SILVER FORCES
GATHER IN GREAT NUMBERS AT
NEW BERLIN.
A Splendid Meeting Held Saturday
Night-Msyor Young, of Akron,
Was Present and Canton
Talent Also Helped.

The campaign opened at New Berlin
Saturday evening. The village streets
were blocksded with the carriages Of the
surrounding farmers, who assembled in
the commodious hall of the town to hear
the doctrines of Democracy expounded
by Mayor Young Of Akron. The hall
was well filled when the orator of the
evening ascsnced the platform and was
flttingly introduced by MIR. Ish Morrow,
president Of the New Berlin free silver
club.
Mayor Young's effort was listened to
with profound interest He touched upon
the all absorbing topic Of finance and gave
a thorough exposition Of the Republican
rIbber tariff. At the conclusion Of his
excellent address President Morrow called
upon Mayor Rico who responded with one
of his char cteristic speeches.
Squire Hudson, WHO occupied q seat
upon the platform, was CALLED upon FIR u
few remarks. He made an address filed
With the enthusiasm of one interested in
the cause of the people and was applauded

Rhodes Gregory was an interested
listener and those who knew his versa
tility called upon him for few remarks
upon the issues of the day Mr.. Gregory
was equal to the occasion and he spoke
briefly but to the point. His illustra-
tive story was full Of pith and carried q
convincing argument with it.
Ish Morrow then took the stand and
read the statement Mark Hanna made
after leaving his dear friend Foraker at
Burton. His reading was strictly orr
ginal and caused storms of applause from
the audience.
The crowd was large and the sentiment
for free silver and return of the good
old days when prosperity reigned in fact
and not alone in the empty promises of
the politicians, was manifested In the en-
thusiastic applause which greeted the
remarks Of all the speakers Of the even

FULTON FAIR.
THE LITTLE CITY THROWN
OPEN TO GUESTS.

A Most Successful Event Which Has
Inst closed at Canal Fuiton-Hospit-
able Citiz ms who Have Reason
TO Congratulate Themselves.
There has just closed, at Canal Fulton,
one of tie mo interesting and success
full events that ever occurred In stark
county. Ire Canal Fulton sire t fair
is at 40 end but the pleasant rtcollections
of the event will linger for years In the
memories of those who were fortunate
enough Co have taken advantage to Visit
the thriving little city aud part Ike OF the
hospitality and good cheer so bountifullS
and prodig lls bestowed by the citizens.
When the good leoTle Of Canal Fulton
decided to have street fair 1t was a
happy conception, but they did not oeasS
their work with the mere inception OF the
promi ed event, but went to work with a
will to make it more than medi Gritty in
interest and exhibits. Everybody took
occasion to le ID their time and energies,
and the people were particularly fortu-
nate at happy in the selection OF their
officers the affair being managed by the
follo.ius officers and members OF the
executive board: r. f. Myers, prt sideDti
w. :. H1stetlers, secretary; j W. Blller,

police; Orriu Med ,well, II. A. Fisher, W.

Louis Liable.
The sight which greeted the eyes Of
straug RS ente-ing the town was pro-
fusion of flags, bunting, evergresns and
decorations of every description. Busi-
ness houses, shops, factories and dwelling
houses ere aim st entirely enveloped in
flags, bunting ard streamers, while over
all the main entrances to the city arches
were erected composed Of wheat rye, oats,
evergreen, flags, etc, which evidenced
a spirit of enthusiasm on the part Of the
projectors Of the enterprise and lent color
to the generally teautiful surroundings.
The exhibitions were splendid, the dis
play of farm products indicating the
interest the surrounding country took in
the project. There were many events
iu which great interest was taken AT
no time was the pleasure allowed to lag,
70. there was always something transpir-
ing to either amuse or instruct. One Of
the features was band contest with
four entries, New Berlin, Manchester,

tion. New Berlin captured first prize, $50;
Mauchest'r second, $50; Crystal Springs
third, $40. The splendid Massillon Mill
tary band gave concerts during the fair
which were highly enjoyable.
1t was generally remarked that each
citizen of Canal Fulton had delegated
TO himself the power to act in the capa-

visitors we're all we'll taken care Of Com
Portable and hospitable hostelries and pi-

more little statement. That is, that Mr..
Hanna Is using the re mai nder of the vast
campaign FAM he gathered last year in
a most dishonorable manner.
"Mr. Hanna went into this fight for
the nomination for the senate with a
fund Of 81, 400, 900 in his hands, left over
from the fund raised for the election Of a
president. Had Mr.. Hanna besn nomi.

tory of the patty has the chairman of a
national committee dared to override all
considerations of financial and personal
honor and use that Immense fund to Sc
cure nomination.
"of course Mr.. Hanna is not ,responsi-
BILE to anyone. The law cannot lay its
hands on him. That money is in his
hands and will be expended as he sees fit.
He is accountable to no one, not even to
Charley Dick, for the manner or placs he
spends it. But the people of the Uni ed

little before they elect man who has

PROSPERITY FOR TRUSTS.
What Haunaism Has Done For the Pro-
tected Monopolists.

What Haunaism Has Done For the Pro-
tectcd Monopolists.
No more interesting, illuminating
and suggestive commentary upon cur
rent commercial conditions is printed
anywhere than that which an eminent
journalist, writing over the pseudonym
OF Matthew Marshall" contributes to
the Sun. 1t is true that the writer's
attitude is that OF an extreme conser-
vative, a defender OF vested interests
against all assaults. When this fact is
kept in mind, regular perusal of his ar
ticles Is sure to entertain and perhaps
to instruct the reader.
Last Monday Marshall discussed the
position of the so-called industrial
stocks in the market. With commend
able frankness he chronicled the fact
that the stocks of such monopolistic
corporations as the Standard Oil
trust, the American Sugar Refining
company and the Consolidated Gas
company have shown the most rapid
advances and hold the strongest posi-
ton in the market. He notes that
Standard OIL stock launched at 80 Is
now about 325, despite heavy increase
In capitalization, and that sugar Ger.
tiflcates, which once under hostile de-
cisions by the courts of this state and
fear OF receiverships for some of the
company's most valuable refneries
fell nearly to So" are now in
the neighborhood of 157. AS for the
rise In gas stocks, the writer describes
1t as both unexpected and large"-ad-
jectives which an increase from 70 or
less in 1887 to nearly 220 this year in
the price OF New York Consolidated
Gas certainly justifes.
Curiously enough, so astute writer
as Marshall wholly fails to note the
reasoss for the remarkable prosperity
OF these corporations. In the cases Of
the first two he ascribes 1t wholly to
the superior talent with which their
affairs have been conducted" Superior
talent is perhaps an over-euphemistic
phrase to apply to the methods OF Mr..
John d. Rockefeller and Mr.. II. o.
Havemeyer. In the records of long
series of legislative investigations and
court proceedings the quality OF supe-
rior unscrupulousness seems to have
been pretty clearly established In their
procedure. The skill with which leg
islatures ard railway boards have been
corrupted for the good OF Standard Oil
and the astuteness with which an or
dinary somnolent United States senate
has been stirred into amazing activity
In behalf OF sugar probably implies
talent, but 1t suggests the exertion of
less admirable mental qualities.-Ne

The Police Think His Story of BEING Held
Up Pretty Thin.

Up Pretty Thin.
A miner named p f. Ryan claimed to
the police that he was held up by high
waymen late Sunday morning, but the
police. after investigation, concluded
it was only case of drunk. Ryan had
been drinking considerably in a saloon
at No. 120 East Park street. Just out
side the saloon the sidewalk is steep,
and there is hole at the side of the
walk Ryan claims that he was stopped
by highwaymen and thrown down into
the hole and that they then jumped
down after him and robbed him of all
his money, which he said was about 80
cents.
Big Ben" was walking along Park
street and heard Ryan grunting down
in the hole off the sidewalk and helped
him out. Ryan told the story of the
hold-up. The police We're notified and
Chief Mulholland investigated the story
and after questioning Big Ben the
saloonkeeper and others, concluded that
Ryan was simply drunk and had fallen
into the hole. The part of Park street
where the hold-up Is alleged to have
taken place is we'll lighted. frequently
patroled and is near the heart of the
city, and it is doubtful If highwaymen
would endeavor to operate in such a
place.
