the sallow complexion and torpid liver.

A Lame Explanation.

A gentleman named Christiancy
who labors under the title of acting
assistant attorney general of the post.
office department, opened his mouth
and spoke yesterday regarding the
turf investment schemes. He said
fraud orders we're not issued against
the swindling concerns because there
was absence of proof. However, he
advocates the enactment of law
making such schemes fraudulent.
There is good reason to believe that
the postoffice department did not ex-
ert itself hard enough to get nervous
prospration in attempting to close the
turf concerns. IT had had experience
with similar get-rich-quick schemes,
and it knew what was bound to hap
pen. Now, of course. it is full of wise
saws and liberal with advice. 1t
would be interesting to know how the
department could obtain proof under
new law if it was unable to under
the present one.
The thousands of victims of the
swindlers will not be inclined to ac-
cent the explanation of the acting as
sistant attorney general of the postof-
fee department-Toled Bee.

One-seventh of the population of the
United States is interested in the so
luton of the negro question, 1t is q
mighty problem and casts its shadow
over the country's future.
Secretary Roots recent declaration
that the attempt to enforce negro suf-
frage and political or social equality
was a failure, with the confession that
he was unable TO present a plan by
which it can be made anything else
than failure. has caused much inter-
esting discussion, of the question north
and south and there is general ac-
quiescenCe in the conclusion OF the
secretary, although many maintain
that ii is wrongful that such conditions
should exist. But when it comes 10
pointing out a remedy no cne is wise

The people Of the state of Ohio in
general, and the members of the state
legislature in particular, will be inter-
ested to know that Canton has man,
who has fr,lly mastered the munic-
ipal code. William A. Lynch has
found that the code really means
something and he is prepared to
elucidate 1t to all persons, who have
not given it sufficient study to enable
them to grasp its elusive features Mr..
Lynch goes to Massillon tonight to
address the citizens upon this sub
ject. Cantonians have always held Mr..
Lynch's ability in the highest esteem
but now they will regard him With
wonder akin to awe. Any man who
can take conglomeration of Coxism,
bossism and political pullism like the
Ohio municipal code and extract from
it an intelligent plan of city govern
ment. is entitled to the highest en-
comium in this world and a three

Texas Situation.

leNdS oetudUOus
Last year the anti-saloon forces So
cured the passage OF the Beal law un-
der which a number of Ohio munici
palities have voted on the saloon ques-
ton, "a goodly portion Of them going
dry, and Texas experienced local op-
ton wave. This year the anti-saloon
forces in the Lone Star state have
been so encouraged by last years re-
suits that they have been preparing to
demand prohibition law for the
state, and the saloon people have pre-
pared bill that is radical in its pro-
visions and quite as stringent as ha1
been seen among the bills for regulat
ing the liquor traffic. 1t provides
that each saloonkeeper in renewing
his license must take oath that he
has not violated any of the statutes
of the state; that he has permitted no
minors or students to diink in his
place; that no gambling Is permitted; ;
that the saloon is not kept open after
hours or on Sunday, and that II he
does not so swear or is detected in
violating any statute his license is to
be taken away from him and he Is to
be prohibited from engaging In the
saloon business for a period of two
years. false swearing is to be pun
ished by long term in the peniten-
tiary. 1t looks very much as IL the
liquor business will be under st'ict
control in Texas or outlawed alto
gether.

The action of the Canton-Akron

Stark company the use of its east
track qsI Market street is as welcome
as ii is unexpected. The people OF
Canton want the Stark line and the
local company could take no quicker
course to win the good graces of the
citizens. The very sudden change OF
front on the part of the C. & A. line
however, is responsible for the sug-
picion that a merger OF the systems
may be effected at no distant date.
But such move will be matter of
little concern to the people.

a Democratic Mormon, elected to the

Republican, and it is alleged upon
good authority, that Mark Hanna sent
an agent to Utah, during the last
campaign, to promise the Mormons
that, II they would vote the Republi

senator. 1t now turns out, that the
Republican bosses say the bargain
must be carried out and Smoot seated.
