Fassatt.s Grave Charge.

About the most remarkable thing In con-
nection With the recent election In New
York is the charge which Mr. Fassett, who
was the republican candidate for governor,
makes against members Of his own party.
| The charge Is that Thousands Of republicans
in the interor counties were bribed with
| Tammany money not to vote Such charge
Of wholesale corruption against his own
! party shows that he has a very low opinion
i Of the morals Of republican voters.
! Mr.. Fassett is not alone in making this
charge Other prominent republicans have
made it mot only In published interviews, but
also in letters which have found their way
into print The comment on the charge
must be that the state was fortunate in es-
Gaping from the control Of a party whose
members are SO corrupt, and care so little
for its principles as to assist in its defeat for
a few dollars.
No proof has been furnished Of the truth
of the charge. and it is pretty safe to say
that none will be. Mr.. Fassett and his
friends do not seem to think it necessary to
name any Of the alleged bribe takers, or to
submit evidence to the public proving that
money was received In any county Of the
state to be used for corrupt purposes
Should Mr.. Fassett ever again be a candi-
date for an elective Office IN New York the
republican voters in all probability would
recall the opinion he entertained Of their Do
htical morality and would show him that it
is not necessary for them to be paid to absent
themselves from the polls when he is a can
didate
Mr. Fassett was one of the members OF
the New York legislature who were particu-
larly active in having the ballot reform law
passed. He declared that such law was
needed to prevent the democrats from car
rying the elections by bribing voters to
cast their ballots for democratic candidates.
The law was enacted, but still he is not sat-
is1ed. According to his story voters are
not now bribed to vote, but bribed not to
| vote. Probably he will try to get the legis-
lature at its next session to amend the bal
| lot reform law 80 as to make the bribing of
voters to remain away from the polls q
| crime.
His charge, however, against the repub-
iican voters is virtual admission that the
members Of the Republican party are the
offenders against the laws prohibiting the
acceptance Of brides in elections, and this
admission goes long way toward relieving
Tammany Of the odium which the repub-
lican stump speakers sought to cast upon 1t
in the last political campaign.
Before the election Mr.. Fassett declared
that Tammany was corrupt through and
through, and the Republican party was
purity itself. After the election he declares
that it was corruption in his own party that
defeated him. BE ought now to devote a
| good deal of his time toward raising the
moral standard Of the members of bis

Brunswick's Dseu Water Project.

Brunswick has determined to try to get
deep water channel TO the sea without the
aid Of the government. Her council has
accepted the proposition Of Col. Goodyear
to which attention was called in the MORN
ING NEws few days ago. The original
proposition has been modified in one respect.
As accepted by the council Col. Goodyear
agrees to open channel 25 feet deep and $50
feet wide across the outer bar within
the next ten months, and to keep it open for
six months. In the original proposition he
was to keep 1t open three months. In con-
sideration of this work the city agrees to
transfer to him ninety-nine year lease Of
certain lands which are not now valuable,
but which will become SO if he succeeds in
his undertaking.
The MORNING NEWS suggested when it
first noticed Col. Goodyear's proposition,
that it would be advisable to require
the channel to be kept open three years. In
that time the question whether the channel
would remain open without assistance
would be definitely settled.
The council thought that IL the channel
remained open six months after being COM
pleted the question Of its permanency
would be satisfactory determined, and
it may be that it was right
The chance for securing deep water on such
favorable terms was one that the city could
not well afford to miss. If the experiment
proves to be failure the city willlose moth
ing, and il it proves to be a success it will
secure great and lasting benefit at very
small cost.
in her efforts to secure deep water, and she
deserves to succeed. She certainly has the
best wishes of this port for her success

An opulent and fair-minded Pennsyl-
vania thief stole corn from farmer near
Mechanicsburg the other day and left in the
crib handsome gold hunting-csse watch
with his coat and vest Whether that was
done by way of squaring accounts or merely
through mistake is not altogether plain.
But the owner is not likely to demand a
correction of the error. Should he ever
recover that ''hunky watch" again it will
probably be in the same way he got the
corn. And he should not fail to leave a
grand piano in place of IL.

Justice from the Judge.

Brutal practices are becoming alto
gether too ocommon IN the medical profession
While walking ona Maryland railway tr ack
recently one Frank Laffan fell through a
cattle guard and was badly cut on his leg.
When friends took him to County Physician
Craigen at Cumberland he dressed the
wound and put in several stitches to close
the laceration. Then he demanded 50 under
a threat of undoing his work if it wss not
Immediately paid. This astonished the men.
Knowing him to be the county physician
under a salary they did not expect charge
and had no money to pay. Thereupon the
brutal doctor deliberately cut open the
wound of the helpless man. Now it does
seem that the law should be able to handle
such q barbarian. When he cut open that
wound he willfully committed an assault
within the intent of the law apd inflicted an
injury that his previous services gave him
no right to infiict. No man should be
allowed to jeopardize the life of another
merely because he chances to be physician
and wants to collect bill. Having treated
mans ailments does not give him the right
to in jure that man afterward and the vim
dictive Maryland surgeon should be made
to suffer severely for his inhuman crafti-
ness.

Lightning played some queer pranks upon
Indianians at Shelbyville the other day All
the business portion of the city was sud-
denly thrown into fever of excitement
about O'Clock in the evening by the yells
of a man at the entrance of the Hotel Ray.
Soon hundreds of people were on the spot.
Merchant Charles Huffman was first on the
scene and finding William Louden lying
PROSTATE on the stone front gasping for
breath took bold of him to raise him to his
feet. But Huffman was also thrown upon
his back in the middle of the sidewalk.
While heavy rain was falling it was dis
covered that all the business buildings on
the public square were heavily charged
with electricity from arc light wires.
Louden had taken hold of an iron
post on the veranda Of the
hotel and received a terrific shock. Fortu-
nately ne fell on step. This caused him
to roll away from the post and thus saved
his life. Until the rain ceased the electric
current had to be shut off. Many persons
were slightly shocked by stepping on the
gratings at the entrance of buildings and in
water on the sidewalks In fact it was a
very shocking occurrence.

Bill Young is bad man-at least there is
verdict to that effect that has been
hanging over the community for
some time. just what Bill ever did to
give him this distinction, we know not.
Probably he was fair example of the oft
quoted proverb "Give dog bad name etc"
Howbeit, the climax of his Napoleon career
was reached last Saturday in Mayor Meeki-
sons court when he was arraigned before
this dignitary on the charge of disturbance,
fighting, using improper language and sew
eral others, that proved the prisoner to have
made himself generally disagreeable and OBJ
noxious to those taking in the fair. His
honor fined him $25 and 81 days in the stone
yard at Toledo. To give Bill chance to
leave town and do better by another route,
the Mayor stayed execution of the sentence
Tor Jwenty-tour hours giving him the privi-
lege to leave town within that time without
an officer. There was proviso however that
such sentence should be open on the Mayor S
docket for enforcement at any time Young
should appear in Napoleon in the future.
1t goes without saying that the setting sun
beheld Bills form fleeing the gates of the

The San Francisco Merchant under the
caption of "No more Drummers" says:
The travelling men in California object to
the use of the word drummer" as applied
to members of their profession, and move
ment is on foot to abolish the term. In olden
times, when it was the wont of quacks, fakirs
and itinerant mountebanks to make periodi-
cal visits to country towns on market days,
they would beat big drum to call up
crowd. This was termed drumming for
trade" and it is presumed, and in fact gen.
orally accepted, that this is the origin of the
offensive name. 1t is strange that in Eng
land, where the expression was first born, it
is now unheard of in connection with COM
mercial travellers, In that country travelling
salesmen are called "bagmen," or "knights of
gripsack," but in no instance would any of
the fraternity countenance such an applica-
tion as that of drummer
That may do very we'll for the Pacific slope
but out here in Ohio this class of business
people will always be known as ''drummers,' u
while afew very uncharitable folk invariably
refer to them as Summers" knights ot
hilarity" etc. These shafts take but little
effect, however, for the travelling man il
steadily climbing to the front. The time was
when he was target for rebuffs and was figur.
atively compelled to "drum up trade" but
that time has been placed on an obscure shell
and classed with the past. He isthe one court
ed for the merchant realizes the convenience
in ordering goods in his own store from the
drummer, instead of laying off couple oi
weeks to so do. The drummer if an evil, is 6
necessary one but however high he may
climb in the social or financial would the title
| drummer will freeze closer to him than q
brother. It has come to stay.
