WE WILL TRY AND FIX MATTERS

With a Committee of One!
And we Beg Leave to Report the following a.
the Result Of Our Deliberations;
TNHAT the main object Of the railroads
Il should be to carry the largest number of
people, both to aid the Centennial and to aid
the roads.
The population of the United States Is now
over forty three millions. What portion Of
that vast number will attend the
Centennials The people Of . this
very poor than those of any other country.
There are few rich who can 90 at any rate Of
fare, and there are many poor who can not go
ut all. The great body, however, composed Of
farmers, merchants and mechanics, can, and
generally will 60, at moderate rates OF fare.
gers, and who are now embodied In large So
cieties and organizations, would be disarmed
OF their jealousies, and doubtless attend in
large lunbers, il they found the policy Of roads
liberal and patriotic. There can be no cry OF
monopoly, when the railroads have come
within the limits Of . moderate profit, in order
that the people may 90 up to the
great National Festival-see and enjoy the
glorious results OF . hundred years of free
dom. Another. and more practical thing boz
lore us, is to consider in what manner and
with what objects these people are likely to
come. They will come from q quarters and
directions, and they will come with desire to
see other places and other objects than those Of
the Centennial. Every railroad in the country
will have something to do In the carriage Of
that vast caravan, which during the summer
Will be moving on to the Centennial. 1t be-
comes us, then, to harmonic as far as possible,
both tho wishes OF the people ana the mutual
interests uf the roads. We are convinced that
good policy indicates o reduction In the Cen
tennial round trip tickets, and complying with
the views OF the public,

GRIMES IS SQUIRE GRIMES
The Entire Township and City Tick
ct Elected by Booming Ma
jorities.
Our Old Rooster Crows Before Midnight
and Also in The Morning Too.

The election in Canton on Monday re-
suited in a Democratic sweep, except in
the strong Republican second ward,
where Mr., Joseph Weaver was elected
to the Council, and Mr.. Tuttle assessor.
The other wards and the township gave
the candidates on the Democratic ticket,
city and township, decided majorities.
We re-elect Esquire Grimes, our town
ship Trustees, clerk, treasurer, assessor
and three constables. On the city ticket
we get the Councilmen and Assessors in
the first, third and fourth wards by deci-
ded majorities. The average majority
in the township, including city, is about
900.
The various candidates and especial
friends were somewhat active, but of
course there was no such set-to as last
fall. The vote, however, was quite re-
spectacle, though not as full as last fall.
Our readers will find tabular statement
elsewhere in this paper. But few votes
were cast at the school election at the
high school building, Messrs. Tyler
and Lawrence were reelected without
opposition. It is proper to say there was
much freedom exercised in voting, and
in this the Democratic candidates did not
suffer.

The newspapers have recently been
publishing some stories in regard to the
will of Gen. Duncan Macarthur and a
suit brought in the United States Court,
which it is claimed will affect ex.Gov.
Aliens title to the celebrated Fruit Hill
farm. A correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Commercial who has been looking
up the matter. writes that Gov. Allen
had no interest directly or indirectly in
the estate until long. after the will had
been set aside and the property parti-
toned among the heirs. His interest is
also far less than that of several other
parties, and large part of his farm is
not at all involved In this suit. 1t is
apparently an impossibility for the Radi-
cal party to discover wherein the old
patriots hands have been soiled with
fraud, or his official garments stained
with corruption. We might have to call
upon the old sage yet for Presidential
stock.

SPEAKING o. the leaders of I'll e green
back party the Stark County Democrat
says: "They have lived long enough in
the world, and have studied history and
finance to so little purpose, that they
seem not to have discovered that specie
or its equivalent is the only honest and
safe money. The trouble is, that we
have had an irredeemabe and varying
currency, and hence values, labor and
honest business have been and are ruined
and crushed"
That sounds remarkable, coming from
the source that it does. Ii is not at all
strange that our Republican brethren
have been saying that McGregor holds
reasonable views on the finances. Truly
he seems to hold the same precise views
that our enemies are pledged to. He
talks of ''honest and safe" money as
though our greenbacks were not all that.
Also refers to currency as 'irredeemable
and varyinH," and as having crushed
and ruined business" as though the peo-
ple's money is worthless.-OhiO Patriot.
The peoples money 1t is, for our Republi-
can rulers made the greenbacks legal
tender in payment of debts and dues, ex-
cept duties on imports and paying the
principal and interest on the Public
Debt When greenbacks were worth 80
cents on the dollar, thirty-fve dollars
would buy one hundred greenback dol
lars, which hundred would be taken by
government at par for hundred dollar
bond. This bond is now to be paid in
gold, and the interest has been and is
paid semi-annually in gold. The money
lenders were cared for, the people swind-
led. This is the system of fraud that the
Patriot approves,
Worthless" is not our term. We said
our currency was irredeemable and vary
ing, rendering values, and labor, and
honest business uncertain and precari-
GUS; hence the lack of confidence and
general prostration.
We commend to our friend the Con-
stitution of the United States, And rew
Jackson's veto message of the U. S. Bank
and his Farewell Address, and almost
any standard work on Political Economy.
We still believe the blighting curse of
modern times is paper money, especially
in this country, disturbing property val
ues, and making the mass of mankind
the victims of the favored money lenders.

SANFRACISCO.
Extensive Customs Frauds.

San Franciso, April The Statement
is authorized. on semi-oflicial authority,
that frauds on customs amounting to
from five to seven million dollars per
year have been perpetrated here. A
large proportion oi.smuggling is by way
of Panama, dutiable merchandise being
ostensibly shipped from here to New
York and vice versa, but on the arrival
of the steamer at Penam9, other packages
are substituted containing goods ans
wering the description in the manifesto.
The informant also states that large
amounts Of Mexican wool enters the
country free from duty, being landed on
Catalina Island, off the southern coast,
where there is fine harbor, and no Gus
toms officer. 1t is thence shipped here
as the product Of the island. He estima
tes that by these and other means the
government is annually deirauded ofnear-
ly fifty per cent Of revenue.

The Repository approves the Sherman
sham, and we presume reflects the views
of Maj. M'Kinley. Where Judge Frease
stands on the question we do not know
--Dem0crat.
The REPOSITORY stands on the Repub
lican platform on the question of resump-
ton. 1t has never consulted Maj. Nc
Kinley, nor Judge Frease, nor any other
man, as to the opinion it utters, but has
long continued, we'll defined ideas based
upon study and thought upon this ques
ton of currency. Now, will the Dem0
crat tell us and its readers if it is in ia
vor of resumption, and if so, when2-
Shall we resume in four years or in ten
years? In all previous suspensions of
specie payment in this country and in
Europe, the government has fixed time
for resumption. We are simply follow
ing precedent. Can we resume except
by fixed time ?-RePOSttO,y.
Horace Greeley, our candidate for
President four years ago, said, "the way
to resume is to resume" D."
Shermans sham is, to PRETEND you are
going to resume, and the effect Of it is to
embarrass business and trade.
The Cleveland Leadey and many other
leading Republican journals admit now
that the Sherman Resumption Act is de.
fective-in fact sham, which it is.
The party in power, by their evil leg
islation, tending to extravaganza and
corruption, have got the country into its
present deplorable condition.
They still maintain they are skilled
doctors in government and finance, and
are competent for the case. The people
begin to think these political leaders
have had abundant opportunity to make
this manifest. Not belonging to the
same school, our neighbor has no right
to put queries to us now, as they are still
in power. We also have "well defined
ideas, based" upon the Constitution, upon
history, on dear bought experience.
Can our neighbor tell us of rulers any.
where, at any period, who were mean
enough to flood their country with paper
promises to pay, and then refuse to take
them for government dues And COM
pei their soldiers, sailors, pensioners and
people generally to receive them at par !?
Again, what has the party in power
been about these long years they have
been in power2 Their policy brought
suspension and business disaster instead
of resumption and solid prosperity. Pru
dent and sagacious craftsmanship pre-
vents these calamities by righteous laws
and economic rule. When they came
into power in 1861 they found the gov
ernment comparatively out of debt, hav-
ing been run for years Consttutionally
and economically, collectinga all its reve-
nues in specie and paying nothing else.
These bastard Republican statesmen
find it difficult to return to proper 6nan-
cial condition-dificul to avoid the con-
sequences oftheir own errors and wrongs.
Truly, one ounce OF preventive is better
than pound of cure.
Our neighbor is so much of a Solo
mon in wisdom, that he does not conde-
scend to consult Mckinley or Frease,
and hence cannot say where these gen.
tlemen stand as to the Sherman Re-
sumption sham of last winter, We may
all be wiser five live long enough.

"THE corruption of the administration
has been exposed in every direction the
low tone of political honor and of pub
lie morality that has prevailed in official
Republican service, has everywhere
aroused the apprehensions of the friends
of free government, and has startled
and alarmed the honest masses of the
Republican party."--GeO. w. Curtis,
editor Of Ha,4er'S Weekly, IN Nev York

Will our neighbor of the Repository
endorse the foregoing? Is it true or un-
true! If true, should the people con-
tinue such party in power? Let us

agents, do not put the Indians in worse

ed $2,95 each, while under our system
each Indian costs $50. He favored the
kind and peaceful policy that old Rome
pursued. He rather favored an indepen-
