to about 10 per cent. raise. 1t fully

cheerfully by the company and without
any unpleaSantneSs on either side. The
men got together and stated what they
thought was fair and just and the COM

cheerful and willing disposition to do
what was right and just.

Hence, from an early period men have
used the right hand to fight with and
have employed the left arm chiefly to
cover the heart and to parry a blow
aimed at that specially vulnerable re-

Tense superseded the fist il was the
right hand that gIasped the spear and

heart the shield or buckler.
From this simple origin, then, the

TO MARTINSFER
Comes the Republican Convention
which WIN Name
CAPT. DANFORD'S SUCCESSOR
As Congressman rom tho Sixteenth
Ohio District-Thc Date is septem'
bcr r. Primaries at Which to
Select Convention Delegates wan
DO Held September in all Counties
of the District Except Monroe.

Martins Ferry wins the contest for
the congressional convention for the
sixteenth Ohio congressional district
with hands down, Notwithstanding the
fact that the evening paper Of that city
strongly opposed It on the ground that
suitable accommodations could not be
secured for the 800 or 400 delegates and
others that would be present.
Martins Ferry people are indignant
over the course pursued by their paper
and assert that 1t should occasionally
advocate the interests of the town It Is
deriving It's support from. instead OF
trying to down any movement that may
be started by citizens to boom the city.
The congressional committee, COM
posed Of one representative from each
county, met In the council chamber at
Martins Ferry yesterday afternoon and
was not long in determining the place
and time Of holding the convention the
session lasted but one hour and fifteen
minutes.
The first matter to come before the
committee was the place Of holding the
Sixteenth congressional district con-
vention and Just one ballot was neces-
snry to decide the matter. steubenville
and Martins Ferry were the only cities
that had representatives present to ask
for the convention. When 1t came to
vote Martins Ferry was the favorite,
the ballot standing four to one in favor
Of that city. The next matter before
the committee was to settle the time of
holding the convention and the subject
required some time, but finally septem-
Der - was chosen as the date. The
primaries ut which to select delegates
will be held September End in all the
counties excepting Monroe, in which the
delegates viii be selected by the coun-
ty committee.
Judge w. c. DeFord, Of Carroll coun-
ty, was elected temporary chairman
and Frank Tyler, Of Monroe county,
secretary. This finished the work be-
fore the committee and It then adjourn
ed.
The members of the committee were
as follows: D. w. Beall, Of Jefferson;
T. B. Rouse, of Monroe, D. o. Rutan,
of Carroll; S. X. Mclaughlin. of Harrl-
son, and Theodore Keller, Of Belmont.
Mr.. Beali, committeeman from JEFF
ferson county, addressed the meeting
at considerable length and tried to per-
suade them that steubenville was the
place for the convention, and was the
only gentleman who voted to have the
convention In that city.
