party and every one of them will be found sup­ porting it, as they should be. I©" A line of whaleback steamers, which have proven such a success in the great lakes, is to be built for the ocean carry­ ing trade. This is another triumph for a distinctively American idea, which was at first laughed at by so-called experts. I^A farmer near Bloomington pro­ poses to make hard roads by simply hardening the substance of which the roads are originally composed. He, claims to have discovered some years ago a process by which common black soil may be burned hard or vetrified just as railroad ballast is made from gumbo and fire clay. He states that soil he has thus treated has formed the bed for a highway for a short distance at his home for many years, that it has proven to- have the highest excellence for that purpose. H^This is the way "Uncle Jerry" Busk answers an application made by an American who runs a stock farm in Can­ ada, for exceptions in the departmental regulations that would allow the stock raised by him to enter this country free of duty: "if Mr. Todd takes advantage of the cheap land and cheap labor to be found in English provinces, spending his money for the improvement of the com munity there located and paying taxes for the support of a foreign government, I do not see how he can expect an excep­ tion to be made in his favor so that the products of his farm can reach American markets duty free." ' The truth is that the contest for the supreme honor of nomination to the party of Lincoln, of Grant and of Gar­ field, is one of the best possible signs of that vital strength and energy which should and will enable the party to achieve success. "I love the noise of free nations," wrote De Tocqueville, that in­ comparable commentator on American institutions. The agitation at Minneap" olis last week in the Bepubiic&u party was that noise of free nations of which De Tocqueville spoke, and which no in­ telligent friend of free institutions regards with apprehension. The danger to a party, as to a state, is not in wholesome agitation, but in stagnancy and decay. 10" The people have not thorough con­ fidence in the political wisdom or leader­ ship of the men who, at Minneapolis, were responsible for the organized eflort to de­ feat the renomination of the president. Mr. Clarkson, for instance, assuming to direct the politics of Iowa, the staunchest strongest Republican state in the Union, has to explain how it is that Iowa has a Democratic governor. Mr. Foraker, who insisted that it was political wisdom for him to run again for Governor of Ohio, with the result o! electing a Democrat, a Democratic legislature and a Democrat to the U. S. senate, the state only being redeemed by the efforts of McKinley, who was a delegate for Harrison, certainly has not earned confidence as a leader. Quay, who tried to choke Delamater down the throats of the P^pnsylvania Republicans, and elected a Democratic governor in a state which has given eighty thousand Republican majority, cannot claim to have done the party a great service, and the loss of New York by fifty thousand Democratic majority while Mr. Piatt may not be responsible tor it, certainly does not prove that his wisdom as a leader is unimpeachable. Do these men think that their politics and judgment as leaders have been feo successful in their own states that the party in the nation should adopt them . without question ? FAIL TO DO OUR DUTY. Everybody has at times failed to do their duty by themselves. Hundreds of lady readers suffer from sick headache, nervousness, sleeplessness and female troubles. Let them follow the example of Mrs. H. Herbechter, Stevens Point, Wis., who tor five years suffered greatly from nervous prostration and sleepless­ ness, tried physicians and different medi­ cines without success. But one bottle of Dr. Miles' Nervine caused sound sleep every night and she is feeling like a new •person. Mrs. Elizabeth Wheeler, Lara­ mie city, Wyoming, who tritd all other remedies, declares that after three weeks am of the Nervine for headache, nervous prostration, etc., she was entirely re­ lieved.

KrtoT of th« NoralMW M Office*. ) 3r>si5PW w. Firm • The personal history of Gov. Fifcr, who baa recently reoelvml the honor of a reuomination. Is one In which every boy in Amorlca ought to take prldp, and exhibits the wonderful oppor­ tunities that this country offers to pluck, en­ ergy, perseverance and determination. The son of a poor bricklayer, he first comes to notice Vhen the war began by walking, barefooted, to ftloomington to enlist as a soldier in defense of Ins country. His army record is that of un­ daunted bravery, of crucl wounds, of terrible suffering, of unconquerablo spirit and of a re­ turn tothe front, where he served months after his time had expired. Returning from the war broken in health and with little means, he might readily have drifted With the masses and Sunk into obscurity. But the heroism of the boy Soldier was still with him and he set manfully •bout the great task of obtaining a collegiate education. By the most rigid economy, work­ ing industriously out of school hours and during vacation he succeeded in finishing a full class­ ical course. Graduating from a law school, he entered upon his chosen profession and proved to his doubting friends that he was possessed of narked ability both as a counselor and in the courts. Serving creditably as a member of the State senate, he came to be well known through­ out the state, and in 1888 was triumphantly elected as its chief magistrate. Of his four years' administration of the af­ fairs of this great state it can be said that so wisely, so conscientiously and so carefully, with such treat labor and profound Judgment, has the executive borne his part, that it will not suffer by comparison with any administra­ tion this state has ever had. Hostile 'criticism has been disarmed, and even party rancor and spite have found no vulnerable spot where the arrows of Slander t-uuiil find lodgement. Xio stands to-day In that high place where the light shows every defect, if there be any, a mark for open foe or secret enemy, in­ vulnerable, the peer of any executive in this great commonwealth of states, without a blemish or stain in his public or private life, honest, upright, true and pure, the soul of houor, the embodiment of chivalry, the posses­ sor of every generous and manly impulse that ennobles the heart and purifies the spirit, a brave, heroic, earnest, straightforward Chris­ tian gentleman, LYMAN R RAT. Lyman B. Bay, nominated for lieutenant gov­ ernor, took up his residence in Illinois in 1852. Ho was born in Vermont in 1831. When he came to Illinois he entered a dry-goods store in St Charles, and after remaining there three years went to Morris and embarked in business for himself, opening a dry-goods store. This proved successful move and he was able to retire a few years ago. His political career began in 1872, when he was elected to the lower house of the Twenty-eighth general assemblv, represent­ ing what is now the Seventeenth district. In 1882 he was sent to the senate by the people of his district and in 1888 the republican state con­ vention nominated him for lieutenant governor and he was elected. As the presiding officer in the state senate Mr. Ray has shown marked ability and tact and won the confidence and re­ spect of his political opponents as well as those allied with the farty of which he is a member. * ISAAC N. PEABSOH. Isaac N. Pearson, republican candidate for secretary of state, was born in Butler county, Pa., in 1843, and came to Illinois when eight years old with his mother, his father having died two years before, and lived with an uncle on a farm in Hancock county. His education was such as a country school at that time af­ forded! When thirteen years old he began work as a farm hand, attending school in the winter. Subsequently the family moved to Macomb, McDo/iough county, where young Pearson was employed on the streets, chopping wood, making/ gardens and working hard to earn money /enough to support his mother and himself. Atr nineteen he secured a position as office boy In the circuit clerk's office, where he remained tor four years. He was then employed in a bank,\and afterward as deputy circuit clerk. In 1872 he was elected circuit clerk of his county, and In 1876 was renominated by ao- clamation ana reelected by an increased major­ ity. In 18So he took employment in a bank, where he remained until 1882, when he was elected^ar member of the Thirty-.third general assembly. At this session he Introduced the original bill for the appointment of state inspec­ tors of coal mines out of which grew the pres­ ent law on the subject. In 1886 he was elected state senator, which office he resigned when nominated for the office of secretary of state in 1888, being elected by a plurality of 25,287, the largest given any candidate on the ticket, and 3,183 more than Presi dent Harrison's plurality in the state. He is a man of excellent business ability and of strict integrity. An investigation in 1886 of the ex-county officials of McDonough county, run­ ning back from that year to the establishment of the salary system, gave him an excellent rec­ ord, showing that he had accounted for every dollar due the county, after a thorough exami­ nation by a committee, every member of which was opposed to him politically.. Without posing as the "special champion of labor," he has al­ ways been the true friend of labor and laboring men. Having been reared to labor himself he can easily appreciate their necessities and sym­ pathize with their desires. Laws passed in their interests while he was in the legislature had his support and Influence and a number were introduced by him. As secretary of state he has carried out the same wise and Just pol­ icy. Laboring men and labor organizations have received recognition at his hands. Tho business of the office has largely increased dur­ ing his administration and all has been prompt­ ly and satisfactorily attended to. He h&8 gained popularity while in office and his name adds strength to the ticket The county clerks of this state and all other persons who have had business to do with the secretary's office, bear universal testimony that the office has never oeen Dctter administered and the state property in the secretary's cus­ tody never been better cared for. CHARLIS. W. PAVrr. Charles W. Pavey, renominated for auditor of public accounts, hails from Ohio. He was born in Highland county in 1838, and came to Illinois in i860, settling in Mercer county. The follow­ ing year he moved to Jefferson county. In 18® he joined the Eightieth Illinois infantry, being commissioned first lieutenant In Company E. At the battle of Perry ville he received a promo­ tion and took charge of a battery. He was se­ verely wounded at Sand mountain, and subse­ quently captured and confined In Libby prison and other southern prisons twenty-two months. After his release he joined his regiment and served until the close of the war. Since the war he has been a farmer and a merchant at Mount Vernon. He was internal revenue collector for the southern district of Illinois under President Arthur, and was nominated and elected auditor of public accounts In 18841 While conducting the affairs of his office with all the care and precision that would be given to a great busi­ ness establishment, he has, by his courtesy and fairness, won the confidence and respect of the general public who have had to do with his de­ partment. In fact, he is to-day one of the most popular officials who ever occupied a desk in the state capitoL GXOBGK W. PRINCE. George W. Prince, nominee for attorney gen­ eral, is thirty-eight years of age. He was born in Tazewell county, 111., March 4, 1854. His mother died while he was yet an infant His experience in youth was that usually allotted to farmers' boys--plowing, sowing and reaping In summer and autumn, and going to district school in winter. Up to the time of his father's death, which occurred in 1870, George remained on the farm of his stepmother's family In Knox county. He often felt the pinch of poverty, but this only spurred him to greater effort and am­ bition. He entered Knox college, and paid his wav through that Institution by teaching school in winter and working as janitor of the college at othef-times. He kept up with his classes, and was graduated with honor In 1878. In 1880 Mr. Prince began the practice of law, and one year later was elected city attorney of Galesburg. In 1884 he was made chairman of the Knox county republican central committee. In the famous congressional contest case be­ tween Gen. P. S. Post and N. E. Worthlngton, in 1886, the former, who was successful, was repre­ sented by Mr. Prince. Mr. Prince was elected as a republican to the Thirty-sixth and Thirty- seventh general assemblies, and took high rank as a member of the house. An able lawyer and a clean and honorable man, he is admirably equipped for the responsible position of attor­ ney general, and will prove a worths successor of the able gentleman who now holdV the posi­ tion. HENRT I* HEBTZ Henry L. Hertz, the republican candidate for State Treasurer, is a Scandinavian by birth, of German descent. His grandparents came from Bavaria and Hanover, and he was born in Co­ penhagen, Denmark, November 19, 1817. He took the degree of arts in 1866, and the following year the degree of philosophy at the University of Copenhagen. After having studied medicine for two years he came to the United Staies, and went at once to Chicago, where he has resided since I860. He filled several positions as clerk and at the time of the great Chicago fire, in 1871, he went to Dixon, in Lee county, where h« worked on a farm until County Clerk James A. Hawley employed him to assist in tho exten­ sion of taxes. In the spring of 1OT2 he •©turned to Chicago and filled different it tons as teUer and book! -- in o m lawwrtotFii ersfa or rrmt chr- cago. Subsequently he filled a position in the recorder's office and in the clerk's office of the criminal court In 1884 he was elected coroner of Cook county and was reelected in 1888 by over 11,000 Majority. Among the celebrated Inquests Mr. Hertz has conducted two of the most important ones, which have sent his name over the whole United States, are the anarchist inquest ana .the Cronin murder ease. EMKRT conn. Emery Cobb, nominated for trustee of the Champaign university, has been a trustee of tho university since Its foundation, and has had much to do with the finances of the institution. He is a native of New York state, and has llvod at Kankakee thirty-two years. He is president of the First national bank pt Kankakee, and has large agricultural Interests in that section. He is a married man and about fifty-five years oUL SOLON PHILBRICK. Solon Philbrick, nominated for trustee of the Champaign university, is a young lawyer at Champaign.

He was admitted to the bar in 1887, and elected city attorney of Champaign In the fol­ lowing year. He held the position two years, and Is at present the master In chancery of Champaifh county. ROBERT B. 8TINSOS. Robert B. Stinson, nominated for trustee of the Champaign university, is a native of Norrls- town, Pa., and a lineal descendant of Commo­ dore Porter of Pennsylvania.

Candidate for congressman at large from Illi­ nois. was born in Monroe, Monroe county, Mich., January 20, 1857; lived in boyhood oa his father's farm just outside of town; received his preliminary education in the high school in Monroe, and fitted for college at the Normal school in Ypsilantl; subsequently entered Michigan university at Ann Arbor, where he graduated; attended lectures in the law school there; took a course of law lectures in the Georgetown law college In Washington; began practice in Michigan and came to Chicago, Sep­ tember 1, 1879, where he. has been engaged in active law practice since; is now a member of the firm of Willlts. Robblns A Case; has al­ ways been very active in politics In Michigan before coming here and since his arrival here; was for several years chairman of the repub­ lican city central committee, and for one year, until he resigned, chairman of the republican permanent county organization; has never held public office; was married in 1884. Mr. Willlts is a fit representative of the met­ ropolitan city of Chicago, amply equipped in brain and brawn, of the highest culture, of pleasing address and manner. He is a stalwart young republican, and as-the candidate of the young American element of the party is enthusiastically welcomed by all classes His voice will be heard and his Influ­ ence felt in this campaign from Cairo to Dun- leith. RICHARD YATES. Richard Yates, candidate for congress­ man at large, was born at Jacksonville, 111., December 12, 1860. He was educa­ ted at Whipple academy and Illinois col­ lege, graduating In 1880 at the head of his class. He took the first prize in declamation, June, 1876; the first prize in oratory at Illinois college In June, 1879. In October 1879, he won first prize at Champaign over the champion orators of eight Illinois colleges and at Obertin, Q, won second honors in a contest between the prize orators of six states. He studied law at the Michigan university, Ann Arbor, and was admitted to the bar. In 1886 he became city attorney of Jacksonville, a city of 12,000 people, and served in that capacity until 1891. As chairman of the republican central com­ mittee of Jacksonville and later of the Young Men's Republican club, and for four years as secretary of the republican league of the state of Illinois, he has done milch service to the party. But his principal services to the party are em­ braced in the series of logical, convincing and eloquent speeches made to enthusiastic audi- 'ences in all of the northern states during the last two campaigns. His marked ability, his broad reasoning, his' high culture, hie finished delivery and his burn­ ing eloquence have made him widely sdught on all public occasions. At many conventions of Illinois editors, physicians, lawyers, teach­ ers, college students, odd fellows, masons, Knights of Pythias, Sons of Veterans and the G. A. R. he has been one of the principal speak­ ers. Mr. Yates Was many years an active member of the Illinois national guard and served during the East St Louis riots. He is a prominent Methodist and greatly interested in the Sunday- school work. He has a wife and a little girl baby. The young republicans are for him because of his young blood, and the old ones because of the old blood. His name will evoke at the same time the youthful vigor of tho party and an old- time enthusiasm. He Is not running on his name, although, as sftys, it will always be a proud pleasure to him to bear that name. He is a candidate because in the full strength of youthful manhood and activity he meets and fills the demand made by republicans, young and old, throughout the state, that some young­ er man must this year bo placed upon the ticket. This demand arises from the fact that the de­ mocracy are appealing to the youth of Illinois and claiming to be the young men's party, and are putting their younger men Into office. Mr. Yates enjoys fully the confidence of every young republican of Illinois. If, in addition, he occupies a warm spot in the heart of the ex-sol­ diers, colored men and old citizens, who all re­ member his father with iove and pride, he la certainly to be congratulated and not blamed. Free trade organs are extracting much innocent fun out of the reported 'destruction of an American tin plate works" at Philadelphia, and a conse­ quent "damage of 12,500." "Happily, says the Chicago Times, "the loss was fully covered by insurance, and the American tin plate works will rise again, phoenix-like, from the bushel or two of ashes which now marks their site." The real point of the joke lies in the fact that all this waste of demo­ cratic brain-power and printers' ink was inspired by the boiling-over of a grease- pot and the burning of one end of a shop-roof. The tin plate industry . is doing very well, thank you. Recently large mill was started in Balti more, covering half an acre of ground and employing 150 men, with a capacity of 1,300 boxes a week. The total capac­ ity of the twenty-six factories now run­ ning in this country is something like 2,850,000 boxes, and it will take some­ thing more than the boiling over of a grease pot to check,their growth. As the case now stands public senti­ ment is with the republican party on every vital issue now before the Amer­ ican people. 1Vill make the season, closing August 1st, at the stable of the undersigned, in McHenry.
