GROWTHOFCANTON
EyidenCed by the Increased Business
At the Banks.
AN INCREASE 800 PER Cent NOTED
In a Period of Three Years...The
Record of the First National
Bank An Index.

Canton has been making some mighty
strides forward in the business world
during the past two years. The busi-
ness of the banks has shown wonderful
increases. AS an example, at the an
nual meeting of the First National bank
on the 9th inst, the total of the busi-
ness showed that during the past three
years the business. of the bank has in
creased 300 per cent. While much of
this increase may be due to the con-
fidence the people have in men like j.
]. Sullivan. w. H. Clark, L. A. Loichot,
f. f. Case, Johnson Sherrick, Austin
Lynch and Julius Dannemiller, who are
directors of the bank, and the personal
popularity of President j. ]. Sullivan
and Cashier l.. A. Loichot, yet such
large increase must show that the busi-
ne;s growth of Canton has been phen-
omenal to sustain such an increase in
the face of the new banking institutions
and increase of business elsewhere in
the banking circles of Canton.
There is no more reliable index of the
prosperity of a city than the business
Of the banks. The savings of the peo-
pie show whether they are prosperous
and when phenomenal Increases of
business like the First National has en-
joyed take place. 1t is certain that the
community is prosperous.
g. In speaking in this connection one of
the best posted men of the city and a
man of unerring judgment said Of Can
ton and it's business interests:
II do not believe that there is q SOL
vent institution in Canton that has not
made money during the past year.
Everybory has been prosperous and
has gone forward financially"
This statement truly fits the situation,
and despite the abortiye census reports
Canton will demonstrate to all that she
is today the most prosperous. solid city
in Ohio, with more wealth per capita
with more solid citizens in proportion
to pop ulation, and with more safe
than anywhere else in the
sovereign state of Ohio.

A narrow ESCAPE
Randolph Farmer Is Attacked by An
Enraged Bull.
DESPERATE FIGHT IN A Barn Yard
With a Pitchfork...HaNey Dibble
Defends Himself and Comes
Off Victor.

Harvey Dibble, of Randolph, had n
narrow escape from death by the horns
of an enraged bull, Thursday.
The animal was turned loose in the
barnyard and at chore time Mr.. Dib-
Bile intended to drive him into the
barn, which proved to be contrary to
the wishes of the bull, for the animal
at once turned on its owner and hot
battle began. After a severe struggle
Mr.. Dibble was thrown down but by
grasping one of the bulls horns with
one hand and it's nose with the other
he was enabled to get upon his feet
again only to engage in another desper-
ate struggle for his life.
Mr.. Dibble finally reached the barn
door and procured pitchfork. Armed
with this weapon he once more faced
the angry brute and with much DIFF
ficulty drove him into the barn and
tied him.
Mr.. Dibble had several narrow es-
capes during the conflict, and it is a
wonder he was not fatally injured. In
his fall he bruised one of his arms and
side, but no bones were broken. One
cheek was pierced by the animals
horn. Aside from these wounds,
however, Mr.. Dibble claims complete
victory over the bull as he at once be-
gan to make it interesting for the ami
NAL with hickory club, Furnishing his
bullship severely. Not satisfied with
that and not caring to take any more
risks of such an unequal battle he
killed the obstreperous bovine.
Mr.. Dibble has proved himself 10
be a very courageous man, and put
up one of the hottest bull fights ever
heard of outside the famed arenas of
Spain and Mexico.

FARMERS WANT It
President Of Columbiana County Tele-

Alliance, o. Jan. 12-Pres, dent Solon G.
Thayer, of the Columblana County Tele-
phone Company. passed through ALI
ance this week on his way to Knoxville.
where he is arranging to open a tele-
phone station for his company. Mr..
Thayer, speaking of the telephone mat
ters, said:
1T is wonderful how the farmers are
subscribing for telephones. We have
hundreds who have been connected
with our system and hundreds more are
clamoring to be put on
How many telephones has the Col
umbiana County Company now in
operation?" Mr.. Thayer was asked.
I'VE have within a few of 1000 tele-
phones now in operation" he replied.
I'VE are putting more on daily. Why.
in Lisbon we now have one for every
15 population and in Salem one for every
% population. Lisbon Is the best town
in the state for the number of tele-
phones in proportion to population.
What is the Bell doing in your ter
ritory?" continued the interviewer.
"Oh, I don't like to talk about COM
petitors. They claim, / believe, 1000
telephones in Columbiana county. In
Lisbon they are said to have but ten
subscribers left while probably $50 in
the county would be nearer the number
Of subscribers they have left. Ask any
one from the county about this matter.
You will be told what the people have
done since the Bell has had a real COM
petitor to contend with.
Here comes my train" remarked the
head of the Columbiana County Tele ..
phone company as he rushed for car.
People who have inspected the Col
umbiana County company's system say
1t is the best that money can produce.
Every telephone Is connected with q
copper metallic circuit and only long
distance instruments are used. Over
a circuit of 30 miles or more one can
distinctly hear the ticking of a watch.
The company is not hampered by re-
serictions that compel it to take only
such telephones as the Bell company
make, or permit local companies to use
but has the right and does use the very
latest and best telephones made. 1t
claims that it's system is not only as
good as any other, but that it is better.
In speaking with one of the hign
officials of the new company it was
stated that toll line will be in Canton
within the naKt thirty days, when a
personal inspection of the proposed
line and a trial Of the phones and GER
vice may be made

Mrs. Nation.

Mrs. Carrie Nation, Kansas
latest freak, is still to the fore in
her aggressive crusade against the
booze vendors of that State, her
most prominent move last week
being a visit to the governor and
other prominent officials at Topeka
on Monday. Aside from the
work done by Mrs. Nation, but
probably as a result of the agita-
tion started by her, twelve wo-
men of Anthony, Kan, members
of the w. G. I. U., armed with
hammers, hatchets and pick-axes,
raided and completely demolished
four saloons in that place on
Wednesday of the same week.
On Monday of this week Mrs.
Nation met her first defeat in
her notorious saloon smash
ing career. With six women, each
armed with hatchets, she started
out to wreck restaurant, in To-
peka, that also dispensed liquors,
but was opposed by the restau-
rant people and Il free for all
fight ensued, resulting m black
ened eyes and bloody noses.
She retrieved her Mondays set
back Tuesday morning, however,
by wrecking the finest saloon in
Topeka, destroying property val
ued at $500. For this she was ar
rested, but was Immediately re-
leased. 1t is not likely that she
will stop with Tuesday, and we
may expect to hear from her again.
The methods pursued by Mrs.
Nation and her followers in their
war against the grog shops are
being widely dicussed and are
generally condemned.
While their hatchet and brick
bat campaign may be just Il little
too anarchistic to be encouraged,
there is, nevertheless, some cause
for action, and the methods adept
ed have certainly served to bring
TO Elght the f1agrant violations or
the prohibition laws of Kansas
and the criminal manner in which
the officers sworn to enforce those
laws have neglected to perform
their duty.
If public opinion in Kansas is'
opposed to the law prohibiting the
liquor traffic in that State, said
law should be repealed; if this is
not the case, the law should be
enforced, for failure to enforce
one law creates a disrespect for
all laws. Mrs. Nation has as
much right to destroy property in
Kansas as anyone has to operate
Il saloon there. Both are illegal;
both should be stopped. a,
