The agony in Ohio is over. On
joint ballot in the legislature at Co-
lurobus, Tuesday, Hon. Marcus
Alonzo. Hanna was elected United
States senator on the first ballot. We
trust Senator Hanna will prove a true
Triend of the industrial classes. How¬
ever, we have no hope that be will, as
wealthy corporations and individuals
have but little, if any, sympathy for
struggling, poor humanity. Sena¬
tor Hanna will prove himself to be, in
in time, another thorn in the side of
honest labor.
Marcus Alonzo Hanna, of Cleve¬
land, was born in New Lisbon (now
Lisbon), Columbiana county, Ohio,
September 24, 1837 ; removed with
his family to Cleveland in 1852; was
educated in the common schools of
that city and the Western Reserve
college, Hudson, 0.; wholesale was engaged as
an employe in the grocery
house of Hanna, Garretson & Co., his
father being the senior member of the
firm; his father died in 1862, and
young Hanna then represented his
father’s interest in the firm until 1867,
when the business was closed up;
then became a member of the firm of
Rhodes A Co,, engaged in the iron
and coal business j at the expiration
of ten yea,s the title of this firm was
changed to M. A. Hanfia A Co., which
still exists; has been Identified with
the lake carrying busiuess, being in¬
terested in vessels on the lakes, and in
the construction of such vessels ; is a
director in tfie Globe Ship Manufac¬
turing company, of Cleveland; is
president ofl the Union National bank
of Cleveland ; president of the Cleve¬
land City Railway company ; presi¬
dent of the Chapin Mining company, di¬
Lake Superior; of the Union was Pacific government Railway
rector

President (Cleveland; was a delegate
to the national republican conventions
of 1884,1(888 and 1896; was elected

The Two Tariffs.
Figures will not lie, but men can,
and do often lie. The following fig¬
ures are taken from official reports
and show by comparison the results of
the Wilson and the Dingley tariff, as
revenue producers:
Wilson act. Dingley $6,987,702 act.
First month... $15,564,900 7,943,100
Second month, 11,962,148 9,713,494
Third month. 10,260,692 9,830,025
Fourth month... 11,203,049
Four months.. .$48,990,849 $34,474,321
This presents a balance of over $14,-
000,000 in favor of the Wilson bill. It
should also be taken into consideration
that the Wilson tariff was collected
during the panic of 1893 when busi¬
ness was paralyzed : the Dingley tar¬
iff was in operation under the influence
of McKinley “ prosperity.”
GEORGIANS AT A BULL FIGHT.
The Governor’* Partv Takes in a Typi¬
cal Spanish Exhibition.
Mexico City, Mexico, Jan. 9.—
Governor Atkinson, of Georgia, and
party are at the hotel Iturbide. They
have been hospitably received on the
way down, especially by Governor
Abumada, of Chihuahua.
Governor Atkinson on being inter¬
viewed on the Ohio senatorial election,
said: “ Personally, I think the defeat
of Hanna would do more for politics,
in some way*/ than almost any other
event that could happen. Mark
Hanna represents the commercial side
of politics,- which Is an influence that
has becottftf altogether too prominent
of late and is a matter which should
be seriously dealt with j therefore, I
assert that it should be a good thing
if the republicans would combine with
the democrats in defeating Mr.
Hanna.”
The governor’s party attended the
Mazzini bull fight this afternoon, and
were greatly interested. After the
fifth bull was killed a burning cigar¬
ette, dropping into a crack in 1 the seats
near the governor's party, set fire to
wood, which was dry and somewhat
rotten, and a fire broke out, causing
some excitement, but it did no* dam-
age. The has revoked' the
government Southeastern concession,
Mexican as
no money has been paid on the, capi¬
tal stock, and the concern lacked le¬
gal responsibility.
