Especial Correspondence)
Barberton, May 15.--An ordinance
granting the proposed Baibelton, Doy-
lestown & Massillon Electric Railway,
of which Mr.. A. Il. Townsend is pro-
moter. Il 20 year franchise was rail
roaded through the village council last
night
The franchise grants Mr. Townsend's
company the right to build an electric
road from the west corporation line on
Wooster road to the Soda Ash switch,
n distance of about half mile. The
exact distance is 2,501 feet. OF the
1902 feet on both sides of the street
they claim majority frontage of
about 800 feet.
The ordinance provides that work
must begin within 80 days and com
pleted by next January. AIr. j. B.
Mech, who is Mr.. Townsend's attor-
ney, stated last night that work would
be commenced in few weeks. lust
how soon lie did not know, because
Mr.. Townsend Is in New York.
The Councilmen held conference
before the regular session, and when
Mr.. j. Il. Wbigam pulled the ordi-
nance from his pocket, it was imme-
diately seconded by Mr.. W. s. Robert
son. Little time was lost in discussing
the terms of the franchise. In fact it
was evident that the machinery was
all creased and ii went through
smoothly. Every Councilman present,
Mr.. Bryan being absent, voted for it
on all three readings.
Before the ordinance was passed So
lcitor o. D. EYerhard requested that
he be given one weeks time to con
slider and examine the legal terms OF
the franchise. He said he had not yet
seen the franchise and for that reason
he thought it was no more than proper
that the third reading be delayed one

GOOD ROADS PLANKS.
~epnniirnns snd Democrats VIII Ne
Asked to Insert Them In Thefe
National Platforms.

Wheelmen, through their national
organization, the League of American
Nheelmen. are to be factors in the ma
tional republican and democratic con-
sentions. The officers of the organiza.
ton have decided to use every means
to secure the adoption of a good roads
plank in both platforms. and they are
sanguine of success.
IT, work of securing the pianks has
been entrusted to the highway inn
provement committee. of which III. Il.
Fullerton, of Brooklyn. is chairman.
This committee has among its men,
bers the most experienced good roads
workers in the country. They are men
81 influence and will have no trouble
IN securing an audience with the party
leaders.
The decision of the l.. A. w. in this
undertaking is directly in line with its
policy to nationa,ize the good roads
movement. Previous TO the beginning
OF this year the work of the league has
been confined to municipal, county and
state agitation. The dignity of a ma
tlonal movement was reached with
the introduction of the bill in con-
gress. by Senator Penrose. of Pennsyl-
vania. in behalf of the l.. A. w. asking
for an appropriation of $4,000 600 for
highway Improvement. The insertion
of the planks in the party platforms
will further dignity the good roads
r'7yement as being of national impor-
lance.
The League of American Wheelmen
contends, and justly it seems, that
there are very few matters of more
vital Importance to the entire coun-
try than the one of good roads. When
a government official. instructed to in
| vestigate the economical side of the
question. reports there is an annual
loss of $500 100000 to the country be-
cause of bad roads, it certainly APP
pears the matter is worthy of the Sc.
rious attention of the political parties
and congress.
The l.. A. w. has been very success.
full in persuading agriculturists of the
economy of improved highways. and
there are some of the strongest farm.
ers' organizations in the country now
working in sympathy with the wheel.
men. These will be asked to lend their
aid to the request for the platforms
and will be potent factors in the re.
suits.
In past undertakings the l.. A. w.
has accomplished many difficult tasks
in behalf of wheelmen. and it will in
this case, if necessary. show its full
strength; but it is not believed this
will be necessary in proposition o,
such evident value.

ADoLPH PATTERSON.
ONE BRIGHT RAY.
me 'ause OF the People Has n
Chance Against That of
Special Class

1t is declared by Mr.. BRYAN that the
senate of the United States is not def
initely lost to the people, and that if
he should be elected in November with
the almost certain democratic gains,
the free silver force in the senate
would certainly be considerable and
IN the end decisive. The St. Louis
Giobe-Democrat, rabid gold standard
organ, comedies this much. and that
Mr.. Bryan's election will be serious
breach in the gold standard intrench-
ments and would give prestige to
further efforts to break them down
completely. The majority against sill
yer IN the existing senate is not over
seven. Of the 90 senator's whose
terms expire March next, II are re-
publicans, including one each from
Kansas, Montana. West Virginia, Ore
gon, Idaho, Nebraska. Wyoming and
Colorado. Two gold democrats go out
at the same time. The democrats are
likely to fill two of the three vacancies,
those in Delaware and Utah, and Bry-
ans election will bring in a democratic
vice president, who would vote in case
OF tie. Thus far the st. Louis Globe
Democrat.
Still further extending the idea. the
people of the western states have
reached the conclusion that they are
misreprssented in the senate. Coiora-
do, Wyoming, Kansas, Montana, Ida
no and Nebraska are represented by
six senators. who were elected on the
pretense of being bimetallists and who
voted for the single gold standard, the
placing of paper money in the hands
of the banks and the creation of
bank trust controlling all the business
of the country. There is no question
that the people of each and every one
of these six states are absolutely OPP
posed to the things for which their
six senators voted, and the evidence is
accommodating that they are taking ex-
ceedingly great care not to permit any
of the six to further misrepresent them
after next March. The change of these
six states alone will cut the gold ma
iority in the senate in two, without
taking into account gains that may be
made in other parts of the country.
Kentucky has already elected silver
man TO succeed Lindsay. In Louis
lana Caffrey has been defeated over
whelmingly in the primaries by sill
yer man. The review of the whole
situation will therefore appear to be
one of great hope to the democracy
and TO the cause of the people, and
that the election of Mr.. Bryan will
not be. as has been so often alleged, a
useless expenditure of votes and the
placing of a helpless incumbent III the
presidential chair. Success. however.
can only be attained by constant e.
forts to abide by unity of purpose.
There never has been a time in the
history of the country when the lines
have been so clearly defined between
the cause of the people and that of
special class
