THE Canton Evening Rep. is dis
pleased because Ex-President Seton
has rejuvenated the Sunday Herald
! The Rep. seems to think that President
Sifton is not a good Republican because
Ne assumes to run an independent
lnday newspaper. While we have
thing but good feeling and good
1eer for both the Sunday Rep. and the
nday Herald, we must dissent from
lis view of the Rep. Mr.. Seton has a
,-rfect right to run an Independent
.ewspaper, and still hold the Republi-
an party of Canton up by the tail, in a
private way. journalism is legiti-
mate business, entirely apart from
politics. Mr.. Sefton's idea is to run a
Sunday newspaper that shall reach all
classes and all parties and offend none.
He desires to occupy the whole field,
and hence would print a paper that
Democrats, Republicans, Prohibition
lists, Peoples Party, Presbyterians,
Methodists, Catholics, Elks and Junior
Order Of American Mechanics can all
read without otfense. On the other
hand the Sunday Rep. desires to print
paper simply to furnish wicked
Sunday reading in the yenal interest of
Protection, Plutocracy ard the Pinker-
tons, solidifed with fifteen or sixteen
solid column chunks of boiler plate
literature.
The Rep. seems to intimate that
Elk President Seton has no right to
launch his journalistic craft on the
unsalted sea of Independent journalism
because he has been honored with fat
offices by the Republican party. Here
is where we smile, in much company.
All of Sefton's fat offices were some time
ago in prospective; now they have gone
glimmering into the dead sea of broken
promises and blasted hopes Seton
expected much of Mckinley, but even
the Presidency of the Ohio Peniten;iary,
which hung low at one time before the
bright aurora of bis green spectacled
eyes, was cruelty grabbed from his
ex pectant grasp by julius Whiting Jr.,
and Seton, who put in days and weeks
and months hustling for Mckinley for
governor, got all his pay and all his glory
in riding gaudily caparisoned truck
gelding in the inaugural procession, of |
the great tin god of plutocracy. These
are facts, cold, cruel, discouraging,
damnatle facts. Hence we say, with
out fear of succes sful contradition, that |
Sexton is fully justified |
in launching his clipper rigged craft
the Sunday Herald-upon the un-
'alted sea of independent journalism.

THE fusion business seems two
edged sword. In the South it cuts into
the Democratic majOrities and in the
West it is likely to wipe out the old time
Republican majorities in ten states.
Hence on the whole it cuts the g. o. p.
the worst 1t may throw the election
of President into the House of Repre-
seLtatiyes, which makes 1t sure for
Grover. Alliance fusion with the
Democrats may carry the states of
Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas.
Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Ne
braska, Nevada, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming, quite
as doubtful for Harrison as Democratic
fusion could make the states of Ala
bama, Arkansas, Georgia, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina and Tennessee in
the south. But few electoral votes
could be gained for Harrison in the
oOuth, even with the largest measure of
fusion success.

THE PROTECTED PEAsANTRY.

A Republican tooter of New York cries /;
Welcome to the French Republican club
OF the metropolis. These sons OF LIE Belle
France know what protection has done
for their great Republic-what policy has
made their country the garden spot of
Europe.
This tooter should picture the French
peasant at his tasks, for which he re-
ceiyed 30 cents day and upwards. The
Louis's and Napoleons made France
the garden spot Of Europe and Paris
the one city of the world, and they did
it by forced tribute from the patient,
plodding, industrious, saving peasan-
try. He should go into picturesque
Norma dy and historic Brittany and
sketch the windowless huts of these
laborers (there's heavy tax on window
glass), where men, women aud chill
dren, horses, cows and pigs live under
one roof and often in one room With,
perhaps, "a loft" He might describe
their coarse gowns woven in the hand
loom and their wooden sabots that clat-
ter over the stone floors of the cathe-
drals (where single windows cost tens
of thousands of dollars), as they go to
drop their centimes into the box before
the holy image. He could make some
very touching pictures of the French
peasantry and some wonderful con-
trasts, placing these lowly cow.sheds
side by side with the palaces of Paris
When he had done this he wouldn't
want to say anything about protection
for the people by means of taxation.
He wouldn't want any one to ask him
to compare the homes and the wages of
the French work people With those of
free trade England.--Toledo Bee.

DEATH OF Hons JOHN G. WARWICK.
successor.

Our Congressman John G.. Warwick,
died on Sunday evening at the Riggs,
House, Washington, after an Illness of
six days. He had an acute attack of
bowel complaint precipitated by the
intense heat, which has prevailed In
Washington for the past two weeks.
His death was great shock to this
community, as no one had heard that
he was i'll. He died at the age of 80, in
the full maturity of his intellectual
powers, and enjoying to a remarkable
degree the friendship, confidence and
regard of his fellow citizens. He leaves
to his family an honored name. the
memory of a life full of usefulness and
devotion, and a career marked with
high achievement. Mr.. Warwick was
in every sense manly man. Manly In
his department, kindly and considerate
in his home circle, generous
in his charities, scupulously honest in
all his business relations and courage
Gus in his business ventures. He de
served success, aud he won 1t. His
death will cause pang 10 every house
hold in Stark county, where the people
all know him so well, and the sorrow
over his grave will be heartfelt and
sincere.
A coed man, a..ripe man, a generous
hearted man; friend of the people,
the great common people, has fallen.
1t can be truly said of Gov. Warwick
that those who knew him best were
his staunchest friends; and that in his
home, in his business associations, in
his career as a public man he was
always up to the highest expectations.

have fallen back on corrupt practices
as the only chance to save the State.
Old man Sawyer of Oshkosh, who is
U. S. senator, by grace of the 100000
he has made on the lumber tariff has
already given his check for $4,000 to
help Harrison In Wisconsin and he
boasts openly that Wisconsin will not
go Democratic this year, as long as
he has bank account. How does this
strike you for the public utterances of
a U. s. senator and leader of great
party of moral ideas.

A LIFE OF HONEST AND USEFUL EN-
DEAVOR.
From the ClereIand Lealer

The Leader extends its sincere sym-
pathy to the family and friends Of Hon.
John q. Warwick, whose death was
announced in these columns yesterday.
AS Lieutenant Governor or OHIO and
member OF Congress from the Canton
district he became well known through
out the coun ry, and was highly es-
teemed for his many excellent qualities.
He was essentially a business man,
succeeding in whatever he undertook
by close attention and industrious ap-
piication to his affairs. He was quiet,
courteous, and digniied in his conduct,
and made many strong friends. He
dies leaving name respected by all
and won by life of honest and useful
endeavor.

has ended by death, could there be a

to his worth, achievements and many
virtues than to elect his son as his

SECRETARY FOSTER, the custodian
of our bankrupt treasury, says Harrison
will not take the stump in his own
behalf this time. This is probably
correct. Four years ago Harrison was
kept busy making speeches to various

sections. This year the labor organiza-
tions and laboring men seem disposed

CAM PAlGN POETS,

The campaign song writers are at II
with vim and vigor. 1t is quite motto
able that most of the songs are Demo
cratic. There is nothing in or about
Little Ben to inspire the muses., and his
cause has not in it the truth and justice
to inspire true poetry. Ohio is furnish
ing her full share of campaign poets,
and by far the most brilliant and catchy
of them all is that audacious champion
of free trade and industrial freedom,
Marshall o. Waggoner of Toledo. Mr..
Wagner has contributed three ringing
songs to the cause, and all have the
jingle, the vim and the fantistic trip
of the true Troubadour. His FIRST if to

couple of verses will give our readers

WHAT HIGH TARIFF HAS DONE FOR
WOOL.
Dayton Times.

Dayton TIme5.
In 1867 John SheI man, in order to
make himself solid with the Ohio wool
grower, induced congress to put a pro-
tective tariff on wool. At that time
Ohio wool was worth 81 cents per pound,
and from thaC time to this as the duty
on wool has been showed up the price
of raw wool has declined In 1870 the
price had dropped to 46 ce ats, in 1880 to
40 cents, and at present is down to 25
cents. In twenty five years, with a
duty 80 high as to shut down hundreds
OF mills because of the cost of raw wool,
the price Of wool has declined to less
than one half of what it then was.
