OF all the many things that should interest
those who are careful as TO the public health
none are Of greater importance than the dis
infection Of sewage. Scientists have given the
matter much thought and in many cities have
materially decreased the dangers naturally
consequent. upon the foolishly free circulation
of poisonous refuse that taints the atmosphere
and does great deal toward the spreading of the
flthiest and most fatal forms of disease. Solids
and fluids Of many kinds have been used In
efforts to destroy the germs which emanats
from animal and vegetable putrsfsc-
ton, but it was not until two
days ago tina. the public became aware Of the
fact that electricity will do that which no other
chemical agent has been able to accomplish.
Prof. Albert z. Woolf is the inventor Of the
process, and the experiments have been CON
Quoted in the tswn Of Brewster, N. Y. The
methods have the appearance Of extreme sim
plicity. By electrolysis huid disinfsctsnt il
produced and the product 10 conveyed into the
sewer. where 1t promptly proceeds to kill such
germs as those Of cholera, diphtheria, scarlet
fever. measles, typhoid and typhus. The
method Of manufacturing this anti-bscterial
liquid was inspected by DIR. Cyrus Ed
number Of other practical and experienced
wrestlers with unhygienic conditions, and they
were much pleased They went to the mouth
of the sewer and remarked the absence Of
odors and watched Prof. Woolf - he took aglass
OF the refuse and poured into 1t q quantity Of
iodide Of potassium 10 reveal the presence Of 9
most powerful germicide-ozone. subsequently,
the party saw the professor immerses piece Of
extensively putrid meat in his disinfecting solu-
ton for one minute and were amazed when ct
the end Of that brief period the beef
was restored to healthy color and
was without smell It 10 said tina.

IL IL rather surprising that the few mon who

era, whether they appear in the courts, before
Congress or at the District building, should
have permitted the case Of Patrick ]. MELON
ough TO 20 70 trial, for although II resulted In
An apparent victory for the dealer there Is
within the rosy spple that which will not only
speedily render II inedible but also prevent the
growth Of other fruis that might perhaps have
proven luscious. The case vas not q complicated
one. McDonough sold intcx;csnts at Wholesale
under license issued In accordance with the
Law Of 1878. and although he violated that
Law BY permitting liquor to be con-
sumed on the premises there was no
punishment because the law was faulty in that
respect But with that the present case has no
connection The charge was keeping an I'M
licensed bar, and after hearing the testimony
judge Miller decided-hs really could do
nothing else-that the old license was good
throughout this license year.
As the matter now stands McDonough and all
other holders Of licenses issued prior to March
s msy sell at any hour or on any day until No.
vember and yet cannot be prosecuted because
the Court Of Appeals has decided that the
penalties Of the old law we're wiped
out by the statute Of March 8.
The condition Of affairs is disgrscefully
anomalous. Extraordinary no matter how it
IL looked at and discreditabls to our national
lawmakers. With this decision on which to
stand . large number Of liquor dealers may
sell without let or hindrance for q season, but
IL they do the day Of reckoning will arrive.
The unrestrained sale Of liquor for three or
four months may be the one thing needed to
bring about the enactment Of law that will be
stringent enough to protect the community's
morals from such vicious sssault and to make
the evadsrs Of decent requirements sorry they
had not sense enough to control their lawless
desires.

"And shut the windows when itnains."

Goodbye"
Then they kissed and parted .snd the traveller
with some difficulty extracted her ticket from

DR.. Briggs himself asserts that this force will
probably work no injury TO the Presbyterian
Church, but he Ia confident that the ultra con-
sentative" party must be destroyed byit But the
doctors liberal Views are not denominasionslly
bounded, and although he debates ~ to the
future Of that organization in which ne has the
greatest interest be sees clearly that "all
American churches are in the stream OF that
tendency which Is rushing on toward the unity
of Christ's church. The hedges which separate
the denominations are traditional theories and
practices; but they are no longer realities to
thinking and working men and women" This
plain statement il q feature Of the Briggs argu-
mont, which has it that day after day there is
living testimony to prove beyond q per-
adventure that the liberals Of every
Christian denomination are in hearty
accord with each other-probably, as
DR.. Briggs suggests, more 50 than they are with
the conservatives Of the bodies to which they
belong. The question to be answered in the
near future Is thus stated: "Can the liberals
remain in comfort in their several denomina-
tions and SO become the bridges Of church
unity; or will they be forced to unite in . COM
prehensive frame Of church unity outside ths
existing denominations; or will they rally
around the more liberal communions?" And
after asserting that the liberals are made COM
Portable among Episcopalisns, Congregation
alists, Baptists and Methodis.s and most un-
comfortable among Presbyterians, the agsres-
sive disputant-the thorn in the General As
sembly's fesh-says that the liberals may posi-
bly,, after q year or more OF battle for
liberty, be compelled to retire from the
existing Presbyterian Church and abandon
1t to traditional, unscholarly and
fossilized majority; and then organize liberal
Presbyterian Church, as has been done twice
before in this country" He does not regard
such . movement as likely to occur soon. He
believes the liberals will struggle on, will in
vestisate, will continue to study the higher
criticism, will continue to seek God through
the church and the reason a. well as the Bible,
viii be patient, brave, palnstaking and heroic
until the Presbyterian Church becomes -
broad, catholic and progressive as her Congre-
gational and Episcopal sisters" will be part Of
. united Protestantism which Is to move
toward the 'grander unity in which the Roman
and Greek communions viii likewise share"
Tho robust If Conservative opponents Of
DIR. Briggs will probably not be content to al
low him to block out future for Presbyterian
ism, and no doubt . reply to his Reuisu article
viii be forthcoming soon.

ST. JOHN ON FRAUDS,

Ex-Governor st. John, of Kansas,
recently addressed large meeting at
Bowling Green, Ohio. Gov. st. John
is Prohibitionist, and not a good Judge
of whiskey, but on frauds, that are
visible to the ordinary observer, he is
immense. Here are few rare gems of
thought from his address:
MCKINLEY is a great man and can
come the nearest to making buttermilk
out of chalk and water than any other
man know. If Ohio wishes to elect
clever man, then Mckinley will fill
the bill; but 1 want to tell you right
here that his tariff bill is the greatest
rObber scheme ever sprung on the
American public.
Farmers who owned their farms
few years ago are now becoming ten
ants, and it is the tendency to make
the rich richer and the poor poorer. 1t
is all bosh that tariff protects the labor
ing man;it protects only the monOpo-
list and manufacturer.
"Since the Mckinley act passed more
strikes have occurred than in a quarter
of a century previous.
have no time to discuss the measure
at length, but let US see. Here is one
example:
Diamonds in the rough, and other
Brazilian stones, free; wool blankets so
per cent"
OF course lots of Ohio farmers wear
diamonds in the rough on their shirt
fronts.
Here is another one for the farmers:
STUFFED birds free; wool hats So per
cent"
Ohio farmers don't wear wool hats,
but very frequently purchase stuffed
birds to set on the gate posts and to
their shade trees.

SHERMAN HITS M'KlNLEY HARD.

The most terrific blow struck at Nc.
Kialey was struck by Senator John
Sherman, in the United States Senate
yesterday, Tuesday Speaking for the
repeal of his own silver law, John Sher-
man said:
"Break down this barrier now main
tanned by the United States Senate;
break up this violent and insolent OBJ
structiOn to the will of the majority;
give the >enate free power and play
and in ten days from this time the skies
will brighten, busines will resume its
ordinary course, and all the clouds that
lowered over us in the deep bosom of
the ocean will be buried"
According 20 Sherman, the calamity
howls of Mckinley, about the panic
being due to fear Of change in the
tariff, has 40 basis whatever. Accord
ing to Sherman, all we need TO do now
is to repeal the law, that Sherman
fathered and engineered through the
Senate, in 1890, and all will be well.
What confession is this!
1t leaves Mckinley without even
rotten peg to hang a calamity croak on.

SPOT ALL BooDLeRs.


The Massillon Independent is rather
tardy in approving the Doodle letter of
Dick, the Governors moral (p) agentin
this campaign, but the Independent,
like the bed bug with no wings, gets
there just the same.
However, the Independent is not
quite so brazen as thelAlliance Review,
and is even more guarded than the
Evening Rep: Lest we be accused of
misrepresentation we quote from the
Independent, its feeble defense of
Doodle Dick:
chairman Dick seems to follow
closely the text of some of Mr.. Whit
ney's letters on the same subject. 1t
will be remembered that Mr.. Whitney
quoted "He gives twice who gives
quickly" In relation to the $50 600 with
which Van Allen bought the Italian
embassy. Sensible people know that
legitimate political work requires an
expenditure of money"
The Independent fails to mention
that Mr.. Whitney denies that the dude
Van Allen gave $4,000 to the Demo-
cratic campaign fund last year. 1t
also fails to mention that every respect
able Democratic paper in the United
States, that has spoken on the Van
Allen appointment, has condemned it
as one unfit to be made.
The NEWS DEMOCRAT takes no
stock whatever in Van Allen, or any of
his kidney.
We take no stock in a political
boodler, whether he bea Republican or
a bogus Democrat.
No true Democrat can be a boodler
and we are against Doodle methods, no
matter by whom practiced:
The Republican party claims to be a
party of principles and high moraI
ideas. Does any sane man claim that
Chairman Dick is running McKinleys
campaign on high moral ideas, or on
decent methods.
If not, then all good citizens, all men
who believe in honest political endeavor
must disapproye of Dicks methods.
And the only way to make that disap-
proval effective is to
Vote the Democratic ticket.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1893-10-19
is This AN HONEST coNFEssToN9

Three years ago the greatest 6nan-
cier of the Republican party, Johr
Sherman, formulated law to provide
for the coinage of silver. 1t wa'
adopted by a Republican caucus COM
posed of members Of both the Senate
and the House. 1t was endorsed or
the floor of the House by that Other
great financier, statesman and seer
VIM. Mckinley, then chairman of the
| Ways and Means committee. Itpassed
both houses of Congress by the votes
of Republicans, then In control at both
ends of the Capitol. 1t was approved
by Republican President.
Now what do we seep
We read that John Sherman, (the
same john arose yesterday, clothed in
the same senatorial toga of 1890, and
made the solemn proclamation that II
the Senate would repeal his own law,
that the money panic would end and
peace and prosperity would prevail in
this land.
What u refreshing confession is this
Grover Cleveland is President.
The Democrats are In a majority in
the House.
The Democrats are in a majority in
the,Ssnate.
And yet John Sherman, the biggest
RspuDliean statesman and oracle be-
tween old Cape Cod and Alaska, says
all we need now to secure prosperity Is
to repeal the law that John Sherman
championed in the Senate, and VIM.
Mckinley championed in the House, in
1890.
Think of the all-pervading magni-
tude of this abject and awful confes-
sion.
Think of the attitude in which 1t
leaves our VIM. Mckinley, governor.
Why, VIM. Mckinley, governor, is
now telling large audiences of citi-
zens every day, that all the finan-
cial ills that afllct US are
caused by the fear that VIM. McKinley's
robber tariff is about to be knocked
out.
Was there ever such ridiculous pre-
dicament as this?
Which is right, John or Williams
Which one knows the most about
finance?
We hear a shrill, small voice, very
penetrating, evidently from near
bank vault, saying; John is inan-
cier, VIM. is not"
"John has made millions in discreet
and cumulative legislation, while VIM,
lost 100000 in too much confidence in
a tin plate mill, which his friends were
compelled to liquidate."
John has every confidence in Grover
Cleveland's administration.
VIM. claims to have none, and is
bowling calamity with destructive tier
alton every day.
Under these distressful circum-
stances we have right to demand that
Chairman Dick, either shut up John or
call down William.
