A Good School.

The editor had the pleasure this
week of a brief call at the Donnelly
school, where Mr.. Philip Rowe is
doing especially good work. Prof.
Rowes bearing in the school room
challenges admiration and the regard
in which he is held by the pupils is
the best testimonial to his popularity.
The true spirit is shown by the way
in which he has decorated the walls
of the school room with inspiring
pictures and and the interest which
he awakened in the celebration of
Arbor Day, resulting in the sur
rounding of the school house with
trees. The community is proud of
its school and justly so, and feel that
Prof. Rowe has raised the standard
of its school and set the standard for
years to come. To do this is q
greater reward to any teacher thans,.
the meresquestion Of salary ever is.

MUSTERED IN.
Recruits Received In Canton
For the United States
Army.

Captain John c. F.. Tillson arrived in
Canton at noon Monday and mustered
into the United States army service
Charles A. Nixon, who enlisted Satur-
day afternoon. Nixon will leave to-
morrow for New York from which place
he will embark for the Philippines.
John Myers also enlisted Monday
morning, but owing to the fact that he
went to Akron Immediately after and
did not arrive here in time to be mus
tered in with Nixon, he will have to wait
until Captain Tillson's second visit, the
latter part of the week. Myers served
during the Spanish-American war as a
member of Co. G., 22d infantry, and
fought in the battles of Ell Caney, charge
OF San Juan hill and skirmishes from
July to II. His discharge gave him an
excellent character.
Charles Roubinall. a veteran in the
regular army service appeared at the re-
cruiting station this afternoon and sig
nifed his intention of reinlisting. He
has served in all eight years In the SER
vice. Roubinall has lost his last dis

All the pledges of the Republican
party have been solemnly kept. The
trusts will go-that has been promised,
and promises mean something to Re
publicans.-Cleveland Leader.
False in one, false in ALL" is an
acknowledged rule. The party that
builds up trusts and whose agents in
authority refuse to enforce the laws
against them, as in the case of United
States Attorney General Griggs, of
New Jersey, the state mother of trusts,
cannot be trusted. This man Griggs,
when called to the cabinet as attorney
general, by the president was governor
chosen as the friend of these abomina-
tions.
And, here in Ohio, Monnet, attorney
general of this state. has been re-
pudiated by his party because of his
trying to enforce the laws of his state
against the Standard Oil trust The
lying Leader should remember that
acts speak louder than words.
The truth Is that not one pledge
made by the Republican party has
been kept.

OBJECT LESSON
RIGHT AT HOME.
What the Trust Did For a Force
of Canton WOrkmen.
THE FACTORY ABSORBED
BY the Trust and More Than "A Hundred
People Were Thrown Out of Em-
ployment to Come Into Com
petition with Others.

Several months ago the News-Demo-
crat predicted the removal of the BIZ
cycle saddle department of the Gillian
works out of the city and at the same
time stated that many employees would
be thrown out of employment. The ar
ticle was accompanied by statement
from one of the officials of the works
in which he acknowledged that the COM
pany had sold out their bicycle saddle
department to the trust and that they
would shortly thereafter remove it to
some point near Cleveland. At the same
time 1t was acknowledged that number
of employees would be thrown out Of en-
ployment, but the statement was made
that the most of them would be given
employment in other departments and
not thrown upon their own resources.
1t is now learned, upon most reliable
information, that the bicycle saddle de-
partment of the Gillian works which
has sold out to the iniquitious trust, has
removed all it's machinery and other
accessories to Cleveland or point
nearby and that altogether over 1O(
because of the closing down of this de.
partment. There were really nearly 15(
employees put out by the transfer, but
number Of them were retained anC
placed in other departments. The Ma
tional Bicycle Saddle company has
been purchasing factories and throwing
people out of work in other cities, JUS
as it did here. The Canton machinery
was sent away few weeks ago, ant
Benjamin S. Seaman, former foreman
employed in the department, who is sale
accompanied the department and ha'
charge of it in the city named where /
is in operation. The bicycle depart
ment began closing down and since th
first of July last there has been a grad
ual squeezing out Of the employees unit
all were out and the machinery wa
then packed up for shipment. Among
these employees were many young mar
ried people, and there were also numer
Gus young people who assisted in tn
support of their families at home, b.
their work. The iniquitious operation
of the trust could not be better exem
plified than in this instance, right her
in Canton. The men who are throw
out of employment have entered int
competition with men in other pursuits
1t is Canton's first lesson in trusts.

vreme court to have this liability fixed.
The cases come up Wednesday morning.

PIT and PENDULUM.
A Prisoner Waiting to be
Hacked by Time'o
Scythe.
Thousands Whose Situations
Are Scarcely Less Terrible
May Easily and Readily Find
Help,

A man lies fiat on bis back, bound SO that
he cannot move an inch. He is in dun
geon, at first dark as well, but in few min
utes light in the ceiling, far up, shows o
mechanical figure Of Time with his scythe.
The figure dcscends slowly, the scythe
swings, and the prisoner realizes that unless
some unexpected help should come, ne will
be slowly cut to pieces. What followed IS
told by Edgar Allen Poe in the fantastic
story called The PIT and the Pendulum"
The man awaiting the approach Of a
dreadful death is typeof large class of I'M
fortunates who, entargled In the strangling
coils of an octopus, have lost all hope offree-
dom. This monster is Morphine. Perhaps
the victim is yet reveling in that glorious
state of exhilaration which follows the first
use of the drug. Ifso, like the man in Poe's
story, he has not noticed the light in the cell
ing and is unaware Of his danger. Maybe
the disease has progressed so far that the
sufferer notices weakness of the hearts &C
ton, that the general health is feeble the
body poorly nourished, the sight double.
This is soon followed by peculiar twitch-
Ing of the muscles, a numbness of the hands
and feet, and the utter collapse Of the
nervous system. The victim now becomes
