Daily the people nre finding out more
and more concerning the disgra ceful
record Of the late Ohio Legislature.
The act which deprives property own
ers of the right to redeem title to their
property when sold for delinquent
taxes, passed for the benefit of fee
seeking politicians. is the latest bit OF
unpopular legislation to come to the
attention of the people. The burden
of the law will fall chiefly upon work
tngnnen and farmers, the owners Of
little homes. who through some mis-,
fortune or oversight, may have their
property sold for taxes. Under the for
mer law these property owners had
two years In which to redeem title to
their property but under the new law
they can only retain their ownership
by bidding II in at public sale-a pre-
carious and expensive method. But
the politicians had to bc taken care of,
and they were.

The proposed joint conference Of
the Democratic and Populist state
committees next week has aroused
the middle.of.the readers again. The
Clay Center Dispatch, W. D. Vim
cents paper, says; without dis
cussing the merits Of the case, or rails
ing any question as to whether or not
it is good golitical policy, the poPu-
lists Of this county will not vote
ticket labeled Democratic under pres.
ent conditions. Knowing this to be
fact, and assuming that Clay is fair
sample Of the counties in the state, it
is perfectly plain to US that this par
ticular solution Of the fusion problem
Is no solution at all. 1t is utterly
useless to consider 1t further. The
successful carrying out Of a political
program requires votes. When there
is, right at the start, positive assur.
ance on the authority Of the voters
themselves, that the needed votes are
not forthcoming, there is nothing to
be gained by further attempts in this
direction"

night was a decided success, and re-

The assembly room Of the college was
Hastily decorated with flowers and
pictures, and every chair therein was
occupied.
Several vocal and instrumental Sc.
lections were rendered by Miss Kug-
Ter and her pupils. The piano solos
by the pupils rendered great credit
on the department and its training.
The readings rendered were given
under the direction Of Prof. W. E.

ton department Of the college. Mr..
Carter himself rendered several selec-
lions and greatly pleased the audience,
which never failed to encore him.
He is a good impersonator. He has

rapidly building it up. This enter
tainment is said by many to be the
best ever given by the college.
