The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1899-01-05

Senator James K. Jones, of Arkansas
in an interview in Chicago, on Monday
responded to various questions and we
quote as follows:
1.-THE Democratic party is as firmly
for free silver today as it ever was. II
has abandoned none of its principles
and the platform in 1900 will practically
be the same as it was in 1885 The
Democratic party always has been op'
posed to trusts, but the silver issue W II
not be shelved for the sake of making an
exclusively antitrust platform.
"Bryan? Well, if the convention was
held today he would be nominated
unanimously, but | am neither o
prophet nor the son Of prophet, and
cannot tell what may happen in two OIL
three years. Mr.. Bryan has not lost
anv strength. He is as strong as he was
in 1896.
Mr.. Jones does not think "ex pansion'
will be an issue before the national con-
vention in 1900, believing it will be
settled and out Of the way by that time,
He did not care to express his own
personal views but said there were in
Congress both Democrats and Republi-
cans opposed to it.

MANSFIELD, Mo, Jan. 4.-The ninth
and first successful attempt at train
robbery on the line of the Kansas City.
Fort Scott ana Memphis route occurred
near Macomb, a small station five miles
east of this point.
One of the robbers got aboard the
Eestbound train at Norwood, the first
station east OF Macomb, paying his fare
to Macomb aud compelling the train to
stop there. 10 was immediately boarded
by FIVE or six masked men, who. cover
ing all members of the train crew with
Winchesters aud revolvers. compelled
the engineer aud fireman to cut loose
from the remainder of the train. The
mail, baggage and express cars were
then run up the line about two miles
and stopped in a lonely cut, where
Engineer Calender was placed in front
of the robbers and forced to break open
the door OF the express car.
Afterward he was placed in front of
the foremost robber and together they
entered the express car, covering South.

ROW OVER SHERIFPS.
Two May Claim the Office In
Cuyahoga
DIssENsION IN MANY COUNTIES
Mcconnell, Reelected Io Cuyahoga,
Placed Guards on Duty, should sasi,
the County Commissioners Appointee,
Try to obtain Control by Force.

CLEVELAND, Jan. 4.-Cuyahoga coun-
ty may have two sheriffs today. Mon
day sheriff Mcconnell, who was re-
elected, was sworn in. Tuesday the
county commissioners appointed ex.
County Recorder Fred Saal as sheriff.
Last winter the state legislature changed
the time Of the beginning of the sher.
IFS terms from Jan. to the first Mon.
day in September. County Solicitor
Kaiser and the attorneys of Sheriff Nc
Connell claim that the change does not
begin until two years hence. Some OF
the state officials hold that it goes into
effect Immediately.
Confusion and dissension ON the sub
ject have arisen In nearly every county
in OHIO, the election of sheriffs having
been held throughout the state last fall.
Mcconnell declared that he will keep
possession of his Office and its records
at all hazards until the courts render a
decision and he has placed deputies on
guard to prevent Saal from obtaining
control by force or surreptitiously.
AKRON, Jan. 4.-Three men now
claim to be sheriff of Sumner county,
although William Williams, who has
just finished his term, has the ten points
OF possession. The county commits
sioners decided to disregard the opinion
of Prosecuting Attorney Wanamaker
and appoint Simon M, Stone for the in
terim of eight months, which Wana-
maker claimed did not exist. Stone has
forwarded his bond to Columbus, will
demand possession of the Office and on
refusal will bring quo warranto pro-
aeedings. Sheriff.elect Frank Kelly has
demanded the Office Tor himself on the
ground that the law is unconstitutional.
Kelly and Stone are Republicans and
Williams is Democrat.

number of the deaths both IN the camps
and in the field. It Is testified to me,
and the investigating commission have
the same testimony within their reach II
thew desire It, that healthy men who
ate of this stuff could not retain it in
their stomachs, and an examination of
the stomachs OF the dead bodies Of a
number of soldiers whose last illness de
veloped unusual symptoms, showed
that the mucous lining Of the stomach
had been eaten through by poisonous
chemicals or by something the effect Of
which was similar to poison.
"Now, have said before, and / want
to say it again, that IL was not only an
act of the most extravagant folly, bnt
one which threatened the lives of the
soldiers, to send this so.called refriger.

doubtedly injected chemicals into it for
preservative purposes, which were dele
terious to the health and life of the
men,"
DI. Dsly, of Pittsburg, gave evidence,
as did others, that the odor of these
meats was almost exactly similar to that
of body which had been preserved for
some time by the process of embalm-
ment. The idea of sending such canned
meats to southern camps in Cuba and
Porto Rico was certainly piece Of folly.

Attorney General Monnett Filed n Petit
tion In state Supreme Court.
COLUMBUS, Jan. 4.-Attorney Gen.
eral Monnett filed in the Ohio supreme
court petition to oust the National
Biscuit company from doing business as
trust in this state. The petition re-
lates that complaint has been made to
him by wholesale grocers regarding the
methods of the trust, which he holds is
contrary to the Ohio anti trust law.
1t is claimed that other manufacture
ers are kept out and grocers forced to
pay exorbitant prices. 1t is stated that
the price charged for crackers is equal
to that of bushel of wheat The at
torney general claims that the biscuit
company is capitalized at 500, 900, 900,
but only has $4,000 900 in the business.

| MANILA, Jan, 4.-Advices rceaived
from noilo said the rebels, at a meeting
Saturday, ratified the action Of the dele
cation which assured the Americans
they might lapd unarmed, bat that IL
the latter landed armed the natives
| would be uncomfortable.
IL was further said that every prepa-
ration was being made for resistanos
| upon the part of the rebels and that re-
| Inducements were arriving from Me-
| gros and the neighboring islands in
spite of the efforts of the United States
| cruiser Baltimore and the gunboat Ari-
zona to scare them with searchlights
The Spanish gunboat FL Cano was still
| at Iloilo, but as her status was not de-
| fined she had not been molested. It
was understood that she was destined
| to go to Zamboangan, town of the
Philippine islands on the southwest ex-
tremity of the island of Mindanao.
The American troops were restless.
The rebels were drilling ON the beach,
evening aud morning, in full view Of
the American expedition, which was
still afoat.
The California volunteers were en-
barked on four transports at Manila.
A dispatch from Washington said in
part:
The news received in Washington rel
garding the attitude of the rebels and
natives Mt Lloilo ard vicinity was simi-N
lar IN edect to that reported i'll the
press dispatches. The situation, Of
ficials said, showed that the relations
between the Americans and those with
whom they were dealing were much
strained and would require tact and for
bearance on the part of both to avoid
collision. 1t was also said that the in
formation which had been received here
did not indicate that General Miller
had landed with the American troops
General OTIS reported the approach
ing meeting of the so called Filipino
parliament, which is to gather, pre-
sumably at Malalos, about 20 miles from
Manila, on the island of Luzon, tomor-
row. A good deal of interest is at
tached to this meeting, as General Otis
reported that by the attendance the
strength of Agninaldo's party can be
gauged.
That this is waning rapidly is not
doubted, and General Otis feels that
when the attempt is made to convene
the parliament it will be found that
Aguinaldo has lost his control of the
majority and cannot command even
working coalition. Such q state OF af.
fairs would tend to make easier the task
of the military authorities Of the United
States of establishing peacefully tenn
porary form of government for tho
Philippines that will command the sup
port Of the people and receive the APP
proval of the civilized world.
General Otis had not yet published
the proclamation by President kcKin-
ley, which was cabled from Washing
ton to him about a week ago. Feeling
full confidence in his Judgment the
officials here were not disposed to ques-
ton his withholding the proclamation
from the Filipinos.

1t is said that death and taxes are the
only sure thing in this life; and Judging
by ths'enormous estimates given by
Secretary Gage OF the treasury at Wash.
ington, the American people are likely
to realise soon and to the full, the
tax part OF the twin burdens. The
people of Europe are being generally
taxed--to death. 1t looks as II we would
soon catch up with these foreign lands
SO loaded down with taxation In every
conceivable shape.

The Bankers Association are trying
to have Congress legislate and retire the
greenbacks, and give their institutions
the privilege to issue Thousand mil.
lions or more Of bank notes based upon
"bank assets" prepared by the bankers
themselves. All this they demand in
consideration Of liberal contributions in
the campaign of 1896. The shrewdest
politicians however, are afraid Of the
people in case Congress should perpe'
trate such q crime, and are trying to
dodge and evade the que; ton.
