By order of THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY EXECU TIVE COMMITTEE. R. L. ANDREW, Chairman. STEPHEN C. MILLER, Secretary. THE. DEMOCRATIC COUNTY CEN TRAL COMMITTEE. B. F. DAVIS, L. H. AMER, Chalrmnn. Secretary. Hon. F. P. Malin of Lake county, will be a candidate for the Demo cratic nomination for Member of the Board of Public "Works. This gen tleman is well qualified for the place and may count upon the support of his Northeastern Ohio neighbors for the nomination. Mr. A. C. Bachtel, president of the Ohio Association of Democratic clubs, has received a request from Geauga county to send a charter, constitution and by-laws for the organization of a Democratic club in that county. The Democratic vote in Geauga is gaining every year. The death of Attorney H., K. Sauder, senior member of the firm of Sauder & Rogers, came as a shock to his many friends, who had not been prepared for the unfortunate news.' Mr. Sauder was one of the brightest and best-informed members of the Summit county bar. In politics he was fearless and independent, hating all manner of hypocrisy, and never neglecting an opportunity to de nounce or combat it. As a champion of the rights of the masses of the people, rights which, in later years, he believed to be best subserved by the Democratic party, he had fow peers in Summit county. He was popular as a stump speaker in every township in Summit county, and the thousands who have so often been entertained and instructed by him will miss him very much. 1 ilf!KF "TIIHNfinAT " LULKt, lunnouAl. u. TTnTiTiH'K nwEnnnprs nrn hiiRv Mr. iiannas newspapers are DUSy calling the Hon. John F. Locke, a ' Madison county's independent Re- publican, a ''turncoat' because he accepted a nomination for Represen tative from the Democratic party. The Toledo Blade, in particular, accuses hiin of "placing the hunger of office before principle." At the same time the Blade shouts lustily that the Democratic ticket upon which Mr Locke is a candidate has no earthly chances of being elected. Charging a man, in one breath, with turning his coat to get an office, and in the next, making the claim that his chances of getting the office are hopeless and forlorn, implies a condition of affairs that offends com mon sense. The relative chances of Mr. Locko'6 being elected or defeated for the office to which the Democrats, loving fair play, have nominated him, are of small consequence to the people. But the fact that he has had the courage to join the growing ranks of independent Republicans who have not hesitated to denounce Hanna ism as being subversive of the prin ciples advocated by Jefferson and Lincoln, will have much influence with the people. This denunciation of Mr. Locke by bis own party's press, in the very beginning of his career as a citizen independent in thought, speech and action, will remind Summit county's Democrats of what Judge Grant said to them at the time of the War ren Congressional convention last fall, after he had endured for three years from former party associates the same sort of treatment that is now being accorded Mr. Locke. Judge Grant said : - "I have long ago reached a point where hard names do not scare me, or soft ones charm me. I am quite willing to be called an anarchist, when I reflect that in my day I have seen stump and press and pulpit in free America the apologists or defendors of chattel slavery as an institution ordained of God. For my part I will denounce anarchy, by whomsoever, or in whatsoever place, practised; whether by the prole tariat behind the barricade in the street, the dematrocue in Congress or on the hustings, the executive placed In power by the Dougnt or coerced votes 01 a aeceiveu aim uverremiueu constitutencv, the mouthmgs or. a corrunt and venal press, the prayers of the pharisee, the platitudes of a pulpit wnicn is a stranger to chris tian charity, or the judge with his self-imposed robe of righteousness about him. Each in his place is a foe to law and an enemy to order and the welfare of society; and the time is coming, surely coming, when they will 60 be held and considered. It is coming with the remorseless tread of fate." Having the above powerful arraign ment and defiance of. Hannaism before him, Mr. Locke's courage will need no further stimulus when his Madison county enemies try to scare him with hard names. POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS. County Clerk.

Imperial Potentate of the Ancient Arabic Order Footprints. John H. Atwood of Leavenworth, Kan., who was elected imperial potentate of the Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine at the recent annu al session of the imperial council at Buffalo, has long been an en thusiastic and hard working member of the imperial council and has earned tho high honor conferred upon him. Mr. Atwood is a partner in a law firm of which Senator Lucien JOHN H. atwood. Baker is also a member. He is a close friend of William J. Bryan and is considered by his friends as the equal of Mr. Bryan as an orator. Oriental temple of Troy won the prize drill at the imperial'council.

A charter has beeu granted for a new temple nt Biughamton, X. Y. There are about 150 Shriners in Biughamton. MASONIC. Indent Qunllllentlotix I'nr Admis sionChips From the Temple. The qualification ir candidates are litis defined in Hie ancient charges: "The ftei-sons admitted meiiiliers of a lodge must le good and tine turn, fro born I. nil of mature and ilisireel age: no wom an, no immoral or scniMlnloiis men. but of pood report." "No ina-ter should take an apprentice unless he be of perfect youth, having no maim or defect in liis body 'that may render hint incapable of learn ing the art, of serving Ins master s lord and of being made a brother and unless he be descended of honest parents." Ahiman Ilczon of 1825. There are now 115 persons in the Ohio Masonic home 5J5 men, XI women and 39 children. The Knights Templars of Iowa own a park of 40 acres in Spirit Lake. There is u hall for meeting and n building con taining 90 sleeping rooms on the gionnds. The grand officers of Missouri laid the cornerstone of a new temple to be built at St. Louis. Kit Carsou's rifle, which was carried by him for more than 40 years and which never failed him, is now a precious relic in the possession of the Moutezunia lodge of Masons of Santa Ke, of which he was a member. The petition of a rejected candidate cannot lie acted upon by any com mandery at any time within three years after such rejection, nor unless the peti tioner has resided within the jurisdiction or the commandery for three years, with out the consent by unanimous ballot of the one by which he was rejected. This limits the jurisdiction of a commandery over a rejected candidate to three years and prohibits a waiver of jurisdiction over this candidate except by unanimous ballot within the period ot three years. Masonry is strongly fixed amoDg the colored men of Liberia. The grand master of Colorado decided that "the voucher of a brother who may have met (a visitor) in the consistory, commandery, council or chapter and has not other knowledge of his standing in the lodge, is not lawful information." When a brother stays away from his lodge habitully, there is a reason for it. It is the duty of the master to find out the reason. UNITED WORKMEN. Important Decision na to Deneflcla rlcK Bench Skavlntrs. For several years past there has exist ed a provision for a review of the de cisions of the grand master workmen by the supreme lodge, the object being to maintain uniformity in the rulings of the different jurisdictions. A number of such decisions were reported on by the committee on. laws at the recent session. Among them was one by the grand mas ter workman of the jurisdiction of Wash ington to the effect that a divorced wife, beinsr the beneficiary of her husband, was cntittal to receive the beneficiary money. The decision was approved. Hereafter no person shall be admitted to membership in any beneficial depart ment of the Degree of Honor who is over 45 years of age. ' The supreme lodge voted to incorporate the order in Pennsylvania. The supreme lodge declined to attempt a specific definition of what is meant by the word "dependent" as applied to qualifications of beneficiaries, holding that dependency is matter of fact which must be determined in accordance with the facts in each case separately. A member cannot be suspended or ex pelled for refusing to pay dues for a sick benefit fund, provided he does not par ticipate in such fund. Unly beneficial members are entitled to vote on beneficial applications. A junior workman degree member applying for advancement to the workman degree must be elected by a secret ball ballot, and three black balls will prevent his .advancement. KNIGHTS OF HONOR. Chniiitca In the Scale of Rates Notes of the Order. A new scale of rates was unanimously ndopted by the supreme lodge, ranging from $1.20 for a full rate member at 21 years of age to S8 for a member 60 years old and over. The expense assessment was fixed at $1.00, one-third of the entire amount paid by each state to be used in that state for extending the order. The personal affidavit of good health by a sus pended member before reinstatement was abolished. Many plans for carrying aged members were disapproved because such special legislation for the benefit of the few is forbidden by the laws of many states and the adoption of such a plan would bar the order from several impor tant states. The average age of members who died last year was 55.95. By the election of E. 0. Wood as su preme trustee Supreme Alternate Paul Gantert becomes supreme representative from New York. The old rates in force last year were not sufficient to cover deficits, and $580, 000 is still due. The advisory board has agreed to assist several states in advancing the order. There will be one meeting of the advis ory board between annual meetings of the lodge in the future instead of two. Hereafter if a member dies before the first of the month in which any portion of an extra or additional assessment is pay able his beneficiaries are not liable for payment of same. MODERN WOODMEN. New Jnrlsdictlon Added by the Head Camp From the Logf Pile. The head camp amended section 4 of the bylaws to add to the jurisdiction Cali fornia (except the city of San Francisco), Colorado, Oklahoma, Indian Territory, Maryland (except the city of Baltimore), Delawnre, New Jersey (except Jersey City), Now York (except the city of Buf falo and the city of Greater New York), Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachu setts (except the city of Boston), Ver mont, New Hampshire and Maine. If you have a hard drinking member in your camp, see to it promptly that he either stops drinking or leaves the so ciety. The Modern Woodmen of America now has in force over 750,000,000 of insur ance and has paid to the beneficiaries of deceased members over $13,000,000. Although the Uoyal Neighbors have a distinct government, they 'are recognized as the ladies' auxiliary to tho Modern Woodmen of America. A sharp criticism and debate often stir up a camp and may attract some "stay at home" who wants "to see the fun."' The head consul and executive board will prepare a new emblem for the order and a uniform, both of which will be of ficial, but nut obligatory on the camps. UNITED WORKMEN. Good Work of the Kruternity Work shop CleanlnscH. The frateninl features of this order have been displayed from one section of this broad continent to the other, and the maimer in which this feature has been conducted has tended materially to its advancement and success. By its laws it provides that the subordinate lodges shall care for the sick by furnishing watchers and in many cases the comforts nnd nec essaries of life. It has buried its dead, it has assisted the widow and orphan in the care of its funds and done innumerable acts in the line of fraternity. Kansas is rolling up new members at a great rate. Her gain for y was 9G3. The widows and orphans of deceased Kentucky members received $10,000 last month. The Degree of Honor, the women's aux iliary of the A. O. U. W., has a member ship of 145,000. At a recent parade of the order In Bos ton over 5,000 members were in line. The parade was reviewed by the grand and supreme officers. KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. Help Alone the Endowment Itnnk. Helmet Glints. The interest and advancement of the endowment rank should always bo of paramount importance with every Pyth ian, and it should be the 'first duty of the chancellor commander of every lodge to see to" it that tho rank and what it is do ing arc brought prominently to tbe notice ot the brethren at every meeting.- He should not simply read from the "order of business" the query, "Does any broth- 5c and your money back if you want it: Fels-Naptki : no other such soap. Fels & Ci. maker, Philadelphia. er desire insurance in the endowment rank?"' and let it go at that, but he should take a little time to the presenting of the advantages to be derived by the members joining it. Knight's Sword. Arkansas has uo state deputy. "Don't want any." Has no grand tribunal. "Don't want any." The reports of lodges throughout the grand domain of Missouri show a satis factory increase in membership and a healthy condition of the order. The Ohio Pythian home has provided for the erection of two additional cot tages at a cot not to exceed $25,000. When they are completed, room will have been provided for 200 more or phans. The Dramatic Order, Knights of Kho rassan, is more particularly to cultivate the social side of life and present an op portunity for those who enjoy a dramatic ritual to spend an evening or two in each month in association with kindred spirits, when they may participate in ceremonies enlivening, entertaining and provocative of amusement as well. Roynl Arcanum. The Uoyal Arcanum flourishes best where it is best known. It invites inves tigation and scrutiny, feeling confident hat the pre-eminent merits of the order will commend it to a thoughtful and in telligent public. Preparations are being made for the fair for the benefit of the Royal Arca num hospital bed fund of the boronghs of Manhattan. Bronx nnd Richmond, which is to be held at Masonic temple, Twenty-third street and Sixth avenue, from Xov. C to IS next. The fact that an agent carries on the business of a brother who is totally disa bled does not relieve the council of the liability to the brother for sick benefits. The Royal Arcanum has but two ob jects the insurnnce and the social fea ture. The initiation ceremony is brief and simple. The meetings are almost entirely devoid of ritual and pompous forms. The provision for fee of $50 for char ter and supplies for a new council has been repealed. Clay lodge of Louisville is the largest in the city. Maine has uo state deputy nor grand tribunal. Virginia has neither state deputy nor grand tribunal. MOEE ARRESTi l.i riiANOE. Conspirney t Overthrow the (iurern- uloQt Seemi Widespread fiiierln llarru-ailed In Hi House. Pauis, Aug. 14. Demonstrations oc curred outside the offices of the Anti Semite League where Jules Gtierin, president of the league, and Max Regis, tho former Jew baiting mayor of Algiers, against whom orders of arrest weru issued Saturday on a, charge of conspiring to bring about a change of government, were still besieged by the police. Fifty anti-Semites took up a position in a. restaurant opposite and JI. Guerin harangued them from a window. Finally the police closed tho thorough fare to prevent tho demonstration be coming serious. In the course of the evening' Mr. Gode frey, president of tho committee of the Jeuuesso royalists, was arrested and a dispatch from Saint Lo, capital of the department of ilauche, announced the arrest of M. lo Meuuet, secretary of League of Patriots. It appears that the roport of tho ar rest ot M. Marcel-Habert, member of the ch linber of deputies for Rambouil let and a high official of the League of Patriots, was incorrect, He is still at large. Out of 37 'warrants issued some 25 have heen executed. M. Paul Deroulede, founder of the Lea guo of Patriots and a m'ember of the chamber of deputies for the Augouleme division of Charente, was arrested Sat urday at his estate at Croissy, near Paris. He was incarcerated in the Con ciergerie prison. The arrest of M. Mariel-Habert was expected. When an attempt was made to arrest M. Guerin he refused to surrender and barricaded himself in his house. M. Guerin announced he will blow up his house before he surrenders. The police closed the offices of the Pa triotic League, which were guarded by gendarmes. Several members of the anti-Semite and Patriotic Leagues were also ar rested. On the application of M. Fahre, fresh searches of various houses were made, including the headquarters of the anti Semites, where only unimportant papers were seized. A semi-official note, issued Saturday, read as follows: "A certain number of arrests were made this morning, as the result of a magisterial inquiry and by virtue of article 8tl of the penal codo, regarding a conspiracy organized for the purpose of accomplishing a change in the form of government. The persons implicateubelong to tho group of Roy alist Youth and the Patriotic and Anti Semitic Leagues. At the trial of the Neuilly barrack affair facts relating to that incident alone were used as the basis of the prosecution; but searches were then made and then documents were seized which led to the discovery of an organization, dating hack to July, 181)8, ana ot a plot to seize tne govern ment by force. The documents leave no room for doubt, either in regard to the existence of the plot or as to the chief actors therein. After very close watch, organized proof was obtained that the same groups were preparing for a fresh attempt at an early date, the proof being suck as to enable tho dis turbances to bo avortod by immediate measures. The investigation of tho af fair is intrusted to M. Fabre, examining magistrate." A police commissary called at tho res idence of M. Thicbault, on the Quay Voltaire, and a number of policemen surrounded tho house. But JVI. Thic bault escaped by a balcony to an adjoin ing house. The police soized the Drapeau (news, paper) office. The house of Andro de Buffet, repre sentative ot the Duke of Orleans and vice president of the Young Royalist League, was searched and a number of papers wero seized. Buffet was ar rested at Feiguier, on the frontier, as he was about to cross into Belgium. M. Mailliard of Tho Petit Parisian staff was arrosted on the chargo of urg ing soldiers to plebiscite on. tho form of government. It was stated that the goverumout possessed precise and detailed instruc tions from the Due d'Orleans to his agents. Those already arrested include Comte do Sabrau Ponteves, Comte Chevilly, M. de Monicourt, secretary of the Jeun dsse royalists, and M. de Frechencourt, vice president of tho Gcillet Blanc, or White Carnation society.

Know n Kebel !ud -3. Manila, Aug. 14. (8::W p. m.) The insurgents have taken the aggressive in the neighborhood of the railroad. They misuwessfully attacked San Luis, on the Rio Grande, near Caiunipit, which is garrisoned by two companies of the Twenty-second infantry. The Ameri cans had one man, a sergeant, killed, and two privates wounded. A sunilar affair took place at Grin gua, fonr miles west of Mololos, where another small garrison is stationed as a safeguard against a possible attack upon the railway. A special train took rein forcements to Mulolos and Guiguiuta, just north of Bulecan. Manila, Aug. 14. A recounoisance by troops of General Samuel B. M. Young's brigade, with the object of discovering the whereabouts, of the enemy near Sau Mateo, northeast of the San Juan reservoir, about teu miles from Manila, resulted in tho occupation of San Mateo. The American loss was three killed and l'i wounded, including a lieuteuaut of the Twenty-first infantry- The -Americans approached San Mateo in three columns. Major Crouin, with 15 men of the Twenty-fifth infan try, advanced from Xoveliches, five miles west of Sau Mateo. Captain Rivers, with 100 men of the Fourth cavalry, and Captain Parker, formerly lieutenant colonel of tho Twelfth 2ew York voluuteer resimeut, with 280 men of the Twenty-first and Twenty-fourth infantry and the Fourth cavalry, ap proached in two columns from the south. Major Cronin experienced many diffi cultics arising from tho condition of the country and failed to effect a junc tion with Captain Rivers west ot nan Mateo, as had been planned. Capta'.u Rivers, advancing, took an outpost of the enemy two miles south west of Sau Mateo. Ho then encoun tered stroug'resistanco among the hills, the enemy firing from excellent posi tions. Having tailed to connect with Major Crouin, and seeing that the town was already occupied by the Americans, Captain Rivers withdrew, covering his withdrawal by a heavy volley. He lost a sergeant killed. Captain Parker, on advancing, found tho enemy strongly entrenched on the far side of some rice fields, about a mile wide and covered with deep mud. Pushing forward rapidly he- routed the Filipinos after about 40 minutes fight ing and then continued the march upon San Mateo, which lie entered without serious resistance. Major Crouin entered the town later. Our men were exhausted by the. heavy marching. Twenty-three of the enemy were known to have beeu killed. This is the first action m which Colonel Burt's colored troops partici pated. They behaved well, their leaders having difficulty in holding them back. General Young accompanied Captain Parker's column and was under lire throughout the engagement It is esti mated that the enemy numbered be tween SOO and 400 men. While the Seventeenth infantry, dur ing last Tuesday's battle, was approach ing Calnlut along the road, the troops saw a group of 50 Filipinos outside the town under a flag of truce. Some, who were in white clothing, hold up their hands to signify that they were un armed. Captain Hart, with a detaehmcut, ad vanced cautiously to a point within 200 yards of them when the Filipinos picked up their guns and fired a" volley. The Americans dropped into the bushes unhurt on the first movement and returned the fire. At this the Fili pinos ran off. Word has been received from Lieu tenant J. C. Gilluioro of the United States gunboat Yorktown, who, with 14 members of the crew of the gunboat, was . captured by the insurgents last April near Baler on the east coast of Luzon. The message, which comes through Spanish prisoners, is to the ef fect that the officer and his men are at Vigau, in the province of South Ilocos, on the west coast of Luzon. All but two are well. Lieutenant Gillmore is al lowed a house and a servant and is fairly treated. Wasiunotox, Aug. 14. General Otis reported the following additional casu alties: Maxila, Aug. 12.
