THE DEED is DONE,

And Hon. Vim. Mckinley is again the
nominee of the Republican party for
Congress in the 18th district.
While we accept the situation, we
need not say that we regret it. Our Op-
position to Mckinley had its origin in
loyalty to the party, and consideration
for its highest interest. We believe his
nomination, under all the circum-
stances, would be blunder, that the
result might magnify into a crime. To
prevent this, the Review said nothing
that it did not believe, or which it does
not now believe. 1t therefore takes
nothing back and eats no crow. 1t is
owned by its publisher, and always
speaks his sentiments on all subjects.
This, its readers fully understand, and
they expect it to preserve and maintain
its distinctive characteristics, as an in
dependent, OutspOken Republican paper,
and not the "Organ" of any political as
piTant. 1t has more than once differed
from, possibly, a majority of it's readers
and patrons, and in this, it may be do
ing so again. Fortunately for us, how
ever, our patrons do not belong to the
class, who would put paddock on the
lips of the editor and then demand of
him true and manly speech. If any
such, by mistake, have gotten their
names on our list they will of course
leave us, and in these degenerate times,
they will have no difficulty in finding
papers that will sneeze when the party
takes snuff, and lick the spittle of the
dispensers of political pap. The Review
is not one of them.
Mr.. Mckinley may possibly be elected,
our opinion to the contrary nOtwith-
standing. If he is, he will owe the Re-
view nothing. If he is not, we disclaim
in advance, any responsibility for the
party's defeat. Our advice to our read
ers who feel as we do, in regard to this
matter, is, to do as we do, and to all
others, to do as they please.
Our State and county ticket is unex-
ceptionally good and cannot fail to COM
mand the respect and hearty support of
every man who believes in and desires
the success of the party and the princi-
pies it represents, and the Review will
be found in line.-Alliance Review.

Like the itch, the Opera House license
question Is "ketehing." Canton has
had it-bad toO-fOr a long time, and
now 1t has broken out in Alliance. +.
C. Marehand was before the Council
Monday night asking TOR yearly license
for the MaTchand Opera House, and the
Council prudently laid the matter over
until the next meeting.
1t Is not matter that should be acted
upon hastily 1t is no doubt very nice
thing for the proprietor of an Opera
House, but whether it is equally good
for the town and opera trOupes is not so
certain.
The Alliance Opera House is a fine
structure, containing a beautiful hall,
and Is credit to our town, entitled to
all the patronage and aid our citizens
can properly extend to it, but we seri-
Ously doubt the wisdom or legality of
our City Council granting to it eXclu-
sively a yearly license, empowering its
proprietor to charge trOupes renting it
such license as he sees fit. 1t might be
the means of putting into the pocket of
the proprietor of the Opera House money
which should go into the town treas
ury.
IL might in many instances prove un
Just both to the town and opera trOupes.
The proprietor of an opera hall derives
his recOmpense in the rental money;
the license he can properly have nothing
to do with. Such is our present view of
the matter. If we are wrong we are
open to cOnyiction.-Alliance Leader.
We extend our sympathies to our Alli-
ance contemporary, for the Opera House
license question has agitated this city
long while and misery loves company.

THE late Republican Robson Congress
not only failed to reduce taxes, but in
creased enormously the expenditures.
The enormous taxation of the General
Government seriously embarasses, hamp.
ers or disturbs capital and honest busi-
ness, and affiicts labor with serious evils.
Under the lead of Robson, it has out
done its illustriOus predecessors in
prOdigality, scattering millions among
the Republican crowd. 1t voted hun
dred millions in pensions without dis
senting voice. 1t passed the River and
HarbOr bill, involving stealings, as the
President has calculated, to about the
extent of ten millions. 1t has obeyed
the beck of RObesOn, the rObber, from
the beginnin g to the end of the session
1t has had millions for plunder, but not
a dollar for the wOrkingman or in be-
half Of his relief. There is surplus of
nearly hundred and forty millions in
the Treasury, and it seems to have been
the main work of Congress to absorb
this money. What do the people think
of it? What does capital think of it?
Is there a man of the entire gang of rob-
bers who ought to be sent back to Wash
ingtOn?

The Democratic members of the City
Council will observe that the Stark
county DEMOCRAT means to boss its
party, and that whenever they break
over the lines or endeaVOr to show any
| independence of thought and action
they will be punished in the OdOrOus
manner peculiar to that Organ-RepOsi-
| tory.
The Opera Odor flavOrs the foregoing.
for in such cases, fulsome compliments
are free. Selhshness is ever ready to pat
on the back those who do their selfish
bidding and. call it Independence Of
thought and action when they break
over the lines" to serve him.
The editor of the STARK COUNTY DEMO
Graf bosses the columns thereof with
independence of thought" and freedom
of speech, in manner" not peculiar
to the Opera organ. This may not be
pleasing to the selfish instincts of the
Opera man who bosses its columns and
bosses the majority in the City Council.
THE Democratic members of the City
Council will observe" therefore, "that
the STARK COUNTY DEMOCRAT means to-
adhere to truth, justice and the cOnsti-
tiOn. And when any of them desert
these, and sacrifice the public good to
benefit one man, even if that man is the
mogul of the Opera Repository, the
DEMoCRAT, with independence of
thought and action" will expose the in
| fanny.
Members of the City Council, both
Democrats and Republicans, when elect
trust. The good of the city then should
be first and foremost in their cOnsidera-
tiOn. This, we regret to say, was not
the case in their passage of the act to
benefit Mr.. Schaefer and rob the city.
One of the worst and most disgraceful
features, was the unseemly exhibition of
haste by the majority combination in
the Council to serve Mr.. Schaefer and
rush the job through, regardless of their
own printed rules and the customary
prOprieties of all deliberative bodies.
Mr.. Hiner, from the Judiciary Commit
tee, of which Mr.. Fawcett is the other
member, reports that the bill referred to
them will not do, and recommends an
entire new bill, which was rushed
through with but one reading, when
their own rules require three, on differ
ent days.
The astonishing part of all this busi-
ness is, that men who know better, as
sisted to put through the outrage in this
outrageous manner. Mr.. Shields even
deserted the chair, but voted to sustain
Billy Wyant's "Odorous" rulings. A
new bill was thus forced through with
out the customary and required read
ings, no opportunity being given for
deliberatiOn and discussion. This would
probably justify Mayor Piero in refusing
to issue the license, and we doubt not
the public would sustain him in the act.

SDI ASH THE MACHINE.

Hon. Abraham S. Hewitt, member of
Congress from New York, and one of
the purest and ablest public men in the
country, in a recent speech in the House
upon the repeal of the war taxes said:
"The Republican majority are dead to
conscience; they are dead to the appeals
of the suffering industries of the land;
and there is left but one effectual reme-
dy which the people can now apply
smash the machine. 1 call upon the
capitalists; call upon the laborers
now upon strikes call upon every man
who does not want to arrest the pros
perity of this country, to come forward
in the fall elections and smash the Re-
publican machine" In this district the
Republican "bOsses" have nominated
the "bOss" of the machine for Congress,
for the fourth term. Will they elect
him? -.i

Grant and Treseot as commissioners"
to Mexico are queer combination.
Grant is nOtOriously interested in Mexi-
can railway schemes and Trescot has
achieved certain sort of distinction as
one of the chief expOnents of Blaine's
South American policy" In full view
of this extraordinary conjunction, most
discriminating persons would predict
job of something more than ordinary
magnitude.
The Democracy does not need money
to carry the present election. The peo-
pie are determined to rebuke the corrupt
practices of the Republican party, and
they do not need to be paid for the SER
vice. Let US encourage this return to
political cleanliness by cOnfning the
expenses of our campaign to those legiti-
mate expenditures only which are re-
cOgniZed as necessary and imperative.
"The man who bribes ito be elected can

with the internal fights between the
StalWarts and Half-breeds and the
"liquOr dealers rebellion" recently dis
covered by Arabi Foster there is an inn
mense amount of trouble in the Repub-
lican camp.
1t is interesting to compare the public
expenditures of this country with those
of the leading nations of Europe. The
appropriations made by the present Con-
gress for the coming year amount to
$294,512, ,639. The expenditures of the
prominent nations of Europe in fiscal
years, of which statistics are available,
were as follows: England, $415, sos, ,62O;
Russia, 1853, 121 ,795; Austria, $447, 1885,
322; France, $547, ,241, ,755; Germany, ,$344,-
299, 725; Italy, $283, ,340,5O0. The large
standing armies and navies, the enorm-
GUS burdens of royalty, the expenses of
wars and other extraordinary outgoes
that these countries have, are unknown
here, and yet our expenditures are so
rapidly increasing that they already
compete with them, without the tithe of
the reason that exists in their case.A u

ordinance in not taking out license,

ton. The Chief Justice Sherwood in
the opinion, said: "It is competent for
the courts to make examination and see
if under a mere power to license, the
power of taxation for revenue is exer-
cised. In this case it is apparent at first
blush that the license fee is imposed for

for adoption was at one time withdrawn

men present, led bya carpet-bagger and
a scalawag,. protested bitterly against

willing to say that they sincerely re-

fact that the negroes were in majority
in the convention was alone due the

AFTER frittering- away weeks of the
late session of Congress in unseating
Democrats who were elected, and seat
ing Republicans who were not elected,
the Republican bosses find themselves
in a predicament. The present tariff
and internal revenue yields large sur
plus above the Legitimate needs Of the
Government. This is well known, and
the demands for reduction are daily be-
coming more numerous and imperative.
But If the Republican bosses reduce the
tariff they will offend the InonOpOlists,
who annually contribute largely to the
Republican corruption fund, and COM
pelling thousands of their poor employ
es to walk up to the polls at every cleo
tiOn and vote according to their dicta-
tion. On the other hand, If the Repub-
lican bosses abolish the internal reye-
nue., in order to perpetuate thehigh pro-
tectiVe tariff then a lnrge army Of of
fee holders and Government employees
who perform party service, have got to
step down and out. The problem is
more than the bosses can master, and
the eliminating trouble cannot be much
longer postponed.

JOHN SHERMAN, in the closing days of
the session just ended, made a speech
warning his Republican associates that
the reckless extravaganza with the pub
lie funds was leading to disastrous con-
sequences. Not only has the enormous
surplus left in Congress been wiped out,
but there is actually likely to be def
cit next year. The Senator showed that
the revenues for the next fiscal year
could not exceed $4OO,OOO,OOO, and that
authorized disbursements amounted to
$4O1, 100000. Do the people want another
