A DepIorabie Spectacle.

II ever there was time when
patriotism should supplant partisan
ship in Ohio affairs, we have reached
that point In legislative affairs. That
formerly illustrious body that gave the
country renown through a Chase, a
Garfield, a Sherman, and Thurman,
is now presenting to the people of the
country the most deplorable spectacle
OF incompetency in our history.-Bel-
laire Democrat.
A Plea For the Trusts.
The Candy trust is said to be the
one which will next have to fight for
existence. Those trusts that have man.
aged to live are only small minority.
People should watch all sides OF this
question and should make up their
minds slowly as to the trusts Ohio

BREAK
In Strikers'Rank nks Failed
to MateriaIize.

(News-Democrat Leased Wire Servicc.)
Tamaqua, Pa, Sept. 22.-The expect
ed break in the strikers ranks failed
to materialize, and today the men IN
the Panther Creek valley are as firm
as they were on the first morning Of
the strike twenty weeks ago
heavy rain this morning kept the
strikers in doors. 1t was planned that
strenuous effort should be made to
keep the non-strikers at home and
heavy picket line was thrown out but
the continual downpour compelled the
strikers to abandon effort.

The action of the veterans in en-
dorsing General Smith, who had been
censured and condemned by the war
department and administration, for ap-
plying the water cure to certain Fill
pino spies, is evidence that the boys
of the Nineteenth. Ohio have not for
gotten the drastic measures that had
to be resorted to during the rebellion
in order to dispose of spies and in re-
taliatlon for outrages committed by
the enemy. Human life was counted
rather lightly as compared with the
destiny of the nation, and only those
who have been engaged in war know
aught of its horrors.

Home and Foreign Prices.

The trusts have been forced to ac-
NIT that they are selling their pro-
ducts to foreigners at lower prices
than they sell the same goods to
American consumers. So much !s con-
ceded. We may stick pin right there.
Now comes the explanation, the excuse.
Foreigners are given lower prices, 1t
is said, Ito Offset transportation
charges and duty" ito meet English
manufacturers, !" rather than be forced
out of the market" ito meet foreign
prices" But when this is said the fact
remains that the price is made lower
and that profit is made on the lower
price. And this is the only material
point.-.Boston Post.

DlspasslOnatc Scientific View.

At the meeting of the British Asso-
citation for the Advancement of Sci
ence at Belfast, Ireland, on Friday last
the general opinion of the members
was voiced that such trusts and combi-
nations as exist in the United States
have little chance of eventual sue
cess in such free trade country as
Great Britain" This is in accordance
with the deductions of science and
reason. 1t may be assumed, too, with
out violence that the men Of science
in Great Britain are much more cap
able of delivering am impartial opin-
ion as to the economic conditions IN
their country than are the protectionist
doctors on this side of the Atlantic.

Monroe Doctrine.

What a terrible bugaboo some peo-
pie make of a simple matter! What,
pray, is there difficult about the Mon
roe doctrine? Listen: The Germans
are still wondering about the Monroe
doctrine. Even the president, in his
recent tour, tried to make the doctrine
clearer. The thing is extremely SIM
pie. The entire Monroe doctrine can
be compressed into four little words.
These words, addressed to all foreign
nations, are neither more nor less than
the familiar sign seen in the parks:

bank clearings in Canton last week
were 81 per cent larger than for the
corresponding week of last year. The
showing is a very satisfactory one, as
it indicates that there is rapid
growth in the business of the city. The
per cent of increase exceeded that OF
