LENTz,s RESOLUTIONS.

Secretary Gage and the Standard Oil
Trutss National City Bank will be in
vestigated by Congress. The following
resolution will be offered by Congress-
man Lentz, of Ohio. That they will be
ably supported by him and his Demo-
cratic associates, in the House, there
is no doubt.
Whereas, it is a matter of general in
formation given out by the public press
that the secretary of the treasury has

revenue, amounting to about a million
dollars a day. over OF the custody and

SALARY GRAB.

The first bin to pass the Ohio senate,
this session, was one to increase the
salary of the lieutenant governor from
$500 per year to $500. When Mr.. Cald-
well was nominated by his party for
this place he did not serve notice on the
voters of Ohio, that the present salary
OF the lieutenant governor was made
quate, nor did he during his stumping
tour Of the state, even hint, that in the
event of his election, that between the
time of the assembling of the general
assembly and his induction into office,
he would ask the newly elected mem
bers OF the assembly to increase his
salary 10 the amount proposed in the
bin. When Mr.. Caldwell accepted the

ISSUE WAITING FOR THE MAN.

In this country 100 years ago today
two political parties were preparing
for crisis campaign"
The one believed in an aristocratic
republic, the other in & dcmon atic re-
public. The one believed thar I:e pub
lie officials ar rulers, tiL other that
pubic officials are se:,sn'. Til. one
believed in oriYl!eI', the other abb rrrd

Through the genius of Jefferson the
issue between the two theories was
squarely Joined and the verdict was
clearly rendered.
Today the issue again presents itself
But where is the man-(New York
World.
You need not worry about the man.
The Democratic national convention in
1900, will name man who will fit the
issue.

In the January number Of the North
American Review, DR.. w. j. Leyds, the
European agent of the South African
Republic, furnishes most interesting in
formation as to the views which the
Beers themselves hold regarding the
present war, the action of the British
government which they regard as re-
sponsible for it, and the situation which
Is likely to arise out of it. DR.. Leyds
resents the charge that the Transvaal
government took special measures to
oppress or infiict hardships upon the
Uitlanders:
There was no special legislation
against the Uitlanders. There was spe-
cial legislation regarding them in the
matter Of public education and that was
all in their favor. In a general way.
We make no difference between a for
eigner and burgher, save of course.
as regards the franchise. And every
impartial and fair mind will understand
that it was impossible for the South
African Republic to grant political
rights to foreigners. Why, the fran
chise in the Transvaal was denied by
friendly foreigners of our own race
to the citizens Of the Orange Free State.
Why should we have granted it to
Englishmen?

by the excuse that 1t is for the best
interests of mankind that a less civiliz-
ed, poorer and smaller people shall be
slowly absorbed by one more cultured,
richer and greater
England is welcome to this cheap
victory, If victory it may be called,
but let her remember that the day
when the Transvaal will be defeated
will mark the beginning of an endless
conflict in Africa. She will never be
permitted to obtain the power to which
she aspires. From that day she must
cease to parade as the champion of the
oppressed-of the Greeks, of the He
brews, of the Armenians, of the Firms,
etc, for on that day she will have
autocratic powers of the world.A

MILLIONS SQUANDERED

AS soon as congress ass se:nbles it will

Cured in his war upon the Filipnos.
He has spent 5000, 900, 900 in regular ap-

ed for a war of conquest. And he has
run the government $50, 900, 900 into debt.

would build many magnificent and use
full public works. 1t would, in the pock-
cts Of the people, contribute much to-
wards prosperity and well-being.
Why has Mr.. Mckinley spent this
money? Because he wishes to de-
velop the Philippine islands2 Because
he wishes to get coaling stations there
Because he wishes TO be in touch with
the trade and commerce of the far
east?
Manifestly not, because all of these
objects could have been attained by
treating the Filipinos as we are treat
ing the Cubans, and attained without
firing shot or causing the death of a
single human being or the desolation of
a single home.
Then why has he squandered these

very people of Manila have just shown
toward us?
Dropping all flapdoodle and hypocrisy.

Tische, who reside southwest of Ma
varre, had a thrilling experience
Thursday evening. The couple were on
their way home from this city driving
along the Navarro road. They failed
to hear an approaching train on the w.

stop the horse the train struck the
animal, killing 1t instantly. Mr.. and
Mrs. Tfsche were thrown upon the
frozen ground. Mrs. Tische suffered a
broken collar bone and several ribs
We're broken. She was otherwise severe
ly bruised. Mr.. Tische was also injured
but not seriously. DR.. Shelter, of Ma

anticipate serious results unless they
are internal injuries. There is

cident occurred and the railway COM
pany will be petitioned to place a flag

A NOBLE GIFT.

The donation of the Kitzmiller
property to the Canton Library
Association by Mr.. w. w. Clark, one
of Canton's most public spirited and
most generous citizens is a gift, for
which every man, woman and child, in
Canton, should be sincerely grateful.
1t is a noble gift. One, the beneficence
Of which is eternal. It's value cannot be
estimated in dollars and cents. The
donation came at a most opportune
time. Mr.. Clark is still in the prime and
vigor Of life and it is hoped that he will
livea full four score and ten. that he may
aid in directing the library which he
has so richly endowed.
Now, that the association has been
blessed with so rich a gift, and the
good example set there is no doubt that
others will follow the goodness of Mr..
Clark. This offers the opportunity to
the association to call the attention of
Mr.. Carnegie, who has been extremely
generous with other cities in contribu-
tions to public Libraries, to Cantons
needs in this direction. There is no
doubt that the generosity of our own
citizens would open the heart and
purse of Mr.. Carnegie, and that his
to the Canton library
could be obtained for the asking.
We congratulate the Canton Library
Association on it's happy beginning in
the new year. May it prosper for all |
lime.
