WHEN THE PIE is CUT
9AtiNEviLLE PATRIOTS ALL
WANT A PIECE.
At Least Half a Dozen Already Ac-
knowledsed as Being Willing to
Accept Something.

Salineville,, Nov. 21.--The focal lead
ers in the Democratic party are not
letting any time slip By before they
attempt to get share of the polit-
ical pie that Ia to be distributed when
Governor-elect Pattison takes his seat
in January.
No less than six of the faithful in
this village are seeking political ap-
sentiments at this time and the field
is likely to become overladen before
the time for the appointments to be
made. Joseph Battin, one of the
strong young Democrats of the village,
has already a numper of strong en-
dorsements from the county leaders
asking that he be appointed guard at
either the penitentiary or the Reform
atory at Mansfield. He has the endorse
ment of Mayor AL. Carlisle, Of Salem,
as well as a majority of the county
executive committee and the local
committee and he will seek the influ-
ence of one of the strong Democrats
in Stark county who was a candidate
for a state Office at the last election.
John j. Higgine, who has served the
village for the past five years as viii
Iage marshal would like to be a guard
at the ohio pen, and will make tour
this week to enlist assistance in land
ing the job.
Wesley J, Wright, miner in the viii
lage, is out for the Office of deputy
mine inspector for this district and he
is bending every effort since the elec-
tion to get the much coveted position.
Robert Wheatley, one of the bright
est young miners of the village, Is
also after the mine inspector job and
has already some strong endorsements
in his possession. Wheatley was able
to reduce the Republican majority in
the village from 200 10 63 at the last
election Tor mayor of the village and
is one of the strongest labor men In
! this sub-district.
John O'Donnell would be satisfied
with an assistant sergeant-at-arms in
the senate and is looking toward land
| ing the once.
John r. Doyle would be well satisfied
with district Inspector of workshops
and factories should the Office go beg.
ging. which is unlikely,
Al. Carlisle seems to be the disposei
of the goods things, in the county
/ and his endorsements seem ita be
eagerly sought after.

SENATOR BURTON
GOVERNMENT CLOSES ITS CASE
AGAINST HIM
Many Checks and Letters introduced
in Evidence, Some Of Which, Look
We'll, a Little OF.

st. Louis, Mo-, Nov. 2l.-The govern
ment closed lts size in Senator Bur
tons case at p. III. today before
Judge Vendeventer in the ie deral codrt.
Checks and drafts received Dy senator
burton from the Rlalto Grain IL Sc
curities Company, amounting in all
to $500 were Introduced in evidence.
4 his sum, he is charged with having
received from the now defunct broker
age hrm 1or using his innuence IN It's
behalf before the postoince depart
ment.
Thomas 3. Harlan, attorney for the
company at the time Burton was en-
gagged as special counsel in Washing
ton was used by the government to
identify the cancelled papers. Letters
sent by Harlan to Burton and Bur-
toms replies regarding the affairs OF
the company were also introduced and
indentifed by Harlan. Through his
attorneys Burton admitted his sigma
ture to the letters he had written
and his endorsement on the checks
and drafts. d.
Among the letters wereone in which
Burton called Harlan's attention to
the fact that he had not received his
monthly pay. In connection with this
was introduced the company's letter
of apology to Burton in reply, in which
1t was stated that the confusion in
cident to the Indictment and acquittal
without trial of Major Hugh C. Dennis,
president of the company, was respon-
sible for Burton's monthly salary be-
ing overlooked. II was promised that
the oversight would not occur again.
Strenuous objections by Attorney
Lehman to ruling made by Judge
Vardeventer just prior to the noon
adjournment indicate that Senator
Burton's defense, in addition to his
claim that he acted within his rights
as an attorney in accepting $2,500
! fee from the Rialto Grain &c Securi7
ties Co. will be the claim that the
report of the postoffice inspectors, rath-
er than Burton's efforts, caused the
pon-issuance of fraud orders against
| the brokerage concern.

of the Sad Death.

-
On Monday morning a lad, tear-dim-
med, stood beside the Stark Electric

ingly looked at the car. When, asked
il he was going--to get ON the car
the lad said he wanted to, but had no
money. There was sorrow depicted

began to course their way down his
cheeks. There was something about

Between sobs he cast a Wishful
glance at the car. He was invited to
step aboard the car by the conductor
and he gladly accepted. When asked
where he wished to go, he said, Ito
Alliance" He said his name was
Shriver. He was going 10 school at
Garfield and had just heard that his
father, Allen Shriver, had been mur.
dered and he had started afoot to
Alliance, distance of 23 miles.
He hoped to get there in time for
the funeral, at least. His fare was paid
by the motorman and conductor oi
the car. Then the little fellow, ap
parently IA years of age, was toll
that he was too late; that his father
had been buried and he could see him
no more. This opened a fresh foun
tain of grief, and his heart broke forth
anew in tears. He came to Alliance
and found the story true. From Ali

mother at Marlboro with a heavy
heart and sorrow that knew nc
