1t is admirable in Mr.. Silliman, a de-
voted Humphreys man, since or before
the time they left a Bar Association
banquet togetherin high dudgeon, to
defend the course of his friend. A
warm intimacy, which we trust Judge
Humphreys will not come to deny, and
which was accumulated by the 5000
fee granted in the Miner case, makes
Mr.. Silliman quite inhospitable to the
plea for pure Judiciary. We do not
complain, therefore, of his general at
titude but of the specific charge that
the Advertiser accused Humphreys of
framing the discarded proposition to
lreorganize the Hawaiian judiciary, we
wish to enter plea in abatement. We
don't think the Advertiser made the
charge quoted. If it did the paper had
excellent grounds for saying so, apart
from Judge Humphreys enthusiasm for
the reorganization measure. Would it
not be as well, therefore, to change the
trend of this discussion towards the
identity of the. lawyer who got many
members of the Bar Association to sign
paper favoring the reorganization of
the court on the plea that Chief Justice
Frear desired it, when as matter of
fact, the Chief Justice was wholly and
inexcusably misrepresented by the
statement? Perhaps Mr.. Silliman will
further explain why this lawyer apollo
ing so misrepresented him, but failed
to inform the persons whom he had
misled, of the circumstance.

which he put in charge of the captain.
Probably they contained an ex-parte
statement of his case which he wants
to get into the hands Of Washington

of his recent statements from the
bench. However, the truth went out
by the same steamer, and the full rec

Rests Heavily Upon q
Canton Family.
Dies Of Pneum onia and Her
Mother Lies Critically
III Of the Same
Disease.

Mrs. Lavina Agnes Gay Weaver. wife
Of Allen J. Weaver, of 1906 North
Market street, died Thursday morning
of pneumonia after several weeks Ill
ness. For days her condition was con-
sidered to be critical and on Tuesday
Dr.. Marchand was called into CONSUL
tation by the attending physician, Dr.
Portman. On Wednesday friends Of
Mrs. Weaver were aware that her death
was only question of hours.
The death of Mrs. Weaver Is pecul-
iarily sad one, not only on account OF
the trying circumstances under which
1t occurred and the fact that during
her residence in Canton she had won
for herself so many friends, but be-
cause of the four little children, who
will be left motherless. These chill
dron are too young to
REALIZE THE MISFORTUNE
that has befallen them.
Her husband, Allen Weaver, was
just recovering from an illness of a
similar nature at the time she became
III anu ut tuC PiCoCuI IlulC hSi LuothNl
is lying in hospital in st. Louis suf-
fcring with the same disease which took
her daughters life. Mrs. Gay and Miss
Gay, mother and sister of the deceased,
came to Canton during the later part
of the summer for visit. During
their stay, Mr.. Weaver became i'll and
was just convalescing when the mother
and sister left for their home in Crosse
Tete near New Orleans, La. Mrs.
Weaver accompanied them to the train
aud while at the station complained Of
what she thought to be slight chill.
Upon her return to the house her con-
dition became more serious and later
1t became apparent that she was
STRICKEN WITH PNEUMONIA.
Mrs. Gay and her daughter had reach
ed st. Louis upon their homeward jour-
ney, when the former became i'll. She
was taken to the hospital where the
physicians diagnosed the illness rs
pneumonia. After placing her mother
in the hospital Miss Gay received tel
egram announcing the illness Of her
sister. She wired asking If 1t was SER
ious and received the reply that
If she wished to see her sister she must
come at once. Her mothers condition
being such that she would leave her, she
immediately started upon the journey
and arrived in Canton just before Mrs.
Weaver lapsed into the semi-conscious
condition from which she never rallied.
Mrs. Weaver was a native of Louis
lana. Her father was quite wealthy
and was the owner of large planta-
tion near New Orleans. Allen Weaver
while on a tour for the purpose of pur-
chasing lumber met her at her home.
They were married and he brought her
to his northern home. Since her resi-
dence here Mrs. Weaver has made
many friends and her death will be a
loss to large number of people.

On c., L. & w. Is Kept
Busy
CLEARING UP TRACKS
Three Wrecks Occur Within
Twenty-Four Hours--large
Amount Of Gravel Being
Taken From the Pit.

The G. L. & w. wrecking crew has
been kept busy during the past "A
hours. Within that time three acci-
dents of more or less serious nature
have occurred, necessitating the call
ing out Of the crew.
Early Wednesday morning the crew
was called to Grafton 10 complete the
work of cleaning up little wreck
that had occurred the day before. The
work had scarcely been completed
when another accident on the south
end of the road, near 'Freeport, called
them to that place. A heavy freight
train had just crossed a trestle, when a
timber gave way. Luckily, the car
was far enough away to prevent its
falling through, and no serious trou-
BILE resulted. The damage to the tres
tie was repaired and the crew returned
to headquarters.
About 2 o'clock Wednesday after
noon, south bound freight train, near
Chamberlain, on the north end, col
lided with the rear end of another
freight. The caboose was consider
ably damaged, and the accident de-
layed other trains for quite awhile.
Chief Train Dispatcher j. E. Fahy,
of the c. L. & W., was in the city a
short time Wednesday, on business rel
ative to the handling of the gravel
trains at the pit, about one hall mile
north of this city. 1--WE have been
taking, on an average, Of three train
loads of gravel, daily, from the pit for
the past two weeks said Mr.. Fahy.
1T has been difficult problem for us
to handle the trains so as to interfere
with the trains as little as possible.
The gravel is badly needed on the
north end where it is being used, and
in consequence the gravel trains will
be allowed to go around freight trains
for q few days till the gravel demand
is supplied"

The public had looked for a short
trial and early conviction OF Czolgosz,
the assassin, but the work of the court
and the jury which found him guilty
of murder in the first degree was ac-
complished in much less time than ex-
pected. The conduct of the trial was
creditable to court and counse, for
both sides. There was on undue haste,
but the nature of the case made it
possible to arrive at an early convic-
tion and thus meet the demands of
Justice. The laws of the country have
been held sacred in the trial, and
swift retribution has come in lawful
manner to the anarchist who shocked
the civilized world by his horrible
deed.

A UhrichsviIie Editor in
Effigy.
AN INDIGNANT CROWD
Would Have Made It Warm for

Hin--Resented His
Uttcran nces.

Down at Uhrichsville, Tuscarawas
county, the citizens have no more use
for anarchists than is had for them in
larger towns. Neither have the citi-
z6ns any use for newspapers that make
derogatory utterances about the late
president. Within the past few days
unpleasant conditions have existed
among tho stockholders of the Twin
City News, all on account of that paper
saying Mckinley was false" in num-
Der of ways. The chief trouble was
caused by demonstration made when
the editor, Chap. Ginther, published the
editorial against Mckinley. No less
than $50 indignant citizens assembled
about the News Office. and there would
not have been tar enough in Uhrichs-
Vile and Dsnnison to snswe- the
crowds purpose had they found Ginth-
er. Several nights later crowd con-
gregated before the News Office and
hanged Ginther in effisy, having a
wooden dagger protruding from the
drmmy's breast. Ginther was until a
year ago q strong admircr OF the late
president.

reads the rising tide has been q
food Of Increased value, but the percen-
tage Of railroad valuation, as pointed
out in our former brief, has fallen to
about 20 per cent. of the true value Of
the railroad properties in this state.
IN conclusion we wish to awaken
this honorable board to realization
OF what is going forward in Ohio and
her sister states. The Republican
state platform demands constitutional
relief from the tax iniquity Of Ohio
The Democratic platform demands
radical changes in our tax laws. The
correction of abuses in taxation Is
going forward in the state of Michigan
where $450,000,000 have been added
within few weeks to the grand dupli-
cate of the state by the state board Of
equalization sitting in Lansing.
IF this board shall lie in cold OBJ
struction in the path of tax reform and
refuse to place upon the railroads Of
the state a Just proportion of the tax
burdens which oppress the people Of
the state, then we shall feel that the
words which Judge jeremiah Black ad-
dressed to the judiciary committee Of
the Pennsylvania senate may properly
be said here: We are often told that
in this struggle for honest government
against the power of the railroad cor
porations the just cause has no chance
of success. We do seem to be out on
forlorn hope. The little finger Of mo-
nopoly Is thicker than the loins of the
law The influence of our enemies is
mysterious, incalculable and strong
CROUCH to make the constitution a dead
letter in spite of oaths to obey it, and
a popular demand, almost universal, TO
enforce it,"

POWER PLANT
Of c. & A. Railway to Be
at Akron.
GRAHAM HILL PLANT
Will Also Be Built BY the Com
pany--A Plan to Light
Both Canton and
Akron.

The Canton-Akron Railway company
has decided to erect light and power
plant in Akron. In fact. application
las already been made to the council
for franchise to operate plant, says
the Democrat of that city, and the COM
pany making the request is one OF
means and energy. 1t is the Canton
Akron Electric Railway company, which
is backed by one Of the strongest rail-
way syndicates in this country, with
headquarters In Boston.
Moreover the company wants to fur
nish light to this city.and IL a favor
able franchise is granted, a plant large
enough
TO FURNISH POWER
for operating the line between Canton
and Akron. and between Canton
and New Philadelphia, and also for fur
niehing light, to Akron. Darberton and
Cuyahoga Falls, will be constructed.
The application was signed by John
c. Welty, of Canton, as attorney for
the company.
Secretary Chas. A. Kolp, of the
Canton-Akron company, was present
at the council during the earlier part 0;
the session. To reporter he said:
you can easily see that we must soon
begin erecting our power plant, as work
on the new line is progressing rapidly.
While 1t has not been definitely decided
where the plant will be located. 1t
seems to
BE AGREED UPON
that Akron would be the most adyan-
tageOus location, as here we could oper-
ate an electric light department In con-
junction with our power plant.
I'VE will submit bid for the con-
tract to light Akron, and believe our
equipment will enable lis to give good
service"
The application has been referred to
the light committee OF the council.
When seen by reporter Wednesday
morning John G.. Welty, of Canton.
said: Eyes we have applied for the
franchise though the account given in
Akron is misleading. The Graham hill
project has
NOT BEEN GIVEN UP
as we intend to have two plants in
operation but we want to know how
much power we will need in the Canton
plant From Akron we could supply
the entire line with power and the cities
OF Canton and Akron with light. When
we have arranged for the Akron plant
then we Will know just how much pow
or we will need at Graham's hill. The
