A Game of Bluff.

1t begins to look as though the Re-
publican party was simply making a
bluff at the taxation problem which it
promised to solve during the present
session of the legislature. 1t is ad-
mitted that the plan as represented
by the bills introduced is immature
and inadequate, and the talk now is
that Governor Nash will have to call
an extra session of the legislature to
take the matter up.
The fact is beginning to dawn upon
the people that the whole thing was
an attempt to deceive the people and
take the wind out of the sails of Mayor
Tom Johnson, of Cleveland Tom was
attracting too much attention and his
name was beginning to be mentioned
in connection with the presidency. His
ideas OF equal taxation were finding
favor with the common people. Some
thing had to be done.
Governor Nash at once discovered
that he too was in favor of taxing
franchises, corporations, trusts and
combines, and the scheme was launch
ed by which it was intended TO raise
all the state taxes by special tax upon
the rich. Just how much Of this was
meant can be seen by the action taken.
Nothing was meant-nothing done.
Nash never intended to impose any
burden upon his friends, the trusts.
Meantime, Tom Johnson is keeping
UP his fight almost single handed, and
is making world of trouble fol his
opponents.

The house has passed the McNamee
bill to better protect the lives of rail-
road employees and the travelling public.
1t is full crew bill for freight trains.
1t provides for engineer, fireman, con-
ductor and two brakemen. Light en-
gine to carry engineer, fireman and
conductor and flagman. Amended to
provide for jury trial in cases of VIOLA
tion.
A bill passed Friday requiring per-
sons, associations and corporations
owning or operating interurban rail-
road with power other than steam. be-
tween corporations of cities, to provide
toilet rooms for the comfort and con-
venience of the travelling public and ap-
plying only to closed cars on interurhan
lines which require more than 80 min
utes to reach destination at greatest
authorized rate of speed for operation
of such car.
Representative McNamee, of Frank
lin county, thinks the Pullman people
are charging too much. He has intro
duced measure to regulate the prices.
He would have people pay % cents to
ride 200 miles in parlor car, $1.50 for
lower berth and SLIPS for an upper
berth, for the same distance. That
would cover travel through Ohio. 1t
will not pass this legislature. This is
railroad legislature.
The same representative has intro
duced bill for three cent fare on all
street railroads in the state. 1t is safe
to assert that it, also. will be defeated,
if, indeed, it ever gets out of commit
tee.

man, stole a quantity of new clothes
from his brother and sold bicycle
that had been placed in his care in
order to go to Mogadore, Summit
county, and marry the 16 year old
girl with whom he eloped about six
weeks ago. lie was arrested on Sat
urady evening upon his return to the
city with his bride and was sent to
the workhouse on Monday for 80 days
with a fine of 500 and costs by Mayor
Robertson.
Early in February, Schrader, who
had been working in Mogadore, eloped
with 16 year old Elmeda Manner, the
sister of the woman with whom he had
been boarding. He was found in Can
ton on that occasion at the home Of his
mother on Hurford street and with the
girl was taken to the police station on
charges or disorderly conduct.
FROM WORKHOUSE.
Mrs. Richter, the sister of the young
girl and her guardian, came to Canton
and returned with the girl to her
home. Schrader was taken before the
mayor and was sent to the workhouse.
He was released last week and said
that he was going to Mansfield to work.
A friend of his, Arthur Warner, OF
Canton, was working in Mansfield and
at the latters request he secured his
bicycle from Mrs. Warner, his mother,
with the avowed intention of taking
it to Mansfield.
MARRIAGE GARMENTS.
On Thursday he stole suit OF
clothes, an overcoat and hat from his
brother Henry, sold the bicycle to John
Legos for 81 and disappeared. He
turned up in Mogadore and was mar
ried to Elmeda Manier, the girl with
whom he had eloped over a month ago.
He decided to return to Canton, he
said, in order to return the clothes
to his brother and the bicycle to War
ner. He took rooms in the Walnut
block at Walnut and Eighth streets,
but was arrested the same night by
officers Schissler and Smiley. A
charge of petit larceny had been
brought against him by his mother
Augusta Schrader, for the theft of the
clothes, and another of false pretenses
was preferred by Legos, who had pur-
chased the wheel.
YOUNG WIFE WEPT.
Schrader's young wife was in the
court room when he was arraiened
She was sobbing bitterly and Schrader
too, made fearful plea for mercy
when confronted with the charges
He admitted that he done wrong, hi
said, bnt stated that he was crazed
with drink when he sold the wheel.
Wont you let me off, your honor
please, have something to live for
now" pleaded the man.
"Your former trip to the workhouse
does not seem to have done you any
good" returned Mayor Robertson
'and now that you have just been re.
leased. You steal clothing and dispose
OF something that did not belong to you
in order to get married. That does moi
show much consideration for youl
BRIDE"
PATHETIC SCENE.
When the sentence was imposed upor
him, Schrader sank back in his chair
weeping. AS he walked out of the
room. his eyes were red, and he called
to his wife, come down to see me be.

The little woman dried her tears ant
travely announced as she followed him

IN idle MOMENTS.

"OW often people will stand aside

but with what 'spontaneity will every
man leap to the aid of the weak in
the power of the strong. This prompt
ness Of action in such cases was admir-
ably Illustrated by a little incident
on East Fifth street few days ago
while long freight train was block
ing the street at the Fort Wayne
tracks.
A boy was riding bicycle beside
several wagons and teams, which were
drawn up awaiting the gates to rise.
ne lost control of the wheel in some
way and ran into one of the horses
in tho team of coal teamster. With
an oath the man leaped from the
wagon and swung his blacksnake with
a crack about the neck Of the young
ster.
The boy cried ont in pain, but the
fellow lifted his whip again. Before
the whip could descend, half dozen
men were about the angry driver,
threatening him with violence. Other
drivers leaped from their wagon seats
and bystanders ran in with angry
words and threatening fists. 1t took
lot of argument before the hostili-
ties finally blew over, but the boy es-
capped further chastisement.
