Charles Coghlan's most successful

personality and talent. Miss Coghlan
is today without doubt one OF the most
beautiful and accomplished young act
resses on the stage, and her appear
ance here will be quite an important

THE PRESIDENT VOTES.

LANSNf SoIldTOIl 8S9ldI.l
President Mckinley will so from
Washington TO Canton, o.. to vote. This
is,a splendid example Of wha every In
tel!igent. loyal, patriotic American citl-
zen should do--vote! Regardless of what
political party you belong to, il you are
a patriot if you love your country, lite
institutions and its Nag you should not
fail to vote. and vote as your conscience
direets-as' you believe to be right. II
the president can go hundreds of miles
to@cast his ballot, you should refuse to
remain in the corn field, in mine or shop.
should refuse to permit anything that
can be avoided to prevent you voting.
It5is a glorious thing TO be an American
citizen. ard ii il far more glorious to
live up to the standard of truest Ameri-
can citizenship. The RICH; to vote lays
upon the individual the duty of voting
and the responsibility of voting right.
Every citizen is sovereign in hip own
right and in that respect is the equal
of the, president. He Yields the power
of a sovereign when he casts his ballot.
If he fails to vote he exercises no infil-
,ence. simply exists, permits others to
legislate for him.. to rule over him. Be
a man, real man. loyal American
citizen having the highest interests of
your country, your family and yourself
earnestly al heart Allow nothing to
prevent you voting.

ELECTION INTIMIDATION.

lMontezuma Republican,.
The penitentiary is the only fit place
for men who seek to control elections
by threats Of Observation-Disclosures
That is evidently a hit at Bryan Four
years ago he declared that IL Mckinley
were elected that starva ton would
stare the la boring man in the face. He
predicted all manner Of evil to the
American people and declared that We
would all become slavessto the money
power If the gold standard prevailed.
He did not starve anybody because free
soup houses fiourished in all labor cen-
tiers and these We're supported by public
aid. These We're the outgrowti Of DEM
ocratic legislation touching the tariff.
Bryan was. a party to 1t. The threats
that he mace four years ago and the
dire prophecies uttered We're as much
calculated to intimidate voters as If the
owner of a manufacturing plant We're to
lock up his esta blisnmsnt and declare
that there would be no more work un-
till these things were settled. II labor
ing men are to be unmolested let Bryan
be .nuzzled so that his reckless state
ments will not brighten apital.
