The picture of innocence! That's how
she looked,
But there was a price on her head.
All the people could see it-'three
Reduced from S." it read.
Philadelphia Press.
Has the Coshocton Daily Age run out
Of credit marks?
Alliance will show that she is some
pumpkins, next week.
Now, wouldn't it be a joke IL even the
fellows in the list wouldn't be called
upon!
If the fellows had just one good dele
cation to work on there would be less
suffering in Canton this winter.
Corbett announces that he. will retire
from the ring. The announcement is
superfluous. The public had already re-
tired him.
We no sooner get over the shock pro-
duced by the census man than the pres
ident of the United States concludes
to cut us out, too.
Canton's great Grand Army band is
enlivening things at the Minerva fair
today. 1t takes a lot of tootin' to get
up enthusiasm in local option town.
-
Roosevelt and Foraker are to talk
here in the near future. Chairman
Dick has not sent word, as yet, whether
they or the Honorable John E. Palmer
will speak first.
Youngstown vindicator: A letter has
been received from the Hon. Anthony
Howells at Massillon, and he says that
he will come to this city the last Of the
month to become full-fledged Ivorite.
Local men interested have said that
goat will be secured to perform the
lodge part Of the affair.
Chairman Dick has not drafted from
Carroll county very heavily for cam
paign spellbinders. He was very care
full to select but three men from the
county who will be permitted to make
speeches. The list for Carroll is as
follows:
U. c. DeFord.
Hon. H. ]. Eckley,
J. c. Oglevee.
That's all of them. Just the three to
whom are to be entrusted the task Of
explaining things for the administra-
tion. They are good speakers. The
Hon. u. c. DeFord is said to be the
greatest exponent Of Imperialism in the
county. and is Just as strong for the
tariff in Porto Rico as he was against
1t when the president said there was
a plain duty" to perform. He shouted
Criminal aggression" when the presi-
cent shouted 1t and now shouts "be-
nevolent assimilation" as the real term
for shooting brown men because they
want liberty. There is no doubt but
the Honorable DeFord will do.
The Honorable Harvey Eckley has
not been attending a school Of oratory
recently. and 1t Is with some degree of
trepidation the hall In which he speaks
is approached. He may have improved.
since 1t is necessary to say one thing
one day and another the next.
The Honorable Oglevee can spout well
on any side. 1t doesn't make any DIFF
ference which way the president jumps.
he can jump after him. He does pi-
rouette with grace and ease, and is very
valuable in campaign like this.
But there are others In Carroll county
who can talk. The Honorable John H.
Fimple got a job in Washington. in the
land Office. where there is little to do,
because he could talk some.
The Hon. J. H. Blythe was formerly
prosecutor Of Carroll county and knows
all about criminal business. 20 ought
to be able to work the Philippine policy
for all It Is worth. Chairman Dick has
been careful to draft the prosecutor OF
Stark county In this manner and there
IL no excuse for leaving the Honorable
Blythe on the list In Carroll.
But the Honorable d. o. Rutan ID
missing also. Is 1t because he couldn't
vote for Hanna?
