We are inclined TO believe that
for once in his life. Hon. Mark Hanna
is mistaken. He declares that the
question Of trusts is in no sense a polit-
ical one. If he doesn't change his mind
about il before the republican national
convention he will have cause to do 50
when the returns from the presidential
election are in.-Chicago Chronicle.
The humorous side of Mr.. Hanna
was shown when he had resolution
adopted by the convention condemning
trusts. Unless he is grossly misrepre-
sented his strong box holds more or
less of stock of every good-paying trust
in America. But the republican leaders
Themselves admit that the convention
did not remove the cause of the several
factions. and none of them is sanguinc
that Ohio will go republican this fall. |

When Candidate Mckinley SONG

- NHenNandIdatc Mckinley sought

Hanna who conducted his winning
campaign, and this same unscrupu-
lous. serviccable friend raised corrup-
ton fund Of millions to make his cleo
tion sure. The friendship thus &C.
mented has grown in strength and
fervor. The presidents gratitude has

Hanna is TO be accounted one Of the
most potent infiuences-probably the
most potent infuencc-in the govern
ment, as long as Mckinley is president.
Whether he has attained ANYTHING be-
yond this is more open TO question.
We see no proof OF his influence in the
senate. aside from what this affords
him. He has certainly taken no lead
ing position in debate there. We find
him neither originating nor connecting
his name with any important question
of public policy. His fellow senators do
not refer to him any further than he is
supposed TO represent President Me-
kinley. President Mckinley's own
course upon public questions has been
negative or tentative. according TO the
native bent Of his mind. He has never
put forward any policy through Hanna.

THE ARTHUR SCHOOL
Commissioners Expect to Have Bufld-
Ing ReOccupied Next Week

1t Is expected by the District officials
that the pupils attending the Arthur pub
lie school will be permitted to resume the,r
occupation of the building some time NEXT
week. 1t will be recalled that the children
from this school were sent several weeks
ago to the Gales building where they were
taught for half day the pupils of the
Gales school also being given half DAVIS
instruction. The removal of the children
from the Arthur building was due, as was
stated in The Star at the time, to the fear
OF the school officials that the work in the
sewer excavation In front of the building
rendered 1t unsafe for occupancy. This
work has been practically completed, and
the big engine in the vicinity which is
said to have caused several cracks to an
pear In the walls through its vibrations
will be removed in day or so. The Dis
trtct officials state that no serious damage
had been done to the school building. and
only slight repairs to it will be necessary.
1t Is said. Much complaint has been made
by the parents of the children attending
both the Arthur and Gales schools because
OF the children being given instruction for
one-half the usual time each day.

Complaint was made to the District Com
missioners some time ago that prescrip-
tons were being compounded in the drug
departments Of the Eastern Dispensary and
the almshouse, where 1t was claimed no
registered druggist is employed, and that,
therefore. the law regulating the practice
of pharmacy was being violated. It was
suggested by the complainant that the at
tention of the United States prosecuting at
torney In the Police Court be directed to
the complaint. The matter has been re-
ferred by the Commissioners to the visiting
physician of the almshouse for a report as
to the possibility and necessity of employ
ing registered druggist there.
