The ruling Of the Board of Elections
which deprives the local Prohibition

the limitations of the law, but the
principle IL wrong. Every either

minority or not, and no merely techni
cal restrictions should be permitted t,

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY OF AKRON.
FRIDAY, MARCH 23, 1900.
NOT OUR FIGHT.

"Thc situation with reference to the
Daily Democrats charge that some Ak
ron justice Of the peace has been di-
viding fees and pledging Judgments in
advance OF trial, is this;
10 The charge is true, and the
Daily Democrat knows the person. or
''t2J The charge IL lie, and the
Daily Democrat willfully and maici
ously concoctcd and made II for poi
tical effect.
The Democrat must name the man,
or stand posted before the community
as an assassin of the most revolving
and revlling character"
The above ill-natured snarl from the
Beacon of last night is only churc-
teristic attempt to unload some of the
dirty work of its own peculiar bench
men upon other people.
We have already made 1t clear enough
for anyone except nobson TO under
stand that the accusation made was
not made by us,-although ii comes
from source so far personally re-
spectacle and responsible, that we be-
lieye 1t to be true.
1t was not only made by a Republi-
can in good standing, but it was made
against Republican In good standing.
II must be so, for none but Republi-
cans are now candidates for reelection
as Justices of the Pence, and the
Charge is made concerning man now
holding that Office, and of course no
Republican would he permitted to be
candidate unless he was orthodox
aud in full party fellowship.
And not only so, but another Repub.
lican, also In good standing in his
party,-for he too is running for office,
said yesterday In our columns, over
his own hand, that Mr.. Rowley would
not have made the charge untruth
fully or unadvisedly, thus In effect
endorsing 1t and vouchins for its cor
rectness.
SO you see, Mr.. Dobson, that this Is
strictly family affair. all around
and the beauty of 1t all is that il /,
your family and not ours, and so yor
must excuse us for not responding tc

Last nights Beacon made thc an
nouncement, under scare heading
upon Its first page, that man namc'
Jones, of New Hampshire, had "re-
nounced all connection with the Demo

ling announcement proves to be true,
the Democratic party may as well dis

putting ticket in the field next fall.
For what can the party hope to accom-

The average intelligent democrat

The average intelligent democrat
will admit that the country is pros
porous, but they try to dodge the
issue by saying that there is an
awful time coming. Predictions as
to the future are always more or
less uncertain. 1t will be recalled
what awful times were predicted in
the event of McKinley's election
four years ago. The calamity how
lers of today were calamity howlers
four years ago. They were mistak-
en- then-may they not be mistaken
this year? We believe that vast
majority of the American people
will refuse to accept the uncertain
gospel of the calamity howlers.
We believe they will refuse to try
any uncertain experiments so long
as the present good times continue.

The last act of the democrats in
congress before adjournment was to
present a proposition to admit
sugar free of duty from Cuba and
Porto Rico. This legislation was
demanded by the sugar trusts and
would have had the effect of reduc-
ing our revenues $25,OOO,OOO, and
to have given the sugar trust a
bonus of $15,OOO,O0O. And yet
the democrats will go before the
people in their presidential cam
paign and pose as the only party
in whom the people can have faith
to save them from the trusts. There
is always a comicai side to demo-
cratic bluster.

THAT RAILROAD
Projected From Muucie Through This
City-What Muucie People
Think of il.
lMuncie Times, March Is.

Messrs. Cristy and Patrick, who
have been in Muncie for several days
comforting with prominent business
men and manufacturers, are railway
promoters only and do not represent
the Cincinnati, Hamilton Il Dayton
Railroad company as was first stated
Both, however, + experienced rail-
road men who have excellent reputa-
tions. The Muncie men told the pro-
motors frankly that much az Muncle
desires direct connection with Cincin
natl and Chicago. the citizens viii not
be willing to subscribe the amount
set forth in the offers so far sub
mirted. The latest offer was that a
subsidy OF 500, 900 be given by Cen
tire township for a line to be built
from Muncie to Richmond and an ad
ditional 800. 900 if the line be ex-
tended to Marion. The men claim
TO be able tomake arrangements with
the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton
company to run through trains over
that road from Richmond to Cincin-
natl, which would thus give Muncie
direct connection with the Queen
CITY.
At the last conference held between
Nessrs. Christy. Patrick and the
Muncie business men, the promoters
were asked TO submit their offer in
writing. AS it stands now. it is the
opinion OF those in a position to
know that the men want too much
for the benefits TO be derived. There
Is no company as vet organized to
promote. the Observation-Disclosures rail-
road project but the business men OF
the eitv think enough of Mr.. Christy
and Mr.. Patrick to deal with them
The road would be built with the
probable idea in view Of selling out TO
one of the big lines going through
this section of the state.
