and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Notes.
Special to the Register.
CAMBRIDGE, O., September 3.-The
strike situation had a depressing effect
upon the celebration of Labor Day in
Cambridge. The parade was formed at
9 a.. m. and included all labor organ
izations, city officials, police force, mer-
chants floats, four bands and two drum
corps. At at the picnic in Taylor's
Grove. speeches were made by W. b.
Paul, of Columbus; Rev. w. T. Mill
gan, Mayor Baxter, ex-Mayor Luccock,
and others of this city. The usual CON
tests took place and nothing happened
to mar the peacefulness of the occa-
sion, except a slight shower late in the
afternoon.
George Nicholson's house or Clark
street was entered by burglars last Sat
urday night and several dollars taken
from a suit of clothes. A suspect was
arrested. but was released because no
evidence could be secured against him.
Five new rural free delivery routes
were inaugurated at the Cambridge Of
flee yesterday morning, making six in
all. All the country surrounding Cam
bridge for a radius of ten miles is now
benefited by the service.
Rev. j. A. Selby has resigned the
pastorate of the Methodist Protestant
church in this city, after five years
service.
Mrs. r. w. Lindsey has returned
from Mountain Lake Park.
Marshal Wilkins intercepted a band
of gypsies Sunday night and rescued a
fine bird dog which had been stolen in
Newark. Upon payment of the costs
in the case, $3.50, the party was re-
leased.
The Cambridge schools opened Mon
day, September 2, with an enrolment
close to LOO. At the South Side build
ing half day sessions will be held until
the addition to it is completed October
1. Mr.. A. B. Gregg, of Cornell, has
been employed as third assistant prin-
cipal in the high school, which will be
housed in it's own building next year.
Rev. j. r. McFadden, the new assist
art pastor of the NJ. E. church, iii this
city. is drawing large audiences during
the absence of Rev. r. R. Pope in Flu
rope. For a young man, Mr. McFad-
denis sermons are of wonderful power.
Everything was closed tight in Cam
bridge Labor Day. Even the newspa-
pers failed to issue.
Everything is quiet at the sheet mill
and all eyes are turned toward the tin
plate plant. Four men who came into
town Saturday night were taken to
Amalgamated headquarters and given
a severe cross-examination. The per-
Torrance was repeated Monday and
the opinion is spreading that the strik-
ers are going a little bit too far.

guns. from which blank charges may

with the Retvizan, so far as he has
seen her.

Since Mrs. Nation has not been Of

is no law to prevent a respectable old
lady from lecturing saloon and dive

as she was permitted TO give for sew

Com hotels to saloons and from

INA ANNENATION.

Since the sugar and tobacco trusts
are opposed TO Cuban annexation there
is no danger that the administration
will use fcrcible or any other mean3
to accomplish that end. What the
truss say goes" with Mr.. Mckinley,
who owes them his political existence
and fully appreciates the fact. Nor
is there any danger Of anyone at
Washington attempting to eoerce the
people of Cuba into asking for an
nexation. Rather the efforts of the
administration will be toward prevent
ing the acquisition of Cuba as terri
tory of the United States, which would
mean the free entry of her sugar and
tobacco to our markets.
Cuban annexation is not a Republi-
can but is essentially a Democratic
proposition. Virtually a part of the
American continent Cuba is already
under our protection and the PROPOSE
don to bring her into the Union is as
Democratic as the annexation of
islands in distant seas in other parts
Of the world is un-Democratic and un-
American.
Our greatest expansion has been the
work of Democrats. Jefferson, the
founder of the Democratic party, was
the greatest expansionist, but every
lille Of territory in the South and
West of the Mississippi added to the
national domain by the Democracy
was contiguous. was largely settled
already by c~ongenial whites and tend
ed to increase our national strength,
whereas acquisition of islands in Asia
whose people we car never assimilate,
can only weaken and dissipate it.
There need be no effort to coerce or
unduly influence the Cuban people to
secure annexation, the pre-eminent adj
vantages of which every intelligent
Cuban sees and appreciates.
who wouldn't want to be a part of
such a country" exclaimed n men,
Der of a distinguished party of Cuban
visitors to the United States as their
ship steamed into New York harbor
the other day and their first view of
the greatest American city vas
gained.
The exclamation was natural and
evidently voices the sentiment of the
majority of the people of the Pearl of
the Antilles.
Annexation, despite certain greedy
American trusts, will come in due time
and it will come with the glad con-
Sent of the Cuban people.

LONDON. Sept. IA despatch from
Middleburg to the Times says the APP
proaeh Of mid-september has had the

CoNDoNING ASSASSINATION.

The South-hating New York Tribune,
having nothing else it dares discuss
politically, disturbs the grave of Gov.
Goebel of Kentucky, to repeat and en-
large upon the vicious ISLANDERS and
partisan falsehoods that eliminated in
his eowardly assassination.
The rabid So%uth-hating organ barely
stops short of congratulating the as
sassin who murdered Gov. Goebel. 1t
declares, in effect, that the assassin's
bullet did good work in Kidding the
Republican party of a dangerous oppo-
nent.
Yet no newspaper in the United
States poses more prominently as an
upholder OF law and order and the
sanctity of the courts and as an oppo-
nent of violence and incsndiarism han
this same Tribune.
Evidently the conspirators who plot
ted Gov. Goebel's murder will never be
brought to book with the aid and con-
sent of the chief Republican organ of
the United States.
The Tribune holds up its hands and
rolls up its eyes in pious horror at just
criticism of the Supreme Court, but vir-
tually applauds assassination when the
crime is committed in the interest of
the Republican party.
Always accusing its political oppo-
nents of "anarehistie tendencies" the
Tribune shows itself to be the worst of
anarchists.

To Receive President kruger-Indi-
Gates Frances Position.
NEW YORK. Sept. "A despatch
from Brussels to the Times says that
no credence is given in that city to the
rumor that Mr.. Kruger will be receiv-
ed by the Car in the course of his
Majesty's visit to France, though the
pro-Boer organs consider such a step
desirable.
The leading papers understand that
Emperor Nicholas has refused to re-
eeive the Boer ex-President, and that
this decision indicates the attitude of
rance n Russia TO be the same as
that of Germany. 1t is believed that
neither of the three powers will con-
slider intervention.

THE FOOL KILLER BUSY.

The other day a life saver who was
giving an exhibition of his methods in
the surf at Rockaway Beach, was
drowned before the eyes of thousands
who calmly looked on supposing that
his death struggles were a part of his
performance. His daughter, who as
sisted him in his dangerous feat, was
barely rescued.
The same day that this tragedy oc-
Cured a man dived into Boston Harbor
to swim to New York. Gaping thous-
ands witnessed and cheered his en-
trance Upon his tremendous task, which
he expects to accomplish in thirty days,
swimming in good weather about TWEEN
ty-fye miles a day.
Evidently the fool killer has his
hands full just now.
