FORAKER'S CHOICE.

The Republicans of Delaware came
down to Columbus in force to capture
the opening meeting of the Ohio Re-
publicans. They met Gen. Dick and
Senator Foraker, and left for home
firm in the belief that they would Sc
cure the prize. The matter will not
be definitely determined, however,
until after the meeting of the state
executive committee, to be held at
headquarters in the Columbia block,
next week, when the claims of Elyria,
Findlay and other applicants will be
presented and expat:ated upon. How
ever, Delaware made big bid for the
meeting, and both Chairman Dick and
Senator Foraker encouraged them to
put it very mildly. Senator Foraker
went so far as to authorize Chairman
Dick to say for him to the committee
next week that he favored Delaware's S
selection, and the chairman went al
most as far. There are three places
that seem like home to me-" said Sen
ator Foraker, "Hillsboro, near where
was born; Delaware, where / went
to school and met the lady who is
now my wife; and Cincinnati, where |
have lived for SO many years. Ohio

DITTEY TALKS.

Judge R. M. Dittey, of Highland
County, staunch Democrat and one
who is well informed on the political
matters of Ohio, in a signed editorial
published in the Columbus Press-Post
few days ago, says the new legisla-
ture will have 33 senators and 110
members of the house. On the basis
of last years vote the senate will
stand Republicans "a, Democrats 8
and the house Republicans 81, Dem
ocrats 26. 1t will require 72 votes to
control on joint ballot and to do this
Democrats must not only carry all the
counties and districts they did last
year, but must make a clean gain of 81
votes.
In summarizing the situation, Judge
Dittey says:
1t is evident that it will be impossi-
BILE for the Democrats to secure con-
troll of the next legislature unless they
can elect their ticket in Hamilton.
Cuyahoga and either Franklin, Mont
somery or Lucas counties, or failing
to carry one of the first named, must
carry the remaining four. That is the
way it appears on the face of the re-
turns.
1t is further evident from Judge
Dittey's article that he is absolute
ly without hope Of his party gaining
control of the legislature, and his
views are shared by every sensible Re
publican and Democrat in the State
Marietta daily leader. (Marietta, Ohio) 1895-1906, 1901-08-16

Editing a paper is a nice thing. If
we publish Jokes people say we are
rattle Drained. If we don't we are a
fossil. If we publish original matter
they say we don't give enough selec-
taon. If we give selections they say
we are too lazy to write If we don't
go to church we are a heather; if we
do we are a hypocrite. If we remain
in the office we ought to go out and
hustle for locals; if we go out then
we are not attending to our business;
if we wear old clothes they laugh at
us; if we wear good clothes they. say
we have pull, Now what are we
going to do? Just as likely as not
some one will say we stole this item
from an eXchange-and we did.
Marietta daily leader. (Marietta, Ohio) 1895-1906, 1901-08-16

A town cannot grow and become a
city by reason of her natural advan-
tages alone. 1t all depends upon the
enterprise of her citizens. This is
what is making Clarksburgl Her cit
izens have money plenty of 1t, and
are not timid about investing 1t. Our
citizens are engaging in all kinds of
enterprises, not depending upon out
side capital to come in and build up
our town. The many new corpora
tions being chartered which are COM
posed of home people attest the con-
fidence of our citizens in Clarksburg's
Clarksburg Post.
This applies to Marietta and every
other city or town.
Marietta daily leader. (Marietta, Ohio) 1895-1906, 1901-08-16

Gen. LGwtons name will be per-
petuated by one Of the most thriving
towns of Oklahoma. That town will
probably be a candidate for capital
honors when the territory becomes a
state. The opening of the Indian res
crvations will add 100000 to the popu-
lation of Oklahoma. 1t is likely that
at the present time there are in the
neighborhood of five hundred thous-
and population in the territory. None
of t~e new states had anything like
this number of inhabitants at the time
of their admission. Many states are
in the Union now which are below Ok
lahoma in population. The chances
are that the territory will be admitted
carly in the term of the next Con-
gress which meets in December.
There will be an active contest for the
distinction Of being the capital, and
Lawtons chances for getting the
honor are favorable.

LOVE-.

Stronger than death is love: she
cannot doubt, and never will with
passing years grow cold, but now and
ever she will softly fold our hearts
within her keeping. All about and
over them she traces good, each day
disclosing some new blessing that our
souls delight, and unexpected makes
the shades of night grief brings to
steal our joys away, break into morn
ing. Leads us on through desolate
barren ways, and though the world
may us defame glories to call us low
ingly by name. False she can never
be, is ever true, and we have wealth
who have not gold or lands, if by our
side whate'er betide. Love stands.
Once when lilies were in bloom
Summers breath perfuming,
| wandered with my little love
My blue-eyed baby grooming.
! crowned her with the lilies,
With violets and lilies
Once again at close of day
Whip-poor-wills were calling,
We two strayed through garden
paths.
'hid blossoms softly falling.
crowned my love with lilies,
With violets and lilies.-
Now the lilies bloom once more,
Little love is slpeeing-
Dimpled hands and feet are still
And while weeping,
Crown my love with lilies,
The snow-white fragrant lilies.

ANNEXATION SENTIMENT.

A Washington dispatch says that re-
ports which are now being received
from the island of Cuba indicate that
as the Cubans realize the Importance
and magnitude of the task which they
are attempting in the formation of an
Independent republic, sentiment in
favor of annexation to the United
States increases.
Pressure has already been exerted
by so many factions in Cuba ard
from interests in this country which
see an advantage in having hand in
forming the government, that those
having the task in hand are greatly
perpleXed. The Cubans realize from
day to day that a complex and diff
cult condition will face them as soon
as the authority of this country is
withdrawn. In private letter and in
the changed tone of the press there
are many indications that annexation
sentiment grows, and the cry for a
republic is being confined in smaller
limits.
The statement cabled from Havana
that Gen. Gomez has come out in a
declaration that he has not advocated
annexation for the island of Cuba and
that his attitude was mistaken while
in the United States, is not considered
seriously by the war department Off
cials, whose duties place them in po
sition to become familiar with the
affairs of Cuba. Communications
througA both official and unofficial
channels are on file at the depart
ment to show that not only Gen. Go
mez, but large element of the bet
ter class of Cubans, favor annexation
with the United States.
The statement relative to the atti-
tude of Gen. Gomez Icing misunder-
stood is taken at the department to
indicate only a shrewd political move
on the part of Gomez. He came out
openly in favor of Palma for the pres
idency, and there is reason to believe
that on his return some of his old ar
my adherents pointed out that he
could not forward the chances of Pal
ma for the presidency and at the same
time urge that the country become
a part of the United States.
