TOO MUCH HANNA. The crushing defeat the republican party of the city of Cleveland sustained at the polls last Monday emphasizes the fact made plain in a number of local defeats during the past two or three years that the republican party of this city and county is suffering from "too much Hanna." When the city republican convention which nominated the ticket mowed down at the polls last Monday by an avalanche of votes, inserted as a plank in its platform the proposition of Senator M. A. Hanna's street car lines upon which they (the lines) sought a 25-year renewal of franchise, and did this (the convention) under the lash of Hanna and his lieutenants, the party, as far as the ticket nominated in that convention was concerned, committed political suicide. This is the truth in a nutshell. It is also true that there were many other minor matters which helped to influence the unfortunate result, as far as our party is concerned, but the fact remains that the one thing which overshadows all others to such a degree as to almost obscure them, is, that the republican party of the city of Cleveland on Monday last suffered from "too much Hanna." Harvey D. Goulder and a majority of the other candidates for leading offices upon the republican ticket were excellent men, exceptionally strong in every way as candidates. If they had not been loaded down with "too much Hanna" there would have been absolutely no question as to the favorable outcome of the contest. The ticket, with one or two exceptions, did not go down to defeat because of the weakness of the candidates or because of anything against them of a personal nature. There is but one correct explanation of the defeat, and that we have given above. The sooner the republicans of this city and county fully realize and appreciate the fact, and throw off the Hanna yoke, the quicker will the party march to victory locally. Senator Hanna should keep his hands off of local politics, and above all things should not attempt to foist any care of his private interests, especially those of his street car corporation, upon the party in this city, as was the case in the campaign just closed. ONE "REV." THOMAS DIXON. When poor Tom Dixon declares that a war of races must eventually ensue and that the entire Negro population will be swept from the continent, he shows himself to be extremely incendiary. The wish seems to be father to the thought. At least brother Dixon aspires to be sensational and makes a bid for cheap notoriety. We believe in a progressive Christian sentiment, which sooner or later will evolve a spirit of philanthropy that the better element of this great government will be always found on the side of right and justice. It is the grosser and more savage element that make war upon the colored people, and will in such an event be arrayed against government and law. The colored people have always been law-abiding and they will so record themselves even in the face of conflict. There will be thousands of loyal hearts standing out for the principles of righteous government, and the Afro-American will ally himself with those who love justice and will plead the cause of the wronged and the poor. It is a barberous thought and one that belongs to the remote and dark ages to predict that a great and Christian people would tolerate or invite a war of races. The colored people have no inclination to be aggressive. They have always been patient and forbearing and the enlightened Christian whites would never permit the shame of such a disgraceful conflict to come upon them. To-day the whole Christian world appreciates the tendencies of the doctrine of the religion of Jesus Christ. That doctrine inculcates nobler and sublimer purposes in the grand march of human life. The Afro-American may, like the Pilgrims, seek homes in some foreign land, but he will never inaugurate a system of warfare against the strong race. He will acquire an education and accumulate wealth, and these would serve as a means to aid him in the emigration movement to other lands, but the mass of our people could find no inducement to provoke a conflict with the whites. They constitute the labor element of the south, and should they be forced by foreign competition to yield the palm to the victors, they will in emulation of the example of other races seek homes in South America, in the islands of the sea, in Europe, Asia and Africa and wherever liberty may be found, there, too, shall be his country. In many respects the Negro is a cheerful and contented being, and though he is called to-day to confront a thousand barriers and embarrasments, yet he fully realizes the magnitude of the obstacles in his pathway. He glories in whatever serves as a contribution to the cause of the republic and he would do nothing to invalidate the honor and greatness of the nation. But when the worst comes to the worst and the insurmountable and the unconquerable virus might seek to baffle him in his rightful claims, he will find a refuge and a home beyond the country which he has so long served and defended. The acquisition of wealth and knowledge shall prove a means of grace to help us on to better conditions, and nothing daunted nor dismayed in our endeavor for a happy and peaceful life, we shall lift our banners to live again for God and the race. The cause we love is dearer than continual strife, and it would be a vain and needless sacrifice to engage in a useless and suicidal struggle. It was a heart of mischief that prompted Rev. Dixon to this prophecy for the destruction of any portion of the human family. Reliance upon Almighty God might have inspired a feeling of righteous solicitude, but the demon of malignity impels a wish that is father to the thought, and Rev. Dixon unbosoms his soul. The American government is exceptionally magnanimous and humane, and though the deadly spirit of hate may continue to brood in the south against the Negro, the north and the south will remain forever and eternally divided on a plain matter between right and wrong, between truth and error, between mind and physical force, the Negro need not necessarily be a party to it. Rev. Dixon may have the gift of prophecy and know all things, but without charity and the true love of God animating his being for all men and races and for righteousness, he is as a sounding brass and tinkling symbol. He is nothing. AN UNHALLOWED TONGUE, BITTER IN PERSECUTION. At a meeting of the Patria club of New York, Rev. George C. Lorimer delivered an address in which he said: "The Negro question is nearing a crisis and the forming of a lily-white party in the north and south will be the result. Once the Negro is convinced that he holds the balance of power at election time, he will demand power from the party to which he is allied, then race antagonism will rend the land and cause untold suffering to the Negro." Upon what authority Rev. Lorimer assumes to thus unbosom himself cannot be determined. One thing is manifest, and that is, Rev. Lorimer seems to be dreaming or he is out of his mind. It is to be regretted that not a few of our white divines are more disposed to place the colored man in the most unfavorable light before the world, than plead the cause of fair play and righteous dealing. It matters not that Rev. Lorimer is a minister, he betrays an unpardonable stupidity and a malignity quite unbecoming a Christian divine. The Negro very well knows his place in American politics, then why should he be expected to make unreasonable demands? Why should the weaker element be expected to do what no other race has done? We are satisfied that race antagonism can never come through the aggressiveness of black men. In no way has he stood as a menace to the country, because in both the north and south the whites have been the dominant race and the Negro could vainly hope to aspire to power superior to that of his white brother. Why should the black man demand unreasonable and unfair concessions in the face of the fact that the white man assumes the right to dictate, and as such constitutes the governing power? But the American people are progressive in more respects than one and will be guided by motives far higher than that sordid spirit which courts a conflict of races. There will be no two political parties growing out of a contest between black and white. Rev. Lorimer is in grave error when he offers a prophecy so much in keeping with a prejudiced heart. It is to be regretted could we believe that the learned and the great of the dominant race should so far forget themselves as to nurse and fan the flame of passion and hate against those who look to the better disposed of the white people to pilot the ship of state through the dangers which so much beset them. As in the south, so in all sections of the country, it will be the purpose of the Negro to make terms with his white brother, and if called to engage in a righteous conflict, the black man will be found then, as in all other issues, joining hands with his white friends. A conflict of such a nature may come, but there will be an army of white men espousing the cause of justice against wrong and oppression, battling for the triumph of principle and honor as against outrage and crime. In any and all great movements in this country the Afro-American has stood for his country against treason and rebellion. As in the prohibition and other great movements, the Afro-American has been allied on either side with his white brother. The white man will need and demand his cooperation. Afro-Americans are just like other men and will vote where seems to lie their best interest. Parties may disband and the people may reorganize, but the ridiculous and idle venture of organizing parties simply to oppress or destroy a weaker race will never take place in Christian America. It is possible that parties in their political moorings may wander away from the fundamental principles upon which they were founded. The creation of new parties may come about, but it will be in the interest of reform and the more progressive principles for which all good and brave men aspire to maintain. Free colored men be- THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, APRIL 11, 1903. fore the war voted with their white allies in the state of North Carolina. Our country is widening in the spirit of patriotism and warm devotion to the cause of equal rights and free government. The principles of human justice will become the governing force to guide and direct the ship of state. But no such paltry views as are advanced by Rev. Lorimer can intervene against the equity and justice of a righteous dealing people. Thank God, the sentiment of justice is a dominant principle among the people, and while it may be the prayer of Rev. Lorimer that the race shall be annihilated, let it be remembered that eternal justice is a reality in the Christian world. Wrong forever on the throne, But that scaffold sways the future And behind the dim unknown Stands God within the shadow Keeping watch above His own. A GREAT WORK. What the White Rose Home is Doing—Our People Restricted to the Balconies and Galleries. New York City.—A musicale was given by the White Rose Mandolin club, Prof. H. Gladstone Marshall, director, in the White Rose home parlors, 217 E 86th street, on Thursday evening, March 26, to purchase musical instruments. A splendid program was rendered and there was a large attendance. Mrs. Victoria Earl Matthews is at the head of the home. The latter is for good girls who work and it is one of the greatest works our people here are doing. They have a mandolin club, learn basket weaving, sewing, clay molding, and last week they had a professor to teach them French. They also have a kindergarten, kitchen garten and a mother's club. Mr. Marshall teaches the mandolin and piano. Mrs. Matthews wrote several books, also three plays, two of which were acted in the Brooklyn theater. Miss Mattie Sands formerly of Cleveland, O., is a "White Rose" girl and is taking lessons on the piano from Mr. Marshall. The Amicus Athletic club gave their first annual reception and ball the same evening at Majestic hall. Music by Miss H. L. Anderson. Miss Sands attended it.—Williams and Walker are playing in a Broadway theater. The manager makes our people sit in the balconies and galleries. They ought not to attend. RESOLUTIONS. At a recent meeting of the Young Men's Progressive Political club of the Twelfth ward, a committee was appointed to draft the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted at the Tuesday evening meeting of the organization and ordered given to the daily papers of the city for publication: Whereas, As it is a notorious fact, the result of long and bitter experience, not only in this county, but throughout the country, that the convention plan of making nominations for municipal offices is rotten to the core as exemplified in boss rule, "slate" candidates and political intrigue, all ultimately, as a rule, proving disastrous to the party, and Whereas, The vast majority of the republicans of the city of Cleveland have twice indorsed the popular vote plan of making nominations which gives to all members of the party an opportunity to assist in the selection of their candidates and which is infinitely superior to the boss-hidden convention plan, therefore be it. Resolved, That we, the members of the Young Men's Progressive Republican club of the Twelfth ward, do hereby denounce the convention plan of making nominations and most heartily indorse the popular vote plan, and call upon all good republicans throughout the city and county to insist upon a return to the latter in the interest of the party and better municipal government. Signed, HARRY C. SMITH GEORGE W. COPES, A Disgraceful Affair. One of the most disgraceful affairs of a political nature this city has had in a good many years occurred at Woodliff hall last week Wednesday evening during the progress of the democratic meeting over which Geo. Smith, assistant sidewalk inspector, presided. The speakers of the evening were Messrs. Armistead, of Gallipolis, Howe and others. For about two hours uproar after uproar was created and insult after insult hurled at the first named gentleman by Henry and Gussie Eubanks, Willie Green, Willie Clifford, John Fulton, Tom Shorts and George Myers, of the "Little Black Tammany." Persons present say their conduct was something disgraceful in the extreme. Their evident purpose was to break up the meeting, but they failed to do so. Persons present say that Mr. Armistead is an adapt at repartee, and in the wordy fusilade simply "skinned alive" the Willies and others of the disturbers. When individuals descend to such ruffianism in an effort to break up a meeting of any political complexion they injure themselves in the estimation of all intelligent and sensible people more than they do the persons, objects of their attack. Republicans and democrats alike in attendance upon that meeting went from it with the bitter words of denunciation for the part these alleged locally prominent Negro republicans took in it with a view to breaking it up.

Snyder, of No. 94 Norman street, is a thoroughly reliable, honest and honorable man of the race, who is up-to-date in all real estate transactions. Patronize him. The Christian Alliance mission is holding successful meetings at the Central Friendly Inn. Rev. Chambers and Rev. Robinson, of Pittsburg, are among the visiting evangelists present. Just as we predicted, so things resulted on election day—Charles E. Marshall, candidate for councilman-at-large, was completely "snowed under." Another black eye for the "Little Black Tammany." The Building Laborers' union had a large turnout at their meeting at Blahd and Heiler's hall, March 30. Fully 200 Afro-Americans are enrolled on the books. Clarence Taylor is secretary. Elmer Daugherty, for several years a guard in the Ohio penitentiary, Columbus, who has been very ill for several weeks, has returned to the city. He is accompanied by his wife and two little children. "Chickens come home to roost." Peddling those malicious flag-lie circulars has proven bad business for a number of the members of the "Little Black Tammany" and will continue to for some years to come. Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Hailstock and daughter were guests of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Henderson, of Newton street Sunday week and listened to the K. of P. sermon at St. Andrew's church. Mr. Hailstock is a member of Edwin Cowles Lodge of this city. Aged John Williams, of No. 50 Berg street, who had nearly turned white, was found dead on the floor of his home early Tuesday. His death was due to natural causes, in spite of the fact that a superstitious reporter of The Cleveland Press insists that "de hoodoo killed ole man Williams." Miss Mattle Sands, formerly of this city, is now in New York City, getting along nicely. She is working in the White Rose home, at the head of which is Mrs. Victoria Earle Matthews. The home is for good girls who work, and is one of the great works our people there are doing. Hon. R. E. McKisson was secured as a speaker for the East End Republican club's meeting last week Thursday evening by the editor of The Gazette at the request of Mr. James R. Snyder. Among others who spoke at the meeting was Henry Eubanks, whose dialect recitations are more or less generally known locally, and John Green, clerk in the stamp department at Washington, D. C. We have not as yet been able to learn Dehrers how many tears, if any, John shed during the course of his remarks. There is, however, but little doubt that he delivered the same old stereotyped "Befo' de Wah" talk. The Aufait Athletic club of the Alta House was organized in January under Mr. Ammon's leadership with a membership of ten young ladies. The following are the officers: Pearle J. Crawford, president; Mae Alexander, vice; Bessie Early, secretary; Ella Early, treasurer. Clifford fired out of the county clerk's office, Marshall fired out of county auditor's office and defeated last Monday, Willie Green fired out of the county treasurer's office, is the record up to date. All this accomplished in a few years. More to follow. The Ladies' Aid society of Mt. Zion church gave an entertainment Monday evening. The officers of the Missionary society of this church are: Mrs. Kate Edmonds, president; Mrs. Emily Lewis, vice; Mrs. Jesse Sides, treasurer; Mrs. Wm. Beidleman, secretary.' Jere Brown is superintendent of the Sunday-school. A reception was tendered the Fisk Jubilee Singers march 26 by Mr. and Mrs. J. Walter Wills.

U. held a very enthusiastic meeting last Sunday night at the Second A. M. E. church. Mrs. Rosa Johnson, president, gave the opening address. Mrs. Mitchell read an excellent paper. Mrs. B. F. Ramey spoke on cigarettes and tobacco. Miss Grace Willis sang. The choir rendered excellent music and Miss Stella Gainer read an appropriate selection. Poor little Charlie Marshal! Lay him to rest in the secret archives of the little "Black Tammany" headquarters along with the flag lie circular of 1899. Our people of this community are to be congratulated upon his signal defeat, and we should felicitate one another upon the fact that he ran so far behind his ticket—about 500 votes. On April 1 a birthday party was given Louise Snyder at the home of her friend, Miss Leatha Owens, of 34 Hackman street. About 20 young ladies and gentlmen were present and all spent a pleasant evening. Miss Snyder received a number of pretty and valuable presents. The president and vice president of the Philligan Social club, Messrs. Chas. Spearman and George A. Sisco, attended. Mr. L. G. Adkins has opened a first-class restaurant at No. 493 Central avenue. The place is roomy and neat. Mr. Adkins is thoroughly familiar with the business, having been a waiter and caterer for many years. Our people should take pleasure in patronizing Mr. Adkins, thus assisting one of the race in business. In order to make his business the success it should be, Mr. Adkins needs your support and should get it. DO YOUR DUTY! Miss Dazallah Underwood (the American Nightingale) scored a brilliant success and had to respond no fewer than four times to imperative encores. Mr. McAdoo rose to bring the audience to reason, but they would not give him a hearing. After the fourth solo by this lady he was able to enter his protest, which he did in a very good natured manner, receiving a round of applause in return. All the lady soloists received handsome floral tributes—Sydney (Australia) Morning Herald. It is not generally known among our colored population that the Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company is now writing insurance in their favor, as it once did not, but permit me to say that this is now a fact, and Mr. Frank E. Minter, who was for six years private secretary at Booker T. Washington's school in Tuskegee, Ala., has been secured to write insurance of this company in favor of colored people. He can be seen at 402 Superior building (opposite City hall) from 8:30 to 11:00 o'clock a. m., or his residence (42 Maple street) in the evening. When questioned by a represntative of The Gazette, Messrs. Thomas Fleming and Henry Taylor both denied having given to the Leader reporter the story that paper published last week to the effect that the Young Men's Progressive Political club of the Twelfth ward had changed its determination to oppose the election of Charles E. Marshall, candidate for councilman-at-large on the republican ticket, at Monday's election. Both men said they were in in sympathy with the stand the club had taken. The organization is to be complimented upon its good work Rev. E. D. Dandridge is greatly improved and may be able to attend Shiloh church to-morrow (Sunday). Easter exercises will be held in the afternoon. The Young Ladies' Loyalty club, Miss Esther Irving, president; Miss Mattie Curtiss, secretary, will render a good program Thursday, April 16, the money realized to go to the grand rally fund on May 31. Nearly every participant will be a member of the club. Be sure to attend and help the young ladies. After the program, refreshments will be served in the basement. Rev. THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND. O., SATURDAY. APRIL 11. 1903. Stone and Rev. Chandler (white) preached at Shiloh Sunday morning and evening respectively. Rev. J. S. Jackson, of Mt. Zion church, preached at the union meeting Sunday afternoon. A little study of Monday's election returns shows that Charles E. Marshall received the lowest vote of all the candidates on the republican ticket, being beaten by his opponent, McKenna, democratic councilman-at-large-elect, to the tune of 4,883 votes, nearly 5,000. Marshall received from 1,000 to 1,500 votes less than each of the other republican candidates for councilman-at-large with the exception of Sanders, who received about 500 more than Marshall and was an especial object of attack for his people (white). Marshall can now fully appreciate the dose he vainly tried to assist in administering when the editor of The Gazette was a candidate for the legislature in 1895 and 1899. Services at St. Andrew's church tomorrow will be of a special nature. Early communion at 7 a. m. Morning prayer and sermon at 10:30 a. m., concluding with holy communion. Mrs. Beulah West will sing "Hallelujah! He is Risen," by Neidlinger. The Knights Templars will hold special thanksgiving services at 3 p. m. Sermon by the rector, Rev. E. S. Doan. Special music by choir. At 7:30 p. m. the evening prayer will be sung. Rev. Doan will follow with a short address, after which Manney's beautiful cantata, "The Resurrection," will be rendered by the choir of 20 voices, as follows: Grand prelude and opening chorus, "He Is Risen;" solo, "For Since by Man Came Death." Miss Toles; Part I., The Empty Tomb; recit., baritone, "Upon the First Day of the Week," Mr. Randolph; trio, "Who Shall Roll Away the Stone?" Mrs. Beulah West, Mrs. Anna Smith and Mrs. Grace Brown; solo, alto, "God Shall Wipe Away All Tears," Mrs. Brown; baritone, "But When They Came to the Place," Mr. James Lewis; solo, tenor, "Why Seek Ye the Living Among the Dead?" Mr. F. Hackley; chorus, "Angels, Roll the Rock away!" Part II., Mary Magdalene; recit., baritone, "And They Went Out Quickly," Mr. Randolph; quartette, "Blessed are They," Miss Toles, Mrs. Brown, Mr. Leatherman and Mr. Lewis; soprano solo, "They Have Taken Away My Lord," Mrs. West; chorus, "O Death! Where is Thy Sting?" Finale. Chorus, "Blessing and Honour." Alex. O. Taylor, choirmaster and organist; James Tolbert, assistant.

Novel Method of Ascertaining What a Loss of Twenty Pounds Looked Like. A well-known judge, who is as famous for his wit as his corpulency, was much disturbed in mind by his tendency to ever-increasing stoutness. He tried many remedies. At length a friend suggested that he should take a course of treatment at certain hot springs. He immediately set out for the place, sojourned for a few weeks at it, managed to get rid of a good deal of superflous flesh, and returned home in a most happy and jocular frame of mind, relates an exchange. On the first morning after his return, when he was wending his way to the courthouse, he came to the butcher shop where his family were supplied with meat. Marching inside, he said: "Cut me off 20 pounds of pork." The butcher sharpened his knife and at once complied. The judge looked at the meat for a minute or two and then walked off. "Shall I send the pork to your house, my lord?" inquired the butcher, who felt that the judge had overlooked instructions. "Oh, no," was the reply, given with a smile. "I don't want it. I have fallen off just 20 pounds, and I only wanted to have an idea of how much it was!" A Farmer's Good Story. Velpen, Ind., April 6th:—Wm. O'B. Sullivan, a highly respected farmer of this place, tells a personal experience to show that there is still some genuineness and honest worth to be met with in this age in which so many frauds are reported. "Yes, I have been humbugged," said Mr. Sullivan, "and when I was so ill with the Rheumatism, Kidney and Heart Trouble, I used a good deal of stuff that claimed to be remedies for these diseases only to find them worthless. "But, as you know, I did find the genuine remedy after all and I had not been taking Dodd's Kidney Pills very long before I knew that they were an honest remedy that would do all and more than was claimed for them. They cured me, made a well man of me and I am now as sound as I ever was.

Johnson Again Successful in Cleveland—Republicans Win in Cincinnati and Columbus —Jones Victorious in Toledo—Other Results. Cleveland, April 8.—The official count shows that Tom L. Johnson's plurality over Harvey D. Goulder, republican candidate for mayor, is 5,786. The council is democratic by a large majority. Cincinnati, April 7.—Complete returns from the 228 precincts in Cincinnati give Fleischmann, republican, 42,907; Ingalls, fusionist, 26,287; Swing, socialist, 3,774; Martin, prohibitionist, 845; total 73,813. Fleischmann's plurality is 16,620, majority 12,001. The council and school boards each stand 20 republicans and four democrats. The entire republican city ticket, including all the boards, was elected by about the same vote as that of Fleischmann. The villages of Bond Hill, Evanston, Hyde Park and Winton Place were annexed to Cincinnati by a decisive vote. Toledo, April 7.—Returns from 35 precincts out of 105 give Jones, nonpartisan 2,500; Dowd, republican, 1,860; Edson, democrat, 793. Columbus, April 7.—Robert H. Jeffrey (rep.), is elected mayor over John N. Hinkle (dem.), the incumbent, by aboutt 1,800. Returns from 75 out of 96 precincts give Jeffrey 1,257 plurality. Dayton, April 7.—With a heavy vote, due to the change of official tenure under the new code, Dayton will elect Mayor Snyder (dem.), by possibly 600 majority and the greater part of the remainder of the democratic ticket by a narrow majority. The city is nominally democratic. Sandusky, April 7.—The democratic mayor and auditor were elected here without opposition. The city council stands six to one democratic. Zanesville, April 7.—The republicans have elected William B. Dixon mayor of this city, and every candidate on the ticket excepting two councilmen and two assessors. The plurality is about 300. Republicans cast a heavy vote, while democratic disgust with Mayor Holden's administration made itself felt. Findlay, April 7.—Indications point to the election of Rufus E. Taylor, republican candidate for mayor. Returns from a majority of the precincts give him a majority of 151 over the present incumbent, C. R. Metcalf. The remainder of the republican ticket will be elected with the possible exception of the candidate for auditor. Canton, April 8.—Semi-official returns on Monday's election show the election of W. H. Smith, republican, for mayor, by 21, and the remainder of the republican ticket with two exceptions by average pluralities of 600. W. A. Lynch, democrat, a prominent attorney and manufacturer, who openly supported McKinley in 1900, is elected a member of the council at large, and the democrats also elected two ward councilmen and one member of the board of public service. Akron, April 7.—The democrats claim the election of Kempel for mayor by 200. Twenty-four out of 34 precincts show Kempel 2,467 and Doyle (rep.), 2,344. The democrats elect William Durand auditor, and the rest of the republican ticket is elected by good majorities. Youngstown, April 7.—With the exception of the mayor the republicans elected the entire city and township ticket. A fight was made against Frank L. Brown, republican candidate for mayor, as a result of the "wide open" policy pursued during the past year. William T. Gibson, the democratic nominee, carried four of the seven wards. He ran strongest in what were regarded as sure republican wards. Gibson won out by 200. The balance of the republican ticket was lected by majorities ranging from 300 to 800. Portsmouth, April 7.—The indications are that Capt. Creed Misleads, republican, has been elected mayor by a greatly reduced majority. Ironton, April 7.—The republicans elect Moulton mayor and the city ticket with the exception of the city solicitor. The political complexion is practically unchanged. Hamilton, April 7.—Mayor Bosch and the democratic city ticket were re-elected by an average of 400, making no material change in the local political situation. Coshocton, April 7.—E. E. C. Rinner (dem.), was elected mayor by 40 plurality. The rest of the democratic ticket was elected. Chillicothe, April 7.—Wallace D. Yaple (dem.), was elected mayor with the rest of the democratic city ticket except two republicans in the city council. Steubenville, April 7.—The republican ticket headed by Robert I. Scott for mayor was elected in Steubenville. In Mingo Junction F. S. Buchanan (rep.), was elected mayor. Springfield, April 7.—Eleven out of 27 precincts give a majority for Bowlus (dem.), over Poole (rep.), for mayor. The rest of the republican ticket is probably elected. Dedicated 22 Monuments. Shiloh Battlefield, April 7.—Indiana dedicated and presented to the government yesterday the 22 monuments erected at a cost of $25,000 in honor of the 22 regiments from that state in the battle of Shiloh. Two special trains and a fleet of passenger boats brought 600 people from Indianapolis. Gen. Lew Wallace presided at the dedicatory exercises. The monuments were presented to the state by Col. James Wright, of the Indiana commission which had charge of the erection. Gov. Durbin presented the monuments to the government. A Riot at Belgrade. Belgrade, April 7.-The gehdarmes had to be called out to suppress the rioting which took place here as the outcome of a demonstration against an objectionable police regulation, and two rioters and two gendarmes were killed and many wounded on both sides. One hundred and thirty arrests were made. Wagon Makers Strike. New York, April 7.—The wagon makers of Brooklyn to the number of 1,500 struck yesterday to compel the employers to fix eight instead of ten hours as a day's work. THE IMPRESSIONS OF A WOMAN What a Woman Says About Western Canada. Although many men have written to this paper regarding the prospects of Western Canada, and its great possibilities, it may not be uninteresting to give the experience of a woman settler, written to Mr. M. V. McInnes, the agent of the Government at Detroit, Mich. If the reader wishes to get further information regarding Western Canada it may be obtained by writing any of the agents of the Government whose name is attached to the advertisement appearing elsewhere in this paper. The following is the letter referred to: Hilldown, Alberta, Feb'y. 5, 1903. Dear Sir: I have been here now nearly five years, and thought I would write you a woman's impression of Western Canada—in Alberta. There are several ranchers in this district who, in addition to taking care of their cattle, carry on farming as well. Their herds of cattle number from 100 to 200 or 300 heads, and live out all winter without any shelter than the poplar bluffs and they come in in the spring in good order. Most of the ranchers feed their cattle part of the time, about this time of the year, but I have seen the finest fat cattle I ever saw that never got a peck of grain—only fattened on the grass. You see I have learned to talk farm since I came here—farming is the great business here. I know several in this district who never worked a day on the farm, till they came here, and have done well and are getting well off. I think this will be the garden of the Northwest some day, and that day not very far distant. There has been a great change since we came here, and there will be a greater change in the next five years. The winters are all anyone could wish for. We have very little snow, and the climate is fine and healthy. Last summer was wet, but not to an extent to damage crops, which were a large average yield, and the hay was immense—and farmers wore a broad smile accordingly. We have good schools, the Government pays 70 per cent. of the expense of education, which is a great boon in a new country. Of course, churches of different denominations follow the settlements. Summer picnics and winter concerts are all well attended, and as much, or more, enjoyed as in the East. Who would not prefer the pure air of this climate with its broad acres of fine farms, its rippling streams, its beautiful lakes, its millions of wild flowers, its groves of wild fruit of exquisite flavor, its streams and lakes teeming with fish and its prairies and bluffs with game, to the crowded and stiff state of society in the East. I would like to go home for a visit sometime, but not to go there to live, even if presented with the best farm in Michigan. Beautiful Alberta, I will never leave it. And my verdict is only a repetition of all who have settled in this country. This year, I believe, will add many thousands to our population. And if the young men, and old men also, knew how easy they could make a home free of all incumbrance in this country, thousands more would have settled here. I would sooner have 160 acres here than any farm where I came from in Michigan; but the people in the East are coming to a knowledge of this country, and as they do, they will come West in thousands. All winter, people have been arriving in Alberta, and I suppose in other parts as well, which is unusual, so we expect a great rush when the weather gets warmer. We have no coal famine here; coal can be bought in the towns for $2 to $3, according to distance from the mines, and many haul their own coal from the mines—getting it there for 50 cents to a dollar a ton. Very truly yours. (Signed) Mrs. John McLachlan. LAZINESS OVERCOME. Parls Physician Tells of the Marvels of AutoNugget. Dr. Felix Regnault, of Paris, contributes an article to the forthcoming number of La Revue on physical gymnastics and the education of the will, in which he deals with autosuggestion, and gives hints of the practice thereof. He says it is necessary for success to withdraw the mind from external things and to avoid noise and conversation, while such disturbing sensations as cold feet and headaches are fatal to achieving complete control by the will. According to Dr. Regnault, night is the best time to engage in auto-suggestion, just when one is dropping off to sleep. The first thing to do is to think hard and engage in mental repetition. Those endowed with strong wills have obtained extraordinary results by this method, such as controlling the muscles, moving the ears, and quickening or stopping the beats of the heart. The writer cites well-known marvelous feats performed by Indian fakirs, which, he claims, can be imitated by Europeans through auto-suggestion. It is possible when the will is thus completely exercised to pierce the flesh without pain and without blood flowing; although when the will is not paramount the same experimenter will suffer and bleed. Similarly misanthropic persons may become gay, the lazy may become active, and the passionate may become reasonable by education of the will. A similar and easier method is to repeat aloud mechanically the suggestion you wish to obtain. Spoken prayers are equally as efficacious, even if pronounced without fervor, for they penetrate by the ears and are imprinted on the brain. Some persons are strongly impressed by visual images. Dr. Regnault says he cured a hypochondriac by advising him to write upon the wall of his bedroom every night with phosphorent powder the words "I am gay," so that he would fall asleep with them before his eyes. He advises those fond of lying abed in the morning to cure themselves by indirect auto-suggestion. He says that if a person will place an interesting book by the bedside his eyes will hardly open before they will fall on it, and he will commence to read. The person will then be in full possession of his will, and rising will be easy. HOW A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN ESCAPED SPRING CATARRH BY USE OF PE-RU-NA. MISS. HELEN WHITMAN. MISS HELEN WHITMAN.

Miss Helen Whitman, 308% Grand avenue, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: "There is nothing like Peruna for that tired feeling, which gives you no ambition for work or play. After a prolonged illness, about a year ago I felt unable to regain my health, but four bottles of Peruna made a wonderful change and restored me to perfect health. As long as you keep your blood in good condition you are all right, and Peruna seems to fill the veins with pure, healthful blood. I thoroughly endorse it." MISS HELEN WHITMAN. Have you got nerves? Well, you ought to have nerves. But they ought to be strong nerves, good nerves. Does your hand tremble? You are living too fast. Does your heart flutter at times? You had better call a halt. Americans live too fast. They crowd too much into a single day. They have too little leisure. The hospitals and insane asylums are filling up. The quiet, pastoral scenes of yore are becoming rare. It's time that we quit this sort of business. Arthur was one of the little unfortunate army of five-year-olds that lives on Fifth avenue, where he has everything to his heart's content except mud pies and things a boy's heart really craves. Not long ago one of Arthur's uncles bought a country seat on Long Island—barns, horses, cows, chickens, and other rural convictions included. Recently Arthur was allowed to visit the "farm" and to inspect the same at his leisure. One of the first things he saw was a strange creature on twolegs, with wings and a mania for scratching gravel. "What's that thing?" he asked. "That's a chicken," was explained. "Oh, no," he said incredulously. "you can't fool me; that thing's got feathers on it."—N. Y. Times. THE FAST TRAINS TO CHICAGO. George H. Daniels, General Passenger Agent of the New York Central Road, talking yesterday of the company's fast train service, said that, in addition to the new twenty-hour train, there are now four twenty-four-hour trains to Chicago, and two Empire State expresses daily. The Twentieth Century Limited, twenty-hour train, leaves New York every day at 2:45 P. M. and arrives at Chicago the next morning at 9:45. The Lake Shore Limited leaves New York at 5:30 every afternoon, arriving in Chicago the next afternoon at 4:30. The Fast Mail, a fine twenty-four-hour train, leaves New York at 8:45 A.M. every day, reaching Chicago the next morning at 7:50, by both the Lake Shore and the Michigan Central. The noonday Chicago Limited leaves New York at 1 P. M., reaching Chicago by the Lake Shore the next morning at 11:50, a twenty-four-hour train, really twenty-three hours and fifty minutes. The Detroit and Chicago Limited leaves New York at 4 P. M., reaching Chicago the next afternoon, a fourth twenty-four-hour train.—From The New York Times. Note.—The New York Central also has 15 trains a day between New York and Buffalo and Niagara Falls; 5 trains a day between New York and St. Louis and Cincinnati; 4 trains a day between New York and Montreal and by its Boston and Albany division 4 trains a day between New York and Boston via Springfield.

The Court' Auditor of Erie county, New York, Hon. John W. Neff, in a recent letter written at Buffalo, New York, stated: "I was persuaded by a friend to try a bottle of your great nerve tonic, Peruna, and the results were so gratifying that I am more than pleased to recommend it." A Spring Tonic. Almost everybody needs a tonic in the spring. Something to brace the nerves, invigorate the brain and cleanse the blood. That Peruna will do this is beyond all question. Everyone who has tried it has had the same experience as Mrs. D. W. Timberlake, of Lynchburg, Va., who, in a recent letter, made use of the following words: "I always take a dose of Peruna after business hours, as it is a great thing for the nerves. There is no better spring tonic, and I have used about all of them." Catarrh in Spring. The spring is the best time to treat catarrh. Nature renews herself every spring. The system is rejuvenated by spring weather. This renders medicines more effective. A short course of Peruna, assisted by the balmy air of spring, will cure old, stubborn cases of catarrh that have resisted treatment for years. Everybody should have a copy of Dr. Hartman's latest book on catarrh. Address The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio. Mrs. Lulu Larmer, Stoughton, Wis., says: "For two years I suffered with nerv- ous trouble and suffered with nervous trouble and stomach disorders until it seemed that there was nothing to me but a bundle of nerves. I was very irritable, could not sleep, rest or compose myself, and was certainly unfit to take care of a household. I took nerve tonics and stomach disorders until it seemed that there was nothing to me but a bundle of nerves. I was very irritable, could not sleep, rest or compose myself, and was certainly unfit to take care of a household. I took nerve tonics and pills without benefit. When I began taking Peruna I grew steadily better, my nerves grew stronger, my rest was no longer fitful, and to-day I consider myself in perfect health and strength. My recovery was slow but sure, but I persevered and was rewarded by perfect health."—Mrs. Lulu Larmer. If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
