CLOSING REFLECTIONS.

parties, the republicans holding
 their meeting in Elks' hall and
 the democrats theirs in the court
 house, and the speakers for each
 party predicted victory at the
 close of the polls on Tuesday
 night. After the meetings on
 Monday night the chances of the several candidates were dis cussed on the streets and in the resorts and the partisans of each were firm in their belief of suc- cess. All were enthusiastic and good nature prevailed through out. Upon the whole the cam paign has been comparatively free from objectionable person alities, principles and policies of the two leading parties and the general qualifications of the several candidates forming the basis of all discussions. The ex- travagance of the democratic administration of the cOunty's affairs received the attention due it's importance, and the result of this feature of the campaign will be found in the returns.
 Early on Tuesday morning the candidates and their friends were on the move, and when the time for the opening of the polls ar rived all were ready for the final battle. Conspicuous as work CT at the polls was MT. Ives, the candidate for the council. His early training in the school of democratic politics was there particularly displayed. He was in evidence everywhere, working and directing others how to work. He is made of the stuff that carry elections, whether the policies advocated by such as he are for the benefit or in jury of the people. Other can didates were no less conspicuous, but were not so skillful in their movements.
 The campaign for the repub- licanS has been managed with force and skill and every detail attended to. The credit for this is largely due to the secretary of the county central committee, Peter T. Robertson, who has won the respect of his enemies as we'll as his friends. That he will become a power in the re- publican party in this county is certain, for his work has been clean and performed with an intelligence and alertneSs rare as it is commendable.
 For the humble part the Sen tinel has played in the campaign for good and economical govern ment, and especially in the man agement of the legal and busi ness affairs of the county, it has no explanation to make, for it has been actuated solely by the belief that a change in political methods would be greatly ad- vantageOuS to the county and for the best interests of the peo- pie. It has the consciousness of duty we'll done and as intelli- gently as the editor was capable of understanding the facts and circumstances presented for dis cussion and elucidatiOn. Be lieving in the justness of the po- sition the Sentinel has taken and hoping that all things will work out for the ultimate good of the people, the result at the ballot box must tell the story of it's efforts for honest government.

COAL MONOPOLY
May be Broken by Use Of OIL
Fuel Value Of Texas
Product,

Washington. Sept. 4.-Oil may
prove to be the means OF breaking
the coal monopoly in the anthracite
region. A paper is now in course of
preparation by Charles Willard Hayes
of the geological survey, showing the
possibility of oil from the Texas field
coming into competition with the coal
OF Pennsylvania for all fuel purposes.
1t will give the relative fuel value Of
the Texas oil and various kinds of
coal, especially the hard. coal Of Penn
sylvania.
This will be the first authentic pub
lication Of the government treating
this subject at great length. It is be-
lieved that 1t will be instrumental in
guiding consumers of coal toward
methods for supplanting the use Of
that fuel with oil, especially during
times when high prices are. demanded
for coal.

Labor Day.

Canton's growing labor sentiment
was shown Monday in the demonstra-
tion made by the local organized la
Dor. In the face of disagreeable
weather, about $500 men turned out
In observance Of the one day in the
year that organized labor has set
apart for itself. And this showing
was almost exclusively that of Can
ton. Outside towns and unions had
been asked to contribute towards tho
observance of the day in this city
but unfavorable weather or other con-
ditions resulted in but a small ad-
dition to the local strength.
There was complete suspension Of
business In every line-the labor COM
pelling suspension-even to a greater
degree than is usually observed in the
great holidays Of the year with the
exception of Christmas. The organi-
zation of the working element is alone
responsible for this. Labor's power
in organization is just as surely shown
in the consideration paid by the pub
lie man and the politician. Labor is
q power and feels itself growing. Let
labor use its power for the greatest
good.

Nssvs and Comment
Home Rule and just Tsxaslon.

Inc democratic party In Ohio has
risen to the height of It's opportunity
and goes before the people with a
platform remarkable for its strength
and compactness. Instead of a verbose
declaration of generalities IL confines
itself to questions Of immediate i'm
portance and to practical methods of
dealing with them, what is said being
brief and directly to the point. The
fact is recognized that this is state
election and that the result will havo
direct effect on the interests Of the
people of the state. National ques-
tions are therefore recognized to the
extent of formal Endorsement of the
last Democratic national platform,
and then put aside that exclusive at
tention may be given to state issues,
and more particularly to the two that
just now overshadow all y others
Home rule and just taxation. 80.
These are questions that concern
every citizen of Ohio, whatever may
be his party affiliations on national
topics. The appeal Of the platform
upon them is not addresses to Demo-
Gratis alone, but to all citizens and
taxpayers of the state. The principles
set forth will commend themselves to
the judgment of large proportion of
the Republican masses, however much
they may be opposed and denounced
by Republican politicians for partisan
purposes, or by privileged interests
that profit by existing conditions and
will unQuestionably use every effort
to prevent reform.-Cleveland Plain
Dealer.

New York, Sept. 4. = United states

Platt makes these statements, but l
do know that the strike will be ended

he denied that he had conferred wit
President Mitchell, the strike leader,
and refused to say what steps he had
taken to end the strike.
Senator Platt has also declined t.
explain the grounds OF his positive
statement. 1t is, however, an open Sc
cret that the three senators whose
States are most vitally interested In
the strike, have sent word to j. r.
Morgan that the continuance OF the
strike Is menace to Republican sue
cess in the coming elections and that
the strike must be ended soon, and II
it costs the Republican party any or
their stale tickets or serious loss in
the congressional districts, legislation
Will be enacted at the next session
which will not be pleasing to Mr..
Morgan, and the bars Will be put up
high against his further progress in
his ambitious financial prospects.

Municipal Finances.

City Clerk Loyd's figures on the con-
dition of the city finances presents
food for thought, not only on the part
of the members of the council, but
for the people of the caty at large.
Canton is a fairly progressive city
and her expenses, including those for
public improvement, have not been
enormous, yet when the council makes
move in any direction they are con-
fronted with the clerks cry of mo
money in the fund" s.. s.
This state of affairs has existed for
some, time. During the spring sessions
of the municipal body, the same tune
was often heard and Canton sailed
under the protection of the Septe
apporuonment with ragged canvas
anc empty holds. Now comes the last
supply of money which is engulfed
with hardly a perceptible effect, as
far as the betterment of the various
funds is concerned.
Council has passed up Ioyd's re-
port with accepted and placed on
file.' For that matter council can
hardly DO anything else, the far.hest
that body can reach in the matter Is
to stop paying out money and
would mean a disorganiZation. Bond
issues are unsatisfactory to meet neeas
such as at presena confront the city
and this removes the onus from the
council.
Where the remedy lies is In the tax
duplicate. Cantons middle class and
small property owners are paying
mere in proportion to the property
they hold than the wealthier individ-
rals and the corporations. The tax
able property of the moderate holder
Is more in evidence than that of the
weaalthier and the tax assessor gets
a line of greater proport'onate value
on the former than on the latter. AS
a result, the small holder figures on
the tax duplicate for about 60 per cent
of his property while the other es-
capes with valuation of about 20
per cent. A more equitable adjust
ment, by assessing large properties at
more reasonable figures, would raise
the city's income.
No one will deny that Canton's tax
able wealth has wonderfully increas-
ed during the past number of years,
yet even a casual glance at the tax
duplicate will show that the tax valua-
ticn has not observed, by far, the |
same proportion. A total reorganiza-
ion Of the taxation system is most
serious need.
Canton cannot continue to, grow as
she has been growing in an industrial
and commercial prosperity and then
allow her municipal affairs to drag
along in a system that is retarda-
tive.

The School Code.


1t is gradually dawning upon the
understanding of a number OF good
people that the decisions OF the state
supreme court which overthrew exist
ing legislation regarding the form OF
government OF most Ohio cities null
nted the special legislation with re-
gard. to city schools as well. 1t was
not that the school laws are not wise
measures up to date and well adapted
to the needs OF the municipalities com
cerned. In this, as in the case of
city charters, the faulB was not in the
provisions OF the laws, but in the fact
that they were special, when the state
constitution declares all such legis-
lation must he general and apply to
all cities in the state, in place OF to
but one or two.
with all due respect for Governor
Nash, we believe the legislature should
take up this matter and enact a school
code applicable to all cities School
Commissioner Bonebrake has been i'm
pressed with this necessity from the
first and in connection with Mr.. Seese
OF Akron, chairman of the house COM
mittee on common schools, has drafted
a bill to meet the emergency. That
measure will be introduced and the ex-
ira session should not close without Its
and adoption, with such
revision as may seem necessary, after
careful and exhaustive discussion.
