The Breckenridge Case.

Ii II learned that Colonel Brock

fence that is unexpected, and will
probably turn the tide OF public
sympathy in his favor
When the charges made against
him by Miss Pollard come to trial
ne will deny absolutely every one
OF them, aud his dcnials will be
supported by the strongest sort OF
proof. He was never engaged 70
Miss Pollard, and at no time led
her to believe that she was to BIZ
his wife He will prove that none
of the implications in Miss Pol
lard's breach of promise suit eau
be laid coBclusively at his door.
Colonel Breckenridge will prove
fAhermore that he never intro,
duced Miss Pollard to Mrs Luke P.
Blackburn as his future wife, and
that the latter had never stated as
much to General Duke or anyone
else.

The Worlds Fair.


People with nerves not steady
need TO keep away from the exhibit
10 anihropology and ethnolcgy.
The building ia which this exhibit
is housed is ava, down at The
southern emf of the grouDds, be
ing one Of the group completed by
the Fore2iry and shoe aud Leather
buildings. There is a great deal to
interest those who care to study
the habits Of people of all races
both prehistoric and present.
No doubt the Colorado exhibit
draws greatest crowds, followed by
Peru's. In the former great space
is given to the relics OF Cliff Dwell
lers aid nothing more CHASTITY
could well lie conceived. People
who died and were buried hundreds
and hundreds of years ago had lit
tie idea that in this day and age Of
the world their corpses would be
placed on exhibition before curious
thouSande. Yet there they are,
distorted, dried and horrible the
flesh hanging from their brown
bones in . manner to make sqGeam-
isb people rush out for fresh air.
Heads which have long since part,
ed with their bodies occasionally
slartle the visitor, while thigh
bones, fibs, shoulder blades AID
the like are scattered about in pro.
fusion. Mummies of women with
bibes on their breasts, children in
all sorts Of postures and men with
bodies bent and distorted compete
the horrible scene, while row after
row of heshless skulls look down
from shelves ranges ranged about
the wall, grinningat the descend.

Keen Logic on the Silver
Question.

As long as the silver men see
chance to bring sixty cents worth
of bullion to the Mint and have it
coined into a dollar they will clam
or for free coinage But why not
permit the oil men to take a sixty
cent barrel OF oil to the govern
ment and have il refined free OF
charge with a handsome pretit, or
the farmer TO take a bushel OF wheat
to the government mill and get a
bushel of -four in return, or the
hemlock man to take thousand
feet of logs to the government SOW
mill and come away with thou
aand feet ~ temlock boards This
is not a government for the silver
men. 1t is a government for the
whole people. II the government
wants to coin more silver, it had
better begin on the thousands Of
tons 1t has of lis own and work that
up before going into the lIade TO
other folks.

Wheat as a Fat Producer.

Larue County Herald A Mer-
Ger county farmer states that he fed
his wheat to hogs the past season,
keeping careful account of every
item, and when the hogs were sold
he found he had realized 81 AZ a
bushel for his wheat. A farmer in
another county claims to have re-
allied 81 81 for his wheat in the
same manner, and further states
that wheat makes better feed for
horses as well as hogs than corn.

HOIST BY THEIR OWN PETARo,

The Larry Neal plan is to make
sugar cost 10 cents pound instead of
five, tea 40 cents instead of 30 and coffee
40 cents instead of 80. There is no
need of this; indeed, there Is little sense
in it.-Evening Repository.
The above is copied from one of the
boiler plate editorials prepared at head
quarters for the Republican press of
Ohio. 1t appeared In the Rep. on
Thursday. Ofcourse there is no truth in
1t, and the author did not intend there
should be. Larry Neal has elaborated
no plan to increase the price Of either
sugar or coffee. In fact, Larry Neal
will have nothing to do with regulat-
ing the price of sugar and
coffee, If elected Governor The
Governor of Ohio does not make tariffs
and If Larry Neal was q candidate fol-
any Office where he was called upon to
make tariffs he would take the tax of
all articles In common use, consumed
by the middle class and the poor, and
The great and only Mckinley claims
the foreigner pays the tariff taxes. II
this is true, then putting tariff on
sugar and coffee would compel the
foreigner to pay duty and would be that
much saved to our home consumers
Again, the Evening Repository lin its
boiler plate stuff) does not seem to know
that only raw sugar is on the free list
People do not eat raw sugar. Refined
sugar is now taxed, for the benefit OF
the sugar trust, and the consumer pays
the tax,

A REPUBLICAN LIE NAILED.
Democratic Shops Running Full Time
Republican Shops Shut Down Tight.
From the Akron Democrat.

From the Akron Democrat.
On Thursday, Oct. 10, the Beacon, in
an attempt to show that Democratic
shops in Ohio are closed, printed the
following:
"Last night the Beacon told that the
John ii. Thomas shops at Springfield
Mr.. Thomas Is thorough Democrat
are closed tight as a drum. These
shops surely are not kept closed In or.
der to elect Mckinley"
To nail this particular Beacon lie
the Democrat the same evening the lie
was published telegraphed the Hon.
VIM. II. Burnett, ex-mayor of the city
of Springfield, for the facts In the case
and this is the answer that came flying
back over the wire:
SPRINGFIELD, o., Oct. 10, 1898.
VIM. B. DoBsoN, Akon, o.:
HON. JOHN H. THoMAs's SHOPS IN
THIS CITY ARE RUNNING FULL
FORCE. VIM. h. BURNETT,
The facts are, that in Canton, In
Mansfield, In Cuyahoga Falls, In Toledo
in Akron, and everywhere else in Ohio
the shops owned by Democratic manu-
facturers are running full time, full
force, and no "cut" In wages.
But the shops In Akron owned by
Republican bosses are closed down, al
the Beacon says, slight as drum"
What Is the reason Democratic shopl
are running as usual while Republican
shops are closed?
Is 1t not a conspiracy by the Repub.
lican bosses to keep their shops CLOSED

into voting for Mckinley and McKin-

LABoRlNe MEN HAVE MEMORIES,

Some of the hired street howlers for
Mckinley are badly off on statistics,
status and dates. One of the gang was
proclaiming aloud on the public square
last evening that 1t was the election
of Grover Cleveland that had knocked
out the good effects Of the Mckinley
tariff
a Democrat suggested to him that
ver Clevelnnd was not elected until
or two years after the Mckinley tariff
as enacted, and that he did not be-
Jome President until years and 5
m0nts after the Mckinley tariff became
law. To this statement the hired
calamity h0wler put in q vehement
denial. "Why," he said, "Cleveland was
elected Immediately after the McKin-
ley bill passed" and he stuck to 1t.
As the Mckinley bill became law
in October, 1890, and Grover Cleveland
Vns inaugursted President March 4th,
IL 3, the Mckinley law had two years
RId Eve months of uninterrupted
trit !. uuder Republican President.
WHAT was the result9
According to the non-partisan COM
mercial reports of Dun & Co., there
we're more business failures In the
United States the year following the
Mckinley tariff law than for any pIevi-
Gus year for fifteen years. The report
of the Labor Bureau shows there were
more strikes, more lock-outs, more
labor reductions In protected indus
tries than for any one year since the
great Republican panic of 1878.
The passage of the Mckinley law
was followed by money panic In New
York, caused by the immense drain on
New York banks for money to secure
the enormous importations of foreign
goods and wares, in advance of the
operation of the enhanced duties, fixed
by the Mckinley bill.
This money panic In New York pre-
cipitated the failure of the great Due
Der Watch works In Canton, which
caused more business failures, more
suffering among the poor, more dis
tress among skilled laborers in Canton
than ever before known.
Every laboring man and every busi-
ness man in Canton knows this to be
true.
Four months after the passage of the
Mckinley bill, the New York World
printed list of
TEN THOUSAND SHOPS AND FACTORIES
in ~ United States, that had cut labor
fl 10 to % cents.

SENATOR SHERMAN writes from
Washington that he cannot come to
Ohio to aid Mckinley In his howls of
calamity and to argue for the repeal of
his own law. Jonn evidently has some
sense Of propriety. He don't care to
come to Chic to denounce law that
only three years ago he upheld in the
Senate aud on the stump Gas we have
the documents to prove) as the sum
and substance of financial wis
dom. Sherman's excuse Is that
he can't get away from the
Senate. This amounts to no excuse at
all. Sherman is not needed In the Sen
ate. He Is In the minority, and is bet
ter off In Ohio, and out of the way,
than In the Senate. Hence his failure
to come to Ohio is owing to intestinal
feeling, deep and grumbly, that the
cause Of Nc cKinleyism and Shermanism
can go overheard, without his suppli-
cation.
