MAssILLoN, June 25.--The subscrib-
,ers of the DEMOCRAT are perhaps
aware that the management OF the
paper in Massillon has changed hands.
They should also know that newspaper
men are not omnipresent, and any In
formation and communications con-
corning news matters will be consider
ed favOrs by the new correspondent,
Gust Paul. Any failure to receive
papers will be promptly remedied upon
complaint.
A runaway team belongingto Erhard
81 Shmke, the brewers, came tearing
down Erie street and completely routed
the Salvation Army. The horses were
caught on Exchange street without
having done any damage, although
there ware some narrow escapes. Jesse
Dulabaum. the driver. was thrown from
his seat on turning a corner and severe
ly bruised.
A prominent Democrat expresses the
opinion that never in the history OF
Massillon were the Democrats so well
OF panized as now. The Young Mems
Democratic Club sin a tlourishingc con
dition, and embracing as it does the
best and most energetic young men III
town, promises to do some good work
this fall. The repeated efforts to Or
Vanize a Republican club here have
proven dismal failures.
Next Thursday Rev. Jas. Kuhn, pas
tor of the German Catholic church, VIII
celebrate his silver jubilee, the twenty
fifth anniversary of his ordination to
the priesthood. Father Kuhn is a just
" popular clergyman and the congre-
cation. societies and his friends in gen
eral have been active for some time
preparing to celebrate it in a fitting
manner. The program will be pub
lished later.
Que hears the sentiment freely eX-
pressed by Republicans here that Blaine
will yet be nominated. The thought is
father TO the wish, for Blaine has al
WAYS been strong here, despite the Ell
for s of the leaders to turn the tide to-
wards Sherman. If Mckinley is uOmi-
mated the sanity Of the Republicans
will not be answered for. The Demo
Ocrats regard Il e whole matter with a
none-of-Our-tuneral air.
