met Harmonious.
WASHINGTON, April 81. - President
Cleveland's attitude on the financial
question, as expressed in his interview
have practically silenced all the gossip
about the intentions of the administrl.
tion. He said:
THE inclination on the part Of the
public to accept newspaper reports con.
corning the intentions of those charged
with the management Of our national
finances seems to Justify my emphatic
contradiction of the statement that the
redemption of any kind of treasury
notes except in gold has at any time
been determined urOn or contemplated
by the secretary Of ne treasury or any
other member OF the present admins.
tration. The president and his cabine.
are absolutely harmonious in the deter.
mination to exercise every power con
ferred upon them to maintain the public
credit, to keep the public faith and to
preserve the parity between gold and
silver and between all financial obliga.
lions Oh tne government
while the law of 1890, forcing the
purchase of a fixed amount Of silver
every month, provides that the secretary
Of the treasury in his discretion may re.
deem in either gold or silver the
treasury notes given in payment of
silver purchases, yet the declaration Of
the policy of the government to main.
tain the parity between the two metals
seems so clearly to regulate this discre.
tion as to dictate their redemption in
gold.
"Of course perplexities and difficulties
have grown out of an unfortunate finan-
cial policy which we found in vogue and
embarrassments have arisen from ill
advised financial legislation confronting
us at every turn; but with cheerful con-
fidence among the people and patriotic
disposition to cooperate, threatened
dangers will be averted pending a legis-
lative return to a better and sounder
financial plan.
"The strong credit of the country still
unimpaired and the good sense of our
people, which has never failed in time
of need, are at hand to save us from
disaster "

LENoRE SHERWOOD MARBl

A PROMINENT Republican lawyer of
Canton confirms our report from Xenia
that General Charles l.. Young, Super
intendent of the Xenia Soldiers
Orphans Home, is about to commence
an action for libel against Lawyer j j.
Clark, of Canton, for charges of immor-
ality, etc, made by Clark in his formal
statement before the Board of State
Charities. Generally we are opposed to
libel suits; but it is claimed by General
Young and his friends, including the
Canton lawyer referred to, that this is
clear case of malice. The NEWS
DEMOCRAT has no direct information
from General Young, but if such an
action is to be commenced we presume
the petition will be filed during the
next two weeks. General Young Is an
old soldier who was twice wounded In
battle, and he carries on his person the
scars of war. He is quite sensitive as
to his moral character, and If he should
commence an action for libel in our
courts, we are certain he would be ac-
corded fair trial and a just verdict by
a Stark county jury. Our Stark county
courts and juries, we are proud to say,
deal Justly with all men according to
their deserts.

SENATOR MITCHELL, of Oregon,
passed through Pittsburg on the Co
lumbian express Saturday night, en-
route TO his home in Portland. Senator
Mitchell is Republican, but he is far
western in his financial views. In an in
terview on President Cleveland's gold
paying policy, the Senator said:
"Mr. Cleveland Is alone responsible
for the use Of the gold surplus. The
law makes the Treasury notes payable
in coin, without specifying gold or
silver. 1 believe that had Secretary
Carlisle had his way he would have re-
deemed the notes in silver. The Presi-
dent, however, wanted them paid in
gold, and Mr.. Carlisle deferred to his
wishes. Had not Mr.. Cleveland inter-
fered there would have been no neces-
sity for the present calling in of gold
from all over the country"

Dunn's Review of Trade.

Monetary doubts have overshadowed all
other influences at New York, but have
not yet greatly affected trade at most
other points. Thus outside reports re-

to Lhe highest point known for many
years, and orders for shipment of nearly
H,O00,0O0 gold on Saturday, part of it
going to Canada, have led to much
speculative liquidation. Stocks have de.
clined over 81 per share for the week
While rates for money on call and for
commercial paper have not as yet been
seriously affected, few important fail

AND SUCH is FAME.

Two men met at the depot yesterday
One was a city official, the other man
of affairs Outside the city. They talked,
as men do when they meet, instead of
staring each other out of countenance
as women do.
Politics was we'll canvassed by both,
then the traveller said to the local
official
"Too bad that Booth has had an.
other stroke of paralysis"
"Booth, Booth, lot me see" the local
official was beginning to say, when the
traveller took compassion and helped
him out.
"Edwi Booth, the great tragedian,
he said.
20 yes" was the reply, 81 think
have heard of him."
And this of the great Booth, king of
the drama, who has thrilled the millions,
as they we're never thrilled before; with
his masterful and subdued passion, his
insight into the hearts of men.
This of Booth who taught Shakes
peare to America and clothed his heroes
with flesh and blood and interested
them with the passions and attributes
of men.
This OF Booth, the wounded lion,
wrestling nightly with incurable
disease and who with the death damp
on his forehead talks hopefully of
recovery and return to the triurnphs
of the stage.
Such is fame; but vapor rising
from the engine when the throttle is
open; breath blown upon the frosty
pane.
Happily for Edwin Booth he
gathered his laurels as he went and
wreathed his own brow for the heights
of Parnassus.

DIPHTHER1A of the most malignant

DIPHTHERIA of the most malignant
type RACES at Warren, Pennsylvania.
The State Board sof Health has been
called upon to investigate the cause.
1t will probably be found that the
water supply ii impure and that the
town is full of filth The way to pre-
vent diphtheria and the fevers and
epidemics born of impure water and
impure air is to keep every city abso-
lutely clean. Canton is blessed with
pure water. Now If our Board of
Health has the hearty cooperation of
our citizens, and our people refrain
from the use of water from our old
wells, we shall have hopes of freedom
from all the death dealing maladies of
our sister cities. || .NFl
