J. l.. ST0NER
Makes Few Suggestions Upon What
He Thinks is a Living
Issue.

Editor Democrat: There is a great
controversy about the expense of the
workhouse and its doings. First, in or
der to stop this leakage, the saloons must
be stopped, and then you can shut up the
workhouse and its doings, for there is
where the most come from for the work
house. II the saloons would all be stop
ped we would only have few convicts and
they might bebonrled at an hotel and the
expense would be small, or in other
words, put them right on the public high
way and make them dig out so as to make
good foundation. They could haul
stone in bulk and make the convicts
break them right there and only feed
them as they are fed in the penitentiary,
and keep temporary movable house to
board them in, and sleep right with the
place where they work, and put u good
chain on every ones leg so they could not
get away. BY doing this way we would
have only few convicts to take care of in
our county Then our saving TO pay taxes
would be gained or less taxes by about
$4,000 year by counting the interest
on the building or on the whole affair of
the workhouse. Then we would have
no need for any directors, the commission
ers would then be able to transact all the
work that the directors are doing at pre-
sent, and one guard could take care Of
all the convicts by treating them in that
way. l think in n short time there
would be but few left for the road. Let
the railroads take care of their tramps on
their road and if caught let them make
use in the same way. They would soon
be bothered with less.
I, a1Nn cal In,
the county we can expect to pay big tax
es. The statement from Massillon comes
that poverty and crimes come from the
drinks. They claim it cost Massillon or
the working people 5000, 900 for the drink
per year.
/ wish every taxpayer would write a
piece in regard to the matters of the work
house. l for one did not vote for work
house. There was no price stipulated,
that made it in the hands Of the officials
just to do MS they pleased.
Now we know chat every farmer in
Stark county has been suffering greatly
on account of high taxations. We can
only make one-fourth what we could
twenty five years ago, and our taxes are
three times as high, and the laws in price
of land have fallen about half. Do you
not think we should be more econom-
ioal and have our officials paid according
to what things out of the earth are worth:
Now If we only keep our convicts from
Stark county, the interest ON the work
house, it's contents, directors, superinten-
dents and guards, will cost us the best
part Of thousand dollars for each con-
vict year.
Now what to do with the workhouse
use it for part Of the poor house or rather
as hospital. j. L. STONER.

HAITI AGAIN IN TROUBLE.

This Time Italy WI Forcibly Collect n
Claim.
PoRT ~ PRINCE, Dec. 15.-More
trouble of kind similar to the recent
Lueders affair threatens Haiti and Port
au Prince may have to face another
menace of bombardment.
Italy has long had claims against
Haiti and these, it is alleged, have
never been settled. One claim, which
has been pending since 1893, was the
case of the merchant at Port de PaiX,
whose vessel and cargo, worth $4,000,
were, it is alleged, illegally seized and
sold by the Haitian government. The
other case was that of an Italian fisher.
man who was assassinated here last
October, the man who was accused of
committing the crime not having been
brought to justice yet.
Italy, it is reported, intends to push
the settlement of these claims at once
and rumors have reached here that
Italian warships are being sent here to
back up the demands.
