The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1903-02-19

ONE of Editor Fred Bush's great
est speeches was when he placed
Senator Moore in nomination in
Athens, two years ago, in which
he said that this Senatorial dis
trict had become a one-term dis
trict. Now Fred has changed his
mind and wants Moore elected to
a second term. Perhaps his speech
on that occasion was only to cover
the case of Senator Bright.

Mary L. Wright, the 8 year old
daughter of DR.. 1. G. Wright, for
obstruction of the bowels caused
by knuckling of the intestine
near the upper portion. AT this
time the patient is doing well and
gives hopes for rapid recovery.
Miss Jessie L. Bean, a trained
nurse from the Protestant Hospital
has charge of the case. DR.. F. NJ +.
Wright unavoidably was detained
at Macarthur, Ohio, and could not
be present at the operation.

The COUNCIL of Logan should
be put upon a non-partizan basis
like the school board. The Demo-
Gratis should nominate but three
and the Republicans three this
spring, and then hereafter have
one Democrat and one Republican
elected each year. There is no
politics in village council.
Good men of both parties should
be selected that are for Logan,
and Logan improvements, first,
last and all the time.

THE marshall fight in the Re-
publican party has resolved itself
into three-corned affair. "Chuck"
Armstrong, @. +. Larimer and Sam

will not be one two-three when he
starts his campaign.

Physiclan Murdered.

Ardmore, I. T., Feb. 8. = DR.. T. ].

gan, has been murdered, presumably
by robbers. DR.. Fisher, who was As
years old, formerly resided at Ste
phensville, Tex. BY marrying a veal

sessed of valuable land near Reagan.
A patient called at Fishers house and
found him dead, shot through the

Indorsed by Texans.

Fort Worth. Tex. Feb. 9.-At the
regular meeting of R. e. Lee camp,
United Confederate Veterans, reso-
luton indorsing the Senator Hanna
bill to pension ex-slaves was intro
duced by State Historian Judge G. G.
Cummings and passed by an almost
unanimous vote. There was some OBJ
lection on the ground that the resolu-
ton might be construed as political
The resolution urges that Texas rep
resentatives in congress support the
Hanna measure to the extent of re-
warding all ex-slaves who remained
at home within the ages set forth in
the bill, or those who went with their
masters in the civil war, but that
those be excepted who were enlisted in
United States volunteer service and
are already on the pension list.

Tangier, Feb. 2.-The sultan's troops
have utterly routed the forces of the
Moorish pretender and captured Blu
Hamara himself A special courier,
who arrived after making a record

FORMER MAYOR A. II. Brooke
and |. ID. Kontner have announced
as Republican candidates for
Mayor of Logan. They are both
good friends to John White, and
out-spoken anti-Grosvenor. They
will probably need get permis-
sion from Col. Sands to get a
place on the ticket.

New York. Feb 9.-Louis Mandel,
dealer in old iron, was murdered in
his office in East Twenty-third street,
his skull being crushed by blows

IT SEEMS that Grosvenor has
captured his own county again,
but he was lucky to have his case
tried early. Perhaps after the
book-agent affair was known he
might not have faired so well.
He will never hear the last of that
swindle during his campaigns.

Indianapolis, Feb. 9.-The national
executive committee of the mine

members were present except James
Wood of Kentucky, William Morgan
of Ohio, Harry Bousfield of Kansas and
Miles Dougherty and j. P. Gallagher
of the anthracite district. When the
board concludes its work President
Mitchell will leave for Philadelphia,
and Vice President Lewis will leave
for eastern Ohio, and from there he
will probably go to the mining district
Of West Virginia. The officers of the

ACCUSED OF BRIBERY.
Several Prominent Citizens Of Logan
Have Serious Charges lusinuated
Against Them.

Editor ONO DEMoCRAT:-I no.
Iiced a very savage article in the
of last week concerning
some of our most prominent citi-
zens and members Of the Board of
Trade, and though l might not
agree with the action of the Board
of Trade in the telephone matter,
the attack of the Sentinel is GER
tainly of the basest and most
ignoble character. will say right
here that 1 believe the Sentinel of
last week hurt the cause of the
Bell Telephone Company more
than anything that has been done
or said vet, and has driven many
of their patrons from them. 1t is
generally believed now that the
Bell managers gave Mr.. Green S
daughter a position in their office
to gain the possible pull that he
could weld with his paper. He
has likewise been very kind to the
Logan Natural Gas Co. because a
daughter is in that office; and to
the railroad company because a
son is employed there. Nobody
has any objections to Mr.. Green
showing his obligation to these
| people, but there is serious objec'
ton, and universal protestatior
among our business men, against
having him accuse eight or nine Of
our most prominent merchants Of
being bribe-takers, in order fol
HIM to sho V to what an extent h'
is under obligations to the Bel
Telephone Company.

TURPIN MANAGED MOORISH PAL
ACE AT COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION.
A. F. Turpin is one of the heavy candi-
dates for several concessions. He is best
for his successful amusement
at the Chicago fair-the Moorish Palace.
Turpin Is an EnglishInan. who has de-
| voted many years of his life to this work.
His experience on the midway includes ten
years Of hard work, which eliminated in
the Moorish amusement.
This show earned enough to yield a revc-
nue. Of $4o.5 500 to Its promoters. and paid in
to the treasury of the EXPOSE
ton a percentage of sl12.COO.
At the Omaha Exposition he operated
five separate concessions. built along diff
ferent lines. One of them headed the list
Of gross receipts.
He is Interested in two of the largest
projected elbows for the st. Louis Midway
one Of them an idea for a mammoth ocean
liner. on which the visitor would live like
q Prince during an imaginary voyage
around the world. The details OF the plan
are not ready for announcement. and the
other concession Ia not in shape to be pro-
claimed by its hackers. b.
Both, Of these schemes, however, are gil
gantic IN conception. and will require small
fortunes to produce. but their originality
seem to promise large returns.
Sam Haller, who is connected with John
r. Byrnes In the Photographic concession,
has a few things up his sleeve. which he is
not disclosing at this time.
Halter will. however. have control OF the,
sale OF the official view books of the e.
position. containing the official views taken
by Byrnes. E. NJ. Bayliss. a former Buffalo
c0ncessionaire, has an application for an

Tn those attributes money has no part"
One St. Louis collector has perhaps the

Breton as valuable In its class as the Van

insly beautiful Rousseau.
Only In rare instances can a painting by
one OF the old masters be found in the pri-

The taste Of the ST. Louis collector seems
to tend toward the works of modern artists.

of which I have some slight knowledge"
