MECCA FOR VISITORS.
The ZOllinger Building Is a
Point Of Interest to
Canton Visitors.

One of the attractions to strangers
visiting Canton is the Zollinger building
corner Of Fifth and Market streets,
which is nearing completion, and which
will be coupled by w. r. Zollinger &c
Co.'S mammoth store. It's architectural
beauty, size and general appearance at
tracts attention, and visitors become
anxious to see the inside arrangement.
All pronounce it one of the most mod
ern, convenient and attractive buildings
they have seen anywhere and a decided
acquisition to Canton, and especially to
the appearance Of the square.

POLICE COURT.

George w. Keiser, of Hartville, was
brought to this city Wednesday after
noon by a constable of that village.
on the charge Of provoking Reuben E.
Fouse, neighbor, to a breach of the
peace. The controversy between the
two men arose about ten days ago.
Keiser and his partner rented a store
building from Fouse, and the latter re-
fused to permit them any conveniences
in the way of a pump or the cellar.
Fouse was arrested last week on the
complaint Of Keiser, on an affidavit
charging him with assault and battery.
He pleaded guilty and was fined by the
mayor. Fouse then retaliated by hav-
ing Keiser arrested. Both parties are
prominent men in business in that viii
lage and the proceedings and outcome
of the cases are eagerly watched by the
villagers.

Gotshall-Glsd News for
Canton People.

The fear and anxiety has been lifted
from the hearts of the relatives and
friends of three of the Canton people
known to have been in Galveston dur
ing the recent tornado.
Thomas p. Gotshall and Mr.. and Mrs.
III. X. Logue have been heard from.
Wednesday morning, A. Parr, uncle
of William Gotshall called up the News
Democrat office and said that the
parents of the young man had receiv-
ed telegram from him saying that he
was unharmed This lifted the burden
Of doubt from their minds as to his
fate.
A telegram was also received by How
ard r. Reed from his brother-in-l law, H.
! X. Logue, saying that though the city
| was in ruins both he and his wife were
safe. The telegram also announced the
safety of Mr. Gotshall.
| Both kilograms were dated the 10th
| and were not sent in answer to those
sent from here. 1t is evident that Mr..
| and Mrs. Logue and Mr.. Gotshall an

The Democrats of Youngstown be

paign that the Republicans seek to give

Congressman Tayler Is known among
Democrats throughout his district as
"One- Dollar Bob" and a good many
Republicans do not hesitate TO give him
the same undignlfied title, This is how
he earned It: Not long since the Welsh
strong element in the naturalized
voters of Youngstown, held an Eisted-
fod in this city.
One of the features of the affair was
the award of valuable prize for the
best poem memorializing Judge King,
one Of the most popular men in the dis
trict, who has recently died. Among
those who were called upon for contri-
buttons was Congressman Tayler. He
sent the committee one-dollar bill.
1t was returned to him with a sarcastic
letter. the author of which was
a prominent and active Republican.
From that day he has been known as
"One-Dollar Bob"
What made the occurrence particular.
ly significant was that Judge King had
charged Congressman Tayler with using
unfair methods to gain his nomination
when both were candidates.
The Welsh vote cuts big figure in
a congressional fight in this district, and
1t is reasonably certain that Mr.. Tay-
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1900-09-14

Ter will not get it. Several prominent
Republicans are openly opposing him on
account of the Eistedfod affair or for
other reasons.
Hon. j. II. Morris, the Democratic
nominee, is an immensely popular man.
The nomination was handed him with
out a contest, and even Stark county,
the seat of perennial dissatisfaction, is
solidly for Morris. Mr.. Morris has
three times been elected library trus-
tee in Youngstown, and each time has
increased his majority. His first ma
jority was 5S5 and his last 700. The
town is from 600 to 1900 Republican.
Mr.. Morris is of Welsh descent, and mas
many warm Republican friends. He
says he will certainly carry the city
against Tayler, and believes that he will
carry the county.

And the Pen Is Worked in the Opera
tions Of Making Nine Dollars.
FIGURES CUT FROM GENUINE
Bills Of the Denomination of Ten Dollars
and Then Pasted on the Bills OF the
One Dollar Denominations
The original Ten Not
Destroyed.

Cashier L. A. Loichot, of the First
National bank, stated Wednesday that
@ number of bills were floating about
the city that are bogus.
He showed News-Democrat man a
bill that had been presented to the
First National bank by customer.
The bill had been raised from 81 bill
to a $40 bill. The work is extremely
clever and only those accustomed to
examining bills as to their genuineness
will detect them.
Mr.. Loichot said that four bills of the
sort had found their way into the bank
from customers since Tuesday and he
thinks the work has just got fairly
started. The method employed is to
use comparatively a new 81 bill and
by pasting $40 over the figures and do
ing some clever pen work, the counter
felt is made to look very much like the
genuine.
Other banks have received bills OF
the sort, and the George D. Harter bank
furnishes clue to the method that
carries out the notion of it entertained
by the people at the First National
bank.
A bill came into the George d. Harter
bank Wednesday morning that was mi
rus the figure 10. 1t was very evident
that 1t had been cut out in order to Sc
cure 1t to paste 1t onto 81 bill. 1t does
not destroy the $40 bill to mutilate 1t In
that fashion and banks will take 1t then
from regular customers. Cashier Mack
said that he had known for about two
weeks that something of the kind was
being attempted, from the appearance
OF several bills that came to the bank

The house owned by George Studer,
near the Zion church was burned to
the ground on Wednesday of this week.
The house was built by Reuben Shoyer.
Mrs. Catherine Way lived in the house
all alone. Mrs. Way had kinGled fire
In the outbuilding, and by some means
let spark fall In the wood box among
some shavings, which caused the fire.
She called for help, but too late to save
anything except her household goods,
which were nearly all saved. Mr.. Stu
der had the house insured for 500 in
the Pike Township Insurance company.
The total loss was about $1,000.
Mrs. Way removed her goods to the
home Of Theodore Palmers, where she
she will remain for few days until
she can find home elsewhere.
