Starr Township Institute.

On Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday of last week, the institute
of the teachers of Starr Township
was held in the old school building
at Union Furnace, the special OBJ
iect of the assembly being the con-
sideration of the new charts that
have been purchased for use in the
schools OF that township. The
teachers were addressed by Prof.
w. O. Smith, of Columbus, on var.
ious subjects pertaining to school
work, AS we'll as the chart. Prof.
Smith is now an instructor In the
Medical School at Columbus. Dur
Ing his vacation season he repre-
sents the Columbus School Supply

years Superintendent OF the Iron

were all very Interesting and pro-
fitable, and will douptless be

tion with these words:
My sense of honor forbids that !

1t is strange that Judge Nash's
thrust should have been made the
very day Hanna's warning was
published. There can be no doubt
that each knew the others inten-
ton; that Judge Nash wasa party
to Hanna's brutal threat, and that
Hanna dictated Judge Nash's in
sulting letter. They worked to.
gether then and are working to-
gether now.
AL the people of Ohio are in
honor bound to resent these vicious
attacks upon the governor of Onio,
who, whatever his politics. repre-
sented the power and wealth and
dignity Of this state. But we sub
init that Republicans have special
reasons to resent them because they
came from one who was bent on
disgracing their party as much as
on running the governor. That the
Republicans of Ohio will manifest
their resentment at the polls next
November cannot be doubted. In
honor and self respect they could
not do otherwise.
The time has now come for a
settlement of accounts with Mr.,
Hanna. He will be hit now blow
that he may attribute in large part
to his vulgar abuse of the governor
of Ohio in 1S9S-Col. Press.

Gorgeous,
The Display Of Novelties at Roses.

The fall season was inaugurated at
Roses on Wednesday morning with
a special sale. That it was a glorious
and gorgeous affair goes without
further explanation, for the reputa-
tion Of this substantial firm is such
that none can doubt these facts.
From the front of the store to the
rear are stocked the largest and most
complete line of clothing, hats, caps
mems furnishing goods, umbrellas,
underwear, neckwear, jewellery,
valices, shirts, etc, etc, ever seen in
Logan. No store in Columbus or
Cincinnati can show cleaner and
better selected stock. In our chill
drens clothing, we have made this
a feature, and in rooms you will see
things that will dazzle your eyes.
The season has fairly begun. but
from the present indications, it will
be the most successful in Mr.. Roses
40 years experience.

little or no Information among
Democrats and played the "drop it"
act with his note book in Colum-

wise democrats to close themselves

consequence in this town,

ga Marked Man"

Early in January, 1898, the Ohio
State Journal, at the conclusion oi
an abusive and slanderous TRADE
against Governor Bushnell, who
was then about to be inaugurated
second time after having led his
party to victory in this state in the
previous November with plurality
of 2S,l65, informed the governor
that he was ga marked man politi-
cally for the balance of his life.',
The Journal was then being edited
directly from the Hanna head
quarters in this city, which were
then the scene of the conspiracy to
steal the senatorship. The Jour.
nails ultimation to Governor Bush
nell, therefore, was Hanna's ulti.
matum. Its abuse was his abuse
and its threats his threats. Gov
ernor Bushnell had dared to prefer
another Republican for senator
than the big boss, and for that act
was bluntly told that the boss would
ruin him and all who, like him,
wished to save the party from the
shame attached to a purchased
seat in the United States senate.
What did Hanna mean by saying
that Governor Bushnell was "a
marked man politically for the
balance of his life ?" 1t meant that
IL he ever again became candi.
date for Office in this state, Hanna
would put him to the knife; that
the administration at Washington,
which was behind Hanna, would
ignore and insult the governor of
Ohio, as 1t in fact subsequently did
at every opportunity; and that all
Republicans who refused to be tools
of the senator would share the ruin
to be visited upon the governor.
That WAS the kind of Republican
ism Mark Hanna preached In 1898,
and the kind he has practiced all
his life and is practicing now.
Mr.. Hanna is now a candidate
for governor in the person OF Judge
Nash. The Judge was of the Han
ma school in 1898. On the very
same day that Hanna warned Gov
ernor Bushnell through the Journal
that he was "a marked man for
life" Judge Nash wrote letter to
the executive resigning his trus.

About Gas for School Buildings.

Editor OHIO DEMOCRAT. The
paid article in the last issue of the
Journal Gazette under the caption
of "Cheap gas for the School
Building" and intending to be re-
Election on two members of the
School Boaid requires answering
only to call attention to it's incon-
sistancies and Misrepresentation,
and not for any particular harm il
can do any member of the school
board or any one else, for it is
prompted solely by feeling of
malice, because Its author {the old
Gas Coz can no longer bleed the
people, thanks to the presence of
little healthy competition.
First false statement-The con-
ditions of the contract offered by
the old company were not the
same, "for the same period and un-
der the same conditions" Their
bid was for one gear only, while the
bid of the new company was for
three years. Under the committees
call they requested bids for one.
two and three years. The bid of
the Logan Gas Light & Coke Co.
was $l4O 90 per year for three gears.
AT the rate we are now paying the
Old company, namely $224.77, this
bid makes a saving of $25431. The
Logan Natural Gas & Fuel Co. (the
old company bid $1,000 for one
gear only refusing to bid for three
years. The committee unanimous
ly adopted the long contract, not
withstanding the statement that
DIR. Blosser voted for the Old Com
pany's bid.
OF course Warner can be excused |
for voting for the new company,
because he has had experience
with the old company on short time
contracts to his sorrow. After go
ing to an expense Of $4OO 90 to put
gas under the Electric Light Com
pany's boilers, he was led to believe
he would get reduction in price
at the expiration of the short cor
tract. Instead they attempted to
raise the price $25 90 per month,
and actually did make us pay
$4,000 per year more than the
original contract price. OF course
theirs was peculiar kind OF Gas;
1t was like zone price clothier,"
as they say, II you don't want it at
their price, you don't have to take
it.
But since they have discovered
that the tax payers ought not to
pay over $40 100 per year for hea ting
their school buildings, I trust they
will send us their check for the
$6l9.oS over-paid them in the last
four years.
Hoping that this competition
may continue until some, at least
of the enormous profits taken out
of our peoples pockets in the last
four years may be retrieved, very
truly, l.. WARNER.
