A Corrupt Alliance

Republican speakers, acting. on the
advice Of Congressman Charles Dick
of the Republican state committee, are
avoiding a discussion of the issues o.
the campaign. They want to divert
the minds of voters, especially farm
ers, by asserting, with much vehe'
mence, that only national questions
should be considered, and that this is
"Hanna's year."
Democratic speakers should bear in
mind that Republican speakers cannot
explain or defend the corrupt alliance
between the present leaders of their
party and the corporations holding
public privileges of immense value by
which the farmers are robbed OF Il
large part of the four and half mil
lion dollars which the railroads ought
to pay in taxes and DO NOT PAY
The Republicans want to so prejudice
the farmers against something that Is
NOT and CANNOT be an issue in this
campaign to the end that they VIII
vote against their own interests

Ignorance or Malice.

Republican editors are either la
mentally ignorant of single tax theor, les
or else they maliciously misrepresent
them to their readers.
The Beacon-Journal of Akron said
yesterday in it's editorial column:
THE single tax touches every land.
owner and lets everyone else go free
That's why Tom Johnson wants it."
1t may be edifying to the editor of
the Beacon-Journal to be told that the
single tax is not tax on land. but
on land values. Under a single tax
regime the railroads, steam and elec-
trio, and various other public serving
corporations wo uldbe compelled to bear
an equitable share of the tax burdens
The farmer, who owns much land
would pay less taxes than the city fell
low who owns little. Under single tax
there would be readjustment and 0
revolution of appraised values. The
poor man would not carry the bulk OF
the load, but 1t would be shouldered
over on the rich fellows, where it just
ly belongs.

That Joint Debate.

1t is announced that Chairman Dick
will quietly ignore" Chairman Salens
challenge for joint debate with SEN
ator Hanna in behalf of John II.
Clarke. The intelligence is not SUR
prising, but it is at least interesting.
There are numerous and convincing
reasons from Senator Hanna's stand
point that suggest to his mind tho
extreme inadvisability of debate with
the Democratic candidate for United
States senator. The only platform on
which Boss Hanna can spread himself
effectively is one ON which he appears
alone, without the embarrassment of
being obliged to answer questions. Mr..
Hanna has never made any defense of
the formal charges of bribery lodged
against him by the Republican senate
of Ohio following his election as sen,
ator six years ago. At that time he
kept himself outside the state, beyond
the jurisdiction Of the senate, and not
only failed to appear in his own de-
fense when charged with penitentiary
olfenses, but even refused to respond
to formal summons to enter a defense.
Mr.. Hanna knows that If he were to
appear on the same platform with John
II. Clarke he would be forced to meet
the serious charges which up to this
time he has always successfully evaded.
He knows that he cannot meet these
charges without incriminating himself
and perhaps subjecting himself to the
just punishment that would have been
inflicted upon him six years ago, If he
had stood trial like a man instead of
running away like a coward.
That is why Chairman Dick quietly
ignores" the challenge to debate. 1t
puts the Republican chairman in
hole not of his own making, but ex-
poses Senator Hanna's political confes,
sion of guilt to the voters of all parties

More Bad Campaigning.
cleveland Plain Dealer.)

(CleVeland Plaln DedleID
A veteran politician once asserted
that a political campaign mas not pc
come "real vigorous" until the lead
ing candidate has been accused or nav
ing killed and eaten his grandfather
From Senator Hanna's remarks at
Sandusky on Tuesday concerning can
didate Johnson 1t would seem that the
campaign is already real vigorous, al
though but just opened. If 1t gath'
ers strength as it proceeds through
the presnt month it will be of cyclonic
fury before election day is reached
What Senator Hanna charged by in
direction was in effect connection be
tween Mayor Johnson and the assas'
sination of President Mckinley. This
is the way he made It out. He charg'
ed that TON l.. Johnson is the nation

ism over Ohio" Socialism is only

"and you should rise up to suppress 1t

late President, the honored Mckinley
was a victim of that damnable heresy."
1neTe Is tne CUdlu VI dTBuIl CIlt
First the premise: Tom Johnson iy
the national leader of the Socialist
party" Senator Hanna evidently as
sumes that his saying so makes it so
even if it be unknown and undreamed
of by everyone else. Then, Socialism
is but short step from anarchy" and
an anarchist killed Mckinley, therefore
Mayor Tom l.. johnson is logically
connected with the crime Of the crack.

For that reason vote against Tom

That may be good enough logic for a
campaign speech, but it is apt to

Time For a Little Sober
Reflection.

Now that the mere sensationalisms
that filled the Republican press cover
ing the period of the Democratic state
convention, during which fabrication
was substituted for news and informa-
tion, have passed away, it is time that
good sound, common sense should have
an inning in the consideration of tho
things which really and directly affect
the people of Ohio.
What do the people of this state, or
any state. for the matter of that
want? Merely q plain, honest, just
government; one in which the rights
of all are impartially protected, with
immunities and special privileges tc
none; one in which taxes shall be just
ly and equitably levied and faithfully
collected; one in which the judgment
of all the citizens shall be consulted;
one in which the public welfare shall
not be sacrificed to private good. In
short, "a government of the people
for the people, and by the people"
This is a generalization of what the
Democratic state convention asked in
behalf of the whole people of Ohio, and
the candidates it nominated stand
sponsor for the reasonable Democratic
request Who are opposed to the re-
quest and why are they opposed?
The solution of this question is one
of great Importance to the people, anS
If they will coollly study it, they Wilt
without regard to former party fealty
enforce the demand in unmistakablt
terms.
The chief clements which prevent the
existence of such proposed form of
state and local government, are the
enormous corporations and the million
aire taX-dodgers. 1t is natural they
should oppose it. Such a government
would give them no undue advantage
over their neighbors.
1t is to the interest OF all good citi-
Gems to bring about the reforms pro-
posed by the Democracy. They will
not be true to their own best interests
IL they fail to embrace the opportunity
for reform.

man clearly and distinctly apart

terests of my clients to affect my judg.
ment on any public question or the
position that ! should take in public
upon it. Satisfied of the eternal JUS
tice of thing, would advocate it at
any cost.
"The law fixing the fare on rail-
roads at three cents a mile was passed
27 years ago Since then the popula-
tion of Ohio has increased over a mil
lion and half; the railroads have
been multiplying and have been
brought to the highest degree of per-
fection, so that they can render the
service at very less cost than they
could then. The railroads themselves
admit that two cents a mile is fair
charge when they sell 1000 mile book
to man who has 500 and $40 in addi-
tion which he must deposit with them
as guarantee that he will use the
book himself. The man with $50 rides
for two cents a mile and the man with
80 cents must pay three cents a mile
The Democratic platform declares that
the railroads should carry all for
two cents mile in Ohio, the same as
they now do in New York state, and
promise you that if the Democrats
control the next legislature everybody
will be riding for two cents mile in
Ohio before next April"
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1903-10-02
The Tax alton Issue.

The constitution of Ohio provides
that real and personal property shall
be taxed uniformly.
The legislature cannot change the
constitution. Hence the spelbinder
and orator, who declares that the cleo
tion of Democratic legislature means
the adoption of Henry Georges single
tax theories. knowingly seek to de-
ceive the voters.
But the most ridiculous lie that has
yet appeared is the statement that the
single tax doctrine If adopted would
be burdensome to the farmers. Less
than one-tenth of the land values in
Ohio is in the farming lands. The
farmers now pay so per cent of the
taxes Hence the Ohio farmer would
be better off under a system of single
tax than he now Is. His cattle, agri.
cultural implements and other personal
property are always found by the as
SCISSOR. The stock and bonds of the
Baers, the Herricks and the Hannas
are always hidden from view.
The Democratic platform pledges
it's legislative candidates to no vain
thing. 1t does advocate such legisla.
tion as will compel the assessment of
steam railroads and other public serv-
ic corporations at not less than their
"salable value as going concerns" In
other words, the party stands for equal
rights toyall mankind and special priv.
ileges to none in the matter of taxa
tion as in all other matters. That Is
why the millionaire railway magnates
like Hanna and their horde of hire
lings abuse and vilify Tom Johnson
They want for their railroads free
franchises and exemption from taxa
ton on their franchise values. They
want to perpetuate men like Guilbert
who, by the abuse of the functions Of
his Office, helped the public service
corporations of Cleveland to escape the
payment of just taxes levied upon
them.
They want men like the contempt.
