In swearing in the April Grand Jury
Judge Cowing, in his charge, added an
other chapter to to the Gould-Sage
matter, and warned the Grand Jury to
Beware of persons who sneaked around
the Grand Jury room and wanted peo-

He continued: "The Grand Jury is
constantly investigating cases which
involve the life and liberty of the citi-

with great care the evidence adduUed,
as well as the motives Of the witnesses,
in order to avoid being made the in
strument of oppression by designing
complainants, who, from revenge or
avarice, seek to have persons indicted
without Just cause. The Grand jury
should calmly, dispassionately and i'm
partially investigate the alleged crime
brought before them in the words of
the oath administered to your foreman;
you should present no person from
envy, hatred or malice, nor should you
leave any one unpresented through fear
favor, affection or reward or hope there
of; but you should present all things
truly as they come to your knowledge,
according to the best Of your under
standing. When you enter upon the
discharge of your duties close your
door against vindictive, avancious ard
dishonest complaints, as well as against
public clamor, come from where it may.
Never lose sight of the fact that you
are dealing with questions involving
human life and liberty. You can afford
to receive any amount of unfair and
unjust criticism for doing right, but
you cannot afford to do wrong for any
amount of undeserved praise. The
Grand Jury must indict on legal evil

White learned the printing art in the
Repository Office near 70 years ago,
coming from Tuscarawas county where
his parents lived. He rambled few
years as jour printer and in 1897 came
to Pittsburg. He lived in Illinois a
few years, but in 1910 returned to Pitts
burg, and bought the Gazette, which ne
retired from about % years ago. lie

churchman and philanthropist. He
came of New England Puritan stock
and his father, Ebenezer White, served
through the revolutionary war, and was

THE Minnesota Farmers Alliance,
adopted resolutions the other day, in
dorsing President Clevelands tariff pol
icy and demanding the repeal of Gus
toms taxation of raw material and the
necessaries of life. Copies of the resO-
lutions will be forwarded to Minneso-
ta's representatives in congress. They
read as follows:
RESOLVED, That we heartily indorse
President Cleveland's views on the
tariff issue.
RESOLVED, That the so-called pro
tective tariff is an iniquitous tax on
the people for the benefit Of monOpo.
lists and trusts and we demand its i'm
mediate repeal on all raw materials
and the necessaries of life.
The alliance has also issued an ad
dress to the farmers of the State tax
ing the same ground. The strong rev
enue reform speech made in the house
last week by Mr.. Nelson, Republican
of Minnesota, is in line with the reso
lutions of the alliance. Mr.. Nelson il
leader of the Scandinavian popula
ton of the State, represents Northern
Minnesota, and in 1886 was elected t,
congress without much opposition, re
ceiving plurality of 42,698.

A REPUBLICAN TARIFF REFORM
mr.

Is Congressman Nelson, of Minnesota.
In his speech in the House a few days
ago he read letters from Republicans
of his State who Endorsed his position.
Mr.. Charles A, Pillsbury,a lifelong and
prominent Republican, and one Of the
leading business men and chief flour
manufacturers of Minneapolis, wrote
Mr.. Nelson and said: "Your course
has met with the cordial approval of
nearly all the people of the State, espec-
tally on the tariff question. l think it
safe to say that 80 per cent. of the Dem
ocrats and IS per cent. of the Republi,
cans agree with you" Among other
letters which Mr.. Nelson read-"not
from 'blarsted Englishmen,' but from
living, active Republicans in the great
West"-was one from Earle s. You
mans, of WinOna, Mimi, who said:
AS a lumber manufacturer let me
thank you for including that product
in your bill, and as one Of the largest
wool growers in the State, except that
itmIGht embarrass the measure, would
be glad to see wool included also. 1t
will require cheek to vote against yOul
hill. and the member from the West
who does it will find it difficult to just.
ify himself to constituency that is
becoming educated upon this question
But the gem of the collection was
this letter from D. Peterson, of Madi
SOD, Wis:
Your amendment of the tariff, as
published in the papers, is Just the
thing, as far as it goes; but for Gods
sake amend it by putting wool in the
free list. Don't be afraid of the bIeat
ing of the sheep or their owners; and Il
there is anything in Gods world thai
needs cheapening, it is wOolen goods IL
this cold country. God speed you.

that may interest our glass manufac
/ turers: ...
DULUTH, Mimi, March 8, 1888.
DEAR SIR-We write you at thl
time to urge you to do all you can t.
reduce the duty on window glass to tn,
smallest amount possible. We hav.
been at the mercy of the Pittsburgh
manufacturers long enough. You ma,
not know that the duty on common
window glass is more than the cost o
it in Antwerp, Belgium, but such is tn
fact. Very truly yours,

THE Repository claims the Repuo-
lican vote was not out in Canton, and
hence the result, etc.
If the vote had been out more
fully, it might have been worse
instead of better. The fact is,
Congressman McKinley's wool
tariff business is pretty well seen
through in this locality. This harp OF
thousand strings does not take as for
merly. The music don't draw; "pro'
lection" don't protect, as laboring men
know to their sorrow.
But, really, the probability is the Re
publican vote on Monday was out quite
as well as the Democratic; and thell
workers were active. Winfield RAM
thought he was going in as trustee sure
and John S. Melbourne did not dream
or defeat in the Seventh ward.
In the Fifth ward, for example, il
the vote on Council Mr.. Loichot got D
Republican votes and his opponent
Democratic votes. This will accoun
for Mr.. Loichot's large majority, and ]
evidence that his services in the Cour
Gil are appreciated. This also apple
to Mr.. Volkmann and others on th
Democratic ticket who were compl
mented in the same way.
The fact is, the high tariff 'prote'
tion-for -American-labor" humbug hi
J seen its best days.

THE Plain Dealer says Congressman
Mckinley is the ablest man the tariff
Republicans have in Congress, but he
makes out a very weak case in his re-
port accompanying the Mills tariff bill.
The burden of his essay is that free
wool would ruin the wool growing in
dustry of Ohio, but Mr.. Kinley does
not make clear how he knows that. His
argument rests upon assumptions that
are false and misleading,

A NEEDED PROJECT
About to Assume a Tangible Shape,
Because the
Cleveland, Lorain q Wheeling Railway
I. Company Win Build Branch From
Millport to Canton, vile the
Meyer Lake Property.

Mr.. w. B. Hanlon, Chief Engineer of
the Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling Rail
road accompanied by few other gen
tlemen, are in the city today. The
object Of their visit is unknown save
to one or two gentlemen, but a DEMO
oRAT was able to obtain few particu-
lars, which are given below.
The Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling
Railroad Company contemplate build
ing a branch road from Massillon to
Canton, via Meyers Lake,
Mr.. Hanlon and corps of assistants
are out today looking over the ground
with a view to ascertanilg the most
practicable route.
This project, of course, will depend
for its success in a measure upon the
encouragement given by the citizens OF
Canton, and when it is understood that
that such branch would give incrcas-
ed and better shipping facilities, we
have no doubt that the necessary sup
port will be heartily given.
This branch road would run through
a most fertile and wealthy country, and
would be the connecting link between
the Tuscarawas and Nimishillen Val
leys. 1t would be built from Massillon
to this city via Millport and Meyers
Lake, a distance of some eight miles
This would give Canton an outlet in
an entirely new direction, and by con-
nection with the Lake Shore & Michi-
gan Southern railway at Elyria, ship.
ping could be done through to Chicago
and the. Northwest The G., LIS W.
railway has docks at Lorain, which is
indisputably one of the best, if not the
hest barbor on Lake Erie, and merchan
disc or c )al for the lake traffic or points
along the five great lakes could be emp
tied into vessels at Lorain with greai
dispatch.
Passengers could get into the cars il
this city, and by the transfer at Elyrii
with the Lake Shore road, could go II
Chicago or to points along the LAX
Shore without change of cars.
In addition, this new enterprls
would give competition in rates OF far
between Massillon and Canton, whlcl
will be of great benefit to the people o
the two cities. At present the onl
road running to Canton and Massillol
is the Fort Wayne, and competing
road would give increased facilities
especially to the legal business OF Mas
sillon and Canton, besides being of ben
eft to business men and the travelin
public.
The ultimate object of the Co l..
W. is to extend the line east to Pitts
burgh, and surveys for the same wi
progress right along. This road woul
run directly through the richest COZ
lands in the State, and would increas
the business of eur city to an enormou
extent.
1t behoves everyone to put his shou
der to the wheel, and when the prOpt
time comes, lend every encouragement
to the success of the enterprise. b
so doing, the prosperity of Canton, no
the pride of her citizens, will multipl
rapidly until she stands in the foremo
rank of the progressive cities of Anne
lea.
