FRIDAY, JUNE 9 The last report of the State Hoard of Public Works shows the usual annual loss of about $100,000 in the oporation of canals. Mark Hax.va sueeringly declares that Mayor Jones' supporters are eomnosed mainly of "riffraff, idle fellows, liquor dealers and bums." Talk about Ajax defying the light ning! If the "riffraff" are as much o in evidence in the Ohio election next fall as they were at Toledo this spring when Mayor Jones got about 20,000 more votes than his Bepubli can rival, Hanna will cut but little figure in the political future. Local Republican politicians are not at all backward about making the prediction that the Hon. J. Pane Alexander will not succeed himself as Senator. Col. Geo. W. Seiber is next to wear the Senatorial toga for this district, they claim. As both aspirants are determined in their opposition to Akron's top heavy form of government, and will do their best to give the people a more direct con trol of their local affairs, it seems to be a case of how. Akron might be happy with either "were t'other dear charmer away." TOO MUCH B0SSISM. Hon. Eobt. Price of Zanesville, a life-long Republican, cannot stand the methods employed by Hauna and Gox to control the recent con vention. He concludes a two-column denunciation of party bossism with the following -trenchant paragraph: "Hanna now sees that a reckoning will be required and is trying by fair means or foul to ward off the grow ing dissatisfaction of the people. Hence the scenes witnessed in the convention last week. In former times delegates were known as dele gates from the different counties. Here they were known as represent ing a boss and bore his naming. In former years a United States Sena tor was a guest of honor. Here oar Senators were found promising or threatening the delegates as they though best to secure their votes. .George B. Cox had as absolute con trol of one-ninth of the delegates, those from Hamilton county, as any slave driver in the South ever had over his slaves." WERNER EMPLOYES privately arranged state ticket can be defeated. It is the duty of every lover of libertv to put forth his best , energy from now on to election day." j Have Made Extensive Arrangements If anything was lacking to goaa the anti-Hanna Republicans of Ohio to openly revolt against their boss-made ticket, it seems to have been fur nished by Hanim's interview.

TERRIBLE Symptoms of Spinal Meningitis -Few Cases Now. Local physicins state that the cases of meningitis, so prevalent a few weeks ago, are gradually decreasing. At present their is only a very few cases in Akron. Meningitis belongs to those dis eases that sre especially dreaded by Ihemedical profession. It is due to a microbe known as the micrococ cus lanceolatus, and in the first stage the patient is so irritated that the most trifling noise and a single rayi of light will throw him into a parox ysm of pain. In the second stage the reverse is the case, the patient becoming deaf and almost blind, and in the third stage paralysis of the entire body ensues. A peculiarcon dition called tache cerebrale also supervenes when it is possible to trace lines, words or letters on the patient's chest with the finger, which appear through the skin in livid red. Even if the sufferer survive one of his senses is inevitably affected forever. BIDDING FOR TROUBLE. In an interview published yester day, Senator Hanna, in his charac teristically brutal style, grossly insulted all the independent Repub licans who had the hardihood to try to save their party from boss domi nation at the Republican convention last week. Among those assailed by Hanna was Mayor Jones of Toledo. The Mayor replies to Hanna as fol lows: "I never deal in personalities. Hannaism, Plattism, Crokerism and bossism are all th e same. If we could believe that bossism would perish when the individuals who represent it are dead, our hope might be quick ened, but Mr. Hanna, like all others of his class, is simply a product of a vicious social systemthat only pro vides a plan for a few to live. "If Mr. Hanna is correctly reported, his ignorance andamazingeffrontery are simply appalling. Thatheshould come to the point of parading his venality in the public press, saying, 'I sent some of my labor lieutenants down to Toledo,' etc., is the slight indication of the kind of a man we may look for in our billionaire baron, boon to be known in this country un less there is a radical change in the social order. "The whole interview is reeking with the puffed up pride of a man who has been transformed by the wicked system of legalized robbery, known as business, from a being created in the image of God, from a man of possible kindly nature ifito an intoleranttyrantand an insuffer able boss. His reference to me and my ambition respecting the governor ship is a tissue of lies which I charitably charge to his leading characteristic, his colossal ignorance. "If we have reached a period in the "history of the great state of Ohio when a boss like this can subvert the will of the people as he did atthe Columbus cbnvention, then indeed may the people despair, for their cause is desperate. I do not believe such is the case; I believe the forces of righteousness, the forces of fair play in politics can be united in Ohio and that this monstrous infamy of a Edison's Projectoscope free, Lake side park Sunday evening; 7:30 to 9 :r.0.

The law provides that a man can work six days but must observe one. He being, a Hebrew it was argued that Saturday was the Jewish Sabbath and that he com mitted no offense by laboring on Sunday. Mayor Young found him guilty but sentence was reserved as a motion for a new trial was filed. Geo. Edwards, who resides in North Akron, drunk, $2 and costs. Geo. Huber, aged 18, was arrested for bathing without a suit. He failed to obey a summons to appear in Police court.

Sullivan aroso early this morning and conversed pleasantly with many in the Empire lobby. He loft at 0:30 for Canton. "Old John" said this morning that when he shiued shoes and carried hod in Boston ho could whip every mail he saw. Finally he wagered $50 he could put out all comers. This he did and in a couple of punches, too, without, any training. Then he drifted to busy New York. Here he said the dubs would appear before him. After one or two punches it was all over, except wiping up the gore. John walked up to "jVTax" Mc Creedy cigar stand, threw down $2 dollars and asked for La Perfer- encia's. "Have a cigar, .boys?" "They're the best cigar sold J' They were two. for a quarter cigars and John had almost finished his, before the rest hardly had lit their's. He immediately proceeded on -No. 2. "But say," he said, "there is some thing that I have never done and that is smoke cigarettes." In speaking of the pugs, John said: "Whiskey will whip them all.
