Democrat, one of the new men, is a
young business man of good education
and excellent capacity, who has never
held a city Office.
The Third District is composed of the
Eleventh, Twelfth, Twenty-third, Twen-
ty-fourth and Twenty-ffth Wards. John
Geiger, of the Twenty-fourth Ward, is a
Republican who can be left at home with
great advantage to the constituency he
would like to serve. Gabriel Dir, of the
Twenty-tifth Ward, was member of the
Legislature few years ago. He didn't
immortalize himself. OF the other Re-
publicans nothing in particular can be
said one way or the other. Albert Will
hanson, of the Twenty-fifth Ward, Demo-
crat, is young man of ability and en-
ergy, and has served the city satisfac-
torily.
The Fourth District is composed of the
Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Six
teenth and Twenty-second Wards.
Neither party in this district presents
men of whom much can be said either
way. Ex-County Commissioner Jacob
Baumgartner is in the Democratic
ticket. His record on the days of Huff
and Baumgartner, with Joe Safer fight
ing for the people, will not help him.
On the other ticket w. M. Ampt is also
something of an old timer. The others
ON both tickets are mainly new men and
generally of no great promise.
The Fifth District is composed of the
Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Nineteenth,
Twentieth and Twenty-frst Wards Ho-
gan, Democratic Alderman at Large,
ought to be, and without doubt will be,
badly beaten. The other Democrats are
mostly new men. The Republicans in
this District have a pretty good ticket
headed by Louis Voight, one of the most
faithful and industrious members of the
city government. Mr.. Chris Kiechler,
of the Twentieth Ward, is also an ex-
cellent nomination on this ticket. He
ought to be elected by good round ma
jority.
The Workingmen have made nomina-
tions in all five of the districts. Their
candidates are nearly all strangers to the
politicians, which is nothing against
them. They are reputed as being men
fully worthy of polling the full strength
of their party, and will be found conven-
lent to many voters who can not support
the Objectionable men on their own ticket
but do not want to put ON nominee of
the old opposing party.
This hasty review is made "with NAL
ice towards none," but with the best in
terest of the city only in view. 1t is
worth while for voters to remember that
in city politics it is more important that
a good man be chosen than that the NOM
inee of any particular party be elected
Cincinnati needs better class of NUM-
cipal legislators. Her citizens who are
most interested will not attend the pri-
mary meetings, and the only way for
them to achieve anything is to defeat OBJ
jectionable nominations at the polls.

If the world had not so MANY times
Oeen deceived into believing that gem
eraI Eastern war was inevitable, only to
see the clouds break away by some new
turn in international affairs, it would
now be put down as pretty certain that a
conflict between Russia and England was
at hand. There is very warlike appear
anee, Nevertheless, judging by the past,
We hclleve a resort to arms in some way
will be avoided. Russia has positively
declined to accede to England's terms for
Conference, and England has as posi-
lively refused to modify them. Then
Russia invited the other Powers to at
tend Conference without England, and
this they decline to do. II tie mean
time warllk5 preparations have been
going on in both England and Russia
England and Russia have both been en-
deavoring to secure the cooperation of
Austria. The latter Power sent General
1gnatietf to Vienna for the purpose
of convincing Austria that her inter
ests lay in coinciding with Russia, and to
make such arrangements as would at
least prevent an Austrio- English alliance.
Previous to his departure Gen Ignatieff
is reported to have said that he hoped for
the aid of Austria, but with or without
Austria Russia proposed to go in. While
nothing is positively known as to the re-
suit of Gen. Ignatieff's visit, it is pret-
ty well understood that Austria
has determined to remain neutral,
and let England and Russia
fight out their own quarrel. How a fight
can be avoided is not now clear; but
within the last five months two or three
Just such tangles have occurred, and as
they did not result in anything more Sc
rious than some very skillful diplomacy,
people are naturally inclined to believe
that the same result will follow the pres
snt apparently critical situation.

YOUR LOSS OUR GAIN

s'Here are the figures: Should the
Bland bill become law greenback and
bank notes will decrease in value
about $57 100000 and the United
States bonds about $4,000, 900. To-
tai, 1927 100000. So much for the
argument that unlimited silver will

Here are some more figures. The
assessed value of real and personal
property in this country is about 49,
600 ZOO, 900. s'Should the Bland bill
become law" the value of this prop
erty would increase about ten per
cent. That would amount to the sum
of So, 900. 100000. You see that what
is your loss is our gain. Where you

That MAN SAvAGE.-The Dover Democrat
says that Savage. the murderer OF Ro SO Vim

ing lived there year ago or more. While
there he went by the name of Young. He was
good-lookng and smart-appe airing man who
behaved so well that he worked himself into
the good graces and affections of a young lady,
and it was understood they were to be married
The lady had bank account with quite sum
in her favor, which she drew out, and then the
rascal Young, alias Savoie, alias Savage, stole
