foot of which is seen the Senate end Of
our National Capitol. Foraker is Just

sled, while John is astride barrel OF

Propose to Make machines OF men.
From the Chicago Herald.
w. l. Squire, president of the Ohio
Repub ican State League, was one OF
the patriots who attended the secret
meeting of officers of Republican clubs
in this city Saturday. While here Mr,
Squire made some remarks for publ
cation watch are reported by n Repub-
lican contemporary as follows: I'VE
have already begun the campaign OF
education in Ohio for the campaign of
1892 1t is cheaper to educate voters
than to buy them, and the results are
far more satisfactory. BY next July
we will have the young Republicans OF
Ohio in uniform rs marching CLUBS. IL
will be regular military BODY and will
make votes.".
From this we may learn two or three
things For one we may learn that
in the view of the chief of the Ohio
league of the party of great moral
ideas the only objections to buying
voters are that IL cgstS too much and
that the results are not entirely
satisfactory, for the reason, OF course,
that bought votes are slippery, and are
as likely as not to go to anOtL,r party
next time. In the opinion of this light
of the Republican party there is no OBJ
lection to buying votes as great moral
idea.
We may learn, for another thing,
something about the Republican great
moral idea of educating voters. All
you have to do is to organize them into
clubs, put them into military drill, pro-
vide them with cheap uniform, Il tin
hadua aud n torch and gpt them tO
marching and bowling. If you want
to store young mans mind with in
formation and lead him to a rational
conviction on great economic question
such as the tariff, all you have To do is
to put him in the hands of q military
drillmaster. If you wish to eulighten
him on any important subject of states
manship and public policy attach tin
label to his breast, give him torch and
send him yelling through the streets. In
that way you educate him up to en-.
lightened citizenship. That is another
moral idea

A Complete and Perfect Establishment.


The Canton NEwS-DEMoCRAT ap-
peared Saturday, December IL, from its
new home and published fine picture
of the building. 1t is four aud one
half story structure of stone, brick and
iron, and the finest building in the con-
siderable city where it is located. The
paper evidences the success which is
attending General Sherwood in his new
location and warrants the belief that
the paper is among the m Ost substantial,
as 1t is among the best of those issued
in the lesser cities OF Ohio. The entire
building is occupied by the several de.

of starting new church paper, in line
with the new theology" as interpreted

themselves up as infalible guides of
doctrine and practice, There is wide
field for such paper.
