The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1895-08-22

There is no question of the popularity
within republican circles of the proposi.
tion that President Cleveland should an
point General Harrison to the supreme
bench. Those republicans who want to
get the Indiana statesman out of the wav
are particularly gratifled over the idea.
But President Cleveland will have n few
notions of his own on this subject. He
VIII probably leave the republicans TO
light their own battles and, at the proper
time, send in the name of some CONNIE.
tent New York democrat. And our guess
Is that Senator Hill will not be found in
opposition this time.

Gov. Morton, it is now settled, will be
formally named for the presidency by the
state republican. convention of New York,
which assemblies September H. There
has been quite change in the relative
positions of Harrison and Morton since
the former snubbed the latter by accept
ing Whitelaw Reid as running mate in
the last presidential campaign. Since
then Mr.. Morton has risen steadily in
public esteem, being now governor of the
pivotal state in presidential elections and
presidential possibility that casts long
shadow over the little Indiana statesman.
The stone that was rejected by the build
ers bids fair to become the head of the
corner

Paris Decides for Knickerbockers


Inasmuch as Paris sets the pace for us
in fashionable matters, it is interesting
to learn from the reliable Paris corres-
pondent of the New York Tribune, that
the bicycle craze in Paris is something
prodigious. No class Sof society, from
cabinet ministers and diplomats down,
seems to be free from the all-pervading
epidemic And now we come to the i'm
portant point. What kind of clothes, in
the opinion of fashionable Pairs, Tmust
women who ride the wheel wearY The
correspondent says on this point;
The word millinery would obviously be
inappropriate, since here in Paris, at any
rate the skirt has been almost entirely
abandoned by "veloce women, as they
are called, ladies of the great world, as
well as those who belong to another
sphere, having alike adopted the knicker-
bockers.
Not only are women thus arrayed to be
seen in the restaurants and cafes in the
Avenue de la Grande Armee, where, in
deed, woman clad in the ordinary hab-
ilaments of her sex is looked upon as
rarity, but they are likewise to be met
with elsewhere in the metropolis, at res
taurants, in shops, and walking along the
boulevards and streets, without their ap-
pearance creating any astonishment or
remark. Certain 1t is that the men
neither object to nor discountenance the
bifurcated garb for women, and 1t would
seem as If the new fashion had come to
stay. All of the big stores, such as the
Louvre, the Bon Marche and the Prin-
temps, have organized cycling dress de-
partments; every public establishment,
even to the Hotel de Vile, the Palnis de
Justice and the Chamber of Deputies, has
cloak rooms arranged for the checking
and storage OF wheels each newspaper
has its cycling editor, and suppose that
when the dramatic season reopens, we
shall find the managers arranging TO store
the wheels of those of their patrons who
prefer using that method of conveyance
to get to the theatre instead of a dirty,
stuffy and painfully slow facre
This probably settles 1t. What Paris
does we will do And the only reason we
have heard against such innovations is
the argument based on precedent and
custom. But in view of the fact that
last Sunday there were some five or six
thousand women at one seaside resort on
the Jersey coast attired for an ocean bath
in abbreviated skirts, we hardly see the
force Of the argument based on custom.

1t would be hard to find more accept
able man to fill the vacancy on the circuit
bench, caused by the resignation of Judge
Jenner, than Judge A. A. Thayer, of
Canton. He is in every way qualified for
the position, being a close student, and
an able lawyer. The opinion of Judge
Thayer is much sought after by members
of the bar, and If he can be induced to
accept the nomination he would have the
almost unanimous support of the legal
fraternity.

A Republican stock Argument.

"Ex-Lieutenant Governor Lyon says,
in the Newark American: During Har-
risons term 1896, 600, 900 OF the debt was
paid, while under Cleveland not month
has passed that has not increased the debt,
and during the half of his term the in
crease In the bonded interest bearing debt
has reached the fearful sum of $3.50, 900,
fiscal year, shows shortage of over 50,
900, 900. The promise of this free trade
law is like the promises of the party that
enacted 1t, never tC be redeemed.
This kind of talk is the present stock In
trade of the republican press. If Mr..
Cleveland's administration had rough
shedding for the first two or three years, II
was all the result of the panic. A hnan.
cial storm had gathered before Harrison
got out of office Gold was being export.

to S102, 900, 000-within SO, 900, 900 of the
danger line Secretary Foster was pre-.
pared to issue bonds for loan, but finally
succeeded in tiding over the emergency foI
the few weeks which the administration
had TO last. AS he departed from Office,
he wrote his celebrated fool letter calling
attention to the dangerous condition OF
the gold reserve. This was the last straw
and Mr.. Cleveland had scarcely been in.

Sheriff Doll would do well to spend a
little time trying to capture some of the
prisoners who have escaped from the
county jail, instead of doing so much
political work. The general run of the
people imagine the sheriff is elected to
keep people in jail, instead of allowing
them to escape. Some people are also un-
kind enough to say the turnkey should
not play cards with desperate criminals,
and thus allow them to break out of iail,

Golf has become q recognized American
sport. There is the United States Golf
Association, and 1t was to be expected
that the practical manual of the game
would follow. Mr.. James u. Lee
has written It, and he calls
his tight little book "Golf in
America" One chapter is devoted
to the origin and history of the game and
the second chapter takes up its introduc-
tion in America with an account OF the
leading clubs and the national associa-
tion. Then comes the technique OF the
game, methods of play, the etiquette
of the game, rules, glossary OF
terms, etc. The book seems to
be guide for players, and source OF in
formation for those who wish to have a
general idea OF the game in order to be
able TO understand references to IL and
