midnight, Monday, when the time came
for the veto message Of the governor
on the bill removing the state house
custodian and supplanting him with a
republican.
The bill was received by the govern
or at l1:55 Thursday night, and his
veto must have been received Mon
day night, before midnight, else the
act would become law without his
signature
An intimation reached the members
Monday that he would wait until the
last minute, so that some or them
schemed to defeat him at his own game
by waylaying Private Secretary King
as he was bearing the message and
preventing him from delivering it
until the time was up. The speaker
was not let IN, and the hold-up was to
be unofficial
When the time came for the private
secretary to appear he was captured as
he was about to leave the elevator on
the second floor, and with the elevator
packed. they kept him riding up and
down for some minutes
Finally some friend pricd the dooi
open and the secretary, who. with Gus.

ing angrilS for help, pushed his way
out
Mr. King burst for the first door
but pack of members held it firmly,
and he shouted and kicked, but 10 nc

held firmly. But his calls here coulC

large number Of ladies, was standing
on desks and chairs. Finally some on'
helped the secretary to push the doc
open and he tried 10 read, but the how
of cries drowned his voice.
The struggle had continued until
was about l2 o'clock, and the speaker
who had been rapping for order will

in order that he might declare tn

sent word TO Engineer Cain, and h
stopped the clock from the electric ap

1t was six minutes of 19, one minut
being left TO the secretary, but hi
watch and that of numerous other
showed midnight. There was no hel
for the secretary, however, FOR h
could not be heard, and the time 70
the adjournment came without hi
having accomplished the veto.
The house records contain no refer

Is There q DiHerenceI

On March the democrats held a pri-
mary election and the voters placed in
nomination their choice of candidates for
the different city and township officers.
Not scratched or defaced ticket was
handed to voter, or man challenged
in any of the wards or voting places.
Neither Doodle, beer nor bosses were in
evidence. As result not an unclean,
incompetent or incapable nominee was
chosen. Every man is fit for the place
for which he was selected.
On March Is the republicans ostensi-
bly, held a primary election. The ring,
under the management of the suave Ju-
Illus Whiting, fixed the slate. This slate
went through. The preferences Of the
people were completely thwarted. If
the person seeking to vote wore a slate
button or a Grant complexion his vote
was received without question. But
voters who had minds of their own were
rebufied and insulted. Think of a ward
heeler, paid few dollars by the ring,
challenging the vote of man like James
Fife, who has been an honest republican
voter for more years than this heeler has
lived. Imagine man of this Loodle type
calling in question the honesty Of pur-
pose or the political views of Rev. J. n.
Field. What has happened that The re.
publican leaders of this city are permit
ted to resort to such methods and prac-
tice such outrages? Does not this crowd
of booders know that the majority of
republicans of Canton are able to make
their own choice of candidates for the
various city offices? Will the voters of
Canton permit united and corrupt few
to dictate the policy and deal out the
offices for the rank and file of the party?
If so when will we begin to spell Canton
with big c, and make our great Canton

CantonIs PubIic Debt.


A correspondent calls the attention OF
the Pittsburg Times to the fact that in
a compilation issued by some leading
New York financiers which shows the
public debt and tax rate of forty cities
of the United States that Pittsburg
stands near the top. On which the
Times comments.
The sheet from which the figures are taken
is a statement issued by leading New York
finanCiers, giving the financial condition OF
over 9 600 municipalities. In the list of A
cities selected from it by our correspondent in
the matter of bonded debt to assessed value Pitts
burg stands fourth, Detroit, Philadelphia and
Worcester, Mass, alone having a lower per-
centage, while in all three the tax rate is
higher than in Pit.sburg. Among the large
cities which our correspondents figures show
to be worse OIL, both in the percentage of their
debt to assessed value and in the tax rate, are
Milwaukee, Boston, Minneapolis Buffalo, AL
bany, New York Cleveland, ST. Louis, Chi
cagO, Rochester, st. Paul, Washington, Brook,
lyn, New Orleans, Baltimore, Omaha, Cincin.
natl, Charleston, $. c., Jersey City and Eliza
beth, n. j. The range in percentage of bond.
ed debt to assessed value is from l.66 per cent.
to 22. ~ per cent, Pittsburgh's 3.l6 per cent.
The tax rate in the list runs as high as 47,6
mills.
On the 18th of March, 1893, Canton's
debt amounted to SS05, ,432.64, while the
assessed valuation of property for the
year 1894 ran to $ll, ,l6l ,760, so that our
per cent of debt to valuation Of taxable
property is a shade less than n.
Ten years back, in 1894, the total val
uation for Canton was $6,99S, 100 while
the indebtedness for the same year was
S274, ,75l, the per cent of Indebtedness
to valuation being slightly less than A..
so that In ten years our debts have
grown much more rapidly than the city,
in 1884 it being about 81 to the hundred
of valuation while now it is 7 IA.
This showing puts Canton in the posi-
ton Of not being able to crow very much.
Our debt has climbed to a very respect
able figure. There is one way in which
it can be reduced nearly one-half, and
that is for the city to build her own gas
works and let the longtime bonds be
iquidated from the earnings. Within a
reasonably short time the city will then
have an asset worth probably quarter
of million dollars lowing to the size and
completeness of the works,) which will
not have cost taxpayers cent. They will
not only thus acquire a very valuable
property but the people will get illumi-
mating and cooking gas at not over
seventy-fve cents per thousand which
will bring it into general use as cook
ing fuel and even heater for open fire
places in chambers. When the works
are paid for the price would be lower.
The very thought of such luxury
raises very pleasant feelings Of satisfac-
ton. 1t would touch every mans
pocket book, tighten every housewives
labor, and add materially to the comforts
of life.
Hasten the day!

BOOK NOTICES.
GARDENING.


No periodical in this country deserves higher
praise than Gardening" edited by VIM. Fall
coner. We do not say that the element of
bulk enters in an unusual way into the publi-
cation for it is not unusually large; nor the
element of cost, for the publishers do not go
beyond reasonable limit in the matter of ex-
pense. The great value of the publication con-
sists in these points.
/. II is edited by a scientific gardener,
trained in England, at Kew, and at Harvard
in this country, who is an attractive and pro-
life writer on every phase of gardening ex-
perienoe, and who rigidly excludes the mis-
leading amateurs who have been thebane here
tofore Of the gardening press. These writers
are not excluded because they are amateurs,
but because they have nothing instructive to
say.
2. 1t is printed on fine paper and bea ltifully
illustrated with photographs from life by the
half tone process, that are an inspiration to
any lover of nature,
3. Questions embracing all kinds of Difficult.
ties with which the amateur finds himself plung.
ed are answered fully and accurately, either by
Mr.. Falc0ner or by experts.

JAMES A. RICE is a young man with
the best part of his life before him. He
can't afford to make mistakes or misuse
the privileges of the office he seeks. A
few years in the Office of mayor of our
city is to him a small thing compared
with the next twenty years of his busi-
ness life. In the past he has proved
himself most careful and competent
business man. There is no one who
ever had business dealings with him
directly or indirectly who does not say
this of him. Not one claims that he was
ever neglectful or incompetent. He is
ambitious, honest, and very indus
trious. People should be slow to credit
any disparaging rumors about him. In
vestigation will trace them all to politi-
cal trickery. He is honest. BE honest
njudging him.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1895-03-21

The process proved very simple one.
The carbide is a by-product of certain
electrical furnace processes. 1t sput in
a jar. water is poured on it, and the gas
is evolved. The cost is said to be five
cents thousand cubic feet, and burner
consuming foot an hour, and giving
flame of the usual size, made light
three times as bright as an ordinary in
candenscent electric light.
If this last advance in the art of illumi-
nation proves to be all that is. claimed
for it the resulting benefits to fuel-ridden
humanity will simply be prodigious.
Then they exhibited an apparatus for
photographing the human voice! The
spectator was instructed to sing into an
orifce and attune his cry to fork which
sounded the bass G. Inside the contriv-
ance were resonance tubes set for G and
for seven overtones, or harmonies. Be-
hind each of these was drum, which
vibrates for the tone or harmonic.
These connected, by rubber tubes, with
little jets OF gas, so that the latter
jumped up and down when the drums
vibrated. The lights were photographed
by camera which swung quickly past
them, the resulting records being
in the form of wavy lines.
The object of the apparatus is to ascer-
tain what proportion of overtones is de-
sirable in a singing voice. Specialists
have never been able to tell throat be-
longing to a good singer from any other.
Several famous singers have had their
voices photographed with the new ap-
paratus, and these will be compared with
ordinary and unmusical voices.
The difference in voices once deter
mined in this way, the different throat
structures may be better studied, and we
may yet have specialists advertising to
furnish ambitious young women with
first-class operate voices by simple alter
ations in the structure of their throats.
