The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1886-10-28

THE Repository is now blowing its
own horn of praise, and claiming to be
very good.
1t has been villifying architect Guy
Tilden, a Republican, because he came
out in card correcting the Reps false
hoods as to Commissioner Smith.
The Rep. has defended the frauds In
Canton's city buildings; 1t has defended
the bridge swindles of its party; it has
now nothing to say In condemnation Of
Bohemian oats and red line wheat
swindlers, 1t approves Of Forsker's foul
penitentiary human skin lies; in fact,
the ring organ has approved and defend
ed every outrage Of its party.

In a sermon at the First Mr. csurc

In sermon at the First M. X. church
Sunday morning, Rev. Wilson, the pas
tor, took occasion to digress, as he said,
and go into discussion of politics. He
cOntended that political speakers and
political newspaper writer's discussed
persons when they should discuss moth
ing but principles. He said the battles
of the rebellion were fought for princi-
pies and not men, Repository.
The Repository takes exception to the
reverend gentleman's discussion, evil
IDENTIFY, and probably correctly, making g
the proper application. The Rep, shows
1t by devoting a half column of COM
ments, justifying and defending Its
own course as to personal abuse
The reverend gentleman is undoubt
edly correct in saying that newspaper
writer's shOuldzdiscuss principles and
mott assail personal character. If an
official has OversteDped. the law, there IS
q legal remedy.
The newspaper that makes charges
against an oficlsl without any founda-
tiOn In fact, and continues to repeat
and reiterate the same when these have
been disproved over and over again, as
In the case Of Commissioner Smith, is
60 low and degraded In character, that
the sermons and prayers Of the church
will avail nothing.

WHY so MEANLY FALsIFY9

It must be a source Of regret, to say
the least, on the part Of good Republi-
can citizens, to see the infamous course
OF the Repository against Commissioner
Smith,
Mr.. Smith is a respected citizsn aud
substantial farmer of Perry township,
not far from MassillOn. He has been
Commissioner for one term, and has
faithfully attended to the duties of the
position.
Mr.. Smith Is a candidate for re cleo
tion, and the Repository, the ring rob-
ber organ, Is pouring upon Mr.. Smith
the walls of its wrath, repeating and re-
iteEating the enormous falsehOois in
order to elect Henry shaffer, more
convenient instrument. For certain
men there is nO'dOnbt 100000 in 1t.
Architect Tllden, too, is in the way,
and he must get the RepO itOry knife,
although he is Republican. This
shows the way the Repository is run
It is the organ of monopoly and cOmbi-
nation, and the Req. hesitates not to
knife any worthy Republican who
stands in the way. Hence the count
ing out of Hugh D. Brown and count
ing in Henry Shsffer
With all Its mesnness towards Com
missioner Smith; its false tale as to an
inhrmary to cost 100000, the Rep. sd
mits the necessity and claims to favor
new Inhrmary. If the Repository had
any sense Of shame or regard for con-
sistency, It would feel It's contemplate
position. But 1t goes on all the sans
in Its base and Infamous personal abuse.

GENERAL JAMES s. ROBINSON has done

are vastly different, the per cent job
being repair job requiring many and
careful measurements Of the Court
House In order to make the necessary
drawings. Mr.. Tilden has also In this
case acted as clerk Of-the.work, kept
account Of material and time, o., K.ed
bills, etc., and then a large portion OF
the work has been that of heating and
ventilation engineer, where the COM
pensRtiOn Is often considerably above 8
per cent.
If the Rep. wishes to champion the
cause Of honesty, why isn't 1t henest2
Why don't 1t tell of the costly bridge
built In Sugar Creek township by Re-
publican Commissioners where there
was no road and no bridge was neces-
saryp
Why don't 1t tell Its readers that
while Commissioner Smith has been on
the board the large debt left by Repub-
lican Commissioners In the bridge fund
has been reduced $l0,0O0p
A newspaper which claims 30 much
honesty as the Rsp. should tell Its read
ers that half million Of dollars have
been added to the tax duplicate by the
exertiOns of Smith and his cotempor-
aries In searching out those parties who
NEGLECTED" to properly list their pro-
perty.
Let the Rep. explain If 1t can, for
many Republicans want to know, why
1t was that Henry Shsffer so suddenly
left the railroad emplOyp Truth is
mighty, as the Rep. ring will realize
when they learn of the result Of next
Tuesdays election.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1886-10-28

CAN any one give rational reason for
the villainous attacks of the Republican
Mckinley ring organs on Commissioner
Smith and the architect, Guy TlIden.
OF course there is motive. There ls
an interest somewhere. There is a
scheme back of 1t all, and schemers also
that run the Repository.
Why should Mr.. Tilden be assaiIed
unless 1t is that he Is In the way of the
Reps Akron msnp His work will COM
pare favorsbly with our cracked city
buildings for which full price was paid,
with extras, and approved by the Rep.
Being q truth telling Republican the
ring are trying to crush Mr.. Tilden and
get him out Of their way.
Mr. Tilden aroused the Ire Of the gang
still more by coming out in card in
defence of Commissioner Smith when
they began their villainous lies about
that worthy gentleman. O; course
Architect Tilden knows what he Is talk
ing about and fears them not.
The DEMOCRAT charged the Repository
with inhumanity In opposing a new In
Urinary that was a necessity, and could
not and should not be delayed. That
sheet hastened to declare 1t was In favor
Of building suitable infirmary, admit
ting 1t was needed. 1t also, with its
usual silly conceit claimed credit for
the new insane department.
The Rep. was not willing to give
Commissioner s-hith and Architect TIL
den any credit for the new and splendid
building for the insane that cost but ten
thousand dollars and is not cracked like
our city building, nor propped and bound
with rods to keep 1t from falling, like
our engine building. Great Is the
"Young Napoleon" blOwgunl What a
shyster, contemplate sheet
But the Rep. continues to ocharge Com
missioner Smith with the intention to
build 100000 lnfirmary. as though he
was the whole board. or course the
lying ring organ gives not particle of
truth, but hopes by this lying to elect
Its whole county ticket. Foraker & Co.
started out In this way, but his peniten-
tiary stuff has brought him to shame aud
contempt.
The result Of the election In Stark
will show that the Rspository's shallow
nonsense and lying yarns have not de-
feated the Democratic ticket.

A COSTLY bridge in sugarcresk town.
ship was erected by Republican Com
missioners a few years ago and never
was used. There was no road where 1t
was built, and none was ever laid out.
This was a sample of Republican man
agement that the Repository approved
Of.

Guy T1DBN, architect, moved 10 Cam

church, Of the Huntington building and

stay and will not leave to accommodate
the Rep. and its plundering gang.
Mr.. Tilden was not the architect Of the
city buildings. If he had been they
would have been very different from
what they are.
