the naval mans visit. The Democrats
have been making 1t pretty warm for
the imperialistic cohorts on the Hay
tTauncefoote treaty, whereby the United
States builds the canal and pays for 1t
and then turns 1t over to England, and
as Republican congress and Repub-
lican senate did nothing to further the
Isthmian canal project there is a good
deal of explaining to do. No Republi-
can orator and no Republican news
paper cares to discuss the question,
seemingly, but the Democrats are not
forgetting to mention this betrayal Of
trust, and 1t Is getting bothersome 1t
is believed that Walker is ready to
make report, and 1t has to be edited.
And Mr.. Mckinley is good editor. He
must have edited Judge Taft a little
too closely recently, for he got off lot
Of the letter of acceptance, and there
may be smething of the sort in the re-
port that Walker is likely to make.
Every time the Republicans get cor
sort to ring In report, fixing the whole
matter up in a very plausible manner.
Why the Republicans did not go ahead
and make some definite arrangement
TO build that canal, that all the Ameri-
can people want, needs some explana-
ton. And there have been enough
appointed so that one Isl at
hand to say whatever is necessary to
aid in squaring the administration be-
4 little farther into the Anglomania |
business than was intended before the |
election, and 1t has to be made good |
somehow. Look out for an early re-
bort from Walker about something or |
,ther in connection with the construc-
lion of the canal.

The assault on Governor Roosevelt,
at Victor, a mining camp near Cripple

a remark that was entirely uncalled

The paramount issue in Stark county
may be summed up in the following
plank:
Whereas, there are no Democrats
holding office in the court house, and
Whereas, that is a darned outrage,
therefore be 1t
Resolved, that we go to work and
put some in there.
A farmer was observed, the other
day, to come in from Plain township
with several pounds Of nice butter,
which he sold at about 25 cents a
pound. Then ne bought some cheap
for his family and went
back home. That old skinflint will get
wealthy but he can't take any Of it with
him and he will be greasy enough to
make a fine fry in the hereafter.

cused of selling out to the trusts has
come out for Mckinley and Roosevelt

All such are paying the last half OF
