-PoIiticai Notes.
Friday afternoon the Democratic
county committee completed arrange
ments for the tabernacle for Saturday
night the 9th, the date of the Helen
Cougar meeting.
There was some hitch In the arrange
ments for the tabernacle for the big
meeting and for awhile It looked as
though the committee would have to
go elsewhere with the meeting. Another
date interferred, but this was finally
cancelled late Friday afternoon.
The Democratic clubs of the city will
all turn out at Saturday nights demon
stration. There will be show of
strength in the number Of men in line
that will surprise even the Democracy
itself.
1t is not the intention to carry the
demonstration any further than simply
a parade Of the different Bryan clubs
in Canton. The big demonstration will
be made when Charles A. Towne comes
to Canton, and the committee expects
to know the date of Towne's meeting In
a day or two.
Then there will be a demonstration
with plenty Of red fire.
| John Warwick, of Navarro former
Cantonian, visited Democratic head
quarters Friday afternoon. Mr.. War
wick reported that the formerly rock
ribbed Republican district around Ma
| varre, Beach City and Wilmot was not
solid for Mckinley, by any means. The
| people down that way are not satisfied
he says.
Mr. Warwick told good story about
the recent Republican meeting at Will
mot, which was addressed by Congress-
man r. W. Tayler. The Republicans
| hired the band for the occasion, but
made no arrangements for paying for
the music. Now the band boys are hot
They have asked for the money, and
have been turned down. They and their
friends are looking for trouble.
The Republicans have a bunch Of
country meetings scheduled for Satur-
day night-one at New Berlin, one at

The Democrats have arranged for a
mass meeting at New Berlin, ON Sat-
urday night, the 9th, to be addressed

ex-Mayor Moore, of Youngstown.
A good story Is told about the way
Roosevelt lost his conductor at Ma
varre, on his way south from Canton
on the Wheeling road the other day.
Gov. Nash spoke first at Navarro, and
then introduced Roosevelt. The rough
rider started in to talk. and through
some misunderstanding the train started
before he had said more than a sentence
or two.
Roosevelt took 1T as joke, and turn
ed back into the car, remarking that
he'd gotten out Of that speech mighty
easy. But in the meantime, another
man had been surprised beside Roose-
welt. The other man was the conductor
of the train They had left him at the
uto NtA tel l. >~lS
q mile down the track before 1t was
discovered that the conductor had been
left behind
When the train backed slowly UP to
Navarro again the crowd had departed,
and Roosevelt couldn't finish his speech.
The Mahoning county Democratic
committee wants the Stark county COM
mittee to take care of the towns of
Beloit and Sebring, just across the
Stark county line. The towns are in
convenient to reach from Youngstown,
and the Mahoning people say the Stark
county committee can reach them much
easier. They are just out of Alliance on
the Fort Wayne road. The Stark
county committee will probably arrange
two or three meetings there the last two
weeks Of the campaign.
Hon. Henry Harter is taking his usual
active part In the Republican campaign
this fall. He rendered his services to the
Republican committee early in the cam
paign and he 10 being given plenty Of
work. Meantime the wise ones cay
that Mr.. Harter would make very
available congressional timber two
years hence.
Hon. E. H. Moore and J. H. Norris
the Democratic congressional candidate
addressed a large meeting in North
Lawrence, Wednesday evening.
