ANNOYED .oIEFER,

r. B. Scott. Of Cadiz, O., last week
startled the voters Of the sixteenth con-
gressional district of Ohio by suggesting
that the nomination for the COMPRESSION
al seat, left vacant by the death of Capt
IDanford, be put up at public auction
and given to the highest bidder. Mr..
Scott, whose proposition was brought
out by insinuations that his antagonism
OF money spending in campaigns was
actuated by stinginess, put his PROPOSE
ton as follows:
81 will lead off with bid OF 100000
| for the place, and 10 order to beat the
Garfield law not giving anything to get
elected, but in case of election, agree to
donate the salary of the office, as it comes
| due, to the purpose of sending four stu
| dents from each county to a college or
university, giving them $500, or $3.50
[ year, or, if any county prefers, it may
have two students at $500 per year each.
| eff it be true that congressman
should pay for the honor why not do it
in this Straightforward, legitimate way,
aud thereby render great good to the
community, instead of prostituting our
ideas of liberty and constitutional gov
eminent by buying votes7 -.e-
| "Come on with your bids now gentle
men, and let us see whether the candi.
dates are really stingy or simply stand
on principle"
Mr. Scott is at present up in Wiscon-
sin on vacation, and it is not known
whether his offer has been taken up by
| his rivals for the nomination. He has
| earned his wealth through his many In
ventions. He is the inventor of the peach
and apple paper, the introduction of
which nearly caused strike in Eastern
canning factories and caused a mob of
excited girls to drive the inventor out of
a cannery. He has number of patents
on bicycles and automobiles, and invent
ed the pea huller, which revolutionized
pea hulling.
Mr.. Scott belongs to family of in
ventors, and altogether owns fifty re-
muneratlve patents. He wrote the first
book on Bicycles.
