Chek m ating Mr.. Hanna.
(Pittsburg Dispatch.)


1t was not to be supposed that the
efforts of Senator Hanna's friends to
initiate his presidential boom would be
received with passive compliance in
Ohio. The election is long way off,
but never too far for the Ohioans to
circumvent an opponent. Hence the
industrious advance agents OF the
Hanna boom are suddenly halted by
an announcement from Columbus that
there is a deal between the president
and Senator Foraker by which Hanna
may be sidetracked. No, more atten-
ton may be paid to this declaration
than to the advancement of Mr.. Han
mas candidacy, both being yet in a
nebnlous condition, but 1t is interest
ing to observe skillfully the game
of politics is played in the adjoining
state. If Hanna is to be candidate
the Foraker men insist that FORAKER
shall be a candidate also. The possi-
bility of either being nominated is
allowed to pass until the time arrives.
but in the meantime all hope of either
faction corralling the Ohio delegation
is squelched.
The situation. while entertaining
and instructive, is not without its ad'
yantages. 1t effectively removes the
disouieting possibility of Ohio opening
the presidential campaign two years
ahead Of time.

understood. The best belief Is that
Foraker has simply decided to go good
for little while, but that he will have
both the Hanna and the Daugherty
factions to fight when the thing gets
squared away. So far as the adminis-
tration measures are concerned. II is
said by close friend Of Foraker that
he stated while here that they would
not bring in enough revenue and that
Il would be necessary to call special

ABOUT The LOBBIES
AT The State CAPITAL
BY Der E. WILLIAMSON.
(Staff Correspondent

- OLMBUS, MARCH 27.-Local
a option legislation is again in
~ jeopardy, but 1t is believed 1t
will not be serious The matter
came up as per schedule in the senate,
Wednesday, and fight developed. In
the first place, the senators thought
they were to discuss and act upon the
Beal bill as it passed the house and as
committee, with slight technical
amendment They found, however,
that they were simply to be used as
tools in the hands of Joe Miller, of the
Brewers association, and Purley A.
Baker, of the Anti-Saloon league, who
have been playing hand in glove in
liquor legislation. Miller wanted an
amendment that in town where a
brewery or distillery was located, Ii
quor could be sold to anybody outside
of the town. Purley agreed to this
as he was agreed to about everything
that has come up.
Miller, having gained the concession,
went further and wanted the law to
read that liquor could also be sold to
persons residing in the town, in gallon
quantities, If the town were dry after
an election. This was just little too
much, and when Senator Roger sprung
II there was howl. Miller and Baker
retired to talk the thing over, and the
senate, for some reason or other was at
standstill, the members seemingly
being in wait for something to occur
Finally a senator suggested that the
bill would probably better be consider
ed by committee of the senate rather
than a committee that had no more
business in the senate chamber than
had any other citizens of Ohio. So a
motion was made to recommit the bill
and have it reported Thursday after
noon, after the committee had had
time to consider what effect the amend
ments would have on the bill
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1902-03-28
to fix up a new scheme.


The question of granting the govern
or of Ohio the veto power, is agitating
the legislative mind. The Columbus
board of trade, at q meeting Tuesday
night, agreed to support the measure
by their influence. Representative
Price has substitute for the bill that
has been offered. that contemplates q
further power. 1t is the same as the

after the luncheon that the measurers,
that have been held In allegiance for
some days, would pass.
What effect this agreement will have
on the state situation is problematical.
II may injure the Daugherty crowd and
interfere with the plans for making
Mr.. Cameron chairman Of the state
committee. though Just how Foraker
can obtain by connecting on with Nash
and still lighting Hanna II not easily

But ii is different how. With Roose-
welt in the chair the prestige of Hanna
is no greater than that of any other
senator and the fact that he has in
sisted upon punishment, that was so
long delayed while Hanna was in con-
troll, demonstrates to Ohioans that the
way to the presidents ear Is not
through the junior senator. So For
aker gets stronger.
In the Ohio senate he has majority,
and he could defeat the administration
tax measure II he cared to. But he
took luncheon with Governor Nash
Auditor Guilbert Secretary Laylin and
other administration men, Tuesday
and 1t is believed q truce was patched
mp. At any rate the word was passed

Meanwhile Baker and Miller had
been getting together and Baker was
again yielding some points, when the
Senate took action as noted Now
everybody connected with the senate is
mad, and is ready to give the third
house a lesson. Over in the house of
representatives the same feeling pre-
walls, and the result is now in doubt,
when the bill goes back there. The
sentiment is that the liquor people were
given fair measure and they ought
to be satisfied with it. Senator Hard
ing, Republican floor leader of the SEN
ate, declared during the debate that
1t had been agreed that there should
be no amendments to the bill in the
senate and he was asked what he
meant by insisting that one be made.
He very frankly stated that he was
stockholder in brewery and that he
wanted the right to sell the stuff he
manufactured, whether a town was
voted dry or not

It has been declared that Hanna has
promised to be good and not bother
President Roosevelt, but incidents have
occurred within few days that go to
show that the junior Ohio senator and
the president are not quite so close as
the president and Foraker In this
connection the cases of Rathbone and
Neely are cited. Before the untimely
taking off of the late President Nc
Kinley, Hanna was in the saddle in the
matter of appointments. AS chairman
Of the Republican National committee
he was naturally the presidents ad-
wiser in such matters. 1t was through
Hanna that Rathbone got his appoint
ment. He was the telephone expert
in the great senatorial fight, and his
INSCRIPTIONS actions at that time were
generally understood and commented
upon. He made a, threat once in which
he declared that he would have fine
berth or would tell what he knew about
how Mr.. Hanna got his seat. His
knowledge even before prejudiced
senatorial committe could not have
been ignored.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1902-03-28

Putting two and two together, so as
TO make mathematically correct addi-
tiCn, seems to be the trade politicians
are now pursuing. Foraker has been
in town and he has dropped some very
clever and at the same time some very
significant remarks. 1t was claimed
that he and Roosevelt had formed a
compact. Foraker is to boost Roose-
welt at every available opportunity and
try to land him the nomination for a
term of his own, in which he can form
his own cabinet without hurting the
feelings of those who believe that a
promise made over the coffin of dead
president means something. In that
shake-up Foraker is to he taken good
care of. But if Roosevelt does not OBJ
tain in the convention, the story goes
that he is to throw his strength to
Foraker for the presidential nomina-
tiOn.
Not more than half of the tale Is be-
lieved. When Foraker was approached
about ii he did not deny that he was
very close to Roosevelt. He jocularly
said that Roosevelt could not throw his
support to clevered fellow. But in
the next breath Foraker went farther
and said that nobody who was not
making sport about something was
taking the mention of any other name
than that of Roosevelt seriously This
was fine jolt for Senator Hanna, and
1t is believed II was intended for such.

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
StomaChS.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

Mortified News.)

Mr.. Battell's liquor bill seems to
meet with considerable favor among
the Legislators and the people gen.
orally, who do not insist upon the
two extremes-the open saloon or
the retention of the present prohibi-
tory law. In its Legislative report
last week the News printed the es-
sentia1 features of the Battell bill.
There are some minor points which
probably ought and will be changed
before it comes before the Legislat-
ure. A majority of the supporters
of prohibition recognize that there
is an unmistakeable demand for a
change of the present law, and
whether it is wise or not there is
going to be change to more liberal
liquor laws in Vermont. In Bat
tells bill every decent man can OBJ
tain pure liquors for his own self
while hotel keepers may buy and
serve light wines and malt liquors
on their tables for actual guests.
The open saloon is avoided and in
dividual profit in handling liquor
is eliminated. The bill undoubted-s
ly appeals to a large class of people
who are opposed to the present law
but who are not in favor of the open
saloon. The News is of the opinion
that, all things considered, Mr..
Battell's plan of handling the per-
picking liquor problem is worthy of
a trial and a wise plan would seem
to be to substitute it for the present
law and at the same time pass the
best license measure possible with
a referendum as promised in the re-
publican platform. Then let the
people have their choice.
