CANTON ENvlEO.

A Gentleman Who Believes That the q.
A. Band is One of the Best Organiza-
tions Alive.
The Grand Army band Of this city is
certainly achieving fame upon its trip to
Chicago, and Canton people have reason
to feel proud of an aggregation of "wind
TANNERS" who are attracting more atten>
ton and shown more favors than any or.
ganiz alton of musicians which has yet
visited the White City. W. r. Davies, of
Cleveland, who passed through this city
Monday on his wsy home from the Fair,
said: "There 10 one thing which envy
you Canton folks In, and that Ia your ex-
cellept band. / never fully realized
what o superb organic alton It was until

Chicago. was there when they arrived
upon the grounds and like many others
was under the impression that II was a
professional band from the east. ImSR-
Inc my surprise upon finding that they
were from my own state. The words OF
praise they have received have been meI-
tied, and the Fifth Regiment boys could
the purpose.n To verify this statement
the Cleveland Plain Dealer says:
"The sight at dress parade was indeed
inspiring. The band was In full dress
white trousers, high black boots, black
appearance was the signal for an outburs
OF applause that echoed clear down ths

WORK ON THE TARIFF.

The New Ways and Means Committee

WASHINGTON, Aug. % Especial. THE

Wilson Of West Virginia is chsirman, or>
ganizs today. Chairman Wilson states
that while he cannot undertake 10 say
what will be done unless he consults with
his colleagues, still he 10 Of the opinion
that work will at once be begun on q tariff
bill. Mr.. Wilson does not mean, per>
haps, that the measure will be reported at
an early day, but the preliminary prepSr-
Ations will be made and plan mapped
out SO that early in the fall the committee
can put in shape revision of the tariff.
The length of the present session may
have some effect upon the time when the
Ways and Means Committee will prepare
bill. There ia some talk now OF an early
adjournment as soon as the Senate dis
poses of the silver question until some
time later In the fall. The senate will
not act upon the Wilson bill for several
weeks yet, and II is thought that the
President will recommend that Congress
remain here aud begin the work OF tariff
reform at once, In accordance with the
suggestion made In the closing paragraphs
Ia his recent message.
Mr.. Wilson does not know yet whether
the Ways and Means Committee will give
the usual hearings TO interested parties.
The meeting of the new committee may
develop some informs alton az to whether
the work of tariff reform is to begin al
once or not.

EDITOR DEMOCRAT: The huckster and

that this ordinance effects farmers. And
since farmers are not lawyers, are not
posted on the state law, which exempts
the farmer from the operation of any
such ordinances, and the farmers should
be informed of the fact that they can sell
their own products, and cannot be pro.
hibited, but some unprincipled person has
circulated the report to the contrary. As

ster they are peddlers. But then the
