SINCE the death of Gen. Sherman,
Gen. John M. Palmer becomes the most
conspicuous living soldier of the war of
the Rebellion. He was not only Gen
eral on the fields of war, but he is a
man of high attainments in civil life, a
thorough student of political history
of high character and unquestioned pa.
triotism. And yet the entire body of
Republicans in the Illinois legislature
have gone into a deal with the three
Farmers Alliance members, in order
to defeat Gen. Palmer for us Senator.
In order to beat this grand old Demo
cratic soldier, they have agreed to vote
for man of very ordinary attain
ments, and in whose principles they do
not believe Evidently the Republi-
cans of Illinois are hard nation. An
old soldier and a yellow dog appear to
have about equal merit in their avid
ious eyes.

TAXPAYERS, politicians of the Re
publican faith, real esta men, house
owners, patriots, and all others inter
ested III the future progress and pros
perity of Canton, would do well not to
make too much ado over our taxes, for
the purpose of defeating the election
of Democratic Council. There are
great many persons now living III Can
ton, who remember only four years ago,
when the whole population seemed to
demand the improvement of the city
by general sewerage and paving sys-
TEN, such as the Democratic Council
has inaugurated and is now carrying
forward. No one supposed for a mo.
ment, at that time, that this could be
done without cost, and few believed
then that if the work was done, those
who howled loudest for its execution,
would, for political gain, seek to destroy
the party that they appealed to so pit
eously to serve their ends. Before we
get to the next election we shall have
full and fair discussion of all these
matters and things that so materially
concern the future of this city.

order to pay higher wages"

ARAPTIsM oF BLOOD.

Our old time Abolitionist, Reuben
Erwin, is out in the Canton Leader
with an awful prediction. He thinks
the tendency of affairs now Is towards
the bad, both socially and politically,
and he predicts bloodshed, unless the
people take warning of the coming
wrath of God. Herefers to prediction
made by an old Abolition leader in lS4o,
that before twelve years this Nation
will see a baptism. of blood. Here let
us quote from Mr.. Erwin:
"The above prediction was made
when the capital of our country was
market for the sale of human beings,
when men and women were sold as are
cattle and swine now. But what shall
be said of our present time, our pres.
ent Administration believe that not
during all the reign of slavery, nor at
any time since, have we had a Presi-
dent who has done so much to enconr-
age and uphold the liquor traffic,
as the man who now occupies the
distinguished chair. At his inaugura
ton one thousand liquor sellers
marched in the procession, and his ap'
pointments of liquor men or sympathlz
ers with the traffic, have been notorious,
from the appointment of Judge Brewer
to the Supreme bench, down to the ap.
pointment of the license commissioners
of Washington, who were the best
friends of the traffic that could be found
in the city. Large aud strong petitions
were presented to him, praying that he
would appoint temperance menin their
stead, but to no purpose. Then at the
great banquet at the White House, he
supplied five different kinds of wine
for his gdests-four more varieties
than Belschazzar provided for his
Thousand lords. And like the Chaldean
King, President Harrison drank his
wine before the assembled multitude.
Can you not read the handwriting on
the wall ?"

THE Republican newspaper organs
of Canton should refer to the splendid
reform administration the Republicans
the city. A list of the sewers and pave
ments they built, without taxation, and
the moral influences they shed over the
valley of the Nimishillen, would be far
more reputable than the style of mis-.
representation slander and indiscrimi-
nate blackguardism now in vogue.

viii Leave Canton and Return to
Columbus.


DR.. Nichols, the well known specialist
of this city, will i'm short time leave Can
ton and return to Columbus, where he was
located more than two years. Columbus
is q greater and better field for the Doctor,
for he possesses energy, enterprise and
eminent qualifications that belong to but
few in his profession. This accounts for
his determination to remove 10 that city.
The Doctor came to our city last fall, and
from that time his practice began to in
crease, and continued as his acquaintance
extended and his qualifications became
known. He does not claim to perform
miracles but to cure durable cases. Many
of his cures are remarkable, it is true, and
show a skill quite commensurate with his
great success and widely.known popular
ity. The community is 10th to part with
such a skilled physician, but our loss will
be Columbus gain, for she will have
skilled physician, a splendid neiphbor,
and, withal, a gentleman. Saturday,
March 14th will be the last of the Doctors
stay in our city for the present, he may re-
turn in the near future. Those wishing
to consult him should do so at once, as
the last days of his stay his Office is liable
to be so crowded that all may not be able
to obtain hearing.

TTTVTTT N0ITTVTV7TVIVIT'T
The conclusion is inevitable that Mr.
Cleveland is not and has not been a
candidate for denomination, and he has
taken this method of so assuring the
Dem ocratic party. 1t is not, as might
be supposed by some who donot under
stand the situation, round about way
of announcing that lie is not candi-
date for the Democratic denomination
in 1892. On the contrary, it is pecul-
iarly blunt and direct method, and the
blindest hero-worshlper in this country
can not misunderstood it.

Do not forget the fact that the House
Of Representatives of Ohio has just
passed bill to wipe out the present
city government of Cleve-

Remember, this bill passed unanimous

plan of certain Republicans of Canton
who favor new party here to wipe out
the present Republican party. How
this world does Whirl around.

AN AUTHORITATIVE ExPLANA-
TON.
[From the indianapolis sentlnol,l

In his speech at Toledo on the 18th
inst. MOjOr Mckinley boldly declared
that the purpose of Protection was to
make things dear. lie, said that the
object of his bill was mot for the peo
pie to buy goods at lower rates, but to
enable them to pay more for the same
goods by raisiug their wages" We
commend this explanation to our Re-
publican contemporaries who are COM
planning of daily reports of increased
prices. If Mr.. Nc Kirley does not know
what his bill is for, who does?

scioto Republicans Don't Want any More
Protection.
Prom the Portsmouth Press.

The Press took occasion long ago to
submit that Mckinley, brilliant as he
is, is not the man to run for Governor
of Ohio next fall. There is no occasion
to fight tariff battle in the individual
States, and the nomination of McKin-
ley would mean tariff fight. 1t is to
be hoped that Scioto county will not
send a Mckinley delegation to the
State convention.

for it, and not Republican farmer

Mckinley is doomed for Governor. All
right, you Republicans are welcomesto
Mckinley as candidate. That will

an easy mark. Governor Campbell
will have smooth sailing for a second

HOW OUR IDOL LOST SOME OF. HIS
REPUTATION,
From the Springfield Democrat.

The history of legislation In this
country does not contain the record of
an important measure so execrable, so
laundering, so full of fabsurdities, errors
and contradictions as the Mckinley
bill. There is hardly asubject that Is
made clear--hardly passage that will
not have tobe passed upon by the Su-
preme court. Previous to the passage
of the bill Mr.. Mckinley was looked
upon by men of all parties as possessed
of a large measure of political sagacity
and information. If he has lost this
reputation he has only himself to thank
for it,
