CAN'T DISPUTE THIS.
Because II Is a Local Transaction and
the Citizen is ON the Spot to
Confirm 1t.

The reader of this must concede two
important points, first what follows,
having taken place in Canton, can cas-
lily be investigated and proved to be
true: Second-there is a vast differ
ence between opinions publicly ex-
pressed by resident of Canton in Can
ton local papers and the opinions daily
met with in the same papers columns
which were originally drafted In Maine
or Montana. Read this and acknowl-
edge both facts.
Mrs. G. f. Dages, No. 80 Walnut St.,
wife of the cigar manufacturer, doing
business at the same address, and mem
Der of the Grand Army band, says:
II inherited kidney disease from my
moti,er. She was troubled with dropsy
for years. had a weak back since
childhood which developed into a drag
ging, tired out pain across the loins
that was very distressing as well as
painful. Often while sitting in one po-
sition such as sewing, 1 had such ter
rible sharp twinges of pain in the kid
neys that compelled me to give up and
move about % rest myself. My hus-
band got Doans Kidney Pills at Dur
bin, Wright e. Co.'s drug store, think
ing they might relieve me, and I am
more than pleased that gave them a
trial, as 1 found them so very good. I
felt a change after using a few doses.
1 can honestly say they are worthy Of
trial by anyone suffering from kid
ney disease. My personal experience
has taught me this. My mother has
also good word to say about Doan's

CASING FOR
OIL WELLS
Work Must Be Done in Accord
ance With the Law.
THE LIGHT COMPANY CONTRACT
Signed by Massillon Councilmen After the
Company Had Made a Conces-
sion In the Interest of
the City.

Special to News-Democrat.
Massillon, Sept. 16.-State Mine In
spector Hazeltine, of Columbus, spent
Friday night in the city, having been
engaged for the past few days in the
Scio oil fields. Mr.. Hazeltine is COM
pelling all owners of both producing
and dry wells to case them in accord
ance with the state law. Mr.. Hazel
tine has every available man in his
department at work and today sent
District Mine Inspector Moore over the
casing of two wells there.
The fight between the Massillon
council and the Light, Heat and Power
Co. over the rate for a new contract
has ended in the city's favor. The COM
pany demanded $74 per annum per light
and finally conceded q reduction of
$11.60 per lamp. The council threat
ened to build light plant of it's own.
The Eclipse Oil Company of Sisters
Vile, is opening q new territory at Con-
notion, a village west of Scio. Two
wells are now drilling and one came in
recently and is producing eight barrels
daily. The Scio wells are falling off
rapidly. Wells are bein~ abandoned
almost daily and many of the wells
that came in large are now producing
less than four barrels. The average
now at Scio Is from six to eight barrels
but operators predict that this ;in the
country districts) will continue for
years.

GRABBED FARMS
Of the Filipinos---General Isaac
Davis Gives the Plain
Truth.
Special to News-Democrat.

Findlay, Sept. 16.-The biggest politi-
cal sensation Of years was sprung here
tonight, when General Isaac Davis, the
Wool King" and a prominent farmer
who was prominently mentioned in the
senatorial race, came out denouncing
the Philippine war and the administra-
tons colonial policy. He says in part:
Il am opposed to one farmer grab
bing his neighbor's farm, and that's
all there is in the Philippine business
Every rich fellow wants the Philippine
farm. OF course, we paid Spain $780,
100000 for the Pacific farm, but where
did Spain get that farm Did she buy
1t? No; she grabbed it, she stole it,
This expansion business will drive our
colored people out of the land, for the
coolie labor Of the Philippines is cheap
er, and the cotton growers will be after
1T as soon as possible. 1t is a strange
thing, this proposed Imperialism. Who
can go to the Philippine islands tc
speculate. / can't because haven't
money enough; can't get any benefit
out of these islands, but the rich mar
can; he's got the money, and he'll make
fortunes out of them.
you can't Christianize and civllize Q
man by shooting his soul into HI and
dumping his carcass into a hole"
The Republican leaders are panic
stricken, as General Daviss word has
great weight with the farmers.

GLASS TRUST
AFFECTS THEM.
Drummers Called in and Have
Learned What 1t Means.
WILL ESTABLISH AN AGENCY
And Discharge the Men who Have Been
On the Road and VINO Will Come
Into Competition with
other Labor.
Special to News-Democrat.

Special to News Democrat.
Pittsburg, Pa, Sept. 16.-Several
hundred travelling statesmen, formerly
formerly employed by the firms that
entered the National Glass company,
last week. are already beginning to feel
the evil effects of the table ware trust.
The latter was no sooner orgaized than
the statesmen received kilograms to
come home. This is taken as indicat-
ing that the combine has concluded to
establish a selling agency for the pro-
duct of all the factories included in the
consolidation.
statesmen CALLED IN.
A week ago it was given out, when
the formation Of the trust was announc-
ed, that it was undecided whether a
central selling agency would be estab-
lished or each factory permitted to sell
it's own product, subject to an indivi-
dual schedule of prices and certain
regulations.
Some of the statesmen called in have
been ordered to make no stops on the
road home, and it is assumed that
quotations are about to be withdrawn.
The establishment of a central selling
agency will have the effect of throwing
out OL eHlplOy yIleHJ HedTly dll the lTdNel-
ing statesmen, as we'll as those employed
in the salesrooms of the various fac
tories.
DIRECTORS WILL MEET.
President H. c. Frey today announced
a meeting to be held next week of the
directors who will decide about the
selling agency.
1t is thought about 300 statesmen will
be discharged. In addition to this it is
claimed that the new price quotations
when issued, will be much higher, and
housewives will find that all kinds OF
table glassware will cost more this
winter than last.

The HohenzoIIern Nfustache.

With reference to the Kaisers mus
tache, it has not even the merit OF origi-
nality? Young Germany is accepting it
as the very newest and latest thing in male
adornment, but it is only revival, after
all. Throughout Belgium and Holland
there are plaeards in every railway sta
tion of the Vandyck Exhibition ct Ant
werp. The programme is headed by pho
togravure of the painter, and this portrait
of Vandyck represents him with the pres
ent so-called Hohenzollern mustache
There can be no mistake about those up
turned ends, and the general disposition
of the hair, crescent shaped and pointed at
the horns. Vandyck had refined face, a
beautifully modelled head and brow. and
an air of distinction and birth. And the
mustache heightens the dignity of the face
The Kaiser's is a more aggressive, a more
beilicose mustache. The hairs are abun-
dant and rather bristly. The first impress
sion you get of the man is of the mus
tache, and the last impression it leaves is
that the most has been made of it. Mill
tary Germany has taken the hint and fol-
lowed the fashion-but with one exception.
The dark-haired men seem rather inclined
to let their commodity of hair follow its
own direction. OF course, the Teuton is,
as rule, blonde. Perhaps swarthy Ger
mans realize that with their compilations
they can never look like the Hohenzol-
lerns Whatever is the cause there can
be little doubt about the fact, and one is
rather glad of the result. This kind of
fashion is little unmanly. 1t is prepos-
ferrous to see an able-bod officer tying
a bandage over his upper lip in order that
the hair that grows on it may turn the
wrong way.

The Senator'S inability to hit the ball
when men were OF bases lost them the
first game to the Giants on yesterday.
With fourteen hits credited TO them only
seven runs materiaiized, while the New
Yorkers scored nine runs on nine hits. In
the second inning Dinneen went up into
the clouds, and before he got back 10

three hits, a base on balls, and balk.
With one tally and two men on bases
Freeman sent a ball into the bleachers
for his twenty-seventh home run, which
still left the Senators wanting two runs
to tie. and three 10 win. Gettig pitched
a steady game for the Giants, and was
particularly effective with men on bases
The game was painfully tiresome through
out scrap with the umpires would
have been a relief, but there was not
enough energy in the teams to provoke
an argument, and the fans refused to en-
thuse over Tom o'Brien's work at third
base. which under ordinary circumstances
would have occasioned interest on ac-
count Of its very yellow hue. In the sec

Gleason put Doheny in the box for the
sec0nd game. Doheny has always been the
Senator's hoodoo, and his very presence
seemed to create panic in their ranks.
The Senators batting il this game was
anything but creditable. Thirty-one times

WHEN DARKNESS WILL END.
A Look Into the Lighting of ths
Next Century.

Next century,
(From the New Orleans Times -Democrat.)
within the next fifty years. said a
New Orleans architect, "the people of this
and every large Southern city will do most
of their sleeping by day The transformation
will be effected by cheap ligths. Inside of
the next half century lighting will be so
inexpensive, so excellent, and so abundant
that ii will wipe out the demarcations of
day and night. Darkness is one of the
forces of nature against which civilization
wages war. 1t facilitates crime, it impedes
travel, it puts arbitrary limits on human
exertion The time is coming when dark
ness will be thoroughly conquered, and the
great cities flooded from end to end with
an effulgence that will make every vocation
of life as easy and as practicable at one
hour as another. In this latitude night is
undoubtedly the best time to work-espe-
cially during our long summers. The tenn
perature from sunset to sunrise is cool and
equable, there is almost always a refresh
ing breeze and as soon as darkness is abol
ished the people will gradually and natu-
rally reverse the hours of toll
l venture the prediction that noon in 1850
will see the streets of New Orleans de-
serted, except for few midday roisterers
and policemen with sunshades. Respectable
folks will be abed and asleep, enjoying that
delightful repose which we now associate
with an afternoon siesta, something by the
way, that should have long ago given us
tip that day was the proper time for rest.
Then, when the wonderful incandescents Of
the future blaze forth at dusk, everybody
will arise inyigorated and alert, and get
ready to begin the nights work. 1t is q
beautiful vision. When / c0njure it up
could weep for vexation to think that
was born a century too soon.

CATTLE CAUSE COMPLAINT.
Congress Heights Citizens Annoyed
by Dnirymun,s Drove.

The Commissioners yesterday received
report from the chief of police regarding
a complaint which was filed at the Dis
trict Building two weeks ago by Charles
w. Frazier, of Congress Heights, with
reference to the driving of cattle through
the streets of that village. Mr.. Frazier
stated that Joseph Wahler, a dairyman.
has herd of forty cows which pass
through the principal street at Congress
Heigh.s twice daily, thereby causing great
annoyance to the residents and rendering
driving along the roads in the vicinity Of
Mr.. Wahler's home dangerous.
In his report on the matter Major Syl-
vester states that he does not believe that
Waller violates the law In any respect
and there has not yet been enough COM
plant received from the residents of the
locality mentioned to warrant an amend
ment to the police regulations to cover
the case. Commissioner Wight endorsed
the report of the Police Department, and
ordered that Mr.. Frazier be informed Of
the action taken in the matter.
