FTPPECANOE AND TYLER, TOO.
Old Landmarks Number Four BY John Danner Deals in Some
Political and Local History That Makes Especially Good
Reading--Older Citizens Will Recall Many of the
Scenes and Incidents.

All old citizens refer to the campaign
of 1910 as the most exciting and memoir
able in thehistory of the nation. Our
illustration of the Canton log cabin is
taken from a wood cut made by Captain
John e. Dunbar, go years ago. This
was the place used by the Wings in
1910 as their headquarters and for the
campaign speeches favoring the cleo
tion of Tippecanoe and Tyler too.
1t stood on the lot where the Hannah
block now stands, about midway down
the lot, and facing on Dewalt street The
front part of the lot was taken up with
a large walled up cellar put there some
years before by Thomas Cunningham,
who intended to erect q house. He was
carpenter by trade and had his shop
in the old jail building that stood on the
lot where the Yohe hotel now is, on
North Market street. The stuff was all
in readiness for his new house, when the
| old Jail (his shop burned down, destroy
ing the whole contents and as Mr.. Gun.

able to build on West Tuscarawas

The two-story brick house that was
occupied for many years by Alexander
Hurford, and stood where Mr.. Gun
ningham expected to build, was erected
afterwards by Jacob Schaefer the dry
goods merchant and brother of the lat
Louis Schaefer and Mrs. Martin Wik

A Bill to give the People Right Co Vote
ON Taxation -vhack at Interurban
Roads Legislative

Columbus, March 3.-With more than
enough now on the calendar to keep
them busy from this until the adjourn
ment of the session, If nothing but the
passage Of bills were taken up, with no
prospect of half or a quarter of those
now in being passed, and with work
dragging along at a snaips pace, bills
are introduced each week by the score.
Friday more than sixty went in-bills
Of every kind and description and Of
varying Importance. But few of them
will ever get beyond the committees
hands.
Another whack was taken at inter-
urban roads through bill by Mr.. Bart
low, of Butler. If it is passed county
commissioners will be the whole thing
in determining the rights of these roads.
| 1t provides that before a franchise shall
| be granted the road must advertise in
daily paper giving the intended mode
| of equipment, plans Of construction,
etc. The grade of the road must con-
form to the highway to be used, cars
! must stop at every road crossing,

measure replacing the old law regard
ing the securing of marriage licenses,
and doing away with many of the pro-
visions of the law passed several years
ago in which an applicant is required
to answer a long list of questions. This
will put the law where it was before.
Another bill by Mr.. Pollock provides
that the annual report of corporation
clerks shall be printed in all incorpor-
ated villages having a population of
500 or more.
An important measure by De Ran

stitution, and has for it's purport the
placing in the hands of the voters of
each county the right to determine how
taxes shall be levied within their county
and how the money raised hall be ex-
pended. 1t is practically home rule in
the matter Of taxation.

UNIFORM ATTRACTED HER.
Fool Woman Married a Crazy
Man Who Had on a Stolen
Uniform.
Special to News-Democrat.

New Orleans, La, March "a ro-
nance that may have tragic conse-
quences developed here today. A man
who gives several names and has told
a number of conflicting stories is locked
up at police headquarters. 1t is charged
that he impersonated Captain Clark, of
the battle ship Texas. which is now at
this port, and induced Miss Bertha
Warten of Cincinnati. to marry him.
Last night an excited young man
drove to the head of Canal street, ac-
cOmpanied by an undertaken and cof-
fin. He franticallY cried for a boat to
take him to the battleship Texas, saying
that he was Capt. Clark and in COM
mand. A boat was obtained, and
Capt. Clark" was rowed out. He got
aboard the war ship, introduced himself
and said he had come for the body of
Lieut.. Colson, who had died on the ship.
The officers of the ship, believing him
unbalanced, sent him ashore. Today
the story of Capt. Clarks" marriage
to Miss Warten became known.
Miss Warten came here with her
brOther-in-law, Alex. Aronson, of 10,
u, and IA South Canal street, Cincin-
natl, and Mrs. Aronson, and stopped at
the st. Charles. The man was stopping
at the hotel. He became fascinated
with Miss Warten. and sent a card to
her room. telling her he was in COM
| mand of the battleship and desired to
meet her. Mr.. Aronson looked up Clark,
| believed his representations, and Clark
and the young lady We're brought to-
gether. Yesterday at o'clock, after
a two days courtship, they were mar
ried by DR.. Percival at the Church of
the Annunciation. Today Mr.. Aronson
learned of Mr.. Clark's exploit on the
battleship last night, became fright
ened and made an investigation and
| soon satisfied himself that the man was
| either insane or an imposter. Detec-
tives were called in, and the groom was
| locked up in a cell. When the unfortu-
nate bride realized her terrible situa-
ton she collapsed and was taken Sc
riously i'll.
| At the police station Clark was iden-
| titled as j. j. Moyse, of Greenville, Miss.
| The general impression is that Moyse
| is insane. He says that he served in
the 5th MISSISSIPPI immune regiment
during the war and that he had OBJ
tanned his uniform while in the service.
When arrested Clark had many tele-
grams in his pocket. One he had writ
ten at the Western Union office when
Mr.. Aronson was with him. 1t had ep-
parently not been sent, but read as fol-
lows:
Secretary Corbin, U. S. A., WASH
ington--Today- welded and happy.
Texas Illuminated for the bride.

DASTARDLY TRICK,
Aniline Put In Laundry Work
to Ruin the Entire
Washing.
Special to News-Democrat.

Special to News Democrat.
Massillon, March 3.-One of the most
dastardly tricks in the category of vim
dictiveness has leaked out after three
weeks of silence on the part of the vic
tim of the outrage.
Messrs Siffert and Fox, two months
ago, started what is known as the Pearl
Laundry, located in Canal street. They
put in necessary machinery and at once
secured a good trade. About three
weeks ago one of the proprietors upon
opening the laundry in the morning
found a package containing collars and
cuffs, which was lying near the door.
The package bore the name of I'D. w.
Baker" and the linen was placed in the
basket containing the other laundry.
The entire lot was put TO soak in tub
of cold water. After a short time one Of
the washerwomen discovered the water
in the tub turning bright red. She no.
titled Mr.. Siffert, who Immediately re-
moved the goods and made an investi-
cation. 1t was found that the cuffs
marked I'D. w. Baker," which had been
thrown into the doorway of the laundry,
had been ripped open and filled with red
aniline dye. Had the cuffs been placed
IN not water llle enIlIe WASH WOulu nav I
been ruined. AS it was, hard work re-
moved the coloring from the laundry
which was in the same tub with the
cuffs.
Mr.. Siffert stated to the News-Dem
crat representative this morning that
he had been badly treated by competing
laundries since he opened his establish
ment.
"Of course, 1 can't blame any one for
the dastardly deed" said Mr., Siffert
but l have strong suspicious of who
did this contemplate trick. Had hot
| water reached the dye my loss would
have reached nearly 800, I can find nc

memory Of "Old Hickory (Andrew
Jackson) was still fresh, so that many
a hickory sapling was seen in their pro-
cessions.
Never from that day to this have
seen so great and general political ex-
element. Professions of both parties
mile or more long were frequently
seen, with bands of music. and great
platform wagons, with blacksmiths, tin
ners, threshers with fails, and trades
and occupations of all kinds were we'll
represented and at work. During this
campaign the Canton Independent band
was organized, which was the first band
ever organized in the county. II. j.
Nathnagle, who was a brother in-law
of Mrs. M. M. Herbst, of South Market
street, was the leader and instructor.
He composed a very popular piece of
music, known as 1.-THE Ladies' Recep-
ton" 1t was gotten up on purpose to
give a public reception to a band of
young ladies that were dressed in uni
form and represented the states then
belonging to the Union. These ladies
were in a large wagon that correspon-
ded with the band wagon, and was also
drawn by four horses. They made their
first public appearance on July 4, 1910.
The late George Faber was also a men,
ber of the Canton Independent band,
and was considered quite an expert on
the clarinet. The Democrats the same
year organized the Democratic band.
Both bands had fine band wagons built,
which were drawn by four horses, and
soon became familiar at all great polit-
| ical gatherings in the county.
During this campaign General Will
liam Henry Harrison, the Whig candi-
date for president, spoke at Massillon.
Tom Corwin and Salmon p Chase were
also at said meeting. The meeting was
held in grove little north of the pres

OPERATING FOR YEARS
On Crown Work and to Pay Would Be
Great Hardship to Dentists.
SOME REFUSE TO SETTLE
And State That They Will Make the Fight
in Open Court Against the Demands
What the Contention Is and
the Effect 1t Would

A dapper little fellow by the name of
Collins arrived in Canton Friday and
waited upon the dentists OF this city
with a request that they each contrib
ute of their funds to swell the exchequeI
of trust known as the International
Tooth Crown company. This concern
some years ago bought up a lot of pat
ents on bridge work in dentistry and
it has been fighting for these patents
in the courts for years. Collins repre-
sented to the profession that the su-
preme court had Just decided the mat
ter and sustained the cause of the In
ternational Tooth Crown company.
These patents were issued in 1871 and
expired in 1898. The company now pro-
poses to COMPEL all dentists to pay a
royalty on every piece of bridge work
that he has built between those years.
Collins submitted to each dentist in
Canton a plan for settlement on an ami
cable basis. The company asks $25 a
year as an office license and fifteen
per cent. of the gross receipts for
bridge work received by each operator
1t is further agreed to make discount
of SO per cent. for cash. Some of the
Canton dentists have been making
bridge work for many years and If they
4 are. compelled to pay up this kind OF
big bill.
Collins says that in case dentist
refuses to pay up suit will be brought
and it is the intention of the company
to proceed to collect for every piece
of work turned out. He reported that
some of the dentists were coming righ
up and settling without trouble.
None of the Canton dentists have a!
yet agreed to pay.
Mr.. j. F. Dougherty stated to News
Democrat representative that he fol
one did not propose to pay. Said he
"I belong to the Dental Protective asso
citation which is an organization O.
5000 dentists in this country, formed
for the very purpose of resisting sucl
demands. The association has a funC
of 100000 to fight with and If suit Il
brought against any member the as
sociation will fight the case. OF cours
if they beat us and get judgmen
against me or any one, we would hav
to pay it. Our association has neve
lost a case. The company has beatel
outsiders and if they go after those VIII
are not members now they may max
them lots of trouble"
There are about 10000 dentists in thi
country and If the company can get
pull out of each one it will yield a righ
respectable sum.

In those days the great strength of the
Whig party was in the southern states,
Georgia, L think, being the banner state
for Whig majorities. Kentucky was
next. The Democratic party was then
considered the hard money party. I
well remember having customers come
into the store and throw down gold or
silver coin in payment of some purchase,
and saying as they did so, THAT is good
Democratic money" The Wings were
branded as the rag money" party.
Truly time makes changes with polite
al parties as well as in other things.
In the times referred to the slavery
question was the troublesome thing in
politics, as is the liquor question today.
The first has been settled. and settled
forever, because it has ben settled right;
and so it must be in all great moral re-
forms. They never can be permanently
settled until they are settled right, and
the aggitation must be kept up until
that time arrives.
Sixty years ago we had the country full
of people who told us Slavery is a di-
vine institution and it never will be
abolished" but they were all false pro-
phets and their whole generation has
died out.
This is a government of the people, by
the people and for the people, and what
contributes to the best interests and
happiness of the many must and will
prevail. The bowling of boodlers and
politicians must all give way to the will
| of the great majority of the patriotic
voters, as they express themselves on
the many questions as they arise. The
| thing for any loyal citizen to do is to
inquire what will best contribute to the
happiness and prosperity of his fellow
men, and always support that, whether it
be popular with politicians or not. The
right must eventually triumph in a
! government like ours.

which has since been graded down. We
had no railroads in Stark county at that
time. On General Harrisons way east
from the Massillon meeting he stopped
a short time at the Eogle hotel (Hawks)
in Canton, and 1 well remember how
many of us young boys of that day gave
him a cordial greeting.
The Wings had quite a company of
young men mounted on horseback,
dressed in uniform, and usually on those
occasions wore white pants and dark
coats, with sashes, on which were in
scribed "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too"
There were about sixty belonging to this
escort. l was only II years old. Most
of the company were a few years older
On occasions of great meetings we usu-
ally had popular campaign songs that
were sung with will and often wound
up with
"Old Tips the boy to swing the fail
And make the Jocos' all turn pale"
The term Loco Foco" was quite pop
ular among the Wings as against the
Democrats, which originated by the ear
ly introductiin of friction matches in
old Tammany hall, New York
The Democrats also had some hard
hits against the Wings, and in getting
up great crowds at meetings both par
ties made wonderful displays; but the
tide was in favor Of the Wings, and
, General Harrison was triumphantly
elected and was inaugurated March 4th
1S41, and died April 4th, 1S41, having
ben president just one month. 1t was
over three days after that we heard of
1t in Canton. We had no telegraphs
then. The fastest means of communi-
cation then known was the stage coach
or express messenger on horseback.
