There will be no joy for Hanna in
the Cleveland election returns and none
for Dick when he hears from Summit
county.
The only wonder is that when Sem
ator Hanna stepped in and finished the
code he did not put in his perpetual
| franchise clause
Shall the monopolies and great cor
porations pay their just share of taxes? ?
Every voter will have a chance to an
swer this question Nov. A.

| When the smoke Of the battle clears
away, the victors will be as follows:
Probate Judge w. e. Young; Sheriff,
z. l.. Fillius; Clerk Of Courts, A. T.
Paige; Treasurer, r. l.. Andrew;
County Commissioner, John McNa-
mara: Recorder, J. H. Burt; Coroner,
DR.. G. ]. Hayes; Infirmary Director,
B. r.. Davis.
1t seems that the Democrat was right
when it charged that the "Jost letter.
was written by Republican "ringsters, y
instead of Democrats. At least,
Grandma Beacon has not had a word
to say about 1t since. This is conclu-
sive evidence that there was nothing
in it, and it is also evidence of the fact
4 that Grandma is in the habit of fibbing.
1t is only in consideration of Grand
mas age and feebleness that the term,
fibbing, is used.

Grandma Beacon Is now arguing that
one of the requisites of the office of
Probate Judge is ability on the part
of the incumbent to successfully ma.
nipulate the police force. While she
doesn't say this in so many words,
1t is not hard to draw the inference.
This conclusion is surprising bit OF
swiftness and honesty on the part of
Grandma. She has been swift enough
to see that during the past few years
the Probate Judge has been running
police affairs, and she is honest
enough to say so.

certainly one of the greatest things
for lungs and vocal organs that I ever
heard of. Look at that boy of mine
out there now" he added, pointing tc
a youth with hair flying and mouth
wide open. as he delivered the Higt
school yell. You'd have thought 8
year ago that he was a weakling, but
by the amount Of noise he makes,
think he'll live to good old age.
didn't think my boy could make noise
like that"
None of the Democratic candidates
needs to be alarmed by anything OF
an uncomplimentary nature said o.
them by Grandma Beacon. Let hel
alone and she'll contradict it of hel
own accord. A week ago she declared
that there was no truth in the state
ment that Mr.. Filiius, candidate fol
Sheriff, was a popular man. On Sat
urday evening she began sentence
as follows: up in the northern par
of the county where Mr.. FiIliul
Is the most popular man." This wal
very kind of Grandma. The Demo
Gratis have all along been saying tha
Mr.. Fillius was lone of the most pop
ular men in Summit county" bu
Grandma declares without equivoca
: tion that he is "the most popula
;. man. For all Of which, three cheer
l for Grandma!
