THE WooLEN INTEREST.

The census of 1910 reported twenty>iouf
wooIen factories in this county that spun
yarn, and s, SOS, 269 yards of wooden cloth
woven in families. valued at 81 ,4l3, 900. In
1850 there were ! $50 wooden establishments
tina, employed 5000 persons, and annually
produced goods Of various textures valued
a; 81, 600, 600. In 1860 the wooden est,b.
lishments had increased to 2, 020, employ ing
5000 males and females and producing
goods to the vslus Of S67, 300, 900 annually.
Owing 70 the great demand Of wooden goods
to supply the army with blankets, clothing,
etc., in the rebellion, the WOODEN msnufsc-
tories in the United States increased nearly
one.half in ten years, and the census OF
1870 counted 81 600 persons q employed in
wooden factories, who annually produced
goods to the value Of sl77, 100000. With
the increase Of population the demand for
wooden fabrics continues about the same, and
there are at present time about the same
number OF mills doing about the same amount
OF business as in lS72-just before the inan-
cial panic commenced But with all the ma
tural facilities for the raising Of sheep. and
the manufacture Of wooden goods, the de-
mand for wool and wooden goods in this
country is far ahead Of the supply. In the
past forty-six years, or since 1888, the Uni
ted States have imported wool, either man
ufactured Or manufactured, to the value
Of 81. 2lo. 900. 900. For the pact four years
this country has imported wool and woolen
goods to the value lin the aggregate) Of
Sl70,oO0,0t0. while the expor, is but trife.
In 1875 the total duties on wool and wooden
textures amounted to $50, Oh Sc; and with
the exception Of four years prior to 1S4s,

The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1879-10-02

TIE Repository last week contained a
letter signed Samuel Beatty, declaring
his intention to support calico Charlie
and the Republican ticket This is really
what Mr.. Beatty has been doing gener-
ally for years. We are glad he has
come out, and hope he feels relieved.
He has been itching and hankering for
office, and has been souring with disap-
pOintment. OF course no one credits
Beatty with writing the letter bis name
is signed to. Since the death of his ia.
ther, old John Beatty, some two years
or so ago, who was ever the good citizen
and sound Democrat, and on whose farm
his only son now lives, we have been
quietly awaiting this splurge Of the dis

son. We could name score Of better
acquisitions to our side, right here in
Canton; but men of honest worth and
real value wish no parade. g .

The Washington Evening Star last
week published an interview with Sena-
ator Bruce, chairman of the Senate Com.
mittee to investigate the affairs of the
Freedmen's Bank, in which the Senator
is reported to have said, that inasmuch
as he was the only member of the COM
mittee at present in the city, he felt COD
strained to keep a paddock on his mouth;
but said he, "when we do make our re
port, there will be startling revelations
which l cannot speak ofnow. Now there
is one great trouble l find our experts
have in balancing the books, and that is,
just when they reach that point which

PENNSYLVANIA AND GEORGIA
TREASURY RINGS,

Republican papers make great noise
over the misdeeds of a couple Of Demo-
cratic officials in Georgia-the Controller
and State Treasurer, They allege their
conduct has been about as bad as that of
the Carpet-bag knaves. The rascality of
the carpet. .baggers, though, was condon.
ed and "vindicated" by the Republican
party, while the Democratic Legislature
of Georgia is "going for" these Demo-
cratic officials. The State Controller has
already been impeached and removed
from Office, and the Treasurer, if found
guilty, will share his fate, and then both
will be proceeded against criminally.
Rogues are to be found in all parties, but
the test Of political virtue is for party
to expose and punish it's own wrong do.

York, and is the method adopted in
Georgia. The Republicans as a rule
screen their knaves, because they are
generally influential men. This is what
they did for BabCoCk, Belknap and Rob.
eson, and more recently they have shown
this purpose in Pennsylvania in connec-
tion with the bribery proceedings of
Kemble, Petroff, Salter & Co., at Harris.

In the Republican State convention of
Pennsylvania, Representative Wolf Put
in plea for honest men in Office, and
denounced the corrupt proceedings of
last winter in the Pennsylvania Legisla-
ture but Mr.. Wolf was squelched. This
shows the difference between the public
sentiment of Republican Pennsylvania
and Democratic Georgia.
The Treasurer and Controller of Geor.

grew rich thereby The State did not
lose anything. The accounts are all
straight, The crime of the officials was
speculation with unexpended balances

the rule; but this has not hurt the Re-

ak The gentleman, and fair to look on
The Repository and Alliance re-
uie,u have been busy slandering Mr.,
Altekruse,5 although the Republican
papers OF Massillon have RETAINED
from this mean business, 80 far as Mr.
Altekruse is concerned. To show the
esteem in which Mr.. Altekruse is held
at Massillon, we may only mention that
he is now member of the Board Of Ed
ucation, elected thereto last spring.
For years Mr.. Altekruse has served as
chief of the fire department OF Massil'
Ion; and for five years in succession he
has been member of the Board OF
Equalization, appointed thereto by the
City Council. Mr.. Altekruse has also
served as a member of the City Council
of Massillon; has been elected three
times township clerk of Perry township
one time by 400 msjoTity, when some OF
the Democratic ticket was defeated. he
has also served term as Coroner Of the
county, refusing a second term.
The above shows conclusively that
Henry Altekmse commands the esteem
of his fellow citizens; that he stands
well with the community in which he
has spent his life, for he was born, and
grew up in the town of Massillon. A few
such facts as we give above is a complete
refutation Of all charges published by
interested journals.

KinIey introduced Blaine here as "the
next President?" Blaine has never sat-
isfactorily explained his packing COM
mittees when he was Speaker of the
House, in the interest of Credit Mobil-

Union Pacific company boughth his worth
less Fort Smith bonds, thus enabling the
said Blaine to realize from fifty to one
hundred thousand dollars. The witness
Mulligan before the committee Of Con"
gress in 1875, had Blaine's own letters,
proving the whole thing; but Blaine
called on him, got down on his knees, as
it we're, and begged him not to ruin his
family of six children, &C., and finally
got hold of the letters to look at them,
and kept them. 1t was this that caused

these comments on the refusal of the
Republican Police Board in New York,
to confirm the Democratic inspectors of

cuse for the refusal of the Republican

was not shadow of justification for a
refusal of the Democratic Commission

In other words, in but one of the FIVE
States that have held elections this year
has the Republican party held its own
as compared with 1875; in two Others,
where three years ago it had majority,
it is now in a minority of the popular
vote; in a fourth, where it still preserves
majority, that majority has been de-
creased, and in the fifth, where it was
already in hopeless minority, Its mi
nority is more hopeless than ever. Just
as we thought. -NeaU York World.
