ol INFERIOR importance. Man Is
the master, money the servant,
but upon all important questions
today Republican legislation tends
to make money the master and
man the servant.
"The maxim of Jefferson,
equal rights to ali and special
privileges to none," and the
doctrine of Lincoln that this
should be a government "of the
people, by the people and for tn Q
people,, are being disregarded
and the instrumentalities of GOV
ernment are being used to advance
the interests of those who are ia
Il position to secure favors from
the government.
1.-The Democratic party is max
ing war upon the honest acquisi>
tlon of wealth; it has no desire to
discourage industry, economy and
thrift. On the contrary, it gives
to every citizen the greatest posi-,
BILE stimulus to honest toll, when
1t promises him protection in the
enjoyment of the proceeds of his
labor. Property rights are most
secure when human rights are re-
spected. Democracy strives for
n civilization in which every mem
her of society will share according
to his merits
"Republicans who used to ad-
vocate bimetallism, now try to
convince themselves that the gold
standard is good; republicans who
were formerly attached to the
greenbacks are now seeking an
excuse for giving national banks
control of the nations paper
money; republicans who used to
boast that the republican paying
off the national debts are now
looking for reasons to support a
perpeturl and increasing debt; re
publicans who formally abhorred
n trust, now beguile themselves
with the delusion that there are
good trusts and bad trusts, while,
in their minds, the line between
the two is becoming more and
more obscure; republicans who in
the past congratulated the country
upon the small expense of our
standing army, are now making
light of the objections which are
urged against a large increase in
the permanent military establish
ment; republicans who gloried in
our independence when the nation
was less powerful, now look with

tendent Charles Cock.

The census enumerators will begin
their work on the first day of June and

present in conference with Superinten-
dent c. c. Cock for the purpose of re-
ceiving instructions to assist them in
any contingency which may occur while

RODE TWO THOUSAND MILES
In Nine Days and Thinks He
Is Cured of COnsump-
tiOn.
(New York Herald.)

William r. Brown, of New York city
an alleged consumptive, Is a marvel
among cyclists. On the Merrick turn
pike, in Long Island at sos last night,
he completed one Of the most remarka-
BILE feats In the annals Of wheeling.
After 25 hours and 6h minutes oil almost
continuous pedaling Brown finished a
journey Of 1000 miles in such good form
that he was able to dismount and walk
to his training quarters without assis-
tance.
Though Brown had begun the trip in
expectation of completing 1t within
seven days. he encountered such persis-
tently unfavorable conditions of wealth
er and road that the most wonderful
feature of It was that he finished at all.
Even under the adverse conditions he
broke all century records from the elev-
enth to the fifteenth inclusive, and
established figures for the remaining
centuries Of the journey.
Over q muddy course the record
breaker rode the last a6 miles Of his

IMMENSE DECREASE
IN BUSINESS
Causes Reduction In Pay of Ft.
Wayne Switching Crews.
STRIKES THROUGHOUT COUNTRY
Given as the Reason of the Slump In Busi-
ness-Trainm master McCrea
Talks to the Local
Men.

Robert A. McCrea, trainmaster of the
Fort Wayne road, was in Canton Fri
day and called the switching crews into
the freight house, where he addressed
them relative to the immense decrease
in business over the road during the
month of May. He desired to show the
l6 men now employed in the yard
switching service, who have been max
ing II hours per day, and who have been
completing their days work in 10 hours
since the falling off in traffic, that it
would be better to take off the hours
OF each of the 16 men than to lay off an
entire crew. Mr.. McCrea simply sug-
gested this means of retrenchment.
Nothing definite from the company has
been decided upon as yet. The yard
crews seemed to take the matter philo-
sophically, while they do not like to be
reduced in pay. The reduction, If it
comes, will probably only be temporary,
but 1t is evident that retrenchment is
the order of the day. In conversation
with an official this morning, it was
learned that the decrease in the VOL
ume of business was due to a great ex-
tent to the strikes throughout the
country. The brick companies here
which up to this time have been very
busy, are doing nothing. There is
the usual depression of the times pre-
ceding the presidential election, when
all business enterprises are stilled for
the time being. May usually is a good
month, but this year the heavy traffic
fell off six weeks earlier than usual.

to the circuit court of Trumbull county,
has been handed down by Judge Davis
of the supreme court:
1. A lease to a person and his heirs,
executors and administrators, and con-
tanning no restriction against assign
ment thereof, is assignable.
2. A covenant in lease that If liquor
shall be sold on the demised premises,
the business shall be conducted strictly
according to law, is a covenant running
with the land; and breach OF this
covenant by a sub-tenant of an as
signee of lease, is, as between the
assignee and the original lessor, a
breach by the assignee.
8. Upon the trial of an action by the
lessor against the assignee for breach
of such covenant in which the plaintiff
alleged a breach of such covenant by
the assignee, through his subtenant,
and that in an action founded thereon
for the sale of demised premises to
satisfy a judgment for the sale Of liq-
uors contrary to law, the assignee be-
ing party thereto, and being served
with summons, and not answering
therein, the said premises were sold,
the record of the action in which such
sale was made is competent evidence.
