DAY by day and hour by hour the fact

is put up. The party can not afford to

when such a person as Mr.. Mcclure is
under consideration. SOME NEW MAN,
SOME MAN acceptable to the whole dis
trict, should be taken up. The boss and

EX-SENATOR DORSEY threatens to sue
prominent newspapers for libel. We
hope he will; and make no delay about
it. This Star Route plunderer is the
man that President Arthur and others
cOmplimented with supper at Del
mOnicO's in New York in honor of having
saved his party in 1880 by carrying In
diana with - SOAP" as President
Arthur said in his speech on that Occa-
sion. He expects to save himself in the
present criminal prosecutions by means
of - SOAP" The Star Route swindles
furnished him few millions of it. 1t
was generous of him to give his party a
little of the benefit. 1t is not likely
that President Arthur wishes bad luck
TO befall his friend Dorsey, who was so
5erYiceable in 1880.

Boss MCKINLEY and his tOOt-horn or
gan were quite successful again last
Saturday, in controlling the Republican
primaries in the county, carrying every
township but Perry [MassillOnJ, and the
vote there being Russell 337 to McKin-
ley's 331.
We expected this result, being aware
of the influences and manipulatiOns un-
der control of Major Mckinley postal
agents, Internal Revenue officials, Post
masters, ETC., all owing their positions
to the Congressman, to say nothing of
those who are provided positions by
him, were active last Saturday in his
behalf. There were other jealous gentle
men also active, no doubt under good
pay. The Majors workers last Saturday
on our Court House pavement, belonged
with hardly an exception, to these
classes. The whole affair was thus
controlled in the interest of this boss
Congressman, and of course, voting was
carried on with the utmost freedom, not
to say lOOseness. At this rate the Major
Is life member. An intense and ae-
tive friend of Major Mckinley, last Sat
urday was trying to convince and con-

well informed Republican brother, when
the latter said:
"Name, if you can, a single measure
that Major Mckinley has fathered and
engineered through Congress in the six
years he has been a member"
This was a settler, for the Majors
man failed to meet the point. Facts are
stubborn things, sometimes, and soon
settle grOundless claims. But, really,

1T seems the striking freight handl

IT seems the striking freight handlers
in New York are likely to gain their
point. The fat transportation COM
panies hold out to their own cost.
They tried new hands, but they were
failure and more costly. Popular SYM
pathy was on the side of the strikers,
and the city administration was not
used to override the law-abiding strik-
ers, as was the case in Cleveland. The
labOrer is surely worthy of his hire.
While the capitalists have been refusing
to come to terms, thousands of dollars
worth of perishable freight has gone to
loss.

OF COURSE THAT is ROBEsON's CHIEF
OBJECT.

Not only does Mr.. RObesOn's bill mud
die and mix up appropriations in such a
manner that there is no certainty as to
where and how the money will be spent,
but it is clear that by diverting so much
to the irOn-clads he is creating great
deficiency, which Congress will be asked
to make up next year. The chief object
of the bill, as Mr.. Robeson has framed
and muddled it, appears to be to spend as
many millions as possible on the anti
quated irOn-clad hulks, for which he has
so curious an affection, and to do thus at
the expense of all other parts of the
navy.-N. Y. Herald.

Mckinley has twenty-nine delegates
in COlumbiana and fifty-hve in Stark,
making a total thus far of eighty-fOur.
Judge Laubie has twenty-five in Column
biana and none in Stark, whilelRussell
has ten in Stark. Carroll and MahOn-
ing Republicans have not yet chosen
their delegates, the former county hay-
ing twenty and the latter forty-One
The entire number of delegates in the
Convention will be III, making eighty
nine necessary to choice. Mckinley,
therefore, only lacks five to have ma
jOrity, and there is no doubt of his get
ting more than five delegates in the two
counties yet to choose. 1t will be seen,
therefore, that the Major is boss and
runs the machine for himself and fourth
term. There is no knowing where he
will stop, unless the Democracy of the
district do their full duty this fall and
lay him out. We do not believe in boss
Otfice-hOlders, who serve monopoly
schemers and run the spOils party.

The present system of so-called pro-
lection is only monopoly and tax spolia-
tion of the people. Congressman Nc
Kinley is one of the tools of this tax
spOliatiOn, and servant of the mOnOpo-

success. He serves his makers, and
they serve him. Spoils and plunder are
the objects, and the people are the vic
Tins.
