An interesting bit of gossip comes
from Canton in the shape of guber-
material representation. 1t is said
that Julius Whiting, T. Harvey Smith
and som. others who have control of
the Republican reins in Stark, are fig
uring that Colonel Dick and Harry
Daugherty are going to get into mud
die and that it will take dark horse
TO win. They figure. 1t is said, that
Taylcr is just the right kind Of fell
low to pose as the dark equine at the
proLer time, and they see chance for
his nomination. The story has much
I'm It that is plausible and those who
study state politics see In II something
more tangible than idle rumor.

TELEPHONE troubles are often
Il more eXasperating than funny
to the man behind the receiver. An
excitable German resident in, this vi
cinity who in a few years in this
country managed to accumulate some
valuable holdings in an Ohio coal
center, had one of the instruments
put in his home. Some days ago he
had occasion to call up by long dis
tance lines the man who was the su-
perintendent of his works.
Some instructions were given over
the wire, but the owners eccentric
dialect did not carry well. Say,
what are you talking about?' queried
the superintendent

ragged Teuton, You will take de phone

Prince Henrys former countryman

tendent is looking for another job.

The other day reporter watched
man who is employed by the natural

his reason for so doing.
"rhat stuff is worth two dollars an

to any Of the manufacturers of mantles
and they will pay that much for it.
1t takes about 200 old mantles to make
an ounce, but as ! fix great many
each day, the total that pick up in a
year amounts to considerable.

Senator Connell came down from
COlumbiana county, Monday. and
brought the word that Congressman
Tayler is to have no opposition that
will count for anything. He says
there is no suspicion against the Co.
lumbiana county delegation and that
it has been promised that there vii;
be no candidate from Stark. There
is still probability that ]. G. Butler.
of Mahoning, will come out, but If he
does he cannot hope to obtain serious
ly against Mr.. Tayler in Stark and
there is strong probability that he
cannot carry more than a majority OF
his delegation. Gentlemen with am
bitions failed to strike when the iron
had been properly heated from this
end of the line, and their opportunity
will not be regained for two years.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1902-03-21

Congressman Tayler is not in either
deal, though he would be more salts
factory to the Foraker people than to
either Hanna or Daugherty. So Mr..
Tayler is being groomed alone for the
race. He is to be nobody's candidate.
He will have the services of several
politicians and will be ready to go
some when the hat is dropped. He may
never become an active candidate be-
fore the convention meets, but many
men have been nominated who were
not spending their time and money
beforehand. The political situation
so far as the governorship is concern
ed will be fixed up this year. Cameron
will probably take the reins from now
on. The committee that is to be
elected at the next state convention
will probably be very favorable to him
and everything is being framed UP so
that some debating can be done from
the Columbiana end. OF course, this
year, the convention will be tame,
Secretary Laylin will head the ticket
again for his second term. There will
be little squabble over other Offices,
but every move will be in the direction
of attaining to the great object next
year.

n OLUMBUS, March 20.-Some clever
politics is being played on the
state chess board these days. 1t Is the
kind of politics that sees q long dis
tance ahead and takes advantage OF
conditions as they come up There
has been an atmosphere of change in
the Republican management for some
weeks, but 1t has but recently crystal
lized. The change is to effect the par
ty as no change has in recent years. 1t
will put into the machine harness the
Harry Daugherty crowd, and 1t will
put 1t there to stay for some time. 1t
lis not news that Isaac B. Cameron,
state treasurer, has been talked Of for
state chairman. That was mentioned
as soon as the Daugherty people land
cd McKinnon in the speakers chair.
Now Dick is said to have withdrawn
as candidate for governor. but that
claim Is still without Dicks consent.
Dick has wired local friend that he
has never said he was or was not u
candidate and that he has neither an
nounced his candidacy nor withdrawn
from a field that he has not entered.
He said 1t was time enough next year
to talk about that matter. But that is
ia subterfuge. Dick knows as we'll as he
knows any political thing-and he
knows good deal of politics-that he
cannot get the nomination for govern
or. He knows that Senator Hanna
cannot obtain much longer and carry
him, SO he has agreed not to be can
didate and will be satisfied to foist
himself on the Summit county people
again for congress.

That will give Senator Hanna a
chance to keep out of the fight, for
with Dick in he would be accused of
being in whether he was or not and
then it would be necessary to go in
and save Dick If only to save his own
prestige. Daugherty has no alliance
with Hanna. There is an understand
ing that Hanna will not oppose him,
but will keep off for a while at least,
having his own reelection to look
after, and it may be that he will even
tually get in behind Daugherty and
give him boost, but that is as far as
the thing has gone. This statement Is
made on the best Of authority. 1t is
also authoritatively stated that all hope
of winning Foraker over to the Daugh-
'erty side has been practically aban-
.doned, and Daugherty has decided to
go on without him. Hanna is there
fore in the best trim, Tor Foraker must
fight alone and whip both Hanna and
'Daugherty, while they have but one
of him to whip.

MOOSE AND LOCOMOTIVES.
When They Come Together, Which
Happens in Maine, There IL
Always Trouble.

The spunky and stubborn bull
moose has again been defying the
locomotive in Maine, with the usual
disastrous results-to the moose.
This time a whole moose family was
wiped out in about ten seconds,
making great waste of big game
and lot of work for the section
men, says Bangor (Me.) dispatch
in New York Tribune.
The engineer of freight train
on the Bangor & Aroostook road, as
his locomotive rounded sharp
curve on a down grade, saw big
bull, cow and calf. He sounded
the whistle, expecting to see the
whole family make break for the
woods, but they stood their ground,
and the bull, with a snort of def
ance, braced himself for the COM
bat, swinging his great antlered head
as though he expected to toss the To-
connective skyhigh.
The shrek of the whistle sent men
setting brakes, while the engineer
had the brakes on locomotive and
tender clamped up so tightly that
the wheels were sliding and smok-
ing over the rails. The speed of the
train and it's momentum were too
the short distance, and down swept
the fast freight upon the heroic
moose family. There was a crash
and crunching under the wheels,
while blood spattered over the boiler
head, and fragments of moose went
whirling through the air.
When few rods further on the
train was brought to stop, it was
found that all three of the moose
had been killed, the carcasses of the
COW and the calf being thrown some
distance from the track, while the
carcass of the bull had been ground
under the wheels. At the next sta
ton the section boss was informed,
and q crew was sent back to bury
the moose family. The men said
that the bull was a monster-one of
the largest ever seen along the line
of the Aroostook road.
A few days ago train on the In
tercolonial railway ran race with
big moose which was promenading
the track near Dalhousie Junction.
The moose ran foT half mile or
more at surprising speed, and then,
finding that the footing was bad on
the ties, left the track and ran along
in the ditch. Here the animal tried
to jump high wire fence, but struck
half way over, and hung there while
the train came up. One of the pas
sengers says that the moose looked
puzzled and ashamed when the train
passed him.

Quick-Witted Pastor.

In Germany, recently, country
preacher was preaching sermon
when suddenly he lost the thread OF
his discourse and, do what he would
he could not find it again.
The congregation was greatly EN-.
barrassed and was wondering what
the matter was when he startled it by
exclaimihg suddenly:
Pardon me, my brethren, for paus.
ing in my sermon, but it seems to me
that smell fire somewhere-and-and
it might be as we'll to see that it has not
broken out in the church or in any
of the nearby houses"
Before the words were all uttered
the congregation was pouring out OF
the church, each family being anxious
to make sure that it's home was not on
fire. It need hardly be said that the
fire existed only in the pastors imagi'
nation-Stray Stories.

the dangers beset you of urinary dis

There are many medicines that relieve
these conditions, but you want a rem

tells of a cure that lasted.
Veteran Josiah Heller, place Of resi-

to resort to Doan's Kidney Pills when

CHILDREN SOLD IN HUNGARY.
People Without Children Go to thu
Founding Hospital to Buy
the Waits.

The Hungarian authorities are TAX
ing decisive steps to put stop to an
extraordinary system of selling chill
dren which prevails to a large extent
in the cen trail provinces.
Once a month childless persons ap-
pear in a large founding hospital in
Temesvar where they seek out the
children that suit them and depart
after paying sum of money for their
purchases.
On recent occasion 30 children,
ranging from one to nine years, were
disposed of in this. way without suffi-
cient guarantee being given that the
purchasers were respectable people
who would treat the children prop
erly. The most beautiful children
were those most sought after, especi-
ally fair-haired girls, as these in Hun
gary are rare.
In three cases circus people bought
six children to bring up as acrobats.
In one case millionaire sought q
boy to bring up as his heir, az he had
disinherited his own son. The authori-
ties now insist on the most careful in
designations into the status and mo.
tives of the purchasers.
The news has got abroad in Hun
gary that there is ready market for
children in Temesvar, and the mothers
of i!,egitimate children are eager in
many cases to send their unhappy Off
spring to an institution where they
have such prospects.
