The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1882-08-31

MAYOR GRACE, Of New York, believes
municipal administration should be dis
tinct from party politics. His term ex-
pires this year. and his successor will be
elected in November. Interviewed
about again being candidate, the Mayor
said:
If every Democrat in this city should
ask me to accept nomination and prom
ise to vote for me I would not consent
to be a candidate. The only way in
which would consent to continue my
work here would be as citizens candi-
date on an independent platform. Think
that the sooner the municipal offices are
separated from politics the better it will
be for the taxpayers as we'll as laborers
of the city. do not wish to accept a
nomination from any party, and thus
place myself under obligations to that
party.
There is much force in what Mayor
Grace said. He seems to have overcome
the prejudice he encountered on assum-
ing the duties of his Office two years ago.
and it is admitted he has made one of
the best Mayors the city ever had.
Good citizens of an incorporated town
are alike interested in honest, economi-
cal and efficient administration. Un-
worthy schemes of public plunder, or
the granting of favors as license priVi-
leges, &C., to benefit one or more at the
expense of the city, are not of a partisan
character. All taxpaying citizens are
alike interested and ought to make
common cause in the common good.
Were this more generally done, citizens
of principle, character and intelligence
would have more to do in municipal

Another lesson OF the Hearst defeat,
says the San Francisco Daily Exchange,
is that it is no longer safe to put ones
trust in the political bosses. Their
power has passed away, and where a few
years ago they could muster an army,
they now can barely secure a Corporal's
guard at their call. 1t is a waste of
money to employ the political bosses to
make a fight. They can buster and
promise and calculate down to a quarter
Of a dollar what the price of success will
be, but in the hour Of battle they are
helpless and impotent, and their voice
has no more control over the masses than
the squeak of a tin trumpet. These
truths Mr.. Hearst has nov discovered to
his cost, and possibly the scars he re-
ceived in this disastrous contest may
teach him experience the next time he
enters the political arena.

AMERICANS IN EGYPT.

The Buffalo Express tells the follow
ing story of Nj. Simon Wolfe, the late
American Consul General at Cairo,
Egypt. He reached Cairo about the
time OF the great revolt. He was sitting
in front Of Shepherds Hotel, taking his
after-dinner coffee, when an excited Eng
llshman rushed up to him and cried ::
"Have you heard the news, Mr.. Consul?
There is to be a general rising tonight,
and every European and Christian in the
city is to be murdered" Mr.. Wolfe
went on drinking his coffee, apparently
unmoved by these dreadful tidings. "Do
you not hear me-" reiterated his agi-
tated informant. "The fanatics intend
to kill every European and Christian in
Cairo" Eyes, l hear you," quietly
responded Mr.. Wolfe, "but l do not see
how that affects me at all, since | am an
American and an Israelite."

I'M ICE TAXED.

A bill has been passed by the House of
Representatives which imposes upon
each immigrant landed in this country a
poll.tax of fifty cents. the proceeds of
which are to form a fund for furnishing
the strangers with the accommodations
they need upon arrival, for defraying the
expense of returning paupers, ~lunatics
and oonvicts to their native lands, and
for other purposes Of the same nature.
These are all proper and necessary OBJ.
jects, and the passage of a bill to accom-
plish it is a step in the right direction.
The time is rapidly approaching, if it is
not already at hand, when the United
States Government must exercise a sur.
Vigilance much more strict than hereto.

PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.

If the bill now before the Senate to
regulate the Presidential succession, in
the event of the Office being vacated, be-
comes a law, the country will be in very
little danger of an interregnum. The
plan which the bill presents is, one
would think, sufficiently comprehensive
to provide against every possible contin-
gency. If the President dies, resigns, is
removed, or becomes unable to discharge
his duty at a time when no Vice Presi.
dent is ready to step into his place, then
the Secretary of State is to take COM
mand Of the ship, and so on through the
Cabinet. That arrangement ought to Sc.
cure us against any break in the continu.
ity OF the supreme authority.

legally be admitted to witness a hanging,
and SO unless the pressure for admission
is too strong to be resisted. the specta-
tors, when Guiteau makes his last ap-

Does imprisonment for Debt Exist
Here?

Last Saturday publication was made Of the
fact that Justice Macarthur had decided in
the case Of Jones VS.. Smith (of the Lochiel
House, to issue a writ Of capias ad satisfaction
dunn. That action was postponed until this
morning, and Mr.. Smith appeared in response
to the writ, and was taken In custody by the
Marshal. Mr.. ]. X. Redington, as his counsel,
presented an application for a writ Of habeas
corpus, with the idea Of carrying the case to
the General Term on appeal, and obtaining
decision as to the legality of the writ. The
Court refused to grant the application, saying
that he was well satisfied that he possessed
the power to issue the writ and an appeal
from his decision could be prosecuted as expe-
ditiously as proceedings by habeas corpus.
Mr.. Redington said that II HIS Honor would
accept bail in the case he would withdraw his
petition and appeal from the decision that had
been made.
Mr.. Mackey, of the counsel on the other side,
stated that he was willing to withdraw all pro-
ceedings on return Of the goods or payment Of
the money. He further submitted that Mr..
Smith was now in the custody of the court and
there he ought to remain until he complied
with the terms OF the writ.
Mr.. Redington replied that this was the first
time that the writ had been issued here in 81
years, and the Judge taking that matter into
consideration, released Mr.. Smith on his per-
sonal recognizance in the sum OF 1000 for
his appearance in court tomorrow.

A ENTERING WEDGE
which May BENEFIT the District
Treasury.


Tho Circuit Court, Justice Macarthur pre-
siding this morning entered upon the trial OF
the case Of the District Of Columbia against
Mr.. Lewis Clephano, Messrs. Riddle and
Miller appearing for tho District and Messrs.
Cook ana Cole for the defendant.
This is one Of n class Of cases that have boon
pending for years, and in all involve about
SbOo,O0O to tho District treasury, and grew out
Of contracts made by the late Board Of Public
Works. In this instance the defendant had
q contract for laying wood pavement on
Twelfth street northwest, performed the work
and gave bonds to keep II in repair for three
years. subsequently the form Of District Gov
ernment changed, Commissioners succeeding
the Territorial Government. Some OF the wood
pavements have decayed rapidly, and tho con-
tractors, among them, Mr.. Clephane, were
called upon to put them in repair, but did
nothing In that direction. Later on the Com
missioners entered into contract with other
parties and made the repairs by ripping up
tho rotten wood and substituting asphalt
payements. or tho contract work per-
formed by Mr.. Clephanc, they laid on
Twelfth street an asphalt pavement
from L to T. street northwest, and then insti.
tuted suit against him TO recover $41, 900, the
alleged expense OF tho improvement. The
suits against the other parties are exactly
similar to this, differing only as TO the amount
claimed.
The defense is OF n dual character: First II
is claimed that the street was originally paved
in n manner prescribed by the Board of Public
Works and by material OF their selection; thai
this material was examined and passed upon
by their inspector, the work inspected as II
progressed and when finished, and finally
accepted rs satisfactory. Second, that the
was not in the nature Of repairs, but laying al
entire new and different style OF pavement In
the place of the original wood one, and which
no clause of the contract recognized. 1t |.

GRANT AND SHERMAN.
Rumors of Trouble Growing Ont Of
the Logan Bill-RepOrt That Grant.
If ReappOintcd. Will Decline to

1t is q well-known fact that considerable
jealousy has always existed in the army.
When wo say the army Of course we mean
among the officers Of the army, for they con-
stitute the great bulk of that service as 1t is
now constituted. This brings us to what we
wanted TO say. CRITIC reporter heard that
there was considerable uneasiness felt
by Gen. Sherman and his friends over
the proposed nomination of Gen.
Grant. This suspicion was Increased
when II was noticed the other day that when
the bill TO appoint and retire Gen. Grant was
being discussed Gen. Sherman was an attentive
listener, and seemed to be unusually restlve
and hdgetty. After talking to a number Of
gentlemen who are intimane friends of Gen.
Sherman, THE CRITIC rep )rter has come to the
conclusion that Gen. Sherman is not opposed
TO the appointment and retirement OF Gen.
bill becomes q law and Gen. Grant is appointed
under it and confirmed by the Senate,
he may refuse TO be retired until he shall
reach the age at which he can be forced to re-
tire. Should he take this course, that would
overslaugh Gen. Sherman and put him to play
ing second fiddle to the Silent Man. 1t is
claimed among the knowing ones that this is
not a mere Idle suspicion, but that Gen.
Sherman and his friends have grave
doubts as to the propriety of per-
mitting the bill to pass the House,
and are watching developments very closely.
1t is safe to say that II this suspicion should
increase in the same proportion in the next
five days that 1t has in the five days last past,
Gen. Sherman and his friends will light into
that bill with such vim as will "make Rome
howl"

SERGEANT MASON.
The seventh Day of the Trial.

The seventh day of the trial of Sergeant
John s. Mason for shooting at the assassin
Guiteau was resumed at the Washington Bar
racks (ArsenaD to day. The record of yester-
day was read and approved, after which Sur
geon j. Il. Gibson was called, and in answer to
a question by Gen. Bigeiow, said he called
OF his physical condition, but was thwarted
by the Sergeant, who would not permit
him to make complete examination

prisoner and found that the wound he had re-
ceived in that member gave evidence of
The witness was asked IL the wound injured

did. Witness did not think the wound would
disqualify the prisoner from military service
Major Robinson, Of Ohio, with whom Mason
served during the war, and whose presence is
needed to prove the circumstances OF the
wound, was not present.
President Mizner suggested that counsel for
Mason frame what he expected to provo by
Major Robertson and submit II the Court, and
il would be allowed to go on the record. The
President OF the Court said a recess OF one
hour should be taken to give Mr.. Bigelow time
TO draw up such document.
Mr.. BigelOw thought he ought to be allowed
The President said the broadest spirit of
liberality had been shown the prisoner all
through the trial. Mr. Bigelow said he desired
to make public acknowledgment of that fact.
1t was finally agreed to give the counsel for
the prisoner the time he asked for, and then q
Turnkey Woodward to appear before the Court
and testify for the defense.
Tho court reassembled at i; 80, and at 2
o'clock Gen. Crocker and Mr.. Woodward ar
rived. The former was put upon the stand
and testified to the width and length OF the
bunk in Guiteau's cell. Witness related a
conversation he had with Guiteau tho day
after the shooting, to the effect that the latter
told him he (Guiteau) was lying on the bunk,
when he heard the soldiers drive up, and as
he rose up to look out ball came whizzing
past his head. The assassin asked the witness
II he thought the soldiers did the shooting
Witness responded that he did mo-
think soldier, who had beer
sent to guard him, would attemp

over the matter subsequently with Guiteau
that he told two other different stories abou
the position he was In when fired upon b!
Mason; QUE, that he was in STOPPING posi-
tion, and another, that he was standing
squarely in front OF the window.
1t was not deemed necessary 10 call Mr.

here rested.

Mr.. P D. ETUE, Kansas City, Mo-, one
of the proprietors Of the Commercial Indi-
Gator, says he knows the st. Jacobs Oil to
be most valuable remedy for rheumatism.
Last winter, Mr.. Etue says he had this dis
case in his left shoulder. The pain was
excessive at times, and SO severe while at.
tacks lasted as to cause a strong desire to
have it speedily eradicated. After vainly
resorting to several remedies for relief,
without success, he at last hit upon the
Great German Remedy. He experienced
decided and immediate relief from its use,
and was entirely cured with the fourth ap-
plication. Since then he has entertained a
very high respect for tho curative powers
of the Oil. This respect is not at all
lessened by its happy action in the case OF
his wife, who was suffering with inflamma-
tory rheumatism. She contracted the dis
ease while visiting in Colorado. Upon
arriving at home the st. Jacobs Oil was
USED in conjunction with prescriptions fol-

aided in her restoration to health.
