This sfliorninasbnt one OF the more
than hve hundred weavers employed
by the Lorraine Manufacturing COM
pany went TO work when the mill gates
were opened, and that man simply
worked couple of hours TO finish
cut of cloth. This being done he

met at 10 o'clock and spent the re-

the arrangements for strike organiza-

strikers are quiet and orderly.
EARNsCLIFFE STRIKE.
The strike OF the weavers at the
Earnscliffe mill at Olneyville is little
more serious than the one a month ago.
for at that time the weaving depart
ment was the only one affected. This
time the MANAGEMENT deemed 1t wise
not to run the mill nights, as in the
past, but during the days. the finish
ing and other departments Will rum as
usual, and unless the striking weavers
como TO terms in short time their
places will be filled by others.
The committee for the strikers held
conference this morning, and at noon
today called upon the management OF
the mill. Nothing resulted in the way
Of settlement.

LENfZ H. AS A LONG HE AID.
(Salem Herald.)

Representative John ]. LentZ Is
He is an able, fearless man. His ad-
vocacy of the peoples interests have
made him a few bitter enemies among
those who seek special privileges from
the government.
The Press-Post was once the great
Democratic organ of central Ohio.
Recently the Press-Post gained tenn
porary notoriety, and an immense loss
of patronage, BY mailing Dewey at it's
presidential masthead. Then this pa
per, which is edited in the business
office, went a step further and propos-
ed Dewey and Lentz with 'the peoples 8
will" as platform. When this was done
the following telegram was sent to
Lentz from Columbus:
'Press-Post dumps Bryan and the
Chicago platform and proposes the
peoples will as platform. Does
it meet your approval?"
Immediately upon receipt of this ME-.
Lentz wired back as follows:
II am surprised that the Press-Post
proposes Dewey and Lentz and do not
indorse either end of it. am for
Bryan for president, Dewey for admiral
and Lentz for congress"
All of which shows that Lentz
knows what's what. That little tele-
gram has added more to Lentz's nation
al reputation than all his honorable
career as a public servant.

THE sTRUGGLE Z sDED.

The Beers have ceased to struggle.
The inevitable has arrived and the
force of the British has proven too
strong for a small republic. Freedom
and liberty have no abiding place.
Independence is succeeded by serfdom.
Great Britain, the mighty empire. has
crushed little free state and VIII now
proceed to swell up. Other nations look
ed on while the crushing process was
proceeding, but none raised hand to
defend liberty. 1t was not expected that
the czar Of all the Russians would do
anything nor that any other country
suied by an emperor or q king would
come to the aid, Of republic, but 1t
might have been expected. some years
ago, that the United States would look
with favor upon any country. no matter
Row small or how remotely located.

tAs same circumstances, Substantially.

MIR. TAyLER'S LATEST.

When Congressman Tayler gave 1t
out that he was about to order a special
election in Massillon for the selection
Of postmaster. there was great
protest. The News-Democrat exclu-
| sively carried interviews with prominent
| citizens, some of them applicants for
the place, who said they wanted moth
ing of the sort. They declared through
the News-Democrat that they thought
a especially one who as
pired to a fourth .erm-cught to big
| enough and broad enough to undertake
the duties devolving upon him, with
out creating riots at the polls. Mr..
Tayler isn't on record as having said
that the suggestion of the Massillon
people was good thing, bit he has
acquiesced to the notious he saw ex-
pressed in the News-Demccrnt and has
made an appointment. He has select
ed L. A. Koons for the position OF
postmaster, to succeed Felix r. Shepley.
Mr.. Koons was not considered factor
in the race but was named by Mr..
Tayler to dodge the controversy be-
tween the others. In the attempt to
please everybody Mr.. Tayler has, as
is usual in such cases, pleased nobody
and the mutterings that come over on
the trolley must be fierce at closer
range. Doubtless Mr.. Koons will
make an acceptable postmaster but
the fact that he made no particular
hustle and yet won with ease, makes
the others feel sad. They would not
care SO much if they had been de-
feated by fellow who was really run
ming for it.

The farmers who have broad acres
will find something to set their thoughts
working in the following from the Oma-
ha World d-Herald: Farmers of Amer
lea! Two years ago you could trade
two bushels of wheat for 100 pounds OF
barb wire. Today you must yield UP
six bushels of wheat for 100 ponds OF
barbed wire. While everything you
have to sell is either remaining station
AIRY in price or advanced only from 5 to
13 per cent, everything you have to buy
has advanced from So to $50 per cent.
Do you want a change?

The Oregon election will be held next
Monday and an indication as to how
the wind political is blowing may be
had. Yet it must be remembered that
Oregon is a Republican state. On the
silver issue it was believed that Mr..
Bryan would have no trouble in carry
ing the state in 1896 but he lost it by
1000. The Republican national CON-
mittee used a great deal of money in
the campaign to controvert real public
sentiment, but there is no reason to
believe that the same thing will not
be done this year. The trusts have
come up handsomely with the funds
and Mr.. Hanna knows how to use
money to advantage, whether to buy
up a Cincinnati convention or to cause
artificial sentiment to take the place
Of the real notions of the people. Sc
400 much cannot be expected from Ore
gon at the coming election.

approval and which the council
promptly adopted as a good thing that
ought to be carried to a successful
conclusion. The resolution was, in ef-
feet, that the Western Union and
Postal telegraph companies place their
wires underground in the business dis
trict of the city. The proper place for
these wires is under ground. The tele-
phone wires are under ground and the
city Of Canton is not too far behind, the
progress of events to put its wires yun-
der. Every wire that is part Of the
fire alarm or police patrol system Is
under ground and every connection is
made but few to some of the boxes,
and these are being made as rapidly as
possible. Now the telegraph companies
should be made to place their wires un-
der ground, and at an early date. By
all means the matter should not be al
lowed to rest with the simple passage
Of the resolution, and Councilman Huff
will doubtless see to it that the purpose
Of the resolution that he offered is not
overlooked or the project allowed to
lie dormant. Already a great difference
is noticeable since the city and the
telephone company placed wires under
ground. In many places there was a
perfect network Of wires and when a
fire occurred 1t was with great difficulty
that ladders were raised and hose taken
to point of vantage. In fact the wires
made probable a confagration that
might otherwise have been easily con-

and with the same foe that our fore
fathers fought. But things have chang
ed since Imperialism has taken possess
sion of the faculties of the government
and nothing can now secure recognition
that does not meet the imperlalistic re-
quirements. Snobbery is the real thing
now, and freedom and the equality Of
man has no lodging place in the capital
city of this. the greatest republic on
the face of the earth. There is no
sympathy for a fallen foe If the victor
be monarchy Of power and splendor.
But the British have not gained much
in the estimation of fair-minded people
by defeating the Dutch farmers. Two
hundred thousand against 10000 was the
odds, yet the farmers killed or wounded
nearly as many Of. the British as the
total of the Boer army. In fighting
quality the Dutch farmer proved
superior to the trained soldier of the
effete monarchy. The resources Of
Great Britain were sorely tried in this
| war, which was thought to be small
undertaking. In the face Of this fact,
what would have happened IL England
had been fighting a great nation? What
would have occurred IL another nation
had assaulted the empire while the SOL
diers Of the queen-and about all the SOL
dlers that could be got, together-were
| fighting in South Africa?
| Great Britain was anxious. There
was a time when any proposition might
have been entertained, especially a
proposition from the United States. But
the proposal for peace did not come
from the government at Washington.
Liberty was being trodden under foot,
but did not suggest mediation to
the mind bent on empire. The opportun-
ity was allowed to pass and the Trans
vaal republic is no longer an indepen-
dent state. Its president is fleeing from
the country and its people are denied
| the right to govern themselves.

The civil war veterans who marched
the streets of Canton today, to strew
flowers on the graves of departed COM
rades, fought for the same thing that
the inhabitants of the Transvaal are
fighting for today-liberty. How can
the great Grand Army Of the Republic
even countenance any action that tends
to thwart those Burghers In their strug-
gle? And If the Grand Army Of the
Republic would speak, the president
would hear and liberty and indepen-
dence would be saved to struggling
republic. This is a good day to think
about it.

The Cleveland police force is actually
doing something. Unable to discover
the murderers who have been running
things in high-handed fashion the
police are now engaged in assaulting
drunken men and bringing them in
covered with blood, in an effort to prove
that they have encountered and taken
in tow a desperate character.

Indian Turns Horse Thief.

Charlie Riordan an Indian who has
been In trouble here a number OF times
in the past few months, went on anoth-
er drunk on the evening of July 22nd,
and stole bottle of whisky in China
town. He was arrested by Sheriff
Scott and deposited in the front room
OF the Jail while the Sheriff went to
supper. Mr.. Indian waited until the
coast was clear, then slipped out thro'
window and has not been seen since.
Thus endeth the first chapter.
The second chapter begins couple
OF days later, when Benz. Strandman
missed large sorrel work horse which
had been turned out In the pasture at
Georgetown. No trace OF the horse
was discovered until last Saturday,
when an Indian came up from Cherry
Creek and reported that he had sesn
Charlie there and that the runaway
had told him how he took Strandman s
horse to get away on. Charlie had rid
den the animal nearly to Cherry, ac-
eording to the Indian s story, and had
then turned it loose and walked into
town Sheriff Scott and II. Faulentine
started the same evening for Cherry to
try and catch the fugitive, but found
that he had long since flown. The
missing horse, however, was recovered

The last Eureka Sentinel contains an
extended account of the fire which de-
stroy ed the store and residence of B.
Berg at that place ON the evening of
July 20th The fire started in some
mysterious manner on the upper floor
of the building and was beyond control
before it was discovered. There was a
strong wind blowing when the fire first
broke out and the two blocks TO the
south of Berg building were saved only
by the hardest kind of labor. Forum
ately, there was an abundance of water
and the flames were finally stayed after
they had licked up the building where
they originated and two small frame
buildings adjoining it on either side.
The loss of Mr., Berg aggregates SIS, :
900, with insurance amounting to only
80, 300. The other losers are r. Sadler.

with 5000 insurance.
