Duchess of York, Queen Consort of
George Vas we shall some day read.
The Princess May is an English Prin-
cess. and as such is dearer to the heart
of Victoria than any other relative by
marriage has ever been, for Her Mai
esty has always been disposed to look
critically upon the conduct of the rela-
tives- in-law that have come TO Wind
sor and Sandrington TO live.
ANOTHER VICTORIA.
May threatens TO be another Queen
Victoria. She is like the Queen in ev-
cry respect. Her mother is Victoria's
own cousin. May might be Victoria's
daughter, and is more like Ler than any
CT her own children.
The reign of Queen May-which may
begin suddenly, just as the young Kais-
erin of Germany was thrust upon the
throne when she supposed she must
wait for two generations before her
turn at ruling came-will be i Victoria
reign.
This young lady will undoubtedly re-
produce Victoria's early reign Every.
body who lived in the fifties remembers
what that was. The family was all
one heard. Victoria devoted herself "a
the raising of her children; and it was
fashionable TO walk in the streets al

A lady riding on railroad train was
quite annoyed by the fixed stare of a
long. lank, leathery-looking woman sit

piercing black eyes and she kept them
fixed on the lady's face.
Finally the train stopped at a little
station and the keen-eyed woman lean

THE CUBAN SITUATION.

After many days, the House has pass
ed, by an overwhelming vote, the Cuban
resolutions reported by the conference
committee.
IT is known that the President has
cherished sympathy for the Cuban
cause, and the administration has given
close attention that no opportunity be
lost to do everything that could be done
justly and under diplomatic rules and
international law, to bring the struggle
to close, and there is little doubt that
such a course will continue to be follow
ed. 1t is doubtful if this action of the
House in itself, will furnish further OPP
portunity any more than similar action
aided President Grant during the ten
years Revolution.
Meanwhile the insurgents cause seems
to be gaining rather than losing ground.
General Weyler has failed ANONYMOUSLY
to bring about the results that he SO
bombasticly promised.
The Cubans have continued their sort
of warfare with even greater success
than ag gainst General Campos, and they
have secured at least some reinforce
ments in the line they so much needed,
arms and ammunition. They have practi'
cally secured and held possession Of
nine tenths of the actual area Of the is
land. The outlook for Cuban victory is
better than ever before, and Rll of it has
been deservingly earned.

MORE GOOD NEWS.

The great Democratic gains in Ohio on
Monday were supplemented by still
larger Democratic gains in the state of
Michigan.
At Saginaw a most brilliant Demo.

Democratic mayor and city ticket was
elected by ] 500 majority.
At Niles the most fiercely-contested
election ever held took place, but the
Democrats triumphed with signal major.

The Democrats carried the city of
Holland with a whoop. The Republi-
can majority is 400, but the Democrats
carried their ticket by safe majorities on
a vote 300 larger than ever polled be-
fore.
AT Adrian, there was a great Republi.
can slump, the Democrats electing their
mayor and all the important offices.
There was a great change in public
sentiment at Battle Creek. The Demo.
Gratis elected their mayor where
last year the Republican mayor was
elected by 800.
Petoskey follows up the list by great
Democratic victory, electing their mayor
and council, and getting all the city pat

The Democrats scored the greatest ri

WHY NOT TELL THE TRUTH

CAT no city in Ohio, where the contest
was waged on strict party lines, was
there any letting down in the Republi-
can majorities that have characterized
the elections in the past two or three
years. Indeed, those majorities were, in
many instances, increased. The Repub-
licans won notable victories in such
places as Newark, where they made a
clean sweep of the city and township;
Canton, where they elected their entire
ticket, gaining control of the council
and board of education.-Cleveland
Leader.
In politics, the Leader could not be
fair and honest, if it wanted to. 1t
prints only that sort of news which
tickles Republicans. When the truth
does not fit, it is cast aside. How the
Republicans have gained control of the
Canton city council, where Republican
majority of two has been wiped out al
together, and a Democratic mayor has
the casting vote in the organization of
the council, we fail to see But it would
not do to let the Republicans of Cleve-
land know that the Democrats had res
cued the city council from the Republi.
cans in McKinley's own town. So the
truth was cast aside.

A REPUBLICAN, PAPER MISIN-
FORMED US.

COMMENTING on the eelection results the
Canton News-Democrat says: "It is no
small thing to cut down the usual Re-
publican majority at Alliance to sub
stantially nothing" To use phrase
of the day, "Come Off" Wipe the dust
off your glasses and look at the returns.
Last fall the plurality for Bushnell in
Alliance was $40. Last Monday there
were six Republicans elected on the city
ticket. With smaller vote than last
fall, their average plurality was 5O6.-Al,
lance Review.
Our information that the usual zoe
Republican majorities in Alliance were
cut down to about 100 was taken from
the Pittsburg Dispatch, Republican
paper. 1t is not the policy of the News
Democrat to misrepresent the Republi-
can majority in Alliance or in any other
city. We are running newspaper, and
not an organ.

THE RISE AND FALL OF THE Pop
ULIST PARTY.

The most serious drawback that the
Democrats have had to contend with
for the past two or three years in this
city and county was the Populist vote.
When the depression came on, they
managed to get foothold in this coun-
ty. Such men as Coxey, Carl Brown
and 9. w. Tate, the latter two of which
could not successfully manage small
blacksmith shop or peanut stand,
we're brought here to discuss the finan.
cial question.
What they did not know about finance
and the financial management Of this
great nation was not worth knowing
The greatest minds of this and every
other nation have been devoted to solv-
ing the perplexing and knotty questions
of national financial management. Many
have made it the study of their lives
But these men, unlettered and untutor
ed, would solve the most vexatious prob
lens therein, with readiness, ease and
glibness, that sstounded one.
The unthinkiug multitude fell an easy
prey to these agitators. No matter how
peacefully and contentedly man may
have lived in this country year after
year, these chronic grumblers would find
a grievance for him, and prove it by
their own peculiar tracts and arguments.
They scattered an immense amount of
Populistic literature throughout the
county that was marvel and revela-
ton to the uninitiated. In it, men were
vilhfed who deserved naught but praise,
Men were praised who merited only con-
tempt. Speeches and writings we're dis
torted, misinterpreted and misrepresent
ed to deceive the people. But as Lin
coin said, "you can't fool all the people
all the time" 1t is when those who
were hoodwinked see how third parties
and especially the Greenback and Popu
list parties, are officered by conscience
less agitators and political mountebank
that they begin to leave it by the hun
dreds. Such is the condition of tn,
Populist party today in this county
and it has simply been ground to pow
der by public opinion at the ballot box
To show you how such parties rise anc
fall we herewith append the vote of tn
old Greenback party as compared to tina
of the Populist party. The panic in TIN
seventies brought about the Greenbacl
party just as the recent business depress
ion brought about the Populist party
Following is the vote in Stark county o
the Greenback and Populist parties:

OUR INCREASING EXPORTS.

There is marked increase in the ex-
ports of American manufacturersin in spite
of all the twaddle in the Republican
newspapers about the Wilson tariff law,
which is not yet two years old. The ex-
ports of this class of merchandise from
the United States in February, 1895,
were Sl2, ,221 ,S95 out OF total exports of
S54, ,999, ,944, while the manufacturing ex-
ports of February, 1896, were $l7, ,265, ,l64
out of total exports Of $40, 1888, S48. The
exports of eight months ending with
1895 were Sll6,S2s, 1893, in manufactured
articles out of gross exports of $685., ,340,-
$40. The corresponding figures for 1896
were $l44 ,067 1886 for manufacturers, out
of total of $500, ,2S7 ,053. The percen-

WHERE BEST KNOWN IT'S LEAST
WANTED.

The decline OF Populism in Massillon,
the home of Coxey, is worthy of more
than passing comment.
1t has been annihilated-has gone
like shadow.
Only 43 votes were cast for the Popu'
list candidate for Mayor in Massillon
this spring : scarcely more. than the i'm
mediate workers in the various enter
prises controlled by Coxey in that place
These figures tell their own story--the
fanciful and often fanatical theories ol
Popilism are discarded and disowned in
in the place of their creation.
Where was the best opportunity to
study them, there have they first fallen
into deepest disgrace.
And the movement in this direction IL
spreading as fast, aye, faster, than it'
opposite rose.
There is only, can only be, one party
Of the people, and that's the Democrat

COMPULSORY VOTING.

General Wylie, of Wooster, made de-
termined fight to get bill through the
legislature which compelled electors to
vote at any municipal, county, state or
congressional election unless prevented
by sickness, death in the family or other
unavoidable casualty under penalty Of
SO to 500 fine. General Wylie takes
the patriotic ground that the state had
the right to demand this just and reason
able service from her sons just as much
as she had the right TO demand their
services and lives in time of war. He
believes that the dangers threatening the
country are more largely due to
neglected duties of citizenship than to
any other cause. Though Wylie's bill has
been defeated bill of this kind should
in the near future, become law. 1t
would sound the death knell to the bood-
lers who sell themselves to remain away
from the polls. similar law was
passed in Missouri and it works salts
factorily. In that state the fines are
paid into the school treasury. The first
year the fines we're enormous for the
boodlers believed that the law was only
dead letter on the statute books, and
they paid no attention to it. But when
prosecuting attorneys began to enforce
it they reported at the polls just the
same as they reported at the court house
tor jury duty. Another good feature
about such law is that it would do
away with men, teams and committees
around the polls on election day.
