Ii it be true that the press mOlds
public opinion, then the Cuban press
will sufficiently mold the public's opin-
ion of that country to force President
Palma to resign its presidency. Presi-
dent Palma has aways been consired-
ed an interloper in Cuban politics and
prCtege of the United States
rather than a true Cuban, and if the
United States had not backed him in
his candidacy for the position he now
holds he would never have been elect
ed and it seems that the United
States government backed him for no
other purpose than to give him an Op-
pOrtunity to try to sufficiently crystal
iZe public sentiment on the island into
the favOring of the annexation Of Cuba
to the United States and also to pre-
vent the BLACK element from cap
turing the government If, therefore
the Cubans wish to maintain their in
dependence they had better dispense
with the further services of President
Palma.

All Europe is wincing under Presi-
dent ROosevelt's Monroe doctrine"
speech, recently delivered in New Eng
land, some of the continental govern
ments going so far as to forecast it as
war threat, in which America and
European countries will sooner or later
be involved. Europe always has fits,
spasms and commissions whenever the
Monroe doctrine is mentioned, because
it has for it's object the prevention
Of European countries from interfering
with America, which policy Uncle Sam
doctrine was first promulgated.

Fear That Passenger Line viii
Not be Built and Take
the Matter Into
Court.
(Staff Specially

Alliance, June 26.-Deputy Sherir
Smith, of Mahoning county, accom-
panied by Attorney Ewing, of Sebring
was in Alliance last night for the pur-
pose of serving papers on the officers
of the Stark Electric Railway COM
pany in suit brought by George e
Sebring and others against Davit
Morrison and others, in which 1t is
sought to enjoin the railway company
from laying rails Of the proposed
freight line into and through the town
of Sebring.
The foundation Of the suit is thought
to be In a suspicion of the plaintiffs
that the defendant company is not
going to keep faith in the promise to
build the passenger track through the
residence portion Of The town. The
plaintiffs believe that in preventing the
building Of the freight line that the
company will be forced to construct
the passenger line first.
The deputy sheriff, last night, tried
to find G. Il. Morley, of the electric
company. Mr.. Morley, however, has
left the city during the afternoon on
business trip to Cleveland. The Off
cials then drove to Sebring armed with
the authority Of the temporary injunc-
tion granted by Judge Rogers, of Ma
honing county.
Attorney Rogers, of this city, who
represents the railway company, says
the company will carry out every
promise made regarding the line at
Sebring, but will not be dictates to or
coerced into any action not agree
able to the plan of building the road.
The opposition now being offered
may result in the line being built so
as to leave out Sebring.

pathetic scene at Central police sta
tion Tuesday night, when Patrolmen

meet her in Cleveland, and learned
that she was stopping in house
on Hamilton street. The police were
notified and her detention followed.
The girl broke down completely when
she saw her brother, and said there
was man in this city living on Chest
nut street, who wanted to marry her.
The brother called up his mother by
long distance telephone, and she as
sented to the marriage II the wedding
took place at once. otherwise she
wanted her daughter sent to the
House Of the Good Shepherd. A mes
sage was sent to the girls sweetheart
and till late at night brother and
sister waited in vain for him. De-
spairing of his coming, the brother
finally concluded 1t to be best to have
his sister locked up and sent to the
House Of the Good Shepherd.

WANTED TO BUY
TWO LITTLE GIRLS
Offered Their Mother Q Price
and Then Tried kidnsp-
pInq Game.

Toledo, o., June 26.--Two attempts
were made by an unknown man to
kidnap little Helen, aged 8, and veron-
lea, aged 6. daughters of Henry Kokc,
of Woodville street. The kidnaper
first called at the home Tuesday
evening and asked Mrs. Koke whether
she could get the two little girls, stat
ing that he had little daughter he
desired just such girls to play with.
He was willing to pay a price for
them.
Mrs. Kolke ordered the man to pass
on. He walked some distance up the
street while Mrs. koke went to the
rear Of her house to get supper. The
mothers attention was speedily at
tracted by scream from the yard,
and she found the stranger with little
Helen under his arm. At the ap-
proach of the mother the man drop
ped the child and escaped. Wednes-
day morning at 8 o'clock and again
at 1870 the same stranger put in an
appearance, and the east side police
made a thorough but vain search fcs
him.
The little Koke girls are very beau
tiful and attractive. Two years ago
another stranger tried to kidnap the
girls, but was unsuccessful. At that
time the man was arrested and serv
a sentence. Last summer another at
tempt was made to get the little ones
away from their parents.

of these licenses are renewed as fast
as they expire, the holders claiming
that they would want no better rec
ommendation when applying for a
position than an Ohio engineers Ii
cense.
Licenses are found in nearly every
state in the Union, from Maine to
Texas. Tom Turner, formerly u Cleve-
land engineer, had his license renew
ed Tuesday morning, although he is
running an engine at Orange, Texas.
A Swede, who was sent to this country
for mechanical education, took out a
license two years ago. He returned to
his native country and took charge of
a large manufacturing plant. Last
year he had his license renewed and
this year his application is on file, ac'
companied by the necessary fee.

Passed Upon by the Su-
preme Court Thursday
WELTY IS SUSTAINED
A Special Session Ct tho Leg
islature May be Caiied--
Decision In Canal
Dover Case.

Columbus, June 26.-The Royer law,
depriving the supreme court of 95 per
cent of its jurisdiction, was sustain
ed in court today in an action brought
against the Canal Dover council to re-
strain it from granting the Canton &
Akron railway company franchise to
run over a county bridge and along
certain streets in the city. This
means that practically all the litiga-
tion must stop at the circuit court un-
II the legislature can cancel it's blum
der.
The probability is that a special ses-
sion of the legislature will be called
by Governor Nash to repeal the Roger
law and establish the sections of the
statute which were repealed when the
new law was passed.
This decision was made upon de-
murrer filed in the supreme court by
Attorney j. c. Weity, of Canton, who 10
counsel for the Canton-Akron railway.
When the injunction was granted re-
straining the council of Canal Dover
from granting the railway a franchise,
Mr.. Welty won the case in both the
common pleas and circuit courts. 1t
was then appealed to the supreme
court, and instead of trying the case
on its merits, Mr.. Welty denied the
jurisdiction of the court under the
Royer law. He rent to Columbus and
argued the point and this decision sus-
eains his position
The injunctions are thus dissolved
and there is no obstacle IN the way
OF the granting Of the franchise.
The decision has spread consterna-
ton over the state, as 1t will affect
all pending litigation which is now in
the supreme court. 1t makes the cir
cut court the highest court of appeal
except in constitutional cases.
