A GREAT RECORD.
A cANToNIAN AT THE AGE OF a HAS
HIS THIRD WIFE.

He Tries to Keep it Quiet and Threatens
TO Kill a News-Demoorst Man If he
Publishes the Facts of His Last Mar
riage.
On Saturday evening young man with
silk hat, Prince Albert coat and white
necktick appeared at the probate office
and took out licence to wed one OF
Canton's young ladies. The young fellow
was Elmer Stansbury, q clerk at Moses d
Reemsnyder's furniture store and the
young lady who had agreed to share his
earthly lot was Miss Sarah ]. Veneer.
AT high noon Sunday the couple were
driven with great eclat in coach to the
Church OF God, where Rev. Beck pro-
nounced the ceremony that made them
man and wife.
The groom, in the line of matrimony,
probably has the greatest record of any
man in the county. DE is only twenty
four years OF age but he has already stood
before the marriage altar and taken the
vows OF a family man three times. His
first wife died and soon efterward he
married her sister. He did so, however,
under protest and as they left the Justices
he bid her go her way and he would go
his. After two attempts he secured a
divorce from wife no and at the time,
which was last winter, he created quite a
sensation In the court room in giving in
his testimony. Mr.. Stansbury, however,
did not propose to live in single blessed
ness very long and he lost no time in look
ing about for another spouse. He did
not seem to be anxious for the public to
know about his last venture, however,
aud many precautions were taken to keep
the reporters from finding out about the
wedding OF yesterday.
He succeeded in having his name kept
off of the register at the probate office
aware of the proceedings and had been
looking for the event for a month.
This morning the scribe sought out Mr..
Stansbury at the store of Moses d Reem-
snyder, to offer his congratulations upon
the marvellous matrimonial record Of the
young man and to get q few points con-
cerninR the nuptials.
Stansbury was dressed up in q style
eminently beflttin9 the occasion but when
he found out the reporter was Oh to the
fact of his wedding he flared up like
dynamite and demanded in a deep,
oratund voice that nothing be said about
IL in the paper. He then became violent
and, pacing up and down the store, de-
clared that he would shoot any man who
dared to say anything In the paper about
his wedding.
The reporter did not seem to be fright.
ened bit and his view of the facts in the
case he informed the irate bridegroom
that 1t would probably go in. The young
man then became personal and said he
would put bullet through the re.
porter and have him in his
coffln tomorrow il he said anything and
further stated that he had mind to mop
up the floor with the scribe then and there
for, said he: ~ am just man enough to
do it.n
The youthful benedict did not seem to
be in very much OF a honeymoon spirit so
the reporter did not argue the matter with
him but he certainly can claim first prize
In the matrimonial field in this section
for it is doubtful if another youth OF two
dozen summers has yet led to the marriage
altar three wives.

WHEN that dynamo of Protection, Gov.
Mckinley, begins to send currents of
economic truth through New England,
severe shocks will be felt at BuzzArd's
Bay.-Cincinnati Times-Star.
We have no fears but Buzzard's Bay
will be able to stand the shock, but we
tremble for Loon Lake. This lake was
named becauseit was originally peopled
with Looms, a web footed diving bird,
with less sense and more yell than any
other bird that was ever let loose in
swamp or lagoon by the great Creator.
Hence If the present Loon Lake is as
looney as of old 1t Is the only spot in all
new England that is in any danger
Of shock when the Major lets loose

WHAT humiliation IL must be to
Chicago to be forced to travel as far as
New York to fiud competent orator to
make the Grafton at the opening of its
show. There 10 not In Chicago any orator
of national fame, not one, while New
York has at least a dozen such orators,
including the Hon. Bourke Cochran, DR..
Depew, Col. Fellows, Joseph H. Choate
and Col. Ingersoll. Is there any man of
extraordinary eloquence outside OF New
York anywhere In our beloved country p
New York Sun.
We say yes. Canton has one. Then
there's Foraker. What's the matter
with Foraker as an orator? Then cast
your eye on Kansas. There Is John
James ingalls, who never spoke in the
Senate unless to a crowded gallery.
What's the matter with James G..
Blaine, now permanently of Maine
How about the eloquent Breckenridge
of Kentucky and the irrepressible and
irresponsible Carter Harrison of
Chicago? Who can scintillate with
more Drilliancy than our own Jimmy
Campbell of Ohio. New York never
produced an orator. Bob Ingersoll
was born in Illinois, and Bourke Cock
ran Is the product of the Green Isle;
and neither Col. Fellows nor DR.. Depew
were born in New Y ork.

SENATOR CARLISLE of Kentucky has
demonstrated to certainty the fact
that the Mckinley bill put S4,629,750
into the pockets of the Welsh tin plate
manufacturers. Every dollar of which
came out of the pockets of the poor
and middle classes in the United States.
Mr.. Carlisle states this as the result of
an investigation made at his request by
high authority on such subjects in
England AS soon as it became known
that the Mckinley bill would pass,
which was the case even before July 1,
1880, American importers of tin plate
began to purchase in Wales in increased
quantities so as to avoid the increased
tariff tax, and the Welsh manufacturers
put up their prices with the result just
stated. This result reached by an En-
glish investigator corresponds with
that reached by comparing our custom
house returns for 1891 with those for
previous years. There is no disputing
the fact that the Mckinley act put over
$4,600,000 into the pockets of the Welsh
manufacturers in one year.
Shoot the robber tariff.
Vote for Cleveland.

JUST now, among a class entirely too

JUST now, among class entirely too
large in this country, there is more
anxiety to hear from Asbury Park and
Canoe Place Inn, than from Buzzard's
Bay and Loon Lake. This is probably
owing to the fact that the fight for the
worlds championship comes off in
September, while the White House
prize of 100000 (undivided) does not
culminate until November. And now
they say John l.. Sullivan has sweat
off all his adipose tissue and is down to
real fighting weight, 210 pounds. The
telegram says he is as strong as an OK.
Then comes a clicker from Asbury
Park saying: "Corbett is as strong as
a lion, and even McVay, his new wrest.
ling partner, finds 1t no easy thing to
break away from the young California
fighter. Notwithstanding the extreme
warm weather Corbett had his usual
exercise today. He did not seem to
mind the heat bit, and wound up the
days exercise by five mile run"

THE New York World prints pic

widows, who are doing the season at
Atlantic City. None of them wear
mourning. In fact a mourning garb

note Mrs. Randall White of Phi!adel-

she's been a widow so long that she thinks
of her beloved husband as of a dear

involuntarily looks down at her watch,
which, strange to say, has face in the
back-"Ill marry him." "Tm going to

DURING Mr.. Harrison Administra-
tiOn $65,000,000 less of the Govern
ment's bonds have been retired than
were paid during Mr.. CleVeland's
Administration. Besides this the actual
lack of present funds compelled the
administration to extend $25, 500 of
the 4 IL per cent. bonds, SO that more
than $9O000O00 must be added to the
deficiency, together with $S4,0O0,0O0
representing the surplus in the treas
ury at the end of Cleveland's term.
And all Mr.. Harrison has to show for
this is record of ten solid pages of

The laboripg men across the Atlantic

THE laboring men across the Atlantic
have commenced to size up Andrew
Carnegie accurately. The Scotch
workmen of the Glasgow Trade Coun-
Gil have by resolution placed Carnegie
in the roll of fame along with Judas
Iscariot, and yet this is the man who
gave the recent $4,000 banquet to
President Harrison in Washington, in
which all the kindred millionaire Re-
publican arlstocrats of the u. S. Senate
participated. He is today enjoying
rich government contracts, paid for in
the sweat money OF labor, by onerious
and unjust tariff taxes. And yet this
very work is the product of imported
foreign paupers, who have crowded out
union laborers, by the protection af-
forded by Pinkerton rifles.
Vote for Grover Cleveland.

THE fact stands ont in the hold and

THE fact stands out in the bold and
defiant utterance of 7. r. Morgan, Jr.,
that the firm of which I. II. Morgan, ST.,
is principal, does not recognize labor
organizations and that they have to do
with their employees as individuals only,
and therefore will not have regard to
organized labor or labor unions. This
clear and emphatic declaration of the
junior Morgan, at once definitely and
authoratively settles the attitude of Il.
r. Morgan, Sr., the Republican candi-
date for Congress from this district, to-
ward labor organizations. The labor
organizations of this district will surely
note this fact, and when they come to
cast their ballots In November next for
one to assume the responsible posi-
tion of National Legislator from this
district, they will not cast them for L.
II. Morgap.-Alliance Leader.

THE report of the adjutant general
of Pennsylvania shows that Colonel
Streator has no army record outside OF
his connection with the National Guard.
We are glad to know this. We suspect
ed all along that Streator was not a
soldier, bus brutal, cowardly whelp
who went into the militia to wear brass
buttons and air his egotisms. Courage
and chiValry are twin brothers, and
cruelty and cowaTdice are twin sneaks.
No brave officer was ever known to
practice cruelty on private soldier.

KNUTE NELSON, the Republican
nominee for Governor of Minnesota,
voted in Congress for the Mills bill, and
denounced the Mckinley bill when it
passed. The fact of his nomination for
Governor of that state this presidential
year is enough to indicate that public
sentiment, even in the Republican
party of Minnesota, is against the rob-
ber tariff. Perhaps Mckinley can be
induced to make few free trade
speeches in Minnesota, under the name
of reciprocity. What charming,
witching thing is humbug.

GREAT HARMONY AMONG REPUBLICAN
EDITORS.
From the Cincinnati Times star.

The Canton Repository and the Mt.
Vernon Republican are entering into
the campaign with commendable spirits
but with rather peculiar ideas as to the
proper manner of conducting It. The
Repository seems to think that the way
to win Republican votes is to publish
cartoons ridiculing President Harrison,
while the Mt. Vernon editor trains his
gun on "Bill" Hahn, "Josey" Smith and
other members of the Republican State
committee. So far as we can discover
no other Republican paper In Ohio
shows any disposition to follow the
example of either In this peculiar style
of campaigning.
