m,KINLEY's OILY vERBIAeE.
Frnm the plttshnrz POST.

GOVERNOR MCKINLEY of Ohio, In
his inaugural address INDUCED in a
great deal of cheap political morality
on the evils of gerrymaudering, taking
az his text the existing Democratic
congressional apportionment under
which the Democrats elected ID mem
bers and the Republicans z. The gov
ernor talked like q copy.book on the
subject, and urged his Republican
friends to make a new apportionment
so Just in its arrangements that When
the Democrats returned to power, as
they always do in Ohio every two or
three years, Republican fairness would
80 win their hearts they would make no
attempt to change 1t. "See what truly
good man we have in the governors
chair" was Republican comment on
Mckinley non-partisan apportionment
psalm-singing.
But not for long. The able. bodied
gerrymander has been at work, and in
stead of the thing of beauty aud sweet
ness advised by Governor Mckinley, a
gnarled and twisted and crooked and
unfair division has been agreed on by
the Republican steering committee and
will pass the legislature. 1t gives the
Republicans 16 districts and the Demo-
Gratis 8, division as atrociously unfair
as could be made out of the wood. OF
course it is what was expected, for no
one was deceived by Governor McKin.
ley's appeal for square deal. He was
perfectly safe in gong on the record in
favor of 1t. He knew his party would
devise the worst swindle within their
reach. His advise would not have been
rendered had he believed iJ would be
accepted.
A perfectly fair division of Ohio in
the election of congressman would give
the Democrats 10 members and the Re
publicans IL. For twenty years the
majority either party has received in the
State has not equalled oue.half the
voting population of the average con-
gressioI al districts. The Republicans,
carrying the State most frequently, are
entitled to the odd number.

4 G. A. II. man who has read State
Chaplain Hettie j. Clark's interview on
the Xenia Womens Council is some
what surprised. He wants to know
whether the News DEMOCRAT man in
terviewed her as private citizen or as
representative of the NEws-DEMo.
Graf, We answer that our man was
introduced as representative of this
paper, and that she talked to him
as such representative. 1t is evident
that Chaplain CLARK has changed her
mind since the Xenia episodes, as Mr..
Seton has evidently changed his, since
he has heard from the West End,
through "Veteran". Certainly there is
nothing remarkable about all this.
Without change there could be no
progress, either in nature, morals or
ethics, which is the science of human
duty.

CHICAGO, Feb. Corn oil is product
of a new industry that has been estab-
ished in Chicago. 1t is being manu-
factured by the Chicago Sugar Refining
company at the rate of 800 gallons q
day. Corn oil is not the dark red fluid
which is so generally taken from the
staple cereal, but is soft, yellow,
greasy liquid, that very much resembles
linseed oil in appearance, and in other
ways is very much like that article.
This city is the only place in the world
where the oil is being manufactured,
but it is only because desirable process
of separating the oil from the corn was
not discovered until last fall.

demonstrated their ire. The students
complain that the military instruction
given them is made as important part
of their study as any other matter, in
asmuch as marks are given for it AZ for
other subjects. Thus athletic dullartis
obtain marks equal TO talented students
OF weak physique. The direct cause of
the outbreak is that the usual annaul

THE revenue collector had no right

which this decision ia based is that it is

fully provides that such as Vanderbilt
