EDITOR Observation-Disclosures "Verus"
thinks that stating the occasion, time
and place, when Abraham Lincoln said,
81 believe this government cannOt en-
dure permanently half slave and half
Free" is not a satisfactory answer; that
it lacks confirmation; that it is mere
assertion. He says Douglas is good au
thOTity. So he is. l want no better,
and the fact that Douglass quoted the
quotation from Mr.. LincOln's speech,
would satisfy the most skeptical. Verus
further states that when | succeed in
fastening that reasonable expression
upon Mr.. Lincoln" he (Yerus) will en-
deaVOT to prove that it was inconsistent
with many of his subsequent official
acts. / care not what he may be able to
prove. | am not defending Mr.. LincOln's
career. l simply used the quotation as
a parallel expression, as do many speak
eTs and writers, to present a subject
more logically. Mr. Lincoln used a
parallel quotation from the New TeSta-
ment when he stated the quotation that
Ferus thinks is a preyaricatlOn. "a
house divided against ITSELF is the
quotation, and in the joint debates III
the State of Illinois between Mr.. Douglas
and Mr.. Lincoln, this speech of Lincoln S
became known as "the hOuse-dlvided-
against-itself-speec and was fre-
quently referred to by Mr.. Douglas
Neither did Mr.. Lincoln utter it i'm
prOmptu, as it was a written speech
and before going into the hall to deliver
it, he entered his law Office, locked the
door against intrusion, and read to MIR
| HerndOn, his law partner, the first para
graph of ii lin which appears this quota
| tiOn that "Verus" thinks L have made
out of whole clOth,) and asked him his
| opinion of it. Mr.. HerndOn thought il
| was true, but did not think it policy tC
say so. Mr.. Lincoln replied, that makes
no difference. 1t is true and the nation
is entitled to it. 1t has been true fol
six thousand years, and | will read it as
it is written" The proof of the pudding
is in the eating, and if ''Verus" will
turn to page % in "The Life of Abraham
Lincoln, by Frank Grossly" or to page 1t
in "The Life of Abraham Lincoln by j
G. Holland" he may read the quotation
for himself. Also, on page 168 of the
latter he will find that Douglas quoted
the exact words, Il believe this govern
ment cannot exist half slave and hall
free, &C." If "Verus' will go to the
Canton School Library and call for No
961, his doubts may be removed by re-
ferring to the above cited pages. L ac'
cept j. G. Holland as good authority. II

The following bills were allowed and
COUNCIL ECHOES.

Council adjourned at $50 p. m.
The new bonds will draw 6 per cent,
and cannot run over twenty years.
That 1920 balance in the poor fund
was reduced again by paying several
bills. No action was taken on DumOnts
316 dollar account.
The question of building a City Hall
and Market House will be submitted to
the voters on April Sd. The necessary
permission to issue bonds in any sum,
not exceeding $4,000, has been secured
from the Legislature.
The Committee on Streets and Alleys
did not report on the proposed Yacating
ordinance of G. Aultman IL Co., but Mr..
Welsh, a property owner, entered a
vigorous protest against closing the
streets in that neighbOrhoOd.
Six new desks, chairs and spittOOns
have been ordered for the new Council.
What a sOul-stirTing sight it will be
when the devoted fourteen march in
arTayed in their wal-paint, and all the
glorious panOply of war. Verify to be
''sachem" in the new Council is no
small honor.
All the wooden buildings now owned
by the city, except the steamer engine
house and hook and ladder shed, on lots
POP, 203 and 204, will be sold at public
auction next Saturday at 2 D. m. Terms
One-third cash, one-third in six months
and balance in one year, with approved
security.
While the Street Commissioner is fix
ing up around West TuscaraWas street,
let him go further and operate on the
board walk out to the bridge. 1t is in a
disgracefuI condition for rich city that
is issuing bonds for city meat markets
and public jails. That hand rail at the
bridge also needs repairing.
The Valley RP ilway is sort of "snide"
company in so far as observing the
rights of the city is concerned. In ex-
tending their line over South Market
street, they paid no attention whatever
to existing or future sewers, cOnse-
quently that street is flooded at every
rain. Proftting by past experience, the
| Street Commissioner was ordered to put
in box sewers and present them the bill.
And again, when they put in their
side track at West Tuscarawas street
they not only tore up the foot walk, but
appropriated about fifteen feet of plank
on the west side of the track and left
the whole place in deplOTable cOndi-
| tiOn. RemOnstTance was made to the
Superintendent, but aside from a min
ute made in his note book, no action
was taken. The city also fixes this
place, and dad will settle the bill"

Funeral Iof George shorb.

The funeral of George F. Short, whose
death at Albuquerque we announced
last week, took place on Sunday from
the Episcopal Church of our city, under
the auspices of the Masonic fraternity.
The remains were laid at rest in the
ShOrb burial place, west of the English
Roman Catholic Church. His two
brothers, John s. and Eugene H. ShOrb,
were present at the funeral Deceased
died of rheumatism of the heart after
eight days illness. Norman Raft and
Charles Faber, in the banking business
at Albuquerque, were attentive to Mr..
Shorb during his final illness. Deceased
was aged 40 years. He was born and
raised in Canton, but had not lived here
for many years, having spent most of
his manhood life in New York City. He
was son of John ShOrb, a prominent
citizen of Canton in his day, who built
and occupied with his large family the
brick residence on West Tuscarawas
street, now owned by Alex. HurfOrd.
The late Mrs. DR.. j. H. Matthews was a
sister of the deceased. He was an
amiable and accomplished gentleman,
and known to all his friends as a man of
high generosity and magnanimitY.

L. COsgrove Arrested for RObbing II. b.
FOgIe a Year and Half Ago.
On the first of December, 1880, Henry
B. FOgle, better known as Bent" the
auctiOneeT, was in Alliance attending
to some business, and wishing 10 come
to Canton that day, sent a young fellow
named Livingston COsgrOVe to inquire
the price of a livery rig. He returned
and told Bent the amount, a couple of
dollars, whereupOn FOgle pulled out
about $500 in bills, in order to extract
the necessary sum. COsgrOve couldn't
stand the sight of so much wealth and
grabbed the entire pile and skipped,
since which time he was lost to sight,
tho to Bent's memory expensive. Last
Friday, trainman on one of the Fort
Wayne fTeights, lodged information that
he had seen COsgTOVe eat breakfast at
Crest!ine that morning, and the authOri-
ties there were telegTaphed to arrest
and hold him, which was done. Deputy
Sheriff c. G. Card went to Crestline and
brought his prisoner home on Monday
morning, lodging him in Jail. In the
afternoon he was taken before Justice
Benjamin f. Faust, in the cassidy
Block, and a time for getting witnesses
and hearing the case set for next Mon
day, March 9th, at p. IN. The prisoner
is a short sized man, dressed in regula-
tiOn tramp uniform of faded clothes, and
now reclines in the Jail awaiting a pre-
llmlnary examination.

We dropped into Hahn Brothers Mar
BILE Works, on East Seventh street, the
other day and were surprised to see how
completely they have stocked up their
salesroOms with elaborate marble shafts
and tombstones of every description.
One especially fine large monument is
finished by this firm, to fill Pittsburgh
order, which shows that their work is
appreciated abroad as well as at home.
They employ no travelling statesmen and
do the most of their own work, so that
intermediate profits are cut off, and they
can sell at lower prices than any of
their competitors. All kinds and styles
of marble grave decorations are fur
nished at reasonable prices by this old
reliable house. Their business adVer-
tisement appears in this paper.

The carpet house of j. o. Palmer, on
South Market street, above Eighth, is
fully stocked this season with a larger
and more complete line of carpets, oil
cloths, window curtains, wall paper and
mOuldings than ever before. On the
second floor is the carpet room, filled
with ingrains and domestic carpets,
body and tapestry Brussels, oil cloths in
various patterns, mattings, carpet chain,
etc. A man is employed to put down
carpets when required. In the third
floor carpeting is sewed together to fill
orders, and in the front are large piles
of duplicate patterns in wall papers,
mOuldings and general merchandise in
large quantities. Buying goods in such
great lots, this house can offer closer
figures than any other in the trade.

A Sky PARLoR EPISODE.
The Roof Taken or of a SLY BagnIO In Lip
pert's Block.


Last week we chrOnicled the downfall
of gambling den and the tanning of its
tiger, which has had the salutary effect
of quieting this branch of industry for
the present, and the work of the Police
Board of Moral Health is still going on.
There are several well-knOwn houses of
ill-fame situated within the corporate
limits, on which the official eye has been
balefully cleaning for some time past,
but the raid above mentioned made them
dread the familiar barber's term next"
for they feared they were the ones
meant. This time, however, the light
ming struck in an unexpected quarter,
for we venture to say, very few dreamed
of the existence of a "malsOn de jOie" in
the Lippert block ,On the third floor. Such
are the facts. NeighbOTs frequently saw
a light cleaning from the elevated re-
giOns of the block, but supposed fami
ly lived there. Officers Cummins and
Wielandt, with the lOngheadedness born
in the craft, knew better, and on Satur-
day night, at the weird hour of twelve,
when graveyards yawn and the dead
broke bOarder skips his lodging house,
entered the rooms and found two young
men in company with two women, re-
hearSlng practically some of the cantOs
of Don Juan. They were arrested and
the Mayor called out at 1 a. IN. The
names that appear on the blOtter, and
which, by the way, are mere pleasant
fctiOns, are Mrs. Ella Miller, Molly
Thompson, Charles Brown and Charles
Harris. One of the latter is young
married hubby, who had no business on
that floor, and the other may expect a
tornado if his lady love finds out how
her Harris or BrOwn-as the case may
be-spends his time out of her parlOr.
The madam paid $40 and costs, MOllie
darling Clipped in $40 and trimmings,
| and the two Charles H. and B. settled at
So and costs. "The more you live, the
more, by jimminy, you find out" IS true
| one suspected the existence of the place
| before. P. S.-The Mayors docket is not
reliable as a city directory of proper
| names

Graveyard Gossip,

The pleasant days of spring tempt our
people to go out walking on SUNDAYS
the Canton Cemetery being an objective
point for many. The grounds are situ-
ated west of the city and reached from
the MassillOn road by a narrow board
walk, which is a disgrace to the trus-
tees, or other responsible officials who
have charge, Openings, broken planks
and "chuck holes" varied by occasional
gaps of virgin soil and slanting side
walk, where the earth has settled, make
walking very precariOus in day light
and positive danger in the early even
ing. While speaking of sidewalks, it is
appropriate, also, to call attention to
the defective condition of the one on the
north side of the street, leading to the
west creek bridge, which in many places
Is sadly out of repair, fittingly termina-
ted by a broken hand railing at the
bridge, where the weary traveller, after
escaping the many mantrapS on the
walk, can comfortably drop into the
creek and cool off. The lots in the eeme-
terry are covered with dead leaves and
rubbish, and the trees and shrubs call
for the pruning knife. In the new part,
on the north side, grading and leVeling
Is being done, preparatory to setting in
white marble posts, designating lot
numbers. Several new monuments of
elegant designs have been placed in
position, and deep, broad foundation
of heavy stone is being built on Mr.
Jacob Miller's lot, to receive a large
marble shaft. The city water pipes are
pretty generally introduced, and there
will be no lack of sprinkling facilities
in a dry season. There was to be &
fountain placed somewhere, but it has
not yet materialized. The grounds arr
capable of much adOrnment and will
doubtless, be greatly improved during
| the next two months.

Our merchant tailoring department
being the last addition to our mammoth
establishment, it is needless for us to
say that it was simply an experiment.
But to our surprise we find ii to be one
of the best moves we have ever made.
Knowing business men laughed at the
idea of getting a gentleman up to the
third floor to be measured for suit of
clothes. But we have found that fine
goods, perfect fitting garments, superior
workmanship, and low prices have done
the business, and would take them up
to the sixth story if necessary. For the
spring of 'S2 we are displaying over 3
500 different patterns of gentlemen's
suitings, cOatings, trimmings, etc, COM
prising all the latest novelties of the
best French, English, Scotch and Ameri-
can manufacturers. A perfect fit guar
anteed. All work strictly first class.
Gentlemen, it will pay you to look
through our immense stock before leav-
ing your orders elsewhere. No fancy
prices. E. NJ. MCGILLIN 81 Co., Cleve--
