Iow they are beginning to realize
hat they will profit by planting
ore ground to potatoes iinstead of
cheat. 'Thlere is at all times a steady
emaud for the tubers and they arc

by at least from 100i.000I.000 to 150.0001.000
bushels, anid it is estimnatedl that the aggre
gate yield in the South will be from i00.000IO
000 to 650.000.0)00 bushels of corn, worth to
that section at least $10l0.000.000. This is

CAMPBELL AND'
SOUND MOE8.
0111 DEMOCRATIC CONVENTON
ENDORSE$ SOUND MONEY.
A Strong Position Taken on the Mon
roe Doctrine. Campbell Negn
inated for Governor.
In spite of James E. Campbell's earnest
and repeated protest that his friends must
not nominate him as the Democratic candi
date for Governor of Ohio, as he could not
make the race for various reasons, the ex
Governor was put at the head of the ticket
by acelamation against his will on Wednes
day by the 800 delegates to the Ohio State
convention at Springfield. The nomination
was forced upon the Butler county man
whil' he was in the midst of a speech and in
the avt of presenting the name of Judge
PIe,"k. of Cineinnatti, for the same honor.
Then eane a graceful acceptance and the
rest of the ticket was made up on the acel4
mationi ojrder. Senator Brice won his point
of having only a reaflirmation of the na
tional currency plank inserted in the plat
form, on this "sound money" winning by
the sound majority of 255 when the free sil
ver amendmeut to the platform was put to
th econ vention.

After the usual preliminary business was
lisp;ed-i of. Frank - Burd. the free trade
-iptle of Toledo, pien-enied the majority
re-ort of tte comtuittee on resolutions. It
reads:

whcjh had prepared and finally produced
the pani. of 1893. we insist that it i entitled
to fle thanks of the people for the courago
with which it has attacked and repealed
tho~s laws:
We re-affirmn the following portion of the.
s'venii pliank of the last Nationald Demo
cratie Con!vention:
"W hold to the~ use of both gold and
silver as the .standard money of the country,

The remimii- oft the platform relates to

A roll cai . demanlded on the adoption
of the miinority r-eport. The vote was a
llfeat for the free silver men-279 to 525.

that Grover Cle'velanld would enforce it.
yue re!solutioni wa put and carried with a
i" latform. with its sound money plank,
was~ adopted byv a viva voice vote, a hundred
>r iimore delegates yelling '"no."
As soon as nominations were declared ex
G- vernor Campbell was again on his chair.
Cries of "Campbell for Governor" drowned
his voice for a couple of minutes. Finally
scuring silenee he said that there was a
mi:.in before the Democratic party of the
State this fall: that of achieving a victory
which should electrify the whole country.
At this point the ex-Governor gave- ex-State
Cairman Norton, of Tiffin, permissIon to
iterrupt him, and Norton proceeded to
m've that Campbell be nominated for Gove
ernor by acclamation.
