Christ thinner, formerly of AultmaR's 8
shop, and AL. Rigler, an emplOye OF the
Bridge Works, were arrested on Tues
day evening charged with committing a
rape on Elizabeth Halter, who lives
back of SippO's Lake. The girl is aged
eighteen, and thinner has been visiting
her for some time past. thinner had
taken her out boating on Myers Lake,
and Sunday evening, August 18th,
and in the evening she said that
she wanted to come to Canton, and so
he induced her to get into carriage
driven by Rigler, but before going home
they drove into the woods, where, she
claims, these two committed the act.
thinner was found at Adrian's Hotel,
near the Fort Wayne depot, by Officer
LOthamer, and Rigler was arrested by
the Marshal. The former in default OF
bail is in Jail, and the latter Is out on
$500 bond. The hearing Is set for
Thursday.
Since writing the above the girl con-
fesses that Frank PieTo took her and
thinner to Canton, Rigler having gone
home before), and the two then went to
the house of Mrs. StrOhle on Liberty
street and raped, but not getting in they
went to the summer house, where they
staid till morning. They must have been
very quiet, for Mrs. Stroll says she was
awake most of the night, and heard
nothing. IL has been learned also that
last winter thinner took the girl from
a dance to a house in the north part OF
the city, where they staid all night.
1t looks very much as if the gIrl is an
old timer, and that this is a case of
blackmail. The parties, at present
writing, are trying to compromise.

SINCE the City Council has settled the
amusement license question, the vocif-
erous editor of the DEMOCRAT will be
able to devote his entire time to care
full investigation of his Congressional
wires.-Schaefer in Repository.
The editor of the DEMOCRAT will first
expose wires" that converted Demo-
cratic Council IL to 3, into Schaefer
affair of to 6. The editor of the DEMO
GRAFT was brought up to detest treachery
and venality, unless excused by stupid
ity or imbecility.-DEMOCRA
We have only to add that the DEMO
Graf is remarkably handy with its ex-
cuses.-RepositOry
"Excusesr' What or whom do we ex-
cuse? Expose is the proper term. We
propose to hold men charged with pub
lie trust responsible for betrayal of
that trust. The men who fOOlishly or
basely sacrificed the interests of this
city to satisfy the selfish demands of one
man, we do not excuse" No, we hold
such work up to public condemnation.

The Dorsey letter to Garfield, written
February z, 1881, (after the election and
few weeks before the Inauguration,
shows that the Star route thief, fresh
from campaign of bribery in Indiana,
was on terms Of intimacy and could
take insOlent liberties with the Presi-
dent-elect, not very flattering to Gar
fields sense of -self-respect. rep
resented COnkling, Grant, Arthur and
Cameron in thus writing to Garfield,
and cracking his whip about the Presi-
dents shoulders as if he was the bond
man'of the Stalwart gang. A few weeks
later Garfield threw the whole pack
overheard, COnkling left the Senate in
disgust, and after Arthur's failing cam
paign at Albany to re-elect him, the
Stalwarts were in the depths of degra-
datiOn. None so poor as to do them rev.
erence. Crack went Guiteau's pistol,
and they crawled out of their holes,
grabbed all the prizes in the lottery of
assassination, and now run the Govern
ment as we'll as the Republican party.
They are on top, "fat, impudent and
sassy" The Garfield party-by the way,
where is the Garfield party?-Pittsburgh

ONTO STATE Fair-Chean E,nnrsion.

The Ohio State Fair has been perma-
nently located at Columbus, and the
State Board of Agriculture, under whose
auspices the exhibitions will be held,
have, during the past year made extern
SiVe improvements in the Fair Grounds
and Buildings for the benefit of exhibi-
tors and visitors. The Fair for 1882 will
be held Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, August 28th, 29th,

cations are that it will excel all previ-
Gus exhibits. The premium lists
amount to nearly $25, 900. The grounds
contain the finest mile track in the
State, and there will be daily exhibitions
IN the speed ring, trOtting, pacing and
running.

part OF the State to visit the Fair, on

THE British Government is anxious
the Sultan declare Arab rebel. 1t
might stop recruiting and demoralize
his officers. 1t has been reported fire.
quently that such proclamation has
been issued, but it seems the MahOm-
medan lawyers have counselled the Sui
tan that in so far as Arab has defended
his country against the aggressive de-
signs of Christians, he has merely full
filed the duties of good Mussulman,
and the Sultan cannot make common
cause with the English against him.

THE DEMOCRATS violent personal
abuse of Mr.. Fawcett, Mr.. Wyant, Mr..
Rex and other members of the City COun-
ell, because Of the passage OF tfe amuse-
ment license ordinance, Is as uncalled
for as it is malicious and vile. Certainly
their action in the matter was not taken
without due deliberatiQp, and through
out gives. .eYidenee. of aadesire, to do JUS
tice to. all the parties concerned. We
are not aware, either, that there Is any
thing criminal in differing with our
bilious cOtempOTary. The DEMOCRATS
effort to make political issue out of
the amusement ordinance, is also a dis
NAL failure.-0pera Editor in Rep.
The future will show whether it is a
dismal failure" Taxpaying citizens
of Canton, of all parties, are interested
in the late Opera job ordinance. We
appeal to them, without distinction of
party, for we know the course of the
DEMOCRAT receives general approval.
Thrice is he armed who hath his quar-
"rel just"
We excuse no man who sold or gave
himself to serve the interest of one man
to the injury of the city. There can be
no excuse for such base work. Mem
bers of Council are under oath to dis
charge a public trust in the interest of
the public, not to the injury thereof and
for the material benefit of al individual
who proposes no leturn.
The majority of the Council have made
the political issue"-not the DEMOCRAT.
1t was by an unholy combination of the
three Republican members and five
Democratic members of the Council,
that a majority was secured for the
amusement man of the Operal The five
Democrats were elected for no such pur
pose, and we'll they know it. The three
Republicans may have been, for the
Opera man is the ruling oracle and per-
forming animal of the Repository.
Republicans of our city, to their cred
it be it said. are as indignant at the con-
duct of the majority in the Council as
Democrats are. This matter rises above
party. Every good citizen is interested
in it. No sensible Cantonian wants to
see our City Council so degrade itself as
to minister to the selfish instincts of one
man, even if he is the pres iding genius
of the Opera House and the Repository.

"LET me warn the Americans" wrote
the late Sydney Smith, "of the inevita-
"ble consequences of being too fond of
"gIory:-taxes." The eloquent author
then describes English taxation: Taxes
upon every article which enters into
"the mouth, or covers, the back, OF. is
"placed under the foot; taxes upon every
thing which it is pleasant to see, hear,
feel, smellO or taste; taxes upon warmth,
light and locOmotion; taxes on every
'thing on earth and in the waters under
"the earth; taxes on the sauce that
'pampers mans appetite, and the drug
that restores him to health"
The eloquent warning of the Rever-
end Sydney Smith has been lost on the
Americans. This land is now under the
tax harrow, and from all appearance is
likely to remain there. We are rapidly
following on after "glOry"-and adopt
ing British systems and practices. We
have the British financial and funding
system; we hold on to the iniquitous
protective system after Britain has
abandoned it; we have our enormous
pension list. our retired army list, titled
admirals with large salaries; in fact
almost everything that royalty, aristOc-
racy and monopoly could desire. And
some people laud this as progressl
iii fares the land to threatening ills prey,
Where wealth accumulates, and men decay;
Princes and lords may flourish or may fade,
breath can make them a breath has made;
But the bold labOrer, his cOuntry's PRIDE

evil communications corrupt good
manners" On this principle we at
tribute the lapsing Of Democrat occa-
sionally in Congress and other delibera-
tive bodies. OF course, they only in
tend to join the enemy for that once;
but such habits grow, especially when
old friends lose confidence in them on
account Of unseemly associations and
engaging in doubtful transactions and
scheming jobs. The straight way is the
only safe way, thus avoiding all appear
ance of croOkedness. .r.t....-
