last January, they were indicted. At
the same term Craft and Neal were put
on trial, convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. An appeal was taken to the
Court Of Appeals, where their cases are
still pending. Ellis, Neal and Craft
were sent to the Lexington Jail, where
they have remained, and where the two
latter are still confined, Ellis having
been brought here at the beginning of
the present term of our Court for trial.
On last Monday the trial of Ellis was
begun, which terminated on Friday
morning by the jury bringing in ver-
dict of guilty, and fixing his punish
ment at confinement in the Penitentiary
for life. The people who were in attend
ance during the trial manifested a calm
but earnest interest in the proceedings;
and when the verdict was rendered it
was thought that it would satisfy the
most blOOdthiTsty. But the sequel
shows there are those among us who be-

THE LABOR TROUBLES.

PITTSBURGH, June 6.--NO change in
the situation as regards the strike. No
indications of a settlement and neither
side yet willing to yield. The same
state of affairs Is reported from other
points. 1t is now thought the strike
may last some weeks yet.
The situation remains unchanged in
Youngstown and the MahOning Valley.
The William AnsOn Wood Mower and
Reaper Works have shut down, being
unable to secure malleable iron enough
to run them.
The prOprietOrs of the white ware
pOtteries in East Liverpool have agreed
to employ no workman belonging to the
Knights of Labor or other organizations
of like character.
The prospect of an early adjustment
of the iron strike trouble at Springfield,
ILL.,, is reported to be encouraging.
The Wheeling strike seems nowhere
near adjustment. The manufacturers
are going to Pittsburgh on Wednesday
to attend the general meeting of iron
manufacturers. @

MIR. Russell Looms Up as Cand1-
date for Congress.
The gallant Major is not likely to find
his pathway to Congress strewn with
roses, for, after having defeated Judge
Laubie by denying a bona fide promise,
and thus securing partial victory in
the coming convention, a dark war
cloud arises from MassillOn and Mr..
Clement Russell, well tried business
man, with strong hackers, takes the field
against the young Napoleon" The fol-
lowing from the MasSillOn cOrrespOn-
dent of the Cleveland Leader is self
explanatory:
MAsSILLoN, June Am editorial in
Yesterdays Canton Repository contains
the following opening paragraph:
"The sensational report of the Canton
correspondent of the Cleveland Leader
to the effect that C. Russell, of MassillOn,
is about to rush into the field as a can
didate for Congress in this district, lacks
confirmation" .
Your MassilIOn correspondent can
state Officially that Mr.. Clement Rus
sell, of this city, Is candidate for the
Republican nomination for Congress in
this district, having it from the, mouth
of the, gentleman himself. But Mr..
Russell did not rush into the field"
The facts connected with the presenta-
tiOn of his name to the voters of the dis
trict are simply these: Last Thursday
evening a delegation of prominent Re-
publicans from C0lumbtana and Carroll
counties came here to see Mr.. Russell in
reference to his candidacy. The gentle
men represented to him that the feeling
engendered in the eastern part of the
district betweent the supporters of Judge
Laubie and Major Mckinley has become
so intensely bitter that the prospects of
Republican snccess would be jeOpar-
died by the nomination of either of
those gentlemen, and to secure harmony
| by healing anticipated disaffectiOn in
the party it was desired that Mr.. Rus
| sell should consent to be candidate.
The visiting committee was joined by a
number of Massillon's most prOmin ant
| citizens. Mr.. Russell was waited upon
by the party, and solely for the reasons
stated did he consent to enter the con-
| test.
To show that Mr.. Russell's candidacy
| is not cllimerical or visionary it is only
necessary to state that he is endorsed

years, by such citizens as John E. Nc
Lean, President of the Union National
Bank; S. Hunt, President, and Charles
Steese, Cashier, First National Bank;

resentatiye S. G. Bowman; Joseph COrns,
proprietor MassillOn Rolling Mill; eX-
County Treasurer Ira M. Allen, Colonel
T. S. Webb, David Murray, w. A. Brown,
]. f. POcock, Secretary and Treasurer
Massillon City Coal Company, every
member of the extensive manufacturing
firm of Russell & Co., their clerks and
other employees, and many business
men.
Mr.. Russell is not an Office seeker; he
never held an office, nor even aspired to
one. He is a practical, experienced
business man of intelligence and In
tegrity; was one of the founders of the
present immense establishments of Rus
sell 81 Co., in 1912; was for thirty-sl2
years the financial and business man OF
the firm; has been director in the G..
Il. V. g. W. Ry. since it was built, and Is
at present principal owner of the larg
est coal mine in the TuscaTawas Valley
besides owning several valuable farms
in this vicinity.
For the reasons given above Mr.. Rus
sell has been entered for the Congress
siOnal race, and his numerous intluen
tial friends here will use every honor
able means from now until the conYen
tion names the candidate, to secure LII
nomination.

THE Cincinnati VOlksblatt is the lead

edited by Mr.. Hassaurek, and comments
as follows on the decision of the Su-
preme Court of Ohio on the Pond bill:
The dissatisfaction created among the
German Republicans by the passage of
the Pond law is we'll known. That the
decision of the Supreme Court will
abate this dissatisfaction is not to be
expected. The majority of those Re-

WE desire to suggest to Judge Weed
that if he would give the saloon keepers
who sell liquor on Sunday weeks term
of Imprisonment, instead of a single
day, he would make the punishment a
much more formidable one. Judge Sol
ders's vigorous sentence of gamblers
and prostitutes to long terms of impris-
Onment did great deal to drive those
two classes out of town, and the same
rule will work with the saloon men. A
day in Jail and $25 fine will not bother

THE prospects for unanimity of senti-
ment among the Republicans In 1884 are
not now flattering. The breach between
the two factions Is daily widening. De-
mOcracy was never more cordially hated
by Republicans than are StalwaTts now
hated by half-breeds. Harmony in Penn
sylvania seems impossible; efforts to re-
store it in New York are vain. An apathy
among Republicans is everywhere ap-
