ALL IMPERIALISM Is THE SAME.

John Morley, the English statesman,
thus strikes home at England and
America:
First, you push on into territories
where you have no business to be and
where you had promised not to go,
secondly, your intrusion provokes re-
sentiment, and in these wild countries
resentment means resistance; thirdly
you instantly cry out that the people
are rebellious and that their act is re-
bellion (this in spite of your own assur-
ance you have no intention Of setting up
a permanent sovereignty over them);
fourthly, you send force to stamp out
their rebellion; and, filthy, having
spread bloodshed, confusion and an
archy you declare. with hands uplift-
ed to the heavens. that moral reasons
force you to stay. for, If you were to
leave, this territory would be left in a
condition which no civilized power
could contemplate with equanimity or
composure-"

ALL HONOR TO MACRUM.

All honor to Macrum. In these days of
pulling British toadying by monarchial-
loving government officials it is refresh
ing to find one man in the consular SER
vice, who had the manhood and the dig
nifty of an American to spurn the insult
ing position of British attache, to aid
in subduing God-fearing, liberty-loving
freemen of South Africa.
Macrum comes from sturdy Ameri-
can stock of Scotch-Irish ancestry. He
and his have been Republicans of the
deepest dye and his action at Pretoria
demonstrates that all the Republicans
do not propose to lose their manhood
and standing at the behest of an En-
glish toadyist like Hay, so sunken in
monarchial mire asto insult the people
by asking law creating knee breeches
uniform for consuls.

cruching, royalty loving elements are

Mr.. Snyders bill for the government
of Canton provides for a commission
to consist of four members, to be APP
pointed by the mayor and the probate
judge of the county. If the advocates
OF this measure are sincere in their be-
lief that it is for the best interests of
Canton to have a commission to con-
troll the citys affairs, why not let the
people elect this commission? Why
should such commission be appointed by
the mayor and the probate Judge? Is
it probable that these two officials could
or would select better men than the peo-
pie would elect? If we must have a
board of commissioners for Canton, let
the people elect them.

WANTS EARLY PRIMARIES
Held In Stark County to Name Con-
gressional Delegates.
STARK WANTS SAME THING
with Reference to Columbiana and the
Politicians Are Throwing Bouquets
at Smith In order to Divide
TayI, RS Home Delegation
The situation.

Ed King, of Lisbon and Washington,
private secretary of Congressman r.
w. Tayler, is in the city looking into
the chances of his chief. He is endeav-
oring to have the Stark county pri-
maries held early. King was seen with
reference to the story published in the
Youngstown Vindicator and reproduced
elsewhere in this issue. about trouble
between him and State Treasurer Cam
eron. King said:
1T is a lie, out of the whole cloth.
There was no such thing thought of,
even for an instant. No one wanted
Cameron to resign. 1 am in charge of
the committee work as secretary, and
will be until the close of this canvass.
AS a new committee and officers will
not be selected until the meeting of
the ratification committee held to rat
ify the nominations of the candidates,
will remain secretary until the fight
is entirely over.
LAS for the method of selecting the
delegates by townships and the sue
that is method that has been in vogue
in that county for 20 years.
1.-THE Australian ballot was adopted
in accord with the suggestion, of the
ratification convention last year.
1t is understood from sources outside
of Mr.. King that Judge p. M. Smith,
of Wellsville, is considering coming out
as a candidate. Smith is the most dan
gerous man that has been suggested
against Tayler. If he is a candidate he
will probably divide the Columbiana
county vote which would mean the de-
feat of both. 1t is thought that Smith
is receiving secret assurances from GER
tain quarters in Stark county to induce
him to be a candidate. Not much de-
pendence can be placed in these prom
ises for as soon as Tayler is out of the
race a flood of candidates will deluge
the party.
1t is understood from this end of the
line that the program mapped out by
the brains of this section is to have the
Columbiana county primaries before the
stark county, encourage smith to be a
candidate, cut Tayler's throat and say
that he is out of the race because Of a
divided home delegation. Smith will
then be given short shrift and some
hungry, but cautious, applicants will
apply for the much sought for position.
And Stark has quite number of those
that hunger.

with the necessary number of deputies

per cent. of the fees UP to the maximum
sum of $1,000 per year.
Representative Smith. of Delaware,
memorialized congress today in res
olution which was read in the house.
Mr. Smith believes laws regarding the
desecration of the American flag should
be enacted by congress rather than
state legislatures, and his resolution
was to that end. An important clause
made 1t a duty of the governor to/for-
ward copies of the resolution to both
houses of the national congress.
Mr.. Arthur, of Union, presented bill
by which the owners of dogs are made
liable for damages done to persons, and
making it obligatory upon the owner to

Perhaps today, at any rate in a day
or two, Representative Peter Mackenzie
will appeal to the house to take his
street railroad franchise bill out Of the
hands of the railroad committee. The
committee had agreed to vote on the
bill but it was impossible to get a quo
rum. The friends Of the bill could not
be persuaded that the lack of quorum
was brought about Intentionally.
The expected hearing on the Painter
election board bill was postponed on
Thursday morning.
Representative Willis introduced a
bill permitting the governor to name
retired Ohio National Guard officers on
the state examining board, the duties
of which are to examine into the quail
ifications of newly elected guard Off

the members of the board shall be paid
