70 The Farmers Of STARK County and
others Interested,

II the readers of the DEMOCRAT and
Repository, particularly the farmers, have
followed our structures on what we de-
clared a spurious correspondence emana'
ting from those Interested in the manu-
facture of front cut machines, and have
attentively watched the tenor and drift
OF the letters which We have taken the
trouble to sift and ventilate, they have
found that the position taken by us as
to the paternity and general design Of
such so-alled correspondence was just
what We then called it and what WC
again declare it to be, u glaring fraud and
imposition attempted upon the intelli-
gence OF those whom 1t sought to reach,
and whose support il expected to secure
Our charges against this Pecksnilhan
outrage have not been denied and We
hold to the direct issue. II is no, sufficient
to say that "it don't make any difference
To us or anybody else" who this spurious
dodger is; such bravado poorly becomes
him who has not the manliness to come
forward and let his readers know who hc
is and where he writes from. II il il
supposed that these pdid advertisements,
represented us communications from cor.
respondents, are 10 carry conviction with
this scent and smell of deception hanging
about them, the author is widely mis-
taken, Us he can find by consulting any
intelligent farmer or by moderate at

have n natural repugnance for bush
whacker and we do not choose to soil
our respectability by any chance Of en-
counlcring blatherskite hiding himself
behind Zoar Station and sneaking out
under cover of Cowardly initials. The
difference it makes with the farmers, is
that their opinions as to his character
have grown into conviction. and they
Justly regard such attempts upon theil
credulity with an unfeigned and whole.
some disgust. This makes q pretty wide
difference, it is a lost confidence which
will require long and severe tests of hon,
esty to re-establish
In closing, we take occasion to thank
these farmers who have been pleased tC
commend what we have done in this
matter, and to say that however distaste.

innocent, cbldllke way, that he had five cents in

lad, produced five dollar bill aud laid 1t on the
counter, and said he'd bet that there wasn't a

the man, but It's the DEMOCRAT
Well ifip DEMOCRAT, II will cost three cents
but fIt'sA RepOsitoy It will cost Only two cents ;
that's all the difference II will make.

TAX PAYING

For the year ends June 20, 1875.
All tax payers, therefore, in Stark
county who wish to avoid the PEN
atty must pay prior to June 10th,
proximO. It should also be remem-
bered that all can not be aCOmmO-
dated on the same day-.that is,
provided all should put off paying
until the last day, It is much more
pleasant to come in when we are
not crowded and hurried, and when
we can wait on you promptly and
satisfactorily, Let all our friends
having taxes to pay remember
this, and come and pay their taxes
at once, so as to accommodate
themselves and us. We wish to do
everything satisfactorily and do
hope our friends, one and all, will
call right soon, 1t is very disagree
able to have a rush the last day or
two, for it may be impossible to
wait upon our friends within a rea-
sOnable time, Again we say, let
our tax paying friends bear all this
in mind.

Treasurer of Stark County.

day the burglar was captured and he proved to
be young man who represented himself to be a
son Ofa prominent business man of Canton, and
through earnest pleading and promise to reform,
induced the man from whom he had stolen the
money, to bring him to town, when he would re.
store the full amount. The man accordingly took
him iu buggy and drove to town. and the young
man directed him to drive up to the residence OF
Mr.. Shawacker, on East Tuscarawas street. where
he claimed he lived, and where he was to get the
money, The unsuspectng farmer did so, and
said he would wait in the buggy till the young
man would go into the house and return with the
money, but instead of going into the house, as
soon as he was out of the buggy he started up the
alley northward, and has not been seen since

sell & Cos shop, was discovered to be on fire.
The efforts of the neighbOTs, and the arrival of
the steamer and hose companies and S. availed
but little, and the house was destroyed. Nearly
all the goods on the ground floor were saved, but
all on the upper floor were lost The house was
insured and it was supposed by some of the
family that the fire was started by tramps, as two
of them had called AT the house about ten o'clock
and asked for something TO eat, but owing to the
lateness of the hour, were dismissed rather alb

a noise as of some one moving about the house
shortly before the fire was discovered, but upon
examination, 1t was made evident that the fire
originated from defective fue.
