When the Cleveland administration
was borrowing money on the sale Of
bonds Republican papers blamed the
Wilson bill with the deficit, although
Harrison handed over on empty treas
ury. Now the Dingley law has been in
operation for some days and the differ
ence in the receipts is marked. For in
stance, on July 20, when Dingley was
hurrying up the tariff in order to save
the treasury from loss, the receipts from
customs were 81 go ,63l; on July 81, $2,-
433, ,435; on July %, sl,l53 $50. Mr..
Dingley's first full day, July 26. brought
in 1914, ,52l, and July 27, his second day,
$1O5, 5S5-in other words, loss to the
treasury of over 81 600, 900 day, taking
the average of the three days when he
was shouting that every days delay
cost the government 100000. The de-
ficit for July up to date is $40, 100000,
and would be much larger but for the
extraordinary receipts under the Will
son bill. We shall know more of this
tariff monstrosity after a while.

WHAT WE KNOW

We are we'll acquainted With
mechanic in Canton who used to work
in the shop and made his 81 200 year.
1t was difficult for him to get one day
of for recreation or a convention of any
kind
How is it now7=sAs he tells us mat
ters changed some years ago and have
been getting worse. Last year he earn
ed $3.50, and so far this year he has not
done that we'll. 1t is not because he
does not want to work, for he has been
on the GO asking for it, and it is not
because he is not good and faithful
Workman and every way worthy,
This is only one case out of hundreds
in Canton and these men as yet have
not found or seen that promised pros.
perity. Canton is no exception in these
respects, for the same status prevails
over the country east and west, and
north and south
About year ago began the era of
marching gatherings to Canton to honor
Major Mckinley, the Republican cam
didate for president and listen to his
discourses and take in his rosy pictures
of prosperity and "protection" Of
course thousands went away enthused
and elevated with hope and confidence,
and thousands of those thousands, hav-
ing failed to realize that prosperity, are
in the gloom of despair.
Republican papers are doing their
best to propitiate the disappointed,
declaring that prosperity is here and
in this way restore confidence in the rank
and file, so as to get their votes at elec-
ton for Hanna, Bushnell & Co. How
they succeed will be more apparent
after election.
People voted a change, and a change they
have got;
But a change for the better we reckon
not.

The Democrats are making strong
legislative nominations in Ohio and are
in fair way of carrying a majority on
joint ballot and thus terminating Mark
Hanna's career as senator. The Stark
Carroll district held its convention at
Canton on Tuesday and nominated
Junius g. Ferrall, of Carroll for state
senator There is little doubt of his
election, although the district gave a
Republican majority last fall. Mr.. Ferrall
takes the nomination unpledged for
United States senator. In the Cambridge
senatorial convention for the counties of
Noble, Guernsey, Coshocton and Tus-
carawas, David G. Kennon has been
nominated, and as the district gave
Bryan 2,l0O majority, there is no doubt
of his election. Both parties are put
ting forward their strongest men for the
legislature, and the contest will be of a
very exciting character. This is Ohio's
Democratic year, however.-Pittsburg
Post, August 5th.

The distinguished ChaunceyM. Depew,
of New York, has just returned from
visit to Great Britain, and in an inter-
view with representatives of the press
he declared that his observation con-
vinced him that the British islands were
never so prosperous; that money is
abundant, that all industries are busy,
and that wages are better than they
have been for many years. This pros
perity is confirmed by Others. England
is desirous that the United States shall
remain loyal to the gold standard, and
they have been lately knocking down
the price of silver in London probably
to bother President McKinley's silver
commission. or course our gold organs
are referring to this decline in silver
with glee, seeming to regard it as a
triumph. Great is English goldbuggery.

BEAR THIS IN MIND.
1t Will Save You Many Dollar and
Lots of Trouble.

After trying remedies thai helped you.
When you have tried cures that didn't.
When you are completely stuck and
in despair.
When your poor back still aches,
Because you didn't get down to causes
If you toss all night raCked with back
pain.
If you cannot bend over and straighter
up.
Depend upon it, it's your kidneys.
Kidney disorder rarely leaves on its
own accord.

Or arrange for new lease.
They cure all kidney complaints.
This is their mission and they fulfill it,

of this Canton citizen.

10th Reg, Co. A, Ohio Vel. and served
in it during the civil war for four years
and three months. Since then l have
been troubled with kidney complaint
the hardships and exposure no doubt
being the cause of it. My back ached
so severely that had to give up and &c
home, no matter how much work had
on my hands. When STOPPING over
could straighten up, with catches in the
small Of my back or kidneys that were
so sharp that they caused me to sink
down And accompanying this there
was distressing and annoying urinary
weakness. / took medicines for it o.
various kinds, but without any lasting
benefit. At last | used Doan's Kidney

me to go to Durbin, Wright Co.'s drus

Senator Aldrich had a very different
idea Of the sort of tariff logically due
from McKinley's election from that re.
Gently expressed by the Brooklyn Eagle.
In his speech in the senate on May 25
Mr.. Aldrich said; "It was, l believe,
thoroughly understood throughout the
country in the last political campaign
that if the Republican party should be
again intrusted with power no extreme
tariff legislation would follow" A tariff
which is more than 80 per cent higher
than the war tariff of 1862 is certainly
"eXtreme.

All, Mistress Hailner can II be
A surfeit Of prosperity
Hath the overwholmed2 For is itnot
The truth that rarely It's the lot
OF mortals to receive such pay
For making pants cents day?
That you your gratitude may show,
Praise God from whom all blessings flow"
From such enormous wages you
Must save and pay the rent when due,
A bit of Rockefeller's oil
Tlluminates your midnight toll
And thus you help that man endow
His colleges, To prove you now
Feel happy that the thingfs so,
Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
A bit of beef your strength sustains,
And helps increase Phil Armour's gains;
Thus of your earnings somo does well
In helping Phil save souls from hell
Not from the hell we now endure,
But one the preachers would make sure
As you have helped Phips mission so
Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
You starve? Pray let me ask you why,
When food is cheap and wages high?
SO high that eight whole cents day
Seems really like enormous pay.
Methinks from that you ought to save
Enough for trips across the wave;
As you can save enough to go,
Praise God from whom all blessings flow. ;
All, Mistress Haffner, can't you see
How great your earthly blessings be2
How blessed is talent which
Will help sweat shop shark get rich.
You labor that the millionaire gains,
Nor stop to nurse your aches and pains,
Now sing your gratitude to show,
Praise God from whom all blessings flow.

Of course the prices of goods are going
up. That is what the Dingley tariff was
made for. But we do not learn that
wages are going rp and idle men getting
employment. The last year of the vii,
son tariff the treasury deficit was slS,.
100000 against s69 100000 in the last
year Of the Mckinley tariff. For the
first month of the Dingley tariff the
deficit is Sl1, 100000, or more than one,
half the deficit for the last twelve months
Of the Wilson tariff.

HANNA, THE GREAT MoGUL.
loRIGTNAL J

Hanna's the great mogul, ween,
The man who rules, and runs the machine;
He dictates here and urges there
And must have his way most everywhere.
As Republican king he rules the roost,
Some he'll displace, and others he'll boost.
The ruling man in the g. o.p.
Is this mighty Hanna of high degree
At once he sprung into lofty fame,
Attaching himself to McKinley's name,
Compelling Bushnell to place him where
He would occupy John Sherman's chair;
And so this Hanna mogul has flown,
Until the White House he seems to own
And again Ohio's to bow the knee,
And carry out the mogul's decree
But people had better watch and pray
And disregard his tyrannical sway
Give him a backset, mayhap bust,
That will much alarm each dangerous trust
So start along the great cause of right
And rescue the land from the present blight
The Peoples the power to save from doom
And start along "prosperity's" boom!
