Tittr in the dav when our Repub lican friends are carving one another afc the primaries. The attention of Youngstowu is respectfully directed to Akron's bank clearings for the current week. Akron's clearings are nearly double Youngstown's. ,If Prof. C. F. Seese of Hudson is Hofnatpd todav for the nomination for Representative it will be hard to convince him that the "picture " which has been printed in the col umns of the Beacon, purporting to be his likeness, didn't have something to do with it. The Akron Democratic club Is the first organization in the State to receive its charter under the newly organized Association of the Ohio Democratic clubs. Tho Akron club will be known as Number 1. It will continue to rank first, in point of membership, enthusiasm and effec tive work for the cause of Democ racy, as well as in name. Akron people will hardly know their own city during the Free Fair and Carnival, so complete will be the transition ..to the splendor of Oriental decorations and surround ings soon to be wrought by hundreds of busy workmen. The plans now on exhibition in the windows of M. O'Neil & Co. and J. Koch & Co. con vey but a scant conception of the transformation in Howard and Main streets for the Fair. It is the same old story in the case of Representative Rutan of Carroll county. Mr. Rutan has been a life long Republican, but having had the independence to denounce Hanna and bossism, he was defeated for re-nomination by the Hanna men at the Carroll county primaries, "Wed nesday. EK-Representative Conn of Akron, another anti-Hanna Republi can, knows how to sympathize with ex-Representative Rutan. Next to Admiral Dewey, Roose velt is the great popular hero of the war. Beacon. What a confession! And how shocking I Folks who read the Bea con last fall were assured in every column and upon every page that the only real and authorized hero of Santiago was running for Congress in the Nineteenth District. But now thev are told without even an excuse or an apology that "next to Ad miral Dewey, Roosevelt is the great nonnlar hero of the war." Alas for the inconstancy of hero-worship And hv Col. Dick's own organ, too No wonder the real hero of San tiago is impelled to say, "I perish by this people which I made." Akroj is coming right to the front as a convention city. Among the conventions to be held herenextyear will be the Sons of St. George and the German "Warriors of America. And but for the bigoted interference of Judge "Anderson, who, acting, through his proxies on the Board of City Commissioners, prevented Akron from having representation in the League of Ohio Municipalities, Akron would have had the honor of " entertaining the state convention of the League next year. Two years hence, thanks to the enterprise of Akron's Maccabees, the Knights and Ladies of the Maccabees will have their big convention at Akron. Akron should be as well prepared to entertain conventions as any city of her class in the land. Conventions benefit and advertise the city, so let them come, the more the better. The nation is now in one of the greatest crises of its history. If ever there was a time when the people should think and act for themselves, it is now. TheAdminis- tration is committed to policies, which, if persisted in, must ulti mately change the entire structure of the government, desttoying the very foundations of popular liberty upon which our Republic rests. It would seem thnt in such a time the people should be given every oppor tunity to consider and decide these great issues for themselves, in an intelligent aud dispassionate nanner. and according to their own best judgment. But this is not going to be tho policy of Mr. Hanna's party in the campaign of 1899, especially in Ohio. Instead of inviting the peoph to a careful consideration of issues Hanna's managerb will try to dis- SATURDAY, AUGUST 19 p"rgjgOTrVcTl& tract their attention from the issues by a liberal use of red fire and brass bands, and by importing an army of federal office holders into Ohio to shout the praises of their patron, the Administration. Already this pro gram is becoming very much in evi dence. The Democratic party, rein forced by the thousands of Republi cans who are at variance with the imperial and trust favoring policies of the Aministration, will have to meet this program as it was met in 1896 by asking the people to do their own thinking and to vote their convic tions accordingly as they believe to be to the best interests of themselves and their country.

SO Comment by Rev. S. H. Doyle. Tone. The leaven and the meal. Math, xiii, S3; Dan. ii, 31-S3, 45. (A missionary meeting.) The ultimate diffusion of Christiani ty throughout the world and its tri umph over the kingdoms of the world are assured. Christ's parable of tho leaven and the meal bears testimony to the first statement, and Daniel's inter pretation of the dream of Nebuchadnez zar to the second. But these references also point out some of the characteris tics of tho worldwide spread and tri umph of Christ's kingdom 1. Christ's kingdom is to spread gradually throughout the world. Small in the beginning, yet gradually the leaven diffuses itself throughout all the meal. One part is leavened, and it leavens another until the whole is leav ened. How characteristic of the growth of Christ's kingdom. First two disciples called; then 13; at the ascension, 500: at Pentecost, 3,000; today millions un der every climo in tho world. First Asia Minor, which touches continental Europe, which in turn leavens England, which leavens America, and today Eng land and America are touching and leavening the world Gradually, hut surely, the kingdom spreads, and. if discouraged that it is rot fast enough, let us recall the parable of the leaven. 3 The spread of Christ's kingdom is to be universal. The sprad of the leav en was gradual, but at last it leavened the whole lump, and the stone not only smote the image, but became a great mountain aud filled the whole earth Christ's kingdom i3 to be a worldwide kingdom Men have tried to found uni versal kingdoms, but have failed Worldwide empire has been the dream of more than one earthly potentate, bnt baa always failed of realization But Christ will not fail. His kingdom shall extend from eea to sea and from the rivers to the ends of the earth 3 Christ's kingdom will triumph over all other kingdoms In Nebuchad nezzar's dream the kingdoms of the world were represented by an image , composed of various metals. Christ's I by a stone cut out without bands, and i the stone smote the image, and break j in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay. I the silver and the gold. Thus symboliz-! ing the final triumph of Christ's kingt j dom over the kingdoms of the world The kingdoms of tho world that oppose tue Kingdoms or Christ ehall be over thrown. Those that accept Him shall be governed by Him. and thus all king doms shall be conquered by Him. What a blessed privilege we shall esteem it to have some part in this uni versal spread of the kingdom of Christ Are we doing onr part of the work? If we have been leavened, are we leaven ing others at home, abroad, that the whole world may be leavened? If not, may we not question onr own leaven ing ! Can we be saved and not inter ested in the salvation of others J Bible Readings. Ps. ii, 1-12; Isa. ii, 1-3: ix. 6. 7; lii, 7; lxii. 1-12: Dan. ii, 44. iv. 3. Neb. i, 15; Mio. iv, 1-3; Math vi. 10: xxviii, 18, 20; Luke xxiv. 48; Acts i. 8; Rom. x, 14, 15: Rev vii. C. 10 A Minister's Dasinefis. A minister of the gospel should be looked upon as as much of an authority and as skilled an adviser in things spir itual as a doctor is in matters of health and a lawyer in matters of property. And it is the minister's business to be as well informed and able to advise thoe in his care as the family physician or the family lawyer. To be such he must be not only familiar with his doc trine, but eaturated with the Epirit of the Bible, imbned with the mind of Christ, have the heart and genius of a pastor and such knowledge of human n.itnro and fact in dealing with all classes of men as will enable him at once to know and appreciate the needs of his people and satisfy them by dis pensing to them the rich treasures of truth and grace over which Christ has made bini a steward. Reformed Church Messenger A Time For Common Sense. Now is the time for the sober, thoughtful, intelligent body of the American people to assert itself. We must not be stampeded in either direc tion or by any leaders, no matter how distinguished No false glitter of pa triotism mnst be allowed to dazzle ns into losing sight of what trne patriot ism means. Now is the hour for com mon sense shrewd, hard, dogged com mon sense, which cannot be fooled or cajoled or browbeaten to assert itself. Whatever our decision, let it be made calmly, intelligently and as in the Di vine sight Thus only can we reason ably expect the Almighty to bless the United States henceforth, as heretofore Congregationalist Desperately Wicked."

Melville Cronewelt, aged 24 years, who has been confined in tho city prison on a charge of forgery, is again a free man.

Before pay day he ask ed Dr. Cole for $8 of nis money with which to nay his board. Dr. Cole drew a check for $8 in favor of Mrs. Hattie Hancock. Conewelt signed Mrs. Hancock's name on the back of the check, thus endorsing the note and committing, the alleged forgery. Tho defendant's attorney, A. J. Rowley, filed a motion to quash the affidavit and Mayor Youngsustained the motion. No more affidavits will be filed against him.

The railure. New Tore, Aug. 19. R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade issued to day said in part: The Cramps have discharged many hundred hands, and ask Russia to ex tend time for completion of two war ships because they cannot get the steel. Completion of 21 out of 37 vessels build ing iu the Delaware is also affected. It is a curious experience for this country, butshowb the gigantic expansion of home demand. No one can question the fact that payments through the princi pal clearinghouses have been in August M.9 ner cent larger than in 1892 for the mouth thus far, and outside New York 23 per cent. No better test of the volume of busi ness is kuown, but there is a growing handicap in the advance of prices. How loug and how far this advance can go without reaction is the problem which level-headed business men are studying. Evidences of checked con sumption are rare, but it would be childish to hopo that at some point higher prices would not hinder buying. In iron tho quesition of steel billets, which the great consuming companies liave bought far in advance, so that all new orders have a narrow market. For six months billets have sold at $i to $0 higner than the rails made from them. Other demands, not covered by con tracts, are mainly for various shapes and sizes, only prescribed iu contracts. While prices have risen 25 cents for southern pigiron, 00 cents for Chicago local coke and 75 ceuts for Grey forge at Pittsburg, rails have advanced $1 per ton, with, woru covered tor all tue year, and 400,000 tous or more taken .beyond what can be delivered until next year. Other finished products do not change, although tho demaud at all points ex ceeds present capacity. For wool, Coatss' circular for Aug. 1 still holds good, although inside quota tions are more otten made. Sales tor three weeks have been 2S 3y,yU0 pounds, against 13,990,500 last year, 38,oo0,30j in 1S97 aud 23,365,400 in the same weeks of 1892. Goods have advanced further, especially iu cassi nieres, cheiot aud cotton warp cajsh ineres, and the tendeucy is upward in ntarly all grades. Wheat has advanced about 1 cent dur ing tile week. Exports ot wheat in three weeks have heeu from both coasts, flour included, 9,973,764 bushels, against 10,114,246 bushels last year, and the western re ceipts have been 11,864,696 bnshels, against ll.Ol'l, 189 bushels last year, but it is also significant that corn has risen three-eighths ot a cout, with receipts of 3,020,69.: bushels for tho week, against 3,514, 162 bushels last year, while the ex ports have been 4,034,302 bushels, airainst '2,370,302 bushels last year.

Secretary Root was busily engaged in 'selecting omcerto fill the new regiments, going over tho lists of names that have been submitted with rccommendatiou for ap pointment and considering their effi ciency records daring the Spanish war. After the selections are made by the secretary they will be sent to the presi dent lor ins approval. The quartermaster's department has been considering tho advisability of chartering more trausports on the Pa cific coast. Already the ships chartered make it possible to send nearly all the organizations now formed by Sept. 2o, instead of two weeks later, which was the schedule hrst shown to fcccretary Root. The transports Logau and Thomas are now "being fitted up on the Atlantic coast aud it is expected they will be reaay to sail by the iniddlo of October aud will Uko three regiments via the Suez canal. At tho latest calculation it is now be hoved to be possible to land all the new regiments in the Philippines by Dec. 1, or very soon at tor that date. Wnile it may not be necessary to use all the troops- in the Philippines, it is understood to be the plan of Secretary Root to have a sufficient force to not only defeat the insurgents at every point, but to garrison and hold the places that may be taken and thus in sure a safe line of communication.
