One of the strangest features of the
congressional fight is the fact that the
Kennedy workers and followers who
came to Canton run around and asso-
ciated with the faction that is opposed
TO Kennedy. They are not a bit back

with the wrong crowd in this county
and that it was an awful mistake.

Every paid writer and every corpor-
alton controlled paper in the country
is engaged in hurting broadsides at
Bryan since he declared for govern
ment ownership of railroads, but the
financial jackals who wax rich from
the spoils taken from the public are
shaking in their boots Notwithstanding
this TRADE emanating from their hire
lings. Those who should know say
that Bryan by his action at New York
proved that he is a true patriot 1t
is very generally understood that a
proposition was made to him that if
he would play with the railroads and
the trusts that he would be elected
president These elements were at
war with Roosevelt and desired his
downfall. Bryan proved himself man
by taking such an advanced stand that
Wall street stood aghast. They found
their plans foiled by the man who
they tried to make their tool and Bry-
an has the satisfaction of seeing them
fall back TO submission under Roose-
welt. Even If the course he has taken
defeats him for the presidency he has
risen to a pinnacle that will forever
endear him to the hearts of liberty
loving Americans.
DR.. Moulton, the politician -postmas-
ter of Canal Fulton, took occasion to
pay high tribute to the News at the
Republican meeting on Saturday The
doctor received his inspiration direct
from the fountain source through the
plosCnt congressman and Postmaster
Clark, echoing what both of these gen.
tlemen have been repeating from time
TO time. He pronounced all of the
agitation against Kennedy as being the
result of the work of the News. 1t is
true that the News is the only paper
in the district that has given publicity
to the desires of the masses of the
Republican party. Every other paper
in the district seems to have been
so thoroughly under the control of
the machine that the rank and file has
been compelled to look to the News
for information. While the publicity
given by this paper has no doubt aid
ed greatly in the contest, yet it is
giving too much credit to say that the
paper has caused all the agitation.
The reason will be found deeper than
this. II is the desire of the party
workers to assert some independence
and not be handled like puppets In
the hands of those who are raking in
all of the benefits. The. testimony OF
the Kennedy following in placing all

In an instant Siliko tripped. throwing Mccarthy headlong beneath the hooCs of The Abee and in front of nine other horses in the race.

Mccarthy staggered back to the stand to claim foul against The Abbe Neither Silil1O nor The Abbe finished the heat.

the fact that tram car blocked the fall
of earth and sheltered him in a cavity
formed beneath it.
For several days the rescners have
been in touch with Hicks. and he has
kept up conversation with them through
the tube which was sent down through
the bank Of earth to supply him with
lnourishment.

lpected TO be able to pull him out any
moment, but the treacherous sand kept
lhltering in through creyices Of the drift.
Threatening to suifocate the man they
were laboring SO hard to save.
The utmost caution was needed. for
the slightest false move would mean the
death Of Hicks
Early Saturday night the rescuers
were able to shake hands with the inn
prisoned man, but vet it was too dan
gerous TO attempt to pull him out.
Tie first touch Of human hands thrill
led Hicks as, he said, nothing had ever
ldone before, and when plug Of tobacco
was passed to him he shouted for JOY.
His Wonderful Experience.
The experience Of Hicks has probably
never been paralIeled.
I Fifteen days ago he was entombed in
the Edison Electric eompany's tunnel in
which six miners were buried, and 10
days have passed since it was discovered
THAT Hicks was alive He was saved BY
being caught in a small space under an
overturned tram ear.
For 10 days rescuing party, working
lin four shifts, has dug frantically toward
Hicks, day and night Noufishment has
been passed to the imprisoned man
through piece Of gas pipe. He was
strong and courageous, talking and jok-
ling with his rescuers through the pipe,
and suffered principally from lack Of
sleep For the last As hours the men
digging in the tunnel had been so near
him that he could feel the jar from
their picks and shovels, and the sIis.
pense kept him awake day and night.
