A NOVEL SCHEME.

Sold Dock Roots Representing Them
to Be CIematis Bulbs.
Guy Sandy had q. hearing before Justice
Sells yesterday on the charge of defraud-
ing r. A. Ross and Frank Johnson out of
the sum of SO. Sandy's scheme was a
novel one, which it is said he operated
with great success in Oregon and in
Idaho.
He represented himself as a peddler of
Dubious roots more particularly clematis,
and sold large quantities which, however,
turned out not to be clematis or any other
bulbs of value, but roots Of weeds, mostly
docks.
He deceived many in this way, and
nurserymen and gardeners who supposed
they were cultivating rare specimens of
flowers Of various kinds were grievously
disappointed when weeds appeared where
they expected choice flowers.
Sandy worked the complaining witnesses,
Ross and Johnson, to the tune of about
S25 for 125 bulbs. Some of the roots sold
as ciematis bulbs were produced in court
and pronounced to be dock roots.
Justice Sells rightly considered it was
an aggravated case and sent the enter
prising Sandy to jail for four months, and
ordered him to pay a fine of $50 and costs.

often suffer for a life time. their tor
lures being almost without remission.
The joints and muscles of such unfor-
tunates are in most cases shockingIy
contorted and drawn out of shape. To
afford them even temporary relief, the
ordinary remedies often prove utterly
useless. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
on the other hand, is avouched by per-
sons who have used it, to be a genuine
source of relief. 1t keeps the blood
cool by promoting regular habit of
body, and removes from it impurities
which, in the opinion of all rational pa
biologists. originate this agonizing
complaint, and its kindred malady, the
govt. Besides this, the Bitters remedy
disorders of the stomach, liver and
nerves, prevent and eradicate intermit-'
tent and remittent fevers, promote ap-
petite and sleep. and are highly recon-
mended by physicians as desirable
medicinal stimulant and tonic.

CANTON, o., Sept. 1.-The advent of
autumn was notable in Canton by the
arrival of a delegation of the Republican
editors of West Virginia, 80 per cent. of
the Republican newspapers of the state
being represented by their editors or own
ers in the delegation, and every man as
well as woman and child who accompanied
them came to see Major Mckinley.
The editors after dinner marched to the
Mckinley residence. The appearance of
the major was the signal for an outburst
of applause. He was introduced by Hon.
P. W. Morris, editor of the Richie Ga
zette, and president of the Republican
press association Of West Virginia.
Major Mckinley was heartily and re-
peatedly cheered by the men when he
dress of Mr.. Morris. The ladies waved
their handkerchiefs and clapped their
hands. Major Mckinley said:
The cause in which you are engaged
this year is one commanding both con-
science and interest The Republican
cause never was more just and righteous
than this year and the triumph of It's prln-
ciples was never more essential to the
general welfare of the American people
than now. We have had great political
contests in the past but l doubt If any
was ever waged which involved higher
interests to the people and to the country
paisn. applause and cries of That's
right.D Nothing is more vital to the
standing and progress of a country than
the preservation OF its credit and financial
honor. applause and cries of That's
right, too.D Nothing is more indispensa-
bic to business and prosperity than that
the currency of the country shall be so
honest that it can cheat nobody. Great
chee5sng.) Nothing is of greater moment
to the welfare of the country than the
adoption of a policy with fair returns.
Applause and cries Of 'Good.'D But, gen.
tlemen, lying beneath all these and more
important than all these, is the preserva-
ton Of law and order-the reign of do
nestle quiet (Cheers.) All these are en-
braced in the contention which is upon
us this year. In connection with the
question as editors and proprietors you
nave the gravest responsibilities. You
help to make public sentiment and right
public sentiment is what is most needed
at this juncture of our national affairs
Never was the press of the country more
aroused to these issues than now. Never
did the Republican cause have such
mighty support from the newspapers of
the United States as it has today. This
help is not confined to the Republican
press alone but includes many of the
greatest newspapers which have hitherto
advocated the Democratic cause. Great
applause) All this is an evidence that
the people appreciate that a great crisis
is upon them and that the way to avoid
that crisis is for the patriotic men of
every section of the country to unite and
act together in the common cause of the
country. (Applause.)

IT is NO Selfish CONCERN,

therefore, that prompts me to express the
hope that West Virginia may become
permanently a Republican state Cheers
and cries of 1T viii go Republican this
fall all rlghtO, and that what she gained
SO gloriously in 1894 will not be lost in
1896. Great applause) The Republican
party aims higher than hiatt is not
merely the success of individuals or party
but the good of the country it seeks, and
1t is in that spirit, animated only by
patriotic sentiment, that l wish always to
constantly speak and act" (Applause)
The major then made a rapid review of
the natural resources of West Virginia;
her manufactures mines, agricultural
WOO! raising, etc., and continued: How
much these several industries have suf-
fered in the last three years YOU know
better than could tell you. How much
the wool growers have lost, those who
nave sheep and raise wool know accu-
fate!y. They know what the experience
OF the last three years has cost them to
the very cent. All these interests are
directly affected, all are directly benefit
ed or injured by our industrial legisla-
ton. You know, and the people know
that every one of them were advanced by
Republican legislation (applause) and
tEat all OF them have been more or less
injured by Democratic legislation. Great
applause and cries of you are rightly
