says:
',rhe Republican papers that talk

that some of their readers will be-
lieve them to be in earnest, but the
editors who publish such stuff know
that their talk is all nonsense.
",The Democrats of Ohio are in the
fight to win, and they will keep it hot

now on until the polls close If the

WHY THEY ADVERTISE.
(From the Philadelphia Record.

The great development of news
paper advertising has not been due to
the efforts of publishers, but to the
competition in business. AS the
cities have grown the business houses
have multiplied, and the most enter
prising merchants have enlarged
their share of trade by calling the peo-
pies attention to their wares. This
has forced all merchants who want
more than neighborhood business
to advertise. Now the people have
the habit of looking In the newspa-
pers for shopping information, and
the establishment which is not adver-
tsed is out OF the race.

OUTING
OF Officials aGIor. a
ious Affair.
Attended by Seventy.
Five People
And Everybody Had a
Good Time.
A Day When Cares and Worries
We're Laid Aside.

Everybody knows it was nice day,
and as the best of good humor and
kindly solicitude for the pleasure Of
one another predominated, the picnic
of city officials, held at Euclid Beach
park Thursday was certainly most
successful affair.
1t was free from any tired feeling,
from start to finish, and everybody
was interested, sociable ana gay. The
trip was made in two special A. B. &
c. cars, furnished free of charge by
the n. o. Il. Co. The party left Ak
ron at $40 and Euclid Beach park
was reached at IL o'clock. All the
way from Akron to the park, conversa-
tion never Jagged, nor was dull. Every
topic from new government for
Akron to the idiosyncracies of ex-Dog
Catcher Steeley was discussed, and
many good and laughable remarks
were made. Both cars were provided
with bountiful supply Of cigars, fruit
and chewing gum. Each car had a
smoking compartment, and so Gondi-
tions were pleasant for both men and
women.
A little incident, while en- route to
Cleveland, will serve to illustrate the
height to which the good humor of
the crowd had climbed A short stop
had been made at the A., b. & c..
power house, and thrusting his head
through window, Prisonkeeper
Washer saw a man who not long ago
was before the Mayor on charge Of
intoxication and begging.
Hello, swipes," yelled John; II
thought you were supposed to have
left this neighborhood.'
Sure enough, there's the same fell
low we ordered to leave" said Mayor
Doyle. "and he's sufficiently intoxi,
Gated to warrant his being run in
now. But say-let us give him ba-
mana"
The idea seemed good and Prison
keeper Washer pitched the fellow a
banana, to grasp which caused the
vagrant several falls in the dust, and
two or three turns over.
AT the park, to which the trip from
Cleveland was made from the Public
Square over the Euclid ave. line, ev-
erything was pleasant; the lake was
just rough enough to drive waves
against the beach with a force which
made bathing exceptionally fine, and
as soon as dinner was eaten--in a
summer building overlooking the lake,
and through which the breezes swept
with a delightful effect--the picnick-
ers began finding their pleasure in
various ways. The dinner was good
and we'll served. After 1t was eaten,
there were bathing, attending the
theater, walking back and forth on
the pier, and those who had children
with them We're fortunate to have ex,
cuses for riding on the merry-go
round and the miniature train. Some
stayed at the beach until late in the
afternoon; others went into the city
shortly after dinner, and in some way
or other everybody had a good time
Supper was eaten In the city, and or
