The Baltimore & Ohio railroad has
decided that their employees shall not
enter politics but shall attend strictly
to business. This looks like business
and doubtless, in many instances, will
save a railroad employe from the ex-
periences of Mr.. Cobleigh, late of the
Danbury reform movement, but in some
instances will keep good man from
becoming prominent and honored among
his fellows. Still the failures in poll
tics are so many more than the success
ses that in the end the company has
saved more than it has hindered by the
order. There is no question but that,
from a moral standpoint, the company
has done what Is best.

The secret of the identity of the
who loaned 81, ,OOO, 900 to the
United States during. the war will never
be known, as the only man who knew
1t has died. There will be no great dis
appointment, however. He did very
well in the transaction. He loaned a
million, and, with gold at the premium
1t was, his loan was good for ten mil
lions. So what he got for his million
was ten millions, very fair interest. It
is lesson in finance, however, and
witnesseth the danger Of the dear dol
lar. Under a gold standard the same
condition may come about, without the
assistance Of war, though the measure
be commodities, which may serve to
disguise it.

AR. BRYAN ON CHINA.
Toiedo Bee.)

Mr.. Bryan very clearly states what
should be the policy Of the United
States with regard to the Chinese situ-
alton. None will deny that 1t is the du-
ty of the government to safeguard the
lives and property Of American citizens
In China, as 1t would be were they mem
aced in any other foreign territory.
This protection can go as far as the
use Of physical force against those p;k .
may be threatening American inter .sts.
But that agency must not be employed
for the purposssof acquiring territory
or to In any Way infringe upois the
rights OF the natives. AS Mr.. Bryan
puts 1t: 49,
For several years European nations
have been threatening to dismember
China, and II is not strange their ambi-
tious deaigns should arouse feeling OF
hostfljty toward foreigners. That feel

The Republicans are much worried
over the Ohio situation and Chairman
Dick spent some time at the residence
of President Mckinley, Tuesday, talk
ing over the situation. 1t is known
that Dick is not greatly pleased with
being set off the national committee,
where his opportunities are much
broader and put into the Ohio campaign
to save what looks like a lost cause.
There Is nothing unreasonable in the
Democratic claims that Ohio can be
carried for Mr.. Bryan this fall. Enough
votes were cast against the Republican
ticket last year to give Bryan the
state by a comfortable majority and the
Democrats are going to work to the end
that the state be carried by that same
safe margin. Chairman Dick realizes
that he has a hard task and has a
suspicion that an attempt is being
made to make him show whether he has
been operating on luck or science. If he
fails in Ohio this fall, with Mckinley
a candidate in his own state, he knows
that he is forever shelved as a politi-
clan, and without politics he cannot live,

County Chairman r. G. Williams
sends the News-Democrat the call for
a mass convention to select a candidate
for member Of the state board Of
equalization from Stark and Carroll
counties. This Is necessitated by the
fact that the state committee failed to
call attention to the fact that such an
officer was to be elected in this district.
The Republican county committee had
to take the same action from the same
cause. ipcAf

They are now quarreiing over the
authenticity OF the message from Con-
ger. There is way of finding out, and
it isn't the way Of sitting still and hop
ing for. the best. If anything is going
to be done about the indignities heap
ed upon American citizens, let It be
done and done adequately. The
slaughter Of American soldiers on Chi
nese soil need not have occurred If an
adequate force had been sent. The
American people are not in favor Of any
division Of territory over there and are
ashamed of the actions of their own
government in what possessions we
have in the far east, but they want
things to be done right If they are to
be done. If the United States is going
into fight, whether on a right or
wrong premise, sufficient force to do
effective fighting is necessary. The
people will not forgive anybody who
allows the Americans to get licked.

FOCKLER INCIDENT.
Mansfield Papers Descuss the
Matter at Length and Make
Apology.

Mansfield IL repentent. The News
prints what the News-DemOcrat had to
say Of the Fockler tarring incident and
says editorially:
"The man Fockler, with whose fanat-
ical doctrines we have no sympathy,
and whose venOmous tongue Is given
to abuse Of men and institutions far
above him, Is nevertheless right when
he insists that he should be proceeded
against regularly If he does or has done
that which is violation Of the law.
Nobody has a right to molest him, even
law, except the duly authorized officers
Of the law and then only through the
methods prescribed for the administra-
tion Of justice. But SO far as can be
determined Fockler has violated no law.
In that respect he is superior to any
who participated in the mob violence
against him. They were violators OF
law without excuse or justification,
for 1t is not to be imagined that any
Of those excited individuals who were
chasing about for tar 10 apply to Fock-
Ter, or who were clafnoring to hang
him." were at all moved by religious
considerations or, were In any wise
personal sufferers. bodily or mentally,
on account of anything that Fockler
had done. II all persons had restrain
ed that morbid and idle curiosity that
prompts Quitting In" and chasing after
that which promises the unusual OF
the sensational, and the thousands OF
spectators who assembled to gaze at a
demonstration for which, they had, or
should have had, no sympathy, had
quitely attended to their own business
instead Of helping to swell the crowd
the mob" which has been SO widely
heralded to the discredit Of the city
would probably have been simmered
down to about score of reckless young
fellows who would have been dispersed
by about dozen well-directed kicks"
The Shield hasn't given up the hitch
ing post fight and says: That inciden
has not added anything to Mansfield'i
good reputation abroad. Yet ther'
were certain ipAlIiating circumstance,
that made the Ss,obbing of ,Fockler lesi

ever, the incident is not one Of which
this city IL proud. Yet 1t was tn,
natural outcome OF the mob spirit cult

He has climbed the rugged ladder Of life without
other help than mis- own brains energy, Industry
and perseverance. He is now in his forty-seventh
year. Born farm IN Michigan. he was left an
orphan before his ninth birthday. Until his thir-
tenth year he worked on the farm and went TO
school Then four years were spent in the jew
eller's shop. Close confinement here injured his
health. and he went West" entering the service
Of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy Railroad in
June, 1872 as truckrnan IN the freight house at
Lincoln. Neb. The record Of his rise from this po-
sition TO a place among the most wealthy. infu-
