Certain journals have much to say
about New York and Tammany, but lit
tie to say of Philadelphia. philadelphia
is a Republican city and eclipses New
York in thievery and rascality. The
city building that was to cost two mil
lions or so, was begun over twenty years
ago, and has cost sor1e twenty-five mil
lions and is not near finished 1t Is
said 1t will cost twenty millions more.
The municipal league of Philadelphia,
a partisan organization, states that
at the last election at Philadelphia, 3d.
900 fraudulent votes were cast, though
they state that other estimates regarded
as conservative place the number at
so, 900. This enormous fraudulent vote
could only be cast by consent of the
election officers. Such stupendous rob-
berry and rascality seem to be the rule
in that city, but don't seem to disturb
Republican journals. Only New York
and Tammany disgruntle them.

from Ohio and Michigan, various
prominent federal office holders, and
a number of retired patriots, like En-
balmed Beef Alger and ex-President
Harrison.
This stupendous campaign scheme to
flood "the presidents state" with
spell binders and befuddle the wits of
voters at every cross road by trying to
make "the worse appear the better
reason" is conclusive evidence that the
G. o. P. cause is without merits. and
that desperate measures only can save
1t from humiliating defeat.
1 used to vote the Republican ticket
and glory in the party's genesis and
early record. But let US not mince
words. AS at present managed 1t is
going to the devil fast and dragging
the republic and Christian civilization
after it. But great national crisis
impends which should make Of every
loyal Democrat and true American an
evangel to help proclaim the truth and
eypel from power a party which wor-
hips at the shrine Of avarice and whose
notions Of territorial conquest are
derived from the middle ages.

SENSIBLE REPUBLICANS

Must surely consider why it is that
such giant Republican leaders as
Thomas B. Reed, John Sherman and
others have been disgusted with the
party and it's administration. When
such a man as Mark Hanna becomes
the leader and controller of the party
and the administration, 1t is little Won
der that Reed and others should quit
in disgust
These disgusted Republicans have
not changed their principles, nor for
gotten them, for the Shermans, Hoars,
Reeds, Washburns and others, were
among the founders of the party, and
the leaders and men of thought until
displaced by the corrupt Hanna crew.
Even Senator Foraker hesitated,
scarcely knowing what 10 do in this
emergency. He well knows that Hanna
& Co. are ready to knife him. They
have not FORGOTTEN that Mr.. Foraker
took no hand in Hanna's senatorial
fight, and they are aware the senior
senator would have shed no tears of
sorrow over Hanna's defeat. 1t is well
known Hanna and his friends includ-
ing his special Washington friends,
greatly enjoyed Kohlsaat's savage and
prolonged assaults on Foraker in his
Chicago es-Herald. When we re-
member that Kohlsaat is an old time
personal and bosom friend of the presi-
dent II is no wonder Senator Foraker
felt the singing charges against him
tt was to be expected that Foraker
would mount the stump for his party
and in support of the party ticket. All
this, however, will not help him with
Hanna & Co. There is no healing
such feud 1t must and will be fought
to finish. Like the Persian Emperor
and his rebelious Bashaw. It is "youi
head or NINE"

John r. Mclean makes no preten-
tions as to oratory, nor is he political
speaker, but his common sense talks are
winning for him great praise and ad-
miration. The following short talk to
the people at Westerville, the other day,
was received with enthusiastic applause.
In response to an invitation from the
Fair Association to address the people
NJ. Mclean said:
Fellow citizens of Westerville, and
Franklin county: 1 thank you very
much for this cordial welcome to your
midst. 1t is a great pleasure for me
to be with you. 1t was my understand
ing that my meeting with you was to
be non-partisan and purely social, and
is, therefore, peculiarly pleasing to
me. Having been born and reared in a
city, my play ground was the street,
and nv field of action since has
been, to a very great extent within the
noise and hustle of a metropolis. l
therefore, can keenly appreciate the
naural beauties of your broad fields,
the shade of your great woods, the pure
air of all your country environments,
the attraction of your agricultural and
industrial resources which are
here exhibited. 1 came to mingle with
you and see your fair ! want to meet
and greet all of you, and I, therefore,
shall not endeavor to discuss political
affairs today. I desire to express my
appreciation of your kindness in in
viting me to be with you this afternoon,
and hope to see you frequently in the
fI1tura

HANNA's RECENT INTERVIEW.

The Chicago Chronicle supported
Hanna and Mckinley in 1896, but it does
not think so well of Mr.. Hanna now, as
the following will show:
Mr.. Hanna in recent interview said:
"I do not know anything about the
Philippines, the only fight / am watch
ing is the one in Ohio" These state
ments will be readily accepted by his
countrymen. Mr. Hanna does not know
and never did know anything about the
Philippines. He is not watching the
fight out there and apparently neither
is any one else, save to condemn 1t as
utterly discreditable to the republic. AS
to the hit In Ohio, of course Mr..
Hanna will watch that very carefully
|It involves his political fortunes and
his personal pocketbook.

1t is said one-third of American
workmen are under control of the trust
combinations. This centralizing of
wealth and capital in trusts is only
enslaving labor more and more. Other
people than workers may take alarm
for they will not escape, as the social
fabric is a communal arrangement
and the arm Of labor crippled or para
lyzed will endanger other classes.

A colonial empire ten thousand miles
from home Is likely to be costly and
troublesome. Trying to assimilate a
distant people with steel and lead is not
likely TO strike them as good work of
Christian piety and benevolence. We
used to claim Spain's rule was the work
Of the devil. II seems the Filipinos don't
relish our rule as any better. The in
formation is that under the rule of Gen.
Otis there are near 500 saloons In Ma
nila. and well patronized. There are
also gambling dens in abundance, be-
sides other evil arrangements. It is said
this did not used to be the case. Surely
II should not be so now under American
rule and with an American army of for
ty thousand or more.

The late Hon. John p. Jones is
hustling to get under cover. According
to the Ohio State Journal he has an
nounced a determination to support
Judge Nash and has also expressed a
desire to indorse the natioal administra-
ton. Two years ago this fall Mr..
Jones went back on his pledge to sup
port Senator Hanna because his per-
sonal interests made it necessary for
him to stand in with Governor Bush
nell. Having gathered in all the fruits
of his traitorous conduct at that time,
the North Lawrence statesman Is now
prepared to square himself with his
erstwhile constituents and get on the
warm side of the next governor Of Ohio.
Mr.. Jones' protestations of loyalty to
Judge Nash and devotion to the
national administration will be taken
for just what they are worth and no
more.-Massillon Independent.
The Independent is the west end
Hanna organ and it no doubt speaks
for the Hannaites of at least that sec
tion of the county. In Plain English
it says to John P. Jones and his friends
1--WE don't want your support for Nash
You and your friends are not worthy
considering. We have no further use
for you or any of your followers"
What do the friends of John p. Jones
think of this? Will they support the
Hanna Nash ticket in Stark county
this fall? The November election will
toll

HANNA'S SHAKEDOWN
Denounced by the Paper Owned by the
Late George w. Childs.

The New York Evening Post pub
fishes copy of a circular sent to post
masters in Maine and Kansas, and
presumably. in other states, by the
finance committee of the Ohio Republi-
can state committee, soliciting contri-
button for the current campaign. The
circular declares that Democratic
victory in Ohio this fall would carry
with italmost full control Of the politi-
cal machinery of the state, and enable
the opposition to intrench itself for
the presidential contest. References are
made to the provisions of the Civil
Service law and regulations relative
to political assessments, and it is ex-
planned that federal employees are not
prohibited from making voluntary con-
tributions, although such contributions
may not be made to a federal officer
or within a federal building. The sign
ers Of the circular say that none Of them
is in the federal service and that in
sending a contribution there need be
no violation of the law. The letter con-
tinues:
ION account, therefore, Of the impor-
tant bearing the result in Ohio this
year will have upon the greater con-
test of 1900, and because of the fact
that the defeat of the party in the presi-
dents home state would be heralded
by the opposition as a rebuke to his
administration, we hope you will aid
US in this contest by sending as liberal
a contribution as you can afford"
1t Is something new for a state COM
mittee to attempt to secure contribu-
tions from office holders, nonresident
in the state. If this were not the Ohio
committee, 1t is unlikely that the re-
turns would be sufficient to pay the
cost of printing and postage; but, Ohio
differs from other states. 1t is the presi-
dents own baliwick, and the circular
will probably meet with some measure
of response from timid Office holders
who hope to endear themselves to the
administration.
! The last Republican platform In Ohio
commended the president for his back
ward step, made in violation Of his
pledges, in relation to the release tc
the spoilsmen of thousands Of places
under the Civil Service. The spoils
system and the blackmailing of Office
holders invaribly go hand in hand, and
1t is, therefore, not surprising that the
Ohio politicians should have the impu,
dence to levy contribution upon fedora
servants In remote parts of the United
States. This practice so repugnant t.
the spirit of the Sivil Services law, 4.

politics, which is, at the same time, tn,

1t should not be forgotten that our
government belongs to the people, not
the Office holders. In France the army
seems to claim the government; for
their standing army there is a monster.

AMI upright and Fearless Judge.

1t is with great regret that we
learned, on Monday, that Judge John
Watson Barr, District Judge of the
United States Court for Kentucky,
had retired from the bench. This
step was deemed necessary by that
distinguished gentleman by reason
of failing health and the intirmities
of age, he being ~ years old.
The law authorized his retirement
two years ago, but he kept to his
post and performed the arduous
duties Of the position with great ac-
ceptance to the bar and the people
until he found that a due regard for
his own health absolutely required
this step.
We have known Judge Barr for
many long years and we know we
but voice the united sentiment Of
every one who has seen him upon
the bench, that Il purer, better man
and cleaner and ADLER Judge has
never adorned the bench in this
State.
A man of firm and strony convic-
tions upon all questions, he has
erpermitted himself to be swayed
from the clear teachings of the law,
which he so admirably administered.
He bears with him into his we'll
earned retirement the warmest re-
gard of a whole people.
There are number o. able lawyers
mentioned in connection with the
position just vacated. Among them
are Judge w. III. Holt and Gen. Dan
w. Lindsey, OF this city. They are
both tirst-class judicial timber.

While 1t may be a pleasant and
agreeable pastime for some to occupy
their leisure moments by contribut-
ing in various ways, us their taste

The compilation and publication
of matter contributed, and extensive

recording of articles donated, the
care and arrangement OF .hcse rooms
and otner duties, are necessary to the
progress and maintenance OF the

This labor devolves principally
upon the Curator end Secretary, and
necessarily requires much time and
attention, and at the same time in
wolves an expenditure of money. We
should endeavor at all times to have
sufficient funds in the hands of the
Treasurer to meet actual and con-
tingent expenses and not to impose
any additional burdens upon these
officials.

subject to the consideration of the
Executive Committee, with the sug-
gestion, If membership fees and an

possible, set forth the object and pur-
pose of this Society. The cause in
which we are enlisted should appeal
to the patriotism of every Ken
tuckian who possesses any pride OF
State or family, whether this be the
land of his nativity or the home OF
his adoption.
