a week or so ago. Lieutenant Ingram
arrested n white woman named Pence,
OF Martins Ferry, for being drunk and
making demonstration on the streets
with a negro. She was given a jail
sentence and Is at present langulshing
In durance vile. Since her arrest new
developments in the case have come to

Pence woman was married to q negro,
living In Martins Ferry. Some time
ago she left him and ran away with n
n!neteen-year-o white boy to Wash

The news Of the young mans marriage

MADISON DISTRICT REPUBLICANS


Shoull Not be aIlsled by False Reports
Put In Circulation by Democrats.
For some time past the Democrats OF
Madison district have been busily en-
gagged In circulating false reports with
the Intent OF lniuring the Republican
candidate for school commissioner and
the hope Of elactlng their candidate
for the office, The methods have been
somewhat peculiar, as the reports are
given out In q way to make II appear
that the commissioners have given out
the, information that certain teachers
are to be dismissed from service. and
1t appears to depend entirely to whom
the story Is told as to the name OF the
teacher to be dropped. the intent being
to enlist the friends Of teachers In op-
position to the Republican candidate.
The stories in circulation are purely
creations OF schemers for political pur-
poses, and the Republicans should no:
allow themselves to be misled by them.
There Is no doubt but that other I'M
founded reports will be sprung on the
voters UP to and during election day
for the purpose OF hoodwinkIng them
into voting for the Democratic cands-
date. The falsity of these reports can
be easily ascertalned by consulting
with those in a position TO know the

POLITICAL NOTES.
Meetings In the FIXTURE and Gossip About
the Clubs.

Ohio Republicans who expect to vote
the straight Republican ticket should
simply place a cross within the circle
under the eagle and it will go through
all right. Every Republican In Ohio
should understand the ballot before he
enters the office or booth because tina
judges are not allowed to render any
assistance whatever, unless the voter
Is physically unable to mark his own
ballot. The Republicans should have
instructors on the outside OF the dead
line at each Of the polls to explain the
manner OF voting md should see that
every man knows how to mark his bal
lot before he enters the polling place.
The safest and best way Is to vote
straight and trade with nobody for
congressman or anything else.

Poor Indeed.

There are degrees and kinds of poverty,
just as there are differences of opinion
among those who compute and measure
poverty and riches by different standards.
Some men deem themselves poor because
they are less rich than others, again there
are comparatively poor people who are sat
isfied with competence. There Is kind
of poverty for which no amount of wealth
can compensate, namely, poverty of bodi-
ly stamina, evinced by nervousness and a
arrangement of the functions of digestion,
bilious secretion and the bowels. To re-
store vigor upon permanent basis there is
one remedy that fully covers the require
ments, s'ills the blli," and this Is Hostetter's
Stomach BItters. BY restoring digestion,
giving healthful impulse to the action of
the bowels and liver and tranquilizing the
nerves, 1t fuldlls the condition necessary to
q resumption of strength by the system. 1t
also overcomes malaria and rheumatism.

grow into indigestion, heartburn, dizzi-
