OWLlSH OUTLOOK FOR MORGAN,

Our much-esteemed cotemporary, the
Alliance Review perpetrates the
following as the reason why
Morgan hogged the Congressional per-
simmon at Salem:
"Who says it was Stark's greediness
that secured the nomination? Hereis the
Youngstown Telegram, concluding, latter
all,n that Il was because Mahoning had
two candidates; Judge King says it was
Judge Johnson's stubbornness; Judge
johnson says il was Judge Kings selfish
ness; Mr.. Billingsley says he gave 1t to
Stark, and Mr.. Monaghan says he ia
entirely satisfied. The honor was thrust
upon Stark"
This sounds very well, but how about
the statements made by Mr.. Davey Zone
of the most prominent Republicans in
Mahoning) that delegates we're pur'
chased for Mr., Morgan, and that the
result was brought about by corrupt
deal
This is a charge that touches the
manhood, integrity aud patriotism OF
Mr.. Morgan, and it deeply concerns al
our citizens, Democrats as well as Re
publicans. This is Republican dis
trict,and under ordinary circumstances
the Democrats would make no hopeful
fight against any Republican nominee
who secured his nomination in fail
and open contest and who was known
to be a man of character and ability
But when leading Republicans, who
have no axes TO grind, and who partici
pated in the Convention, charge thai
money was used to Decure the result, Il
seems to us that citizens who love fail
and honest political methods are no
bound by the action of the Convention
This is not a personal matter, neitheI
is it Democratic politics, but 1t is
moral question in the domain of politi
cal ethics, brought to the attention o
the public by leading Republicans, wht
participated in the Salem Convention.
For instance, the New Lisbon Jour
nal is a Republican paper, always loya
to the nominees Of the party. Here il
an extract from the Journal of May 81:
"There is dissatisfaction heard on al
sides over the reault and 1t is openlI
declared by prominent Republicans herr
IL the Democrats place good man in tn,
field, Morgan will be defeated at tn
election. II is claimed that Morgan, WHIT
is prominent manufactures 10 opposed
To union labor and is a strong prohibition

HARRISON WILL Be NOMINATED,

ALL but sixteen OF the delegates to
the Minneapolis convention have now
been chosen and on the face of the re-
turns President Harrison looks like a
sure winner of the nomination. The
delegates from Nevada, Arizona, Mon.
tona and Oklahoma are all that remain
to be chosen, or sixteen in all. The
convention will consist of S96 delegates
Of whom 449 will be necessary for a
choice. About $50 have been instruct.
ed for Harrison. Hence Harrison is
within easy reach of the nomination.

In an interview with Gov, Warwick,
published in the Massillonian and
Cleveland Plain Dealer, it appears that
he is not candidate in the new dis
trict, although he expresses confidence
in our ability to beat Morgan with a
strong nominee. AS we understand
Gov. Warwick's position he does not
desire to make the fight. Should
Gov. Warwick desire the nomination
doubtless he would be nominated by ac-
clamation; but he thinks, as we learn in
directly, that some Democrat from either
Mahoning or Columbiana would poll a
larger vote against Morgan than any
citizen of Stark. j. Twing Brooks of
Salem is being canyassed as a gentle-
man who could probably defeat Nor
gan, but there are doubts whether be
would accept There is no hurry about
fixing on candidate. 1t is over six
months TO the election, and II would be
well for the three Democratic commit
tees of Stark, Columbiana and Mahon-
ing to get together and canvass the
situation, with the available hickory

Still In the Field.

We. "The Central Ohio Buggy Co.."
are still in the field to meet competition.
Is has been decided and first premium
awarded by most OF the county fair judges
at the fairs in Ohio last fall, that the Cen
trail Ohio Buggy, built at Gallon, Ohio, is
the most durable buggy in the market for
the price.
This buggy, wherever it IL is used, talks
foe itself, and wherever q job is sold it
always brings neighbor to buy one of
the same kind or make of the Central
Ohio Buggy Co.
Agents that started with us TO sell our
buggy with three or four years at first
now sell not less than from twenty-five TO
fifty year.
This is the only buggy go far that has
held its own and still increasing in the
& lne territory, which is more than good
mauy companies can say of their work.
PTinted guarantees pasted on every seat
bottom OF every buggy.
You will fnd the respectable and reli-
able firm of Hickman Bros, Lake, Stark
county, Ohio, still selling the Central Ohio
Buggy as their No. ! first class work.

MUCH BAD BLOOD.
Salem Republicans Feel Very
Sore Over MOrgan's Nomina-
tiOn

A Salem special says: The result of the
Congressional convention held in this city
on Friday is unsatisfactory to the great
msjori.y of Republicans. Some causes
that led to it are the following: Colum-
biana and Mahoning counties had each
two candidates, who waged a bitter can
yass prior to and since the primaries for
delegates, still more embittered by Judge
King pushlng his canvass into the county
and capturing twenty-four Columbiana
delegates. The feeling thus engendered
prevented the balance OF them going to
King at the critical moment in the conven.
tion, As the contest lay chiefly between
King and Morgan, Billingsley's delegates
decided TO punish King by going to Nor
gan. Almost universal dissatisfaction Is
the result. the talk everywhere at all
times OF day shows 1t. Republicans speak
without reserve, deprecating the outcome
and treating IL with supreme contempt,
| both in this and Mahoning county. The
probability of 90 Letting an opposing can
didate to unite Democrats, Independents
| and the dissatis aed Republican element
| to defeat Morgan Is hopefully discussed
and believed in by many Republicans
| Tho attitude OF organized labor and the
Order of American Mechanics counted
largely against Morgan.
The outcome for the Republican party
| in this district 10 not propitlous. The at
| tempted rule of a clique in this county
and the ambitious wire pulling and toe

An Interview With Republican County

Auditor Davey OF Mahoning County.
Every Republican In Mahoning county
knows Thomas Il. Davey. He stands at
the head OF the list. He has twice been
elected county auditor and at present
holds that position. Time after time he
has been chairman of the Republican
committee and managed the campaigns.
Here is an interview published in the
Vindicator:
"There never was convention held In
which there was so much evidence of
money used" said County Auditor Davey.
VT was apparent To all who watched the
progress of the balloting that Morgan had
his paid hireltngs at work and they were
trying to earn their money. | said TO
Chairman Grant of the stark county
delegation: With the reputation that
Morgan has for being oppos d to organ
lzed labor you can see that IL will be a
severe blow TO the Republican parry of
the district to have IL endorse such man
by nominating him for Congress. The
labor interests throughout the entire
district are opposed to Morgan and the
party cannot afford to nominate him.
Col. Taylor, of East Liverpool, said
substantially the same thing, and while
admitting the force of our arguments,
Chairman Grant refused to carry out the
suggestions made. The nomination of
Morgan is an insult to more than 3 000
members of the Amalgamated Associa.
tion In Mahoning county, and the other
branches of organized labor in the county
and throughout tho district, aud unless
am greatly mistaken will be resented al

The proposition to nominate Chief JUS
tice Fuller of the U. S. Supreme court as
the Democratic candidate for President is
absurdity run mad. Il is too ridiculous to
be discussed. II we are to nominate a
candidate from Republican state, James
e. Campbell is the right man.-Manstield
Shield.
You are just right. James E. Camp
bell is the best man to nominate, if we
want winner. He can carry Ohio as
against Harrissn, and he has more per-
sonal popularity and less weak spotsS
than any other big Democrat between
the two oceans.

WHERE ARE THEY?
TWO LAUNDRY COLLECTORS LEAVE THE
CITY SUDDENLY

Grant and James Brisbins Among the
Missing-..Grant's Accounts Are Short
and He Leaves Wife and Two Chill
dren.
Grant and James Brisbinc, two brothers
who have been employed as drivers by the
Canton Steam Laundry, left the city sud
denly this morning, taking with them the
route books Of the company.
Grant Brisbine also left behind a wife
and two small children. The laundry
people say he is short 10 HE accounts but
are unable to give the amount at present.
1t is known to be over $50.
The laundry is left in very bad shape, ,as
it is impossible to tell where their custom
ers are located. Last night the two Bris .
bine boys spent the evening until after IL
o'clock settling up with the company. 1t
was expected they would return to work
this morning but they failed to put in an
appearance.
A News. DEMOCRAT reporter called on
Mrs. Brisbine at her rooms over Philip
Wild's place in East Fifth street. She
said her husband and his brother
came home last night. She
heard them talk about going away but
paid little attention to them not thinking
they would do it. Grant left a note to his
wife saying she should not worry, as he
would send her money as soon as he got
to work. Neither of the boys had much
money when they left. 1t is not known
where they have gone.
Mrs. Brisbine is in poor circumstances
and has two small children to support.
She is of the opinion that she will hear
from her hysband. The Brisbiue boys
were both popular and had MANY friends.
Strong drink was the cause of Grants
downfall.

Mary Metzger Wants Damages From

Mary Metzger has commenced suit in
Common Pleas court against Frank Rose
for heavy damages for alleged slander
and defamation of character. The plain
tiff asserts that the defendant circulated
false statements concerning her character
which wrought great damage to her repu-
tation and placed her in a bad light before
the public. She estimates that she has
been injured 5000 worth and she there
fore asks this sum.

with the masses Of his own county. As
Columbiana county was really entitled to
the Congressman, and as her majority
usually elect, a great deal will depend on
how she takes her treatment. Should she
feel like retaliating at the election, there
lie but little doubt that Morgan would be
laid sside.n
When party organs indulge in such
editorial language, it is evident that
Morgsn's nomination has fallen on the
popular conscience with dull and
heavy thud.

improve, when the early frosts COM
