There were also men In the audi.
ence who dare to think for themselves

Mark Hannas swelling of himself
up and calling men liars--as IL he were
addressing his roustabouts on the ore
wharves, is not calculated to satisfy
the people of the State as a sufficient
answer to specific and grave charges
of political misconduct. Even the cle-
plants and the brass bands will hardly
overcome their scruples in this re-
spect.
viii the voters Of Ohio "stand pat?''
Hardly; Hardly. Mr.. Hanna will have
to revise his definition of Republican
duty in this campaign and make it
include something more than these
ways OF standing pat" He may
even be compelled again to resort to
the gamblers vocabulary to tell his
followers what they must do to be
saved; that this cannot be brought
about by calling folks mere liars, but
that Mr.. Johnson's charges must be
met,-in short that the party must
"see" Mr.. Johnson and his accusa-
tions.

WHEN DADDY PLAYS HIS FIDDLE

When quiet settles DER the farm,

He plays reel or jig or two
To git his fingers free;
TO take the kinks out left by work,
He says to ma and me.
An then he puts in longer strokes,
An lays his face hard DER.
An plays on three strings at time
An sometimes hits the four.
He cuts In deep upon the bass
An thunderstorms pass DER,
An then he sails high on the r.

Now deep an loud. now soft an low
Life tremblin' by a thread:
A dismal wall off in the night
Where grayestuns mark the dead.

An sun breaks through the rain,
An then he strikes a martial air
An marchers home again.
No time, no tune, no written score.
Jes' somethin' daddy plays,
The like Of which wuz never heard
In old or modern days.
He seems different man whene'er
His fiddle's in his hand;
There is a bond between, the two

FAR FROM THE END.
Today Opens 10Th Week Of the
Miners Strike. H
Say mo Concessions" and
Men Say mo Yielding"
Feeling Is Now General That the End
Is Far Off.

Shenandoah, Pa. Sept. 14.-Tomor-
row will begin the 18th week OF the
coal strike. The date on which Sem
ator Plat predicted that the strike
would end has passed and the hope
which was installed into the people in
this locality because of that prediction
has been succeeded by a feeling that
the end is still far off.
The reiteration by the coal presi-
dents during the week that no conces-
sions would be made and the resolu-
lions passed by nearly all the local
unions of the United Mine Workers
their allegiance to their Of
fcers and pledging themselves to con-
tinue the strike until concessions are
granted, show that neither side to the
is weakening.
General Goblin, in charge of the state
troops encamped in this county. denies
that he is preparing to remove the
troops at an early date or that he ex-
poets an order from the governor to
withdraw the troops. He says he does
not anticipate an order of that kind
until there is q settlement of the
strike.
