The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1892-04-02

The Philadelphia Press, the lead
ing Republican paper of Pennsyl-
vania, has had the war record of
Senator Quay looked mp and finds
that his claims to distinction as a
great soldier are "about as thin as
his claim to elninence as u great
statesman" 1t further declares
that the much Dragged about med
al "presented by congress for dis
tinguished service" was, in fact,
given him by the secretary of war
twenty-five years after the war was
over for no other apparent reason
than that Quay, as chairman of the
Republican national committee
and senator from Pennsylvania,
asked for one. This is awful. 1t
is almost enought to cause one to
look with suspicion on that other
story of unflinching bravery in
which Quay is said to have defied
single handed all the thugs and as
sassins of New York, who had or
ganized to take his life when he
went there to purify politics.

probability of its being passed.
In that case the bill would be II
strictly non-partisanf measure,
neither party being entitled to the
full credit of passing it and neither
being chargeable with its RESPONSE
bility by the opponents of silver
coinage. If, under those circum-
stances, President Harrison vetoed
the bill he would place himself in
opposition to strong element in
his own party.
The one thing clear is that the
free coinage fight has not yet been
fought to finish and it is by no
means certain that it will not yet
be won by the friends of bimetal-
lism.

Keeping a Promise.
Columbus Post.

SOiuhlpuo Oobs
The appointment by Governor
Mckinley of William Kirkby as
Commissioner of Railroad and Tel
egraphs of Ohio appears to be the
keeping of a promise to the ear and
breaking it to the hope of the rail-
road men of the State.
1t was generally known that Me-
Kinley had promised the railroad
men that he would appoint one of
their number as commissioner.
Thereupon, Mr.. McVean, an ex-
conductor, and Mr.. Knight, To-
comotive engineer, started their re-
spective trains for the appointment.
They each regarded themselves as
railroad men and therefore within
the gubernatorial promise. In their
anxiety to run their trains on time,
they seem to have had no notice
that the Kirkby special was on the
track bound for Columbus. While
McVean and Knight were stand
ing on side track reading over in
great trust and happiness the splen-
did recommendations, resolutions
and endorsements of their fellow
workmen, the Kirkby special pass
ed them on an order from McKin-
ley endorsed by John Sherman.
1t is said that Kirkby's appoint
ment fulfills the promise made to
the railroad men, because he was
at one time yard master. The
newspapers also report that he is IA
Methodist and the superintendent
of the Lucas county poor house.
Those who claim to know him say
that he is jealous Republican
ward h eeler of great influence. 1t
seems that he can control the pau
per vote in the poor house and turn
it over for Mckinley and prosper
ity. 1t looks as if the Governor had
put out three different promises,
one to the railroad men, one to the
Methodists and one to the paupers
three large classes and each in
creasing under protection-and in
tends to regard the appointment of
Kirkby as the fulfillment of all
three.

Silver in the Senate.

The free coinage storm center
has shifted from the House to the
Senate wing of the Capitol. The
refusal of Speaker Crisp to vote
for cloture rule that Will bring
the coinage committees bill to a
direct vote leaves that bill on the
calendar with but small prospect
of getting it up in its regular order
during the present session. 1t was
supposed that this settled the ques-
tion but it did not Yesterday af-
ternoOn Senator Stewart gave no.
tice that he would call up on Mon
day the free coinage bill introdu-
ced by him and reported adversely
by the committee to which it was
referred. 1t is Senator Stewards
purpose to force the bill on the at
tention Of the Senate on record on
the silver question.
Ihe notice has caused a flutter-
tering in the Senate. That Repub.
lican body contemplated with calm
satisfaction, the excitement in the
House and especially the close, by
which it was supposed the ques-
tion had been put to sleep for some
months. There are several Sena-
tors who are not at all anxious to
make record on the subject just
at this tir1e, and if the bill had
come over from the House it was
intended to postpone taking it up
as long as possible, Now, If Sena-
tor Stewart gets his way, his fellow
Republicans in the Senate will
have to show their hands. In the
last Congress the Republican SEN
ate passed free coinage bill and
the anti-silver Republican are in a
shiver of fear that it will do so
again. If the bill passes the Sen
ate and goes to the House in time
it may he taken up in substitution
for the House bill and prompt CON

THE rumor that Claus Spreckels
has gone into the sugar trust has
been confirmed. Heretofore Claus
has been a good deal of trust in
himself, and the reduction in the
price of sugar was the result of the
fierce competition. 1t now remains
to be seen if the Mckinley bill,
even in the matter of sugar, will
prove the benefit claimed. The
price will undoubtedly be raised a.
gain, but the bounty the people
must pay to the sugar trust will go
ON as usual. Great is Mckinley if
he be judged by his words instead
Of his wQFks.-Cyeve Plain Dealer.

PRESIDENTIAL STRAWS.

South Carolina will support the
nominee of the Democratic party,
whoever he may be.-Marleston
Ne,CS and Courier NelOS Dem.
There would be some sense in
this cry for "a Western man" If it
could be shown that President
taken from the West could serve
the people any better or any more
intelligently than Grover Cleve-
land. But it is universally known
and admitted by the masses of the
Democratic party that Cleveland
was the first President the country
has had since the war, who sought
to lessen the burdens of the farm
ers and the working classes, who
largely make up the population OF
the West.-KanSdS city star, Dem,
Senator d. B. Hill is very
shrewd politician, but he hlunders
badly in his methods for working
up Presidential boom. BY his toe
great eagerness to capture the nom
ination this year he not only de-
feats his object now, but it looks
very as if he had ruined his chan
ces for the future.-Richmond Star
Dem.
Would it not be good idea for
Massachusetts to go right to work
and from now on labor to get Rus
sci second on the Presidential tick
ct? This work would be of use to
him if at the convention there
should be chance of heading the
ticket. 1t is the general opinion
that it is only as IL "dark horse'
that Russell has a show for first
place, while his chances for second
place are excellent. Vice Presi-
dent Russell could be of great
deal of use to New England.-Holy
Oke (MdSS) Democrat.
1t doesn't matter much where
Senator Hill goes the Republican
papers follow him and tell him he
can't be nominated, and advise
Democrats not to make him their
candidate. Wonder what the Re-
publicans are afraid of?-BM6alO
E0ening Times. (Dem.)
The Democrats of Athens, Pa,
believe that Senator Hill is the
man to nominate for President and
have therefore instituted a David
B. Hill club. The Hill sentiment
steadily grows and the organization
of the Athens Democrats is one of
the good evidences.-EEmira Gag

Fire in Locust Township.

The house of VIM. K. Fetterman,
near Snyder's mill, was destroyed by
fire on Thursday last, the only portion
of its contents saved was trunk and
little bedding from the second story,
and some of the furniture down stairs,
about $50. 90 worth in all.
The family had eaten dinner but a
short time previous and were out in
the field planting corn. Mr.. Fetter-
man, who is a huckster, discovered
the fire while on his way from the
field to the barn to hitch up. 1t is
supposed that a spark from the chin.
ney lodged upon the roof and was
famed into flame by the high wind
which prevailed. He carried an in
surance IN the Locust Mutual Fire In
surance of $500 on the house and con-
tents, $I5o on clothing, etc, and $roo
on provisions. He will realize about
5000 from the total amount, and his
loss is upwards OF $I.ooo.-Cata,oissa
