An Extremely Bad Section for Calam.
ity and Hard Times Howlers.
The demand for woolens is grow
ing rapidly. Up till the first of Sep
tember the Martinsburg Woolen
Mills Company was able to fill all
it's orders running half time. Since
then it has had to run full time and
last week an effort was made to get
sufficient hands to run the mill
night and day. This could not be
done, so all the force was put on
five-quarter time, working till o
o'clock. This will be kept up till
enough men can be got to work
double turn, unless the employees
refuse to continue, as they threaten
to do, the hours being too long.
The Kilbourne Knitting Mills of
Martinsburg are overrun with or
ders and even working five-quarter
time does not make it possible to
keep even with the orders offered.
An addition to the mill has been
commenced, and it is hoped to have
it in operation in two months. The
company already has two factories
running full.

MERRY WAR
Among Wholesale Gr0cers Over Price
Of Sugar-Local Aspect
of the Fight.

OF the right.
The Columbus Dispatch says: The
wholesale grocers of this city and
elsewhere are very much interest
ed in the outcome of the sugar war.
Several of the Chicago wholesale
houses purchased large amounts of
sugar on speculation, believing that
there would be rise in price when
the tariff bill passed. Instead of
rising, the price Of sugar has fallen
! cent on some grades, and even as
much as cent per pound on others.
The Chicago people are of course
very anxious to unload the enorm.
Gus stock which they have on hand.
The Illinois Association broke
away from the agreement by which
sugar has the same price all oyer
the country, and which governs the
dealings of wholesalers in the sale
Of all other lines of groceries. The
Indiana Association gave notice a
short time ago that they would only
maintain the agreement until the
10th of this month, refusing to out
line their course after that date.
A Cincinnati paper gave the in
formation this morning that the
firm of Minor & Dixon in that city,
firm which has heretofore OBJ
served the rules of the Ohio Whole
sale Grocers' Association, though
not member of it, has decided to
cut prices on sugar.
Mr.. Orrin Thacker, Secretary of
the Ohio Association with head
quarters in this city, who has been
away attending the funeral of his
daughter, returned this morning.
He telegraphed Mr.. Robert j.
Smith, one of the. directors of the
association at Cincinnati, to find
out the truth in regard to Minor
and Dixon and try to hold the Gin
cinnati dealers firm. Mr.. Thacker
decided to 60 to Ft. Wayne, Ind,
and left at noon. He believes that
he can induce the Indiana dealers
to keep the agreement in so far as
it effects Ohio, at any rate. The
Ft. Wayne dealers are the only
Indiana firms who do any large
amount of business in this state.
Word has been received from Mich
igan that the wholesalers of that
state will stand firm. 1t is believed
by the wholesalers here that in
few days the furry will blow over
and matters will be moving as
smoothly as ever.

SWORN TESTIMONY
OF John E. Searles, Secretary and
Treasurer of the American
Sugar Refining Co.


The CHAIRMAN. Does 40 per
cent and an eighth diferential give
you the protection you desire?
Mr.. SEARLEs. No, sir. We do
not think that one-eighth is suhi.
cient differential to give us ade-
quate protection.
SENATOR ALLEN. You may
state briefly what difference, in
your judgement, there is between
the M cKinley act and the pending
act, as the Senate proposes to a.
mend it, or has amended it, to the
American Sugar Refining Co.;
which is the better act for you?
MR.. SEARLEs. The McKinleu
bill, by far.
MR.. ALLEN. How much?
MIR. SEARLEs. think one half
That is, think the protection in
the margin to tho refiner in the pro-
posed schedule is not over one
half of what it is in the Mckinley
bill.

STATISTICS of labor disturbances
have been recently compiled. They
present a startling picture. They
show more strikes, lockouts and la.
Dor contentious for justice and fail
treatment at the hands of capital
under the Mckinley tariff than ev.
er before in double the length ol
time in the history of this govern
ment. They show that within two
years after October 6, 1890, when
the Mckinley tariff became law,
more than five hundred strikes in
resistance to wage reductions took
place in the various states of the
Union; that uproar and contention
between protected capital and i'm
poverished labor ragged almost con-
tinuously from day to day, while
the homes of humble toll were filed
with distress, often with want, and
sometimes with cold-blooded, bru-
tai murder. The manufacturer,
when fully protected, always feels
free, without hesitation or remorse,
and at his own will and pleasure,
to reduce the workingmen's wages,
but who ever heard of him Offering
to reduce the tariff-raised prices of
his manufactured goods, necessi-
ties of life, which the workingmen
is compelled to buy OF him?

THE OHIO DEMOCRAT WEDNESDAY,. OCTOBER IL 1901

and they all wondered how II hap
pened. Why, there wasn't any
"happened" about it. We just
voted our ticket and there were
224 more Of us than there were Re-
publicans and that is all there was
of it. Now Democrats in the coun-
try, show them that we are the
livliest set of "dead Democrats" as
they call us, that the world ever
saw. We will elect our ticket this
fall; every man on it. Let us look
down over our ticket:
For Treasurer, Jno. Notestone; ;
genial, clever John. Where could
we have gotten better candidate,
or where is better public servant ?
There isn't person in the county
that has had any dealings with
him, that he has not accommodate
ed in some way. He has host of
friends, and can 60 through this
county and call almost every man
by name that he meets, and every
body is,his friend, and he is friend
to everybody. His opponent is Mr..
Woodwork, of Ward Township.
We are not acquainted with the
gentleman, and never heard of
him until he was sprung by the
Republicans against Mr.. Notestone.
We have inquired around some
about the young fellow but have
been unable to find out much about
him as he has been in this county
but few years. He is a single
man, and has been working at the
Jobs Coal Mines. Mr.. Notestone
will be elected by good round
majority.
For Commissioner, a. A. Juniper.
Mr.. juniper has served the people
of Hooking County one term as
commissioner, and q better COM
missioner this county never had.
He has saved hundreds of dollars
for the taxpayers. Hundreds of
exorbitaDt bills are pouring in to
the commissioners every month,
that if not looked into and exam
ined according to law and cut
down in the bounds of reason, this
county would go bankrupt in few
years time. Who has been a party
to the saving of this vast amount
of money in the past two years
Why, honest tjudicious, ,,careful Alex
Juniper. He has never faltered
in his duty to his public trust and
always liberal in the hounds of the
law. The spendthrift and knave
may style man who is close with
the public money as "stingy," but
we are all most thankfully glad
when we come to pay our tax, to
have public officers that are close
with our money. Mr.. Juniper has
been tried and is not found want
ing. He has honestly earned the
support of the people of
this county for another term as
their servant. He will be elected
by big majority. Vote to retain
an officer in a responsible public
trust, who has been. tried and is
known to be efficient, rather than
risk the incoming Of a new man.
Jno. M. Buchanan who is at
present member of the board of
Infirmary Directors is candidate
for his second term. He has made
an excellent officer, and everybody
seems to be ready to vote for him
Mr.. Buchanan will be elected easy,
as his opposition don't care for the
place, and isn't making any effort.
The Republican Convention placed
Mr.. Spurrier on the ticket without
his consent, and he will spend no
time in hopeless race. Mr.. Blu.
chanan's kindness to the unfortun-
ates who come under his care at
the Infirmary, has made him
whole county of friends, and every
body wishes him retained.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1894-10-17
THEY CROW NOW.
But it Will be Our Turn After the
Election.

But 1t VIII be Our Turn After tht
Election.
1t is not necessary to go up in the
Republican headquarters to hear a
great deal of growing about what
tive" did last fall and what "we'
are going to do this fall. 1t can be
heard on the streets from a few
Republican howlers that there was
a land slide their way last fall and
there will be more of q land slide
this fall. Now what caused the
little, puny victory for the Repub-
iican candidates in this county last
fall? The cause was that we had
scored victory after victory in this
county so long that it seemed that
all it was necessary for Democrat
to do was to secure the nomination
and the election was a sure thing
without any exertion. We got stu
pid and careless, and even our can
didates felt so sure of election that
they Jagged in their efforts, and,
alas, the Republicans caught us
mapping and stole the plumb. Then,
gee-whiz! how they did crow; and
we went around kicking ourselves
for our stupidity.
Another election came on in Lo-
gan last spring. We had had it
flung in our faces all winter about
how gloriousiy we were skinned
the fall before and it began to make
us mad, and we walked p,and then
who got skinned? Mercy! a town
that they had always claimed to be
Republican by 100, went 224 Demo-
cratic. We didn't crow, much. 1t
was no more than we expected.
Any boy that gets real good
thrashing for running off from
school isn't going to run off any
more, and we knew that the Demo-
Gratis that had run off after a soap
bubble or neglected to do their
duty,and were roasted and laughed
also gloriously, that they would get
their feathers ruffled up and go af.
ter their silly opposition hog up;
and they did, and did it beautifully.
Now, listen, Brother Democrats; if
you have any little prejudice stick
ing in your craw against your par
fy, just stop and think q moment
who put it there. Who told you
thatyour party was not doing the
right thing? Why, some nosey
Republican, of course. And you
probably listened to his flowery
talk and fell into his snare, and
voted his way last fall. Then he
laughed at you for being such
fool, and told it around that you
We're as soft as putty, he had mash
ed your head with his little talk,
and had you going his way,and then
ne would come in to Logan and
crow What HE had done. Now,
don't let this occur in this county
this fall. Don't be foolish, what
we want to do is to vote our ticket,
and vote it straight. We don't
need to ask any Republicans to vote
our way. All we got to do is to
vote our own ticket and our full
majority will ring out with her 700.
Now, you Democratic Brothers who
live In the country, just cite your
eelyes to Logan, and ponder over
how nicely we skinned the boast
ers At our spring election. We got
tired OF their everlasting throwing
~ into our teeth that the Demo-
Gratis were all dead, and so we
thought we would show them that
there We're more live Democrats
yef than they bad bargained for,

Hands Off Hawaii.

Naturally enough, the English
journals favor the cause OF the eX-
Queen, and the London Globe rises
to remark that "sOme Americans
would like to adopt course that
would lead to the annexation of
the islands; but others beside the
Hawaiians and the American par
ties will have something to say to
that solution Of the question"
English journals that take their
cues as to matters American from
such authorities as the New York
Herald and Times, ignoring the
real sentiments of the people,
will naturally fall into the
error Of printing this sort
of balder dash. When it comes to
the final settlement Of the question
of annexation, there will be but
two interests to consult,and any ma
ton that interferes, particularly
England, will find itself exposed tC
the beak rnd talOnS of very en-
thusiastic American Eagle, which
feels quite competent to look after
the welfare of it's weaker neighbor'
and will not tolerate foreign inter
ference. But the English govern
ment recognizes the wisdom o
needing our advice, "hands off," /
