No SUPERVISOR YET
At Least, None Who Is Off,
ciaIIy Announced
THOUGH 1T is REPORTED
That George 0utcalt of Tecum-
sch Is the Lucky Man.

Guthrie, o. T., July s.-The prospect Of
an agreement among Barnes. Flynn and
Jenkins on a satisfactory person for CEN
sus enumerator today appears to be very
remote. The governor and Mr.. Flynn have
been holding daily conferences since last
Saturday and It Is believed that they
reached an agreement. This morning Sec
Rotary Jenkins was invited to join the con-
ference and remained behind closed doors
with the governor and Mr.. Flynn for over
an hour It Is said that the secretary was
firm in his inslstence that his two asso-
GATES should endorse Mitscher and that
the cosference came to an end without an
agreement being reached. Cash NJ. Cade.
the Shawnee banker, was suggested by
Mr.. Flynn as a suitable man for census
enumeration, which suggestion met with
the governors favor also. Mr.. Cade was
sent for and was In CONSULTATION with the
governor and Mr.. Flysn last evening.
He refused to allow his name to be con-
s!dered for the place, however, on the
ground that he could not afford to neg
iect his business interests. There have
been mentioned three or four persons upos
whom Governor Barnes and Mr.. Flynn
could agree, but no name has yet been
suggested that meets the appreciation
Of all three OF the referees. and the prob
ability Is that in the lack OF unanimity
the president viii take 1t upon himself 20
name a man regardless OF the fractions.
At least, such is the word that Is brought
from Washington by a gentleman who
stands close to the president in his per-
sonal and political relations. It was given
out at the close of the conference this
morning that Mr.. Flynn would leave this
afternoon for a two weeks absence in Mis-
souri, and Colorado and as the governor is
10 leave on Saturday it would seem tina.
the prospect Of an agreement is regarded
as hopeless.
Later-Anothe= conference between Gov
ernor Barnes. Delegate Flynn and Secre-
tary Jenkins was held this afternoon. at
which. It Is reported George Outcalt of
Teeumseh. was agreed upon fo- census
supervisor.

The different lodges of the I.O.O.F.

day morning TO st. Paul's Episcopal

iment band. The church was not
large enough to accommodate the
crowd, and many were compelled to
stand on the outside.

sary of this order, and the lodges as
sembled i'm obedience to the order of
the Grand Lodge, which designates a
certain day to be appropriately COM
menioratcd by the order i'm attend
auce upon Divine service.
Rev. Blake's address was instruct
i've and helpful. In his introductory
remarks, he reviewed the history of
the order, and showed its far-reach-
ing influence and power. In speak
ing of the twO-fOld intent of this
order, he said that the social feature
when properly governed, helped to
foster the better social elements, and
to make one more considerate of the
claim of others. His closing words
spoken with impressivcness and
earnestness, madea deep impression
upon the audience. Take the name
of Jesus with you, for in Him you
have the greatest friend. The most
astounding exhibition of love that
the world ever saw and the very es-
sence of all truth; for He is the Way,

VETERANS
Deserve a Hall In New
Courthouse.
Mr.. J. W. Little Suggests a Plan That
Will be Popular.

To the Editor of the DEMoCRAT:
Having matter L would like to
bring to the thoughtful people of
Summit county, bring it through
the DEMOCRAT, thinking it may
reach more people who may be iu-
terested than in any other way. I
was one of the men who voted for
new court house at our last election,
not that I want more law, but less if
possible. But what we are COM
PEELED to have, | want in good,
suitable place, and l want safe
place for all valuable records that
must be preserved and are very i'm
portant to nearly every citizen of the
county.
The proposition l want to bring for
all the voters to consider is that
when new court house is built that
a hall be made for the Grand Army,
with all modern Improvements, free
of rental. and for their exclusive use
as long as one member is living in
the county and then for all time as a
home and for the safe care of all
relics and records of every post in
the county, a sacred place where our
children can visit in years to come.
Why do I think this right and just?
Because the loyal men at home said
they would remember us if we would
go to the front. which they have
most nObly done. But the number
of our old soldiers are very rapidly
growing less i'm every post all over
this country, and many posts in Sum-
NIT county can hardly exist under
the expense of rent, etc, aside from
the work for the needy comrades.
Buckley post of Akron, one of the
largest in the state, does n work for
the needy of their post with that free
spirit of comradeship that is not
equalled anywhere in this great free
country of ours. Then the rent and
expense of keeping the hall is a bur-
ben where burdens should not fall.
What we want is home for every
G. a. r. man in Summit county,
when his post is closed for want of
members or otherwise.
j am sure that when the time
comes. (as it wild, that this thought
will meet the approval of all just
people in the county. There are
