The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1891-01-22

WHEN Mckinley, yesterday charged
the Democrats with carrying the cleo
tions by the suppression of votes, pre-
sumably negro votes in the South, he
made ludicrous display of ignorance
Commenting on this bad break the
Plain Dealer makes some strong points
as follows:
"The fact is that if the next House
were made up exclusively of Represen-
tatives of Northern States, keeping out
every member from a State south Of
Mason and Dixon's line, the Republi-
cans would be outnumbered more than
two to one. 1t was in the Northern
States that the Republicans were
defeated last November and it
was by northern votts that the
Democrats secured control of the next
house. Does Mr.. Mckinley pretend
that "the votes of thousands and hun
dreds of thousands of citizens" we--
suppressed in the forTeriy Republican
States of the west and northwest where
the Republican ticket was buried under
the heavy anti-Republican majorities ?
/ How came they suppressed" where the
con troll of election affairs was com.
pletely in Republican handsY In Mr.
McKinley's own district were Republi-
can votes Suppressed? Was he not
defeated in spite of pressure applied TO
suppress" Democratic majority and
convert it into majority for him by
'suppressing" the wages of workmen
who insisted Oh their right 10 vote

GENERAL J. NJ. PALMER of Illinois,
the coming United States Senator from
that State, by unanimous Democratic
choice, has brilliant military record
When the (irst call for troops was
made he was made Colonel of the Four
teen Illinois, going at oncet to North
ern Missouri, where the regiment saw
much hard service. He was at the en-
gagements at Island No. 10 and Fort
Pillow. At the battle of FarriDgton
he won fame as a brilliant commander
ana a brave soldier. At the battle of
Stone River he again distinguished
hin self and won his maJor-generars
stars. He resigned in 1866, and in the
Summer Of that year moysdto Spring
field. In the following year his friends
urged him for United States Senator,
but he made no fort for the place,
and John A. Logan was chosen. In
1868 he was the Republican candidate
for Governor, against his most earnest
protest. and was triumphantly elected.
He was a Democrat before the war, and
at the close of his Gubernatorial term
went back to the Democrats, because OF
Grants centraliz ltion policy. One of
the leading causes of his opposition to
Grant was because the President had
permitted Gen. Sheridan to use four
companies Of United States soldiers as
police after the great fire in Chicago,
thus rejecting upon the ability of the
State to maintain order.

BAD CASE OF COLD swEATs.

The Canton NEws.DEMoCRAT attrib-
utes all the ills of life to the Mckinley
law. 1t needs a cold sweat Alliance
Review.
According to all our Western Repub-
lican exchanges, the Republican party
is having cold sweats over this law.
Senator ingalls,, of Kansas, late acting
Vice President for the Republican
party, has been having cold sweats over
it, ever since last November.
And now according to Foraker (who
lead the Republicans of Ohio in four
memorable .campaigns) 1t will give the
Republicans of Ohio cold sweats to
nominate the author of the Mckinley
tariff for Governor of Ohio.
For the past three months we have
had over 100000 in excess of the
previous years, for same length of time,
in failures, which has given quite a
large number of business men the cold
sWeats.
Some $4,000 working men have had
their wages reduced from 8 to II per
cent, since the Mckinley bill passed,
which has given thousands of poor
women and children the cold sweats.
The latest from Washington indi-
Gates that Reed and Mckinley are also
all icted with cold sweats, and if we get
reliable new from Alliance the chuckle
head of the Review has been having
these sweats regularly every day ever
since the boodlers failed to purchase
the 10th district for his boss.

BUT a few weeks ago Senator ingalls,
was the idol of the Jacobins of the g.

merely from reading his lurid harrangue
in favor of free silver coinage, that the
orator was himself one of the wealth
lest men in all Kansas, and had never
denied the public accusation of loaning
money to the poor farmers, whose
votes he now seeks so frantically, at lS
per cent. a year." And yet this Is per
cent Shylock has been, like our own
sweet VIM. Mckinley, the idol of his
party, the pet of the boodlers, for years
and years. Now what's the matter
with ingalls,. Why, he has mustered
enough courage to tell the truth about
tie men who are his associates in Con-
press,
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1891-01-22

As we understand Mr.. Foraker, he
don't want to talk high tariff in Ohio

Kinley tariff made prominent issue.
He wants to talk State matters. Hence
he wants some man nominated for
Governor who is not committed oflic.

Mckinley monstrosity. Foraker is in
favor of some man like Asa Bushnell
of Springfield, or Representative Grif
fin of Toledo, who is not mixed up with
