going to stand for such partiality?

It Is hinted that Hon. George vii.
helm, of Stark, has an ambition to be
president pro TEN. of the senate
Ohio State Journal.
1t is understood, hereabouts, that
the Honorable George Wantsitagain
will be pretty well satisfied if he can
retain his seat on the floor. Besides
Senator Archer, who Is avoiding an in
dictment in Indiana with the aid Of
his friend, Governor Nash, thinks he
has gained sufficient notoriety to &C.
cure Dicks endorsement.
The Honorable Charles M. Schwab
is said to be dissatisfied with the slow
process of accommodating wealth at a
salary of only a million dollars year,
and contemplates resigning, to go into
a more lucrative business. II is be.
lieved he will come over into Ohio,
start another newspaper in some field
| already filed, and get rich all in a
bunch.
There should be a large attendance
of Democrats at the convention called
by Chairman Turnbull, for the assem-
bly, room, city hall, Saturday at 10
o'clock. 1t is important that there be
an exchange of opinion with reference
to the senatorial question. There is
chance to elect Democrat this year,
as the people are in the humor to pun
ish the trusts and stand for a party
that il right on the taxation question.
Other matters enter into the selection
of a senator this fall. and 1t behooves
the Democracy of Stark to meet its
Carroll county bsethren fairly, that
there may be no misunderstanding.
The Ohio State Journal recently had
a story from Mansfield that there was
opposition to the denomination of
Judge S. NJ. Douglass. for the circuit
bench. 1t was reported that Hon. NJ.
A. Doughtery, of Lancaster, would cen.
test the nomination with Judge Dou-
glass. Mr.. Dougherty has written
letter declaring that he never had such
/ intention and would stand by Judge
Douglass. The Mansfield Shield is
inclined to lay the authorship of the
story to Editor Cappeller, but just now
all tho deviltry tnat is going on in and
around Mansfield is laid to Cappeller
by the Shield, and Cappeller, in turn,
lays II to the Shield. The danger is
that the gentlemen will fool around
till they will both be able to prove it.
Charge after charge has been made
against Superintendent IiShtenwalter,
of the county infirnary, but the direc-
tors have paid no attention. Why?
It is openly claimed that Lichtenwalter
has special pull with them. Why?
/ What did he catch them at, If any
thing? The stories that come to the
ears of the public from the infirmary-
the incidents of bad treatment of the
INDECENT poor and the establishment of
dungeon at poor house for the
first time in the history of Stark coun-
ty-ought to bring the blush of shame
to the face of every director. Instead
there has not been, so far as the pub
lie knows, even an investigation. II
is about time the potency Of Mr.. Lich-
tenwalter's pull is being inquired into.
The Honorable J. Pierp. Morgan is
not doing as well with his proft-shar-
ing scheme as he thought. Men are
not biting at it and going back to
work, for the reason that they think
the stock isn't worth the value Nor
