masterpieces must be true to natural
detail, and with the subjects at hand
the artist could readily be pardoned II
the product was more suggestive Of the
picturesque than the esthetic.
Happy the man, of mortals happiest be,
Whose quiet mind from vain desires
is free,
When neither hopes deceive nor fears
torment,
But It~,sns. lives at peace within himself
In thought and act accountable to none
But to himself and to the gods alone,
Exchange
Volunteers and valentines have the
boards.
Governor Nash can at least put up
fine bluff.
II they are to be sent against pugs,
they ought to be armed with typewrit-
ers instead of carbines.
Governor Nash called the Cincin.
natl bluff with a handful of Eighth
Ohio.
1t has taken them long time to
find it out, but it has finally b ZEN con-
ceded that Mr.. Mckinley has been re-
elected.
If the town is SO hard up that it can
not buy few picture frames without
shopping around in the back alleys
fishing for old shoes, 1t would better
go out Of the school business.
The Honorable James H. Robertson
has actually had the nerve to announce
his own name for reelection. He fails
however, to take the voters into his
confidence to the extent Of informing
them what mountebank will be mayor
during the second term, If he gets
there.
The Honorable Frank Baird attempts
to beg the real question by facetiously
|
quire rubber neck to twist the head
around so as to get focus on the Hon
orable Baird, in the extreme rear, after
the votes are counted.
Since the Eighth Ohio has been sent
for the pugs are beginning to get good.
It will be remembered that the Span.
iards at Santiago surrendered soon
after the arrival Of the Eighth.
| The electoral vote has been counted
and it has been decided that Mr.. Nc
Kinley is well enough to undergo the
shocking surprise incident to the in
formation that he was elected presi-
dent last fall.
It is evident that Professor Wright
hasn't much faith in the efforts some
of the teachers make to run their
schools. His interview in this issue
indicates that he thinks things might
be running better. But is he not indi-
rectly criticising himself when he too
severely structures the public schools,
of which he is the head?
The man who fails is the man who
quails
When he sees Dame Trouble appear,
And foolishly frets and weakly let's
Her lead him around by the ear.
The man who wins kicks Fate on the
shins
Whenever she gets in his way
Filings Woe from the track and never
turns back
To hear what she has to say.

Peter M. Herold, writing in the Car.
rollton Free Press on the common
pleas judge question, says that in his
opinion what Carroll county needs
more than resident judge is a few
car loads of fertilizer. This remark
is called out by the fact that the mem
ber of the board Of equalization insist
ed that the valuation of the farm lands
of Carroll be reduced owing to the fact
that the fertility of the soil had fallen
off in the last ten years. Stark county
politicians might consult the local fer.
tilizer works and arrange to make a
trade with the farmer element down
there.
1t is a matter for general congratu
lation that the commissioners have
agreed to use natural gas at the court
house. Now the owners of other build
ings on the public square should fol
low suit. Thousands of dollars worth
of goods are damaged every year.in the
stores on the square, by being covered
