The studied silence of Governor McKin-
ley upon the senatorial question Is SUBJ
ject of much comment among politicians
at the capital, says n Columbus special.
Now that the Little Napoleon has in
dulged in the hollow mookery of declar
ing pleasure at the nomination Of General
Bushnell, why does he not further hum
BILE himself by indorsing Foraker for the
senator Is the second bitter pill too nau-
seating for his already sickened stomach2 ?
These questions and many more are being
asked by those watching the attitude of
the governor in the light of his recent
Waterloo.
The fact stands out in bold relief that
never, by act or word, has Governor Nc
Kinely indicated the slightest favor for
the senatorial candidacy of ex. x.Governor
Foraker. OF coure this was not surpris-
ing when II was apparent the governor
desired the honor himeslf, and was en-
deavoring to regulate the Legislative nomi-
ations accordingly. Neither did II excite
wonder when scheme was disclosed
whereby IL was intended to bestow the
senatorial toga upon the administration

vention, this being conceived after Nc
Kinley had been frightened out Of IL so
far as being candidate himself. 1t was
plainly plan of the administration man.

have been left Foraker. knowledge of
the true situation is what spurred Fora
ker into making such a wonderful fight.
Now, however, that Mckinley has lost at
his own game, and has seen fit to slobber
over one of the chief benefciaries, why
does he not do likewise with the otherP If
the victory of General Bushnell is pleas
ing to Governor Mckinley, why should
not the far greater triumph of ex-Gover-
nor Foraker be much more gratifying to
the same Governor Mckinley.
All the laws of logic teach that If the
Little Napoleon's generous and forgiving
heart throbs with pleasure at the recep-
ton of swift kick in the posterior por-
tion of his trousers he should make the
welkin ring with joyous shouts when
given another and much more vigorous
kick in the same locality. Why this sol
emn silence in reference to the second
kickS Can 1t be that the administration
has adopted the plan, favored immedi
ately after the convention, to elect the
state ticket for the benefit of McKinley's |
presidential aspiration and kill off Fora |
ker by losing the legislatures Even then
it would seem advisable for the governor
to go little farther in the farce and in
dorse Foraker. Perhaps, however, he de-
sires to demonstrate by his silence his dis |
approval of Foraker's senatorial candi- |
dacy.
Landlord j. A. Simonds of the Hurford |
house, has taken up his summer residence |
In his cottage at Meyers lake. He is
now hard at work building new sailboat. |
The craft will be constructed on the |
pattern and will be about |
fifteen feet long. The frame work is now |
and the two floats will be
covered with tin and made air tight. The |
new outfit will be ready to launch on
Myers lake in a few weeks.

Secretary Paul Field Of the waterworks |
has quite curiosity in his office. 1t Is an |
inch pipe taken out of West Tnscarawas
street, near the street car barns. The |
piece of pipe resembles wood more than |
1t does iron, as in some places 1t Is entirely |
eaten through. The pipe had only been |
down about two years. and the trouble |
was caused by electricity. The matter is |
remedied by attaching the grounded |
wires to the pipe.

"The other day" said a well known |
Canton man" ~ saw something that was
very displeasing to me and that distinctly |
showed the un-Americanism, the CASTE |
which exists in our society today. 1t was
a very warm day and several women, who
were out riding, stopped with their driver
in fr mt of a confectionery, from which
one of the ladies ordered ice cream soda,
but only enough glasses for the ladies.
They received it in the buggy Hnd there
all the while they ate 1t, sat the poor dri-
yer on the seat with one of them, looking
like cowed rooster, like one which has
always been under cow All this time
the ladies were speaking of the fine soda
and how they enjoyed it. 1t seemed to
me as though they were only trying to
make this poor fellow, who perhaps, Is
just as upright, honest and deserving and
just as good in the sight of the Almighty
feel his insignificance as compared to
themselves. Why,i had been that fellow
could not nave stood it. / would have
ordered some for myself, but l suppose he
did not dare to. 1t would not have been
one hundredth as bad IL those ladies had
gone inside and taken their soda"

The Massillon Independent says very
peculiar accident occurred to one of the brick
layers employed at the state hospital
grounds several days ago. The man was
standingon one of the gables stretching a
line when the cord broke, causing his body
to fall backwards and off Of the roof. In
falling he turned a somersault and landed
on his feet on a scaffold six feet below.

Uriah Matthews went into the cold
storage room of VIM. Suttle of Massillon,
wherein a large amount Of ice Is always
kept, after some lard. 1t was very dark in
the place, and his mission took him to the
coldest and darkest corner. While he was
thus engaged, Mr.. Suttle came along, and
noticing that the door was OPEN rebuked
himselfm for his carelessness and closed
the door. Mr.. Matthews, shivering in the
gloomy place. observed the shutting off
the ray of light with great deal of appre-
hension, but when he tried the door and
found that 1t was locked he grew terrified,
He pictured to himself the horrors of a
