IS DRESBACH IMP

We notice by q dispatch from Col
umbus thai Hon. Il. Il. Dresbach, late
representative from Stark county, is
mixed ur in the Sherman-Foraker Sen
atorial fight. One dispatch from Col
umbus says:
There was a sensational scene this
afternoon in the House of Representa-
tives not provided for in the rules.
The principals in the affair were Chair
man VIM. Hahn of the Republican
State executive committee, ex-Repre-
sentative Dresbach and IL. w. Tiernan,
who has figured to some extent in the
Investigations of bribery in connection
with the recent election of United
States Senator. The affair came near
resulting In blows. Mr.. Dresbach had
been accused of acting as a middle man
and inviting Mr.. Hahn to Tiernan's
room for the purpose of suppressing
certain statements before the Grand
Jury. When the three gentlemen met
in the lobby OF the House late that af.
ternoon there was scene that soon at
tracted more attention and drew more
interested listeners than did the sheep
bill then under consideration. Mr..
Dresbach demanded to know of Mr..
Hahn If he had ever made any state
ment to the effect that he (Dresbacb)
acted as a middle man for Herman.
Just as Mr.. Hahn partially exonerated
Mr.. Dreshbacb, Mr.. Tiernaa stepped up,
pale as a ghost from anger, and said
"Mr. Hahn, when you are not busy L
want to see you"
"You can see me now," retorted the
angered chairman.
"Well, / want to know if your inter-
views concerning me published this
morning were authorized by you ?" in
quired Tiernan.
"What / said about you was true"
Stepping close to the chairman Mr.,
Tiernan angrily replied "Then, sir, |
will make you prove it,"
"Very vel" replied Hahn, tapping
giernan on the breast with his finger
"You are no good, sir, and had better
go down before the grand jury where
you belong"
BY this time the excitement in the
lobby had become 30 intense that
Speaker Laylin demanded order and
the removal of those parties not entitled
to the privileges of the floor"
From all the signs now seen in Co
lumbus, it looksIas if the greatest pOlit-
ical scandal in the annals of Ohio poll
tics is about to break loose; and If the
real bottom facts get out John Sher-
man may fail to succeed himself as u.
s. Senator.

RESTING IN PEACE.
Funeral and Memorial Services Over the
Late John Paul GeiRer.

Late John Paul Geiger.
John Paul Geiger, was born in Ger
many, September II, 1918, and died at his
residence, one and half miles north Of
Malvern, on the 17th of January, 1892,
aged 73 years, 4 months and days. Up
until short time before his death, he en-
joyed the best of health, He became a
victim of the grippe, and the consequences
we're nervous prostration and apoplexy
He realized that the end of his earthly
journey was near. A day or so before he
died he madea special prayer for his fam
lily, his friends, his pastor and church. In
his last hours he talked much about the
welfare Of the new church at Malvern.
This church laments and deeply feels his
loss. For years he has been it's main pill
lar, serving in the capacity of an elder
and trustee. He has always been liberal
cheerfully responding to the cause of be-
nevolence. The mantle Of his Christian
example and piety should be worn not
only by the members of his family but by
every member of the congregation. He
emiRrated to America in the year 1925
and settled on the adjoining farm where
he lived period of nifty years, when he
located on the farm where he died.

mony to Miss Mary Magdalea Snyder in
the year l8i3. They enjoyed married
life together of more than AS years, and
in less than two years had his life been
spared. they would have lebrated their
golden wedding. The union was blessed
with six children, one son and five
daughters; the Oldest daughter died
in infancy. His wife. one son
four daughters and twenty grand chilren
survive to mourn the departure of an
aiFectionate and devoted father, a faith

was baptised in infancy in the old country
and waa confirmed and received into the
Reformed CHURCH since living in this
vicinity at the age of lG by Rev. Peter
Herbruck.
Last Wednesday the goth, at p. m. the
friends and neighbors met at the resi-
dence of the deceased where appropriate

CHICAGO GETS IT.

Chicago has been selected as the place
for nominating the next President of
the United States, and June 2lst is the
date. This makes it quite handy for
us, and a big crowd of Democrats will
go up from Canton to enjoy the festivi,
Ties of the occasion. Chicago is the
greatest convention city in the United
States, and the man of our choice who
comes out of that convention orna-
mented with Presidential nomination
is as sure to be President as the 2lst of
June sunset is to cast its auburn CLEAN
of glory over the bosom of Lake
Michigan.

with his back to Harrison, holds out a
big olive branch, with a jar of picked
olives before him. The surrounding

PRESIDENT HARRIsoN's belligerent
attitude in the Chile broil may force
Blaine from the cabinet, as well as
from the Presidential race. AS has
been heretofore remarked the war
party is the popular party in this coun-
try, where even the women, organized
in the name of charity, would rather
fight than pray any day. And Harri-
son does not propose to let reciprocity
and diplomacy have walk away If he
can help it.

A Bit of Bad Manners.

A great many things there are in
this world that are essentially bad form,
but one glaring, narrowing misde-
meanor is fault that hundreds of those
who ought to know better indulge in
with reckless unconsciousness that they
are not doing exactly as they should.
It is the taking Of lady's arm by her
escort, rather than the offering of his
own for her acceptance. There should
never be any question of arms at all
In daylight, but when gentleman
escorts lady to church or place OF
amusement in the evening let him take
heed lest he fall into this very popular
error.
There is something about it that
seems common. A certain familiarity
perhaps or falling off in the undeviat-
ing respect that ought to predominate
the attitude of man toward woman.
We do not advocate the ceremony that
permits man only to see woman
whom he admires when surrounded by
members of her family, but it is very
distasteful to see man SO happy to be
alone with girl that be clutches b hold
Of her to the evident amusement of on
lockers and the embarrassment of the
owner of the arm that is so familiarly
entangled with his.
IF the women would only start the
crusade against this everyday bit of
bad manners and gently but firmly in
sist on a different method of being
propelled along there would be fewer
couples strolliag in rural bliss through
the streets Of the city.
Take it up. 1t certainly is thing
to be tabooed by every self-respecting
woman or girl, and when the men are
made to see the awkward light in
which their thoughtless action places
their companion, if they are the sem
sible creatures we take them to be.
they will put an end to practice that
savors of the "Bowery. "-Philadel-
phia Times.

Trial of the Benson Murder Case.

George Henry Hutt, Julia Eutt,
Dan. Miller and Jim Johnson, ali
colored were arranged Tuesday morn
ing in the court of Oyer and Terminer
for the murder Of Noah Benson at
Delaware City last November. The
following jurors were drawn: James
Gearey, foreman Marshall A.. Jordan,
Walter S. Money, Moses B. Flemming,
Samuel ]. Mccall, Joseph G. Mousley,
Samuel Moore, Thomas G. Porter,
James III. Frazier. Theodore w. Hanf,
Frank r. Mcguire, Robert p. Barr.
Many witnesses are being examined,
but no testimony bearing directly u pom
the case has been brought out by the
state. The evidence is purely circum-
stantial. DR.. Formal of Philadelphia
has testified that the blood on the cloth
ing taken from the Hutts was human
blood, but p. L. Cooper, ESQ.,, counsel
for the defence, took the value out of
the Doctors's testimony by asking him
some pointed questions concerning re-
cent murder trials in which he had
testified. Attorney General Nicholson
states that he relies solely upon circum-
stantial evidence to make out his case,
and 1t is generally conceded that it is a
weak one. The counsel for defense
has so conducted the case with mar ked
ability and it is conceded that the
negroes on trial are not the guilty
parties.

THE Evening Journal gave an ac-
count of the disgraceful scene which
occurred here Saturday night and
possibly overdrew the picture some-
what, but as a matter of fact the ac-
count was not far from beiug correct.
This street fight is only one of many
which are sure to occur should the
town be left in its present unguarded
condition. Saturday evenings the
negroes from the surrounding country
come to town tor lay in provisions for
the ensuing week and some Of them
imbibe too freely before leaving for
their homes. The consequence of this
indulgence is that they become bolster
GUS and occupy too much spacc on the
sidewalks. They seem to imagine that
they are privileged characters and con-
sequently do not consider it necessary
to be orderly or decent. They congre-
gate in crowds and render unsafe the
passage through the streets. Saturday
night two or three of them stopped
carriage right in the centre of the town
and for their pains each received
broken head.
They threatened prominent gentle
men passing quietly along the public
highway. OF course the negroes are
ignorant and imagine that white men
wish to do them harm, but that is no
excuse for their obscene and profane
language with which they make night,
hideous and excite the white people Of
the town to the point of desperation.
The way to avoid trouble in the future
is simple and easy. The Board of |
Commissioners should appoint at once
number of officers sufficient to keep
the negroes in motion and prevent
corner lounging. They should order
the arrest of any man, black or white,
who disturbs the peace and detain in
the cell all drunks until the offenders
are in good condition to get out of
town quickly.
Temporizing will do no good let it
be understood that the ordinances of
the town and the laws of the state
must be strictly obeyed and no further
Trouble will be experienced. +
