The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1901-08-06

superintendent Lichtenwalter, the
loquacious assistant chef of the county
infrmary, is sorely tried. He has
troubles and is not particular to whom
he relates them. The stories from
the county institution that have found
their way to the public, where they
rightfully belong-for the public pays
the price and ought to know what is
going on-.have driven the superinten-
dent to high notch of excitement.
1t is related that he was at All explo-
sive tension over Sunday. A neighbor,
the wife of a prominent farmer, called
at the infrmary Sunday to make in
quiry about a matter of interest to
her, and incidentally met the superin-
tendent somewhere on the grounds.
Good morning" said the woman.
~Oh, not good morning at ALL" the
superintendent is said to have re-
turned 81 am simply bothered to
death. All these lies and scandals 60
ing around and everybody repeating
stories, it is simply awful. l tell you,
between the News-Democrat and the
potato bugs l am just about driven
crazy"
All Of which suggests that If the
superintendent would spend more
time in the potato patch and less in the
kitchen, the bugs, at least, would not
bother him so extensively.
Schley's letter, insisting that the
court of inquiry in his case be permit
ed to form its own opinion, has had the
effect to silence some Of the louder
mouthed of his traducers.
The campaign orators, who told the
laboring men last fall that the trusts
were being organized for the purpose
of throttling the unions, with a view
to eventually controlling labor com
pletely, have joined the immense com.
pany of 'F.told-you-sos."
Rev. Edward ]. Hardy, of Trinity
college, Dublin. the author of How
to Be Happy, Though Married." has
been making a visit to Chicago, and
says that he Is appalled, with the hurry
and unrest OF that city which is more
pronounced there than anywhere else
in America.
August ought to understand at the
outset that July's score cannot be
beaten.
Strikes seem to be as numerous un-
der the empire" as they we've under
the republic.
II August would offer something Or
iginal in the weather line, it would be
acceptable.
A councilman who fells another man
with single blow ought to be con-
sidered pretty good feller.
The Boer war has severely wounded
John Bull in the pocketbook, but he
still has enough to reward his generals
and project pension system for other
soldiers.
1t would be good idea to start
that Schley fund over again and give
some of the loud takers chance to
prove their sincerity.
The Boer war Is costing England Sc, .
10000 week. Expensive business
and they are making little progress.
1t is said that at the county infirmary
they have dark dungeon the inside Of
which is painted black, into which they
put recalcitrants. It is evident then
that the institution is not much blacker
than it has been painted.

An independent sugar refining COM
pany has been organized in New Jer-

have to go still higher in order to d.

OF two.
