Davitt will Try Again.

DUBLIN. Jan. 5.-It is probable that
Mr.. Michael Davitt will stand as can
didate for the representation of Wexford
in parliament. 1t is doubtful whether
the Parnellites will consider it worth
their while to put up any one to oppose
him, as in that case 1t is generally ad-
mitted that they are sure to be beaten.
The only obstacle to Mr.. Davitt's par
liamentary ambition is the condition of
his health, which is far from good.

The News DEMOCRAT never used
the language quoted by the Rep; hence
observations made on a false statement
don't go. But just read this sentence
from the Rep:
"The "NEwS-DEMoCRAT said it was

HOW 1T HAPPENED.
PARTICULARS REGARDING
THE DEATH OF JOSEPH
CLUTZ, JR.
He Was an Expert Swimmer But the
Current Was Too Swift For Him--The
Body Not Recovered.

He Was an Expert Swimmer But the
Current Was Too Swift For Him--The
Body Not Recovered.
The NEWS DEMOCRAT last evening gave
the sad news that Josiah Clutz Jr., son of
County Commissioners Cluiz had been
drowned in tho Tuscarawas river at
Massillon.
The deceased was thirty.two years Of
aye and very popular among his fiiends.
He was quite au athlete, n good swimmer
and was at home in the water. At the
last report his body had not yet been
recovered.
Mr.. Clulz started TO row to Millport.
When he reached the Main street bridge
he discovered that he water was so high
he could not row under the bridge and
consequently lay down in the boat and
attempted to pull it through by means of
the iron girders ov rhead. He lost an oar
audlin attempting to recover Ii the boat
upset and he was drowned.
Constable George Cannon who was an
eye witness to the accident tells the fol
lowing story: II first saw Clutz as he
was rowing up stream,n said Mr.. Cannon,
"Just beyond the West street bridge. He
lost one oar, and tried to turn the boat
round, and come back under the bridge to
pick 1t up. In making the turn the boat
upset and the other oar fell out He
succeeded in holding on, while the boat
| fl Dated bottom side up.n
IL stood on the F., Wayne bridge and
called to him, / saw tina, he held short
boat hook in his hand. The current was
carrying him in toward the south ahut-
mGnt of the railroad bridge, and stepped
down on the first atone above water, lay
| down, and held out my hand to catch
| the boat hook which he held out. Victor
Burnett stood over me, TO give me aid.
The boat hook was too short by about
eighteen inches, and we saw him float by,
! Callsd d 10 him and said:
"'Don't try to make landing at the
stone bridge but go on through TO the w.
& l., L. trestlc.' lie called back all right
and drifted rapidly down. When lie had
gone through the stone bridge somebody
called TO him to let go OF the boat and
strike out for shore, he followed that
advice and was drowned.n
County Commissioner Clutz was notified
of the accident while In Canton, and in
company with Sheriff Krder drove to
Massllon.

POISONOUS GAS
CAUSES ANOTHER STARK COUNTY clTl
ZEN's DEATH MONDAY,

A Hartville Timer Negiects to Inve sti-
gate for Gas and is Overcome in an Old
well--He Dies Soon After Being Res
oued.
Jesse Rupbright, a popular young citi-
zen living a short distance west of Hart
Vile, came TO sad and untimcly end
yesterday afternoon. Mr.. RuphriRht is a
timer by trade and owned a small tin
shop In Hartvile. He also sold pumps and
did general repairing business.
Yesterday afternoon he went up to the
Lee Weary farm, about two miles and n
half north of Hartville. to fix pump in
an old we'll. A loop was made in rope,
through which he stuck one foot. and in
this manner no was let down in the well
TO the place where the pump needed fix
ing. Two men were above holding the
rope, and as they looked down they saw
Mr.. Ruphright suddenly throw his arms
around the stock as II to Keep from fall
ing to the bottom of the we'll. They called
down to him but no answer came
back and the truth dawued upon
them that he had been overcome by
the noxious gas in the well. They let n
lantern down and IL went out and efforts
were immediately to get the unconscious
man out OF his perilous predicament. His
grasp around the pump held however and
as they pulled upward he was wedged in
tighter than ever. Help was summoned
and hooks were caught in his clothing by
which he was finally brought to the sur
face. He was too far gone however to he
r. vived and he breathed but few seconds
after reaching terra hrma. His remains
were taken TO his home near Hartvlle.
Mr., RuphriRht was young man about
thirty years of age. He was married
about two years ago and leaves a wife and
small child. He was doing nicely In
business and bis sad death has broken up
one OF the most happy families in the
neighborhood and cast a gloom over the
entiro community.

EN- MONS BLAINE.
From the ChIeago News.


Emmons Blaine appears to have
been in many respects remarkable
man. lie has many of those traits
which distinguish his illustrious father
employing them in the di-
rectitI tILP'Sof politics he chose to apply
them to the more practical uses Of a
business career, and the wisdom of
this was illustrated in the rapid rise
the young man, made within the last
five years. 1t is believed that he would
have become great influence in the
profession of railway management; of
this he gave every promise.
It is seldom that young man ab-
sorbed in the fascination OF business
which bids fair to realizs his ambi-
tion-it is seldom that such young
man has the inclination to answer the
demands OF the sO-called amenities of
life. To the rule Mr.. Blaine was an
exception; in his social relations he was
most charming. He was always COM
panionable, and, without condescend-
ing to familiarity, he always invited
confidence, for he was of truthful,
honorable and conHding nature: A
singular thoughtfulness, valorous
gentleness, a tender regard for the
feelings of others, characterized HMM
all his associations.
So by his death we lose what earth
can, of all its pleasant and sweet things,
least afford to spare-a touch of that
high, gracious, tender spirit which en-
mobiles manhood and makes compan-
onship so dear.

,pular government is to be saved, and

popular government is to be saved, and
we should have President elected
by the popular vote of all the citizens
of all the States. Or, we can provide
by law of Congress for uniform sys-
tenn of electing electors for all the
States, by popular vote in the Con-
gressional districts; allowing Senatorial
electors only to be elected by the States.
We have President today In the
White House elected by the bribe
money of men who are the benedciaries
of legislation that robs the masses for
the exclusive benefit of special classes;
aud that same President has secured
his denomination by the corrupt use of
official patronage, and by the bribing of
venal delegates from States where the
Presidents party has no party outside
of the spoils seekers. If Republican
government is to endure, the electoral
system must go.

ALLEGED FRAUD,
A PARTNER IN THE WORLDS MED
ICAL INSTITUTE

Causes the Arrest Of DrH. Rhodes ard
Beistand For B,astns Him Out OF $500
by misrepresentation.
The W,ra's Medical Dispensary asso-
citation az this city has come 70 GRIEF. The
Doctors Rhodes aud Heisthpd have been
arrested for alleged fraud. Constable
| Siag.g met them as th-y steppsd out Of a
buggy last night and brought them before
Justice Ringle for hearing. They pleaded
not guilty and were bound over for trial
in the sum of $500 for June 20 at one
o'clock.
The complainant is John C. Jenkins a
North Carolina physician. The affidavit
recites that Jenkins being desirous of 10.
eating in this county for the practice of
his profession, wrote to the two doctors
for Information. He struck a bonanzl, as
he thought, when he received letter from
them stating that they were doing busi-
ness OF some $1,000 cash per year, that
they had been in business two years
and occasionally run as high as $500 and
81, 200 per mouth cash in their work. Jen
kin's eyes watered at the fortune awaiting
him, and it is alleged that in very short
time he entered into a written contract
with these two men in which document
they proposed TO shsra their big profits
with him. On May 2l Jenkins turned over
S24O in cash and $500 in paper to the two
men, and he was made full fedRed
partner. Then it was that the man de
tec;ed his haSty conclusion in joining
these fellows. The three together did
crushing (?)" business, but it aVaiIed
Jenkins little, for he never received
cent of profits in any way as he alleges in
his affidavit.
He straightway went before Justice
RinRle yesterday afternoon and swore out
an affidavit for the arrest OF the medics.
Constable Slagle searched long and hard
for them, and finally learned that they
had left the city together in a buggy. He
was informed as to the time OF their return,
and at that hour he lay in wait and nabbed
them as they got off the vehicle.
The Dispensary has been in existence
for several years in this city, and consid-
cradle complaint is made by all the local
doctors as to the methods pursued by
these men in soliciting "casesn and at.
tempting to cure incurables.

IN THE SUPREME COURT.

The Famous Road Contest Case of Mimi
shiIlen Towls ship Now in the Supreme
Court.
The famous road ease from Nimishillen
township, Stark coanty, Ia now on the
Supreme Court docket of Ohio, and will
be tried whenever IL Is reached, which will
probably be some dog in 1893 or later A
correspondent wants US TO pEint the fol-
lowing on this remarkable case, which, IL
10 clairaed, has both road dirt eId politics
in it. Here is the communication:
We have in mind county road for
which the original survey called for sixty
feet, but which II was thought be st to mar
row as u matter OF economy. The com
missioners were consulted, aud they said
they would entertain petition for a road
not less than 40 feet and signed an article
10 that effect, but afterwards, when a
more numerously signed petition was
presented, asking for a 30 feet road, they
granted the petition they had sole mnly
declared they would not entertain-votes.
Although the law is specific, and de-
slares the road shah not depart from the
line of the he'originalsurvey, the road was
located by the viewers, in some places en-
sireIy OFF the original road bed. 1t is cer-
tain that two of the viewers were influenc-
ed by cider and good fellowship more
than justice 10 thia instance.
When appeal waB taken to the Probate
zion of the law and actually gained eight
votes by 80 doing-wonderful Is justice
that is so bliDdl An appeal was also
| made to the court, of Common Pleas for
! a review and all the forms of Jaw con-
| formed to in order To secure the same but
| after long delay Tin order TO ascertain
/ where the ajority vote was, W presumed
he refused to grant the review and after

l tion.n

A HOPEFUL MUGWUMP VIEW
From the New York Tin es,

Whoever may be nominated at Min
neapolis, the Republican division is
broad and deep enough to make New
York a surely Democratic state this
year. Connecticut and New Jersey will
follow their neighbor, and in all proba-
bility Massachusetts, and Rhode Island.
Michigan will contribute at least half
dozen Democratic electors.

skill and half his disrepute, and Wana-
maker were thrice as pious and could
raise million instead of paltry four
hundred thousand, they could not pull
any possible Republican ticket out OF
the ditch prepared for it, in advance OF
its birth, by Mr., Blaine.

MCKINLEY made very good speech
to the President yesterday, informing
him of his denomination. He avoided
the bulls and wretched blunders made
by Orator Estee of California, who
made the same information speech
four years ago. Mr.. Estee very nearly
paralized Mr.. Harrison (then an Indian
apolis corporation lawyer with the

THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE SCHEME A
FAILURE.

Three times have the Democrats of
the United States been sWindled out of
the popular choice for President by the
Electoral College system. This system
grew out Of State jealousy, when the
Constitution was under discussion, and
it has been a menace to free represen-
tOtive government for the past twenty
five years. Besides ii has been largely
responsible for the wholesale bribery
that has of late crept into our popular
elections, The patriots who framed
our Federal Constitution and first set
the young Republic on its career did
not dream of the situation and environ
meut that we see today. They did not
even suspect the enOrm us greed and
selhshness of organized political parties,
as no political parties were in existence
when the Constitution was under dis
cussion.
Our Constitution builders only knew
little local parties or factions, based on
the interest of slavery, of large States
like New York and pennsylvania, and
little States like Rhode Island and
Delaware. But National party con-
vention with the machinery worked by
Federal officials was danger our fore
fathers never dreamed Of
The object of the electoral system
was to provide each State with a sep
arata vote for President, and in order
that this vote might be cast independ-
ent of the vote of any other state. 1t
was not suspected that these electors
would ever become machine, domi-
mated by National political conVen-
ton.
1t was a long time after our con.
stitution was adopted by all the states
that any political party was organized;
and when party was organized it was
based upon principle for success, with
no view of aid from patronage, or Off
ces belonging to all the people. There
were not over a hundred removals from
office for party reasons from 1889 down
to 1929, a period of 40 years
Dorman B. Eaton, in valuable paper
on our present peril from this now cor,
rupt electoral contriVance, says:
"a national party convention, a
Presidential election, the elementary
activity of more than hundred thou
sand subordinates of a President for his
70 election, the awarding of tens ol
thousands of places as prizes to the
victors, by q President thus elected
those workings of our political system
were as much beyond the Imagination
of its authors, as some Of them are re
pugnant to the constitution itself"
When our electoral system wat
adopted, each elector was supposed tC
cast his vote for the President of hi
individual choice. 1t was not suspect
ed that these electors would become
the serVile tools of party machinery
No one seemed to anticipate that a po-
litical party could arise, like the Republi
can party of today and through bribery
party spoils and corrupt manipulation
of the electoral machinery, thwart th'
will of sixty millions of Americans, a
expressed at the ballot box, for Chic
Executive.
The whole electoral system should b.
abolished, and abolished speedily, !

MAJOR MCKINLEY's speech to the
President informing him of his nomi-
nation was read from manuscript, still
the Major failed 70 explain to the Presi-
dent why only one vote was cast for
him in the Ohio delegation, on duty at
Minneapolis. 1t seems to us that the
Major ought to have explained for the
benefit of Charley Foster of Fostoria
and Washington, why the three dele.
gates from McKinley's old Congress
sioDal district; Baldwin of Stark,
Amber of Columbiana aud Judge Tay,
lor of Carroll, all voted against the
President.
