THE PRESIDENT CAN NO LONGER
BULL DOZE THE HOUSE.
From the Chicago Times tDem.)


1t is no longer just to accuse the pres.
ent House of Representatives of inca.
pacity. By its action in side-tracking
the Cleveland Carlisle.Springer currency
bill that body has shown that it has in
telligence enough to recognize an evil
measure and determination enough to
smash one when seen.
Doubtless there will be an effort made
to force another currency bill through
Congress before adjournment. There is
little hope that such an attempt can sue
ceed. 1t must be evident to all observ-
ers that the President and his party are
hopelessly at odds upon the money
question. He has shown that rather
than accept the doctrine of bi.metallism
he will even revive the rag money the
wildcat money of ante.war times. The
bi-metallsts in the House, among whom
we believe a majority of the Democrats
are enrolled, have demonstrated that
they are not to be bribed to desert hard
money by the mere profier of more
money.
The defeated bill was the administra.
ton bill, supported by administration
champions, and its defeat can only be
constructed as defeat of the admins.
tration. 1t is of importance, however,
as aiIording some hint of the sort of bill
President Cleveland will urge upon the
next Congress, which, being Republican,
may be relied upon to legislate to the
satisfaction of Wall street.
1t is reasonably certain that if any
currency law goes into effect under this
administration it will be q law main.

Nicholas Geibel, of Newman's Creek, small
settlement west of Massillon, was the victim
of frightful misfortune Saturday night. He
started out to look for a vacant house at West
Brookfeld but was blinded by the snow and
lost his way. He finally arrived at West
Brookfield and sought the residence of some
relatives. He was numb with cold and could
have gone but little farther.
Instead of taking him into cool room his
relatives put him in warm room. Here he
remained all night, but instead of growing
more comfortable before the cheerful fire place,
he suffered the most excruciatng pain, and
finally on Sunday morning 1t became unbear-
able and DIR. Gardner, Of West Brookfeld, was
summoned. He examined the man and found
that both hands and ears and several toes had
been frozen. One hand will certainly have to
be amputated, while the other may yet be

sary to remove the ears and toes. Had he
been taken into a cold room when he first ar
rived at West Brookfeld, the injuries might
have been less serious. Geibel is married
man and has five children.

OHIO REPUBLIcAN FRACTIONAL
FIGHT,

Political plots are plenty and still are
thickening in the Republican party of
Ohio. There appears no real agitation
on the surface of affairs, but under the
surface the very devil of discord is loose.
The administration faction, which is
headed by Mckinley, is working every
thing to secure n solid delegation for
Mckinley to the National Republican
Convention of 1896.
Neither is the coming Legislature neg
lected, and the friends of Mckinley and
the opposition, evidently led by Fora
ker, are already at work in every Repub.
lican county fixing up legislative candi.
dates.
The aim of Mckinley is to secure the
legislature, so that he can jump into the
Senate in Brice's chair, in case the out.
look for the Presidency seems out of
reach, when the legislature meets, in the
January of 1896. A Columbus special
to the Cleveland Plain Dealer Of today
says:
"What is true of the plans on the part
of the administrationists to control the
delegations in the State convention and
| the legislature from Stark and other
counties in the judicial circuit repre-
| sented by MIR. Alread's appointment in
behalf of the administration and the Bel
| mont county members for the benefit of
| ex-Gov. Foraker no doubt applies to
many of the counties of the State where
| the deals and combinations have been
kept under cover. Within the last few
days several of the anti-administration
/ candidates have visited the capitol,
whose presence in the city was
not generally known. This has
started the gossips concerning the posi-.
BILE movements with regard to agreeing
on q candidate, whom the ants shall
support for the gubernatorial nomina-
| ton. 1t is now pretty generally conced-
ed that Gen. J. Warren Kiefer, who was
supposed to be able to cope with the
Mckinley forces, has not developed suf-
| ficient strength to make his nomination
even probable. Several of the Foraker
managers in this city have no use for the
general, and insist upon taking up and
standing by Auditor Poe as their first
choice"
There is talk, right here in Canton,
that the new paper, to be called The Rec
ord, now in the throes of accouchement,
is in reality a Foraker.Poe project, and
it is the talk of the poker clubs that this
contest will even penetrate the caucuses,
in the selection of Lord Mayor for this
beautiful city.
In the meantime our Democratic
friends can afford to be calm. Things
will soon be working our way.

A DOPED HORSE.
DR.. Bowman Thinks It's Owner Gave
IL an Overdose to Prevent Heayes.

Tuesday afternoon John II. Dual, of No. 351
South Plum street, and Thomas Powell, Of this
city, agreed on horse trade. Their horses
were standing on the square and each con-
cluded to try the others horse by giving II q
short drive. When Powell had driven Dual's
horse but short distance it was taken violent.
ly sick and fell over and minute later the
animal was gasping for breath and groaning
piteously. 1t was unhitched and taken to
Blanchard & Bowman's where DIR. Bowman
did all in his power to relieve its suflerings.
He was Of the opinion that the horse would
die and stated to NEws-DEMocRAT reporter
at the time that he believed the horse had
been given an overdose of some kind Of
medicine to temporarily relieve heaves. He
found the animal to be suffering with heart
spasms so violent as to rupture some of the
small blood vessels and cause bleeding at the
mouth Later in the evening the animal was
no better and Mayor Cassidy ordered it shot.
When DIR. Bowman went to do this there was
noticeable improvement from the effects of
the medicine and the horse was not killed.

For nearly two years the Democratic
party has had full control of every de.
partment of the United States Toledo
Commercial.
The above is very far from the truth.
The Republican party is in control of the
supreme court and nearly all the Fed
eral courts Of the United States, and so
far as the finances are concerned, the
Republican party Is still in control of
the Chief Executive. His financial pol.
icy is not in accord in any respect with
the platform upon which he was elected,
and is in violation of all the principles
and traditions of the Democratic party
for 100 years. The statement, therefore,
that the Democratic party is in control
of all branches of the government is
vitality false.

What the Nose Is For--How Nature
Protects the Lungs-Keep Your
Mouth Shut--Some Timely


This is the season Of the year when wet feet,
sudden draughts, cold rooms, etc, give most
everybody colds In the head, so that the ex-
treact we give from well known author will
be seasonable.
Dr. MILESTONE in his interesting home talks
discoursing about the nose says; "A great
many grown up people, who should know bet
ter, resort TO breathing through the mouth
whenever the nose is stopped mp by colds in the
head or catarrh. Now the nose and the nasal
passages are made to give pure air to the lungs.
In natural breathing through the nose the
larger particles of dust, etc, stopped by the
larger hairs in the nose NEAR the openings;
what escapes is held by the smaller and finer
hair higher mp and what passes these is stuck
fast to the mucous membrane so efiectually
that the air finally reaching the lungs per-
fectly pure.
When any of my patients are suffering from
a severe cold in the head, stopping up the nasal
passages making IL almost impossibleto breathe
through the nose, l always recommend that
they obtain a jar of Pretzinger's Catarh Balm
and at once snuffit up through the nostrils thor
oughly and reliefwill follow almost immediate
ly and the breathing becomes natural. This un-
rivalled Balm acts directly upon the mucous
passages of the head and restores them to
their natural functions. If the cold in the
head is accompanied by sneezing, coughing
and dryness in the throat l cannot give a
better prescription than has already been
published in these columns--tbat is to get
thoroughly heated before going TO bed, take q
q hot drink, lemonade is the best, and use
Pretzingers CatarTh Balm as above, when
you wake upih the morning and find the cold
in the head gone, you will DO glad to thank
the old doctor for his prescription.
Miss Lizzie Wilson says i took very
severe cold in the head going through the wet
SLOW to prayer meeting. took DR.. Whet-
stones prescription and was we'll the next
morning. could taste the Balm way back in
my mouth.

from any druggist. Send two cent stamp to

DIFFERENCE IN VIEWS.

Let the Democrats propose the retire
ment of the legal-tender notes by a 2 per
cent long-term bond issue, which the
National banks can purchase and use to
deposit to secure circulation to its face
value, and they may rely on Republican
Support.-Chicago Evening Journal,
(Rep).
The total amount of legal-tender notes
outstanding is about 5OO,OOO,O 900. To
substitute 2 per cent bonds for this
would cost taxpayers 10000, 600 year.
That might be good thing for the
banks, but wherein would the people,
who pay the taxes, profit Chicago

LET EVERY FARMER READ AND
PONDER WELL.

The printed official statistics show that
on a million acres of land which changed
hands last year in siXty-two Ohio coun-
ties there was shrinkage of $4,000, 900
as compared with the values of the year
before, while the new mortgage indebt-
edness for the year was 65 per cent great
er than the old debt cancelled. In
America the governmental policy of
thirty years has built up monopoly and
sustained capitalistic combination at the
expense Of the actual producer on and
of the farm. This has forced farm
values steadily down until within the last
year ignorant and blundering folly in
shaping the financial and other policies
of the government has greatly exagger-
ated what was already bad enough. The
subject is not pleasant one, certainly,
and it ought to be avoided if that were
possible. But it is not. 1t will soon
force itself and its meaning even on the
most ignorant.-[New York World.
Now what remedy does the World pro-
pose? So far as we can discover it has
none. Undoubtedly the World knows
what the matter is, but don't care to
state it. The trouble is falling prices,
caused by the contraction of our metal
money, or money Of redemption. 1t
was the demonetization of one half OF
our money, which sent the prices sliding
down from double standard to a single
standard scale. Side by side with the
decline in the price of silver, as compar-
ed with gold, the decline in the prices of
agricultural staples has been going on,
and land has gone down in like proper.

SENATOR JONES of Arkansas, has now
come to the front with new currency
scheme, which he claims will please
enough Senator'S to pass the Senate. II
provides for the issue of $500, ,OOO, 900 of
2 l-2 per cent bonds, payable in gold,
mot coin. 1t provides for bank notes
to take the place of treasury notes, but
does not disturb our National banking
system, except to favor the banks. 1t
proposes to allow the National banks to
issue circulation up to the par value of
the bonds. The bill also provides for
the withdrawal from circulation of all
greenbacks, treasury notes and National
bank notes below $50, and the substitu.
ton of silver certificates in denomina-
tions Of less than $50, which are to be
payable in silver. The bill provides for
the free coinage of silver, the govern
ment retaining as seigniorage the differ
ence between the coinage value of the
bullion and its market value.

A BANKER ANSWERS DAVID a
WELLS.


The oldest banker of Missouri replies
to David A. Wells, in the Arena. Mr.

ciated in value, but that all other pro.
ducts had been cheapened by improved

cry.
The oldest banker of Missouri proves
that this is not the case Mr.. Wells
claims that the demonetization of silver
has not cheapened products, but that it
would be rascally to re-monetize silver
now, because it would make money
cheaper. On this point is where the
oldest banker of Missouri uses up Mr..
Wells very eflectually.
The oldest banker of Missouri
claims that if the characterization of sill
ger did not appreciate gold, the remon-
etization of silver cannot depreciate gold
and here is where the oldest banker gets
Mr.. Wells afoul.
The oldest banker of Missouri has had
about 10 years practical experience in
large business affairs and banking, and
he writes as a successful man of affairs,
from actual experience. lie says David A.
Wells is a thorough student of econom-
les and understands the tariff, but on
finance his reading has been limited and
he has read only indiferently one side
of the money question.
In fact the oldest banker of Missouri
intimates that David A. Wells only
knows enough about finance to confuse
the question.
