WITHIN one year the bonded and
floating debt,of New York has increased
twelve millions of dollars, A majority
of the voters of that city are not tax
payers. They are. blind Instruments OF
John Kelly and the ring that surrounds
him. Whether the taxes are increased or
not, whether the debt is one million or a
hundred millions, is a matter of perfect
indi difterence to them. No economy is
made in the annual expenditure; debt
and taxes are always increasi ng, and the
successors of Tweed and the inheritOrs
of his political morals and principles are
every year gro wing richer and richer,
New York is little else than a stranded
ship abandoned to the wreckers. NUM-
cipal government generally in the United
States seems to have fallen into discredlt

Now we should hike to have the opin'

the condition of Philadelphiafrom which
so many manufacturers have been driven
to reusove their works by the enormous
taxes laid upon every body there. p.

of in the county where it was commen-
ced, and then FIVE years more before It is
heard and decided in the Supreme Court.
BY this delay justice is often denied liti-
gants, often working bankruptcy even
when they are successful. One more obs
lection to our present system is the COM
plant made by witnesses attending court,
They are often compelled to attend court
three or four days before the case for
which their testimony is required is
ready to be heard. The fees these wit
nesses receive is scarcely sufficient to
pay their actual expenses, besides the
loss of their time from their employment
or business. Now if WITNESSES must at
tend court the shorter the time the better
for them, and also for the parties litiga-
ting. BY keeping the court always open
there would not be at any particular time
a rush of business, and parties and wit
nesses might reasonably expect to have
the case disposed of on the day it was
set for trial. This is one of the strongest
points in favor of the proposed amend-
ment. 1t facilitates business, keeps cases
from becoming stale, gives the suiIors
and witnesses a chance for their rights
and their interests, and makes judges
who are paid by the year work year
for that pay.

THE GAS QUESTION.

1t will be seen, by reference to another
column, that the Canton Gas Company
has quite generously reduced the price of
Gas, of their own accord, to $3.50 per
thousand cubic feet, reckoning from Oc-
tober 1st This action precedes any ac-
ton of our City Council in the premises,
The committee on Gas has not yet re-
ported to the City Council, but will soon.
What they will recommend is, of course,
not known, but this action of the Gas
Company will, we think, assist much in
the adjustment of all points to be consid-
cred in forming new contract
We repeat what we said in our article
last week, that this matter ought to be
settled and adjusted for considerable
term Of years, particularly at this low
price, now proposed by the compBny. In
putting the price of gas the same to the
city'as to the private consumer, certainly
must meet the approval of all fair per-
sons.
There is no doubt the quality of the
gas furnished by our gas company is of
a superior character, and it would be well
for the Council to accept the proposition
of the company, the company agreeing to
furnish gas of the same Illuminating
power.

MESSRS. Mckinley and Folger adj

dent.
We understand Mr.. Folger's speech
did not take with the miners. Besides,
the miners know that Johnson Sherrick
was one of their staunch and noble
friends in the Legislature that passed
the Mine Ventilation Act and which re-
qmred the appointment by the Cover
nor, of State Inspector of Mines, which
Mr.. Roy SO capably fills. Mr., Sherrick
also helped to defeat the effort of the late
Republican Legislature to repeal this
humanitarian law
The miners are thoroughly posted on
all this, and they know the truth whereof
we speak. OF course, Major Mckinley
and Mr.. Folger made no reference to
this-we presume.

WE call attention to an article in this
paper, from Thomas Hays, Esq, of Car
rollton, in favor of the amendment to our
State Constitution, providing for change
in the Judiciary of the State. The
amendment is to be voted on at the next
election. Our readers are aware that
the Probate Court is to be abolished, and
the entire business to be thrown upon
the Common Pleas. This feature may be
popular in counties as small as Carroll,
but does not take in Stark. By this ar
rangement Carroll would get Common
Pleas Judge of her own, and is no doubt
a proper consideration. In Stark, how
ever, we do not favor the idea of abolish
ing the Probate Office, as our Common
Pleas Court has now enough to do.

in the way of wholesale robbery and cor.

costing about a million of dollars. Six
Republican Senators got $4,000 each.
Their precious names are Norris, Wins
low, William Woodin, James Wood, Geo.
Bowen and Theodore L. Manner. Some
of these wanted $4,000. One man only
in the Senate voted against the Tweed
charter. Mr.. Genet, Democrat. He was

him and Woodin and other Republicans
named, at $4,000 each. Some members
got five, some ten thousand, and so on.

Mr.. ]. N. RAMSEY Of Alliance, radical
candidate for Auditor, is so anxious to
be elected, that he has, we understand,
hired toodles running the county in his
behalf. One of them, named Evans,
spent last week among the miners, on
the west side of the county, and worked
hard, claiming Mr.. Ramsey was Welch-
man among other things, We under
stand his father was no Welchman, but
his mother may have been. Among the
Odd Fellow miners this lark, Evans,
claimed, too, that Ramsey was Welch
Odd Fellow-odd enough, to be sure.
Well, there are many strange feathered
birds, and many that Chirp peculiar
strains but the last bird of plumage we
have heard who can sing Welch songs IS
Mr.. Ramsey. 1t may be that at a late
successful seance the spirits suggested to
their friend Ramsey tosend Evans among
the miners. The miners, as a class, have
too much intelligence and manhood to
be deceived by such frauds and silly
yarns,

Didn't you; and, don't you favor Civ

1t is the party of force, of a fraudulent
President. Workingmen and business
men ought now to have realizing sense
of the beauties of their policy in mana
ging public affairs. If they have not
enough of it yet, they ought to continue
to vote with the party that brings about
such results.
The late railway strikes and riots; the
miners strikes about Massillon and else
where, were not near so pleasant for the
MdebeHdeNt, and such to contemplate
and enjoy. When it was their mob and
a political opponent the victim, it was so
enjoyable! But when they and theirs
were in danger it was otherwise! 1t does
make difference! At Akron, in 1861,
their mob did put VIM. F. Hess in the
canal, and kept him there for some time,
abusing the man and assaulting him
shamefully. Ofcourse the hdebeadent
and that ilk enjoyed that hugely, and

skunks would have done again if they
