Barberton, April 2.-The streets ev-
erywhere are dotted with politicians.
Over 700 voters were polled last spring
and the Democrats elected every man
on their ticket. In the fall the Repub-
leans won decisive victory. At noon
today more than 500 votes were cast
and it Is believed that the total will
reach the 1000 mark, as a heavy vote
is polled after 4 o'clock in the after
noon when the working men quit for
the day. Both parties claim victorJ.
AS there are five tickets in the field it
will take the election judges over II
hours to count the ballots.
The school entertainment given in
Tracy hall Saturday evening, under
the direction of Miss Mary Glover, was
a success from every standpoint. The
hall was filed to its utmost capacity
and the program given was gilt edged.

tion with it are to be congratulated.

The guides on the tavern porch
looked at him and shuddered.

could frame an angry reply he was In

was asked.

REVOLUTION IN KENTUCKY.
Richmond Times (Dem.)l

Richmond Times (Dem.l
1t is mild statement of the case to say
that the news from Kentucky is serious.
A condition of affairs has been brought
about there which threatens civil war.
Goebelism is producing its natural and
logical results. Baffied in his attempt
to have himself counted in as Governor
by the local returning boards, Goebel has
organized his forces in the legislature and
proposes to have sham election contest,
between himself and the Governor of the
State, decided in bis favor by packed
legislative commission, aud, upon the
judgment of this packed body, he pro.
poses to demand the Governors Office Of
the incumbent. The statement now goes
out from Kentucky that the Governor
will refuse to bow to the decision of this
packed tribunal, and will hold ON to the
Office. This will make dual government In
Kentucky, and that means, perhaps, civil
war.
The New York Hersld's dispatches from
Kentucky represent public feeling
wrought up to pitch that 1t has never
before attained. The partiSsns Of the
Governor, who include large part Of the
conservative element Of the people, with
out res ..rd to party, tell him to stand
firm, and they declare that they will back
him in resisting Goebel's attempted usur'
patton with arms, il that be necessary.
The Herald's dispatch represents that

Philippine policy of the Administration
upon the ground that the Filipinos are
capable of self'government. We have no
doubt that Mr.. Bryan has SO contended.
If the Fifipinos are capable of self.govern'
ment, they are capable of measuring up to
Mr.. Bryan's requisites for becoming part
of this Republic. If they are not, then all
the talk he is making about imperialism is
meaningless.
The fact is, the Filipinos are not capable
of selfgovernment, although the so-called
anti-imperislists have constantly declared
them to be. They have contended that
they were more intelligent that the inhabi'
tants of Porto Rico, Cuba and Hawaii.
Now, Mr.. Bryan raises no objection to the
annexation that has already taken place OF
Hawaii and Porto Rico and the possible
annexation of Cuba in the future, hut
draws the line on the Philippines, because t:
"The Filipinos are not such people,"
1t looks to us like Mr.. Bryan has given
himself away on the the great issue of inn
perialism which he intends to raise in the
Presidential contest.

PACKING sARDINRs
M~v an Interesting and tmportAAi
New England Industry
In Conducted.

The packing of small herrings, or, a.
they are often called, American sw.
dines," 10 an important industry In
Maine In that state there are 30 fac
tories, which give employment to q
lsrge number Of hands during four or
five months of the year. The annual
output Is estimated to be of an average
value of 100000, and about half OF
this amount finds it's way into the peck
cts of the factory employees In the form
of wages. The fish are caught In
seines scattered all along the coast for
q distance Of about a hundred miles.
After the fish are taken In sailboats
TO the factories they are thrown into
strong brine, where they remain for
some time. They are then laid on iron
crates and conveyed to an immense
oven, where the crates are laid on re-
yolving shelves. After 20 minutes cook
ing the fish are ready for packing.
There are two methods of packing, one
In oil, the other In mustard. The
ground mustard Is mixed with vinegar;
for oil packing cotton seed oil Is used.
About gill Of oil is put into a can, and
then the baked fish from the ovens are
carefully packed into 1t and the cover
snapped on. The pans then go to the
sealer, who sits in front OF little fur
mace In which his soldering irop La
plunged. Selling the can, he runs the
heated iron around the cover, holding
the solder just IN front Of 1t, and seals
the can so rapidly that the eye can
hardly follow his movements. The
sealed cans are thrown into a bath OF
boiling water, in which they remain for
two hours. If any Of them leak the
tops will bulge out, and these 60 back
to be resealed. After the cans are
cleaned with sawdust they are packed
into cases and put on the market as
genuine American sardines In pure olive
oil.

WE sometimes see in the Democratic
newspapers reference made to election
frauds in Philadelphia, as an offset to the
frauds that are practiced III Virginia. There
is quite difference in the conduct, how
ever, of those whose duty it is to unearth
and punish the frauds. In Philadelphia
the Republican papers expose the frauds
and Republican courts are bringing the
offenders to the bar of justice In Virginia
the par isan press denies and condones the
frauds, and we never hear of Democratic
courts inhictIng any punishment on the Of
tenders We beg pardon There is one
instance. An election officer at Smithers
precinct, in Henrico county, was caught
stuHing ballot box, was tried before Il
Democratic court and sent to Jail for few
minutes, was given champagne supper
at the Jail, and rewarded for his ofense,
at the next meeting of the General AS
sembly of Virginia, by being made one of
the officers of the State Senate.

the FIELD FOR WOMEN.
Mines and Mining Has Been Added to her
Sphere of Work.
Denver Republican,

Denver Republican.
Practical mining does not seem to sug.
gest itself as field in which women can
achieve distinction, but the constantly in
creasing number of women mine owners in
Colorado and other mining States proves
that there is no reason why the women of
the future will not compete with men on
equal gound in this important department
of industry. Many mines in Colorado are
owned by women and some are even di.
rected by their feminine owners, who have
quickly adapted themselves to the work.
Two or three years ago school teacher,
while spending her vacation in Arizona,
located some promising claims, through her
knowledge of geology. She secured some
good specimens, sold her locations in Den
yer and then turned professional prospec-
tor. She has followed the business with
persistence and intelligence, an0 is now
making most excellent livelihood, with
good prospects of securing fortune. A
Seattle exchange recently recorded the
sale of two groups of mines located by
a woman in the Kalso, B. c., district. The
locations had been made by the woman
and she had stood by them for seven years
until she finally negotiated sale. She BE-
cured $l25,0O0 as her share, the buyers
being English and French capitalists.
Such instances prove that sex is no bar
to practical prospecting, and in few years
the report of the labor commissioner may
show the army of women workers material
ly inc leased by large number of feminine
mineralogists, chemists, prospectorg and
mine owners.
Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1900-01-18

committees have been formed to watch
Goebel and his chief henchmen, and that
these committeeman are prepared to
shoot them down as mad dogs upon the
first evidence they give of any contem-
plated overt act. surely Goebelism is do
ing it's level best to show to the world
how it can rouse and incense all the best
qualities Of the human mind and heat
whenever decency and order place obsta'
cles in the path of it's unhallowed and in
famous designs. Kentucky ia offering
Virginia a splendid object lesson to-day,
and Virginia partisans Of "boss rule"
may well study it to their infinite adyan-
tage.
The serious question in this case is
whether men who love order and advo-
cate submission at all times to the laws
can take any part in the Governors in
tended resistance to the Goebel plan oil
campaign, founded as it will be upon the
sentence and judgment Of the only con-
stituted authority that is to cit in judg'
ment upon the case.
The right OF revolution is an inherent
one, and il is one that the EXTREMIST par
tisan Of submission to the laws clings to
unyieldingly. Revolution is nothing but
resistance to the actual laws that be. The
right to it arises when evil minded men
have secured control of the law-makinR
power, and have 30 framed the laws. that
they outrage that natural justice which
the laws are intended to secure. All men
admit the right of revolution. The diff
cult question in the case is to determine
whether an occasion has arisen that JUS
titles men in resorting to the right Of
revolution.
We are not sufficiently informed con-
corning the details Of the Kentucky stu
alton to express an opinion upon the
question whether a case has arisen that
iustifes revolution. But when the laws
are so enforced as to deprive men Of the
results of their votes, openly cast and de-
clared, and the intention is announced to
rule them in spite of their wishes, by
fraud and chicane, surely every manly
instinct IN the human bosom Is moved,
and men may fight and die then, if at
any point in the course of the human
career. The Kentucky situation is a most
serious one, but it will not have been
brought about in vain, il it serves as a
warning to those who would attempt to
fasten boss rule upon Virginia.
