added to some $4,000 of population
claimed by Akron would make 10000
people who wondered on SATURDAY., and
none wondered more than some .yentle-
men from other parts of the state who
have been nursing pretty good sized
ambition to be the Republican nominee
for Governor next year.
What they wondered at is told In
few words 1t was the evident use of
the meeting to advertise one mans po-
litical ambitions and the lack of cour-
tesy which other ambitious men
thought was their due in Akron
There were no Autographs displayed
except those of President Roosevelt
and General Dick, Congressman, chair
man and ever willing candidate for
office, title and honors.
Those whose wonder was so great as
to be heard were told that no other
Autographs could be had, but that did
not explain that none were asked for
and therefore the suspicion arose that
while others could not be had they
were not wanted.
Other gubernatorial candidates be-
sides General Dick, who, while de.
clnring all the time that II is too early
| to talk, never misses an opportunity
| to say that he never said that he would
not be candidate, and must therefore
be considered as having an eye on next
years nomination as upon pretty much
everything else political that might bt
thrown his way, did not enjoy the
opening as well as they might have en-
joyed it under other circumstances
There was Senator Hafting of Mar
ion who was lately indorsed by the
Republicans of his county. lie noticed

came over him that attacks so many

sleeves and go to work to secure the in

FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER, JOHN
MCNAMARA.

John Mcnamara, of Barberton, is a
self made man. By industry, reasona-
BILE frugality and judicious investments
he has achieved success for himself
in the management of his own affairs.
BY square dealing, ,helpfulness and right
living he has won that which is of
greater value-a good name, and all
that goes with it, the esteem of all who
know him and the confidence of the
general public.
Business men agree that asa business
proposition there should be at least one
Democrat in the Board of County
Commissioners, There is none there
now. The election of Mr., Mcnamara,
the Democratic candidate for the po-
sitlon this fall, will meet this require
ment and he himself will capably iill
all other requirements. Ho possess.

which he did Just last week, and he
saw Dick pictures till he was remind
ed Of his ocean voyages. And Daugh-
erty, he wondered. And even the boys
from Lisbon who are never suspicious
of anything done in the name Of the
Republican party, they thought If they
had only known it they would have
had some Autographs made for the oc-
casion.

THE QUARTER-MASTER'S REMEDY.

public that they must be satisfied to

words ON the other side may not be

lot Of not-aD-inchers who stood up be-

SARiE JAMES OBSERVATIONS AT
THE FAIR.

Yellow plush for waists and gowns
seems to be going out. Never mind,
though, purple plush is still popular,
and purple is a more regal color than
yellow anyway.
Though the custom seems to be dy-
ing out, there are still some boys and
girls who hold hands at the
fair-but they don't eat ginger bread.
Some things may be more poetical
than "squawkers," but a girl who can
not land bashful young man by a
proper manipulation of the "squawk-
err is a back number.
Some girls who wore silk gowns
didn't seem to be having half as good
time as the one In calico dress and
sailor hat.
The girls who stood on their dignity
had a very uncomfortable position.
The only thing to be frowned upon
at the fair was the man of 80 who
tried to flirt the same as the other fell
lows.
The girl with the red balloon and
the squawker and the ice cream candy
was the one who had the fun.

Certain publications are making
great deal OF tho fact of tho recent en-
tertainment of King Edward by An
drew Carnegie and of the German EN-
peror having been guest of j. Pier

II is not because of the millions these
men possess, but in recognition of their
great ability that they are treated as
equals by these royal personges. No
American citizen will doubt that Car

The Worst Form.

Multitudes are singing the praises Of
Kodol, the new discovery which is
making SO many sick people well and
weak people strong by digesting what
they eat, by cleansing and sweetening
the stomach and by transforming
their food into the kind of pure, rich,
red blood that makes you feel good
all over Mrs. Cranfill, of Troy, l. T.,
writes: For number of years l was
troubled with indigestion and dyspep-
sia which grew into the worst form.
Finally was induced to use Kodol
and after using four bottles | am en-
tirely cured heartily recommend
Kodol to all sufferers from indigestion
and dyspepsia. Take a dose after
meals. 1t digests what you eat.

point, which may be of value by way
of example of what may be done
Some thirty odd years ago James
Fisk Junior and Jay Gould undertook
to steal the Albany & Susquehanna
Railroad. With the help of Judge Bar
nard's court they did actually get pos
session Of the Binghampton end of the
line; but the owners of the road, with
the aid Of another court held on to the
Albany end
Then followed battle of legal jug
glery without n fellow in all the bad
history of bad system of jurispru-
dence. Receivers and counter-receivers
were appointed by one court, and as
quickly removed by another. 1njunc-
tons and counter-injunctions, writs of
mandamus and of assistance, proceed
iDgs in contempt, arrests and orders Of
commitment, petitions in habeas cor
pus and the like,--some Of them issued
by telegraph, were rained down upon
the contending parties, with profu-
sion which only roguish lawyers and
big fees could bring about. Trains
were thrown from the track and
stoned, switches were misplaced, rails
were torn up, sheriff's posses from diff
ferent counties drove passengers from
the trains, traffic was suspended, and
at last serious riot occurred at tun-
mel not far from Binghamton.
BY this time the public patience was
exhausted, their interests having been
quite ignored by the parties to the af-
fray. The courts dealing with the situ-
alton were corrupt on the one hand,
and powerless to protect rights ON the
other, and the people came to distrust
them completely.
John Il. Hoffman then was Governor
OF New York. After giving the courts
time to demonstrate their inability to
cope with the situation, he seized the
road by executive order, proclaimed to
the public that he had taken military
possession of it, In the name of the
State, and appointed Col. McQuade,
his Quarterlnastcr General to run 1t
In the interest Of the people.
The remedy was instantly effectual,
and pending the determination of the
rights Of the parties directly contend
ing by the courts of last resort the
trust was successfully and wisely ad-
ministered
II was curious commentary on the
assumed inerrancy of courts that q
| quarter-master should succeed where
| they had dismally failed. But the point
| for us Is that, in that case as in this
while the immediate belligerents were
fighting, the people who were depend
ent on the property which was there
by kept idle, were suffering, and theil
interests were being neglected. Find
Ing the courts inadequate to solution
Of the difficulty the executive graspet

not be done now?

columns OF the Republican papers and
Of Chairman Dick of the Republican
State Executive committee are to be

STATISTICS OF ACCIDENTS.

Reports issued recently from the
census Office at Washington indicate
that the proportion of deaths from &C
creasing.
During the census year twelve
months ending May 81, 1907 57,51t
accidental deaths were reported, OF
which 43,414 were Of males and 1905
of females.
The proportion of deaths from acct
dental causes, in 1000 deaths from al
causes, was 57.6. In 1890, the CORE
spending proportion was 1871.
The records kept by the accident in
surance companies indicate that about
SO, 1000 non-fatal accidents occur every
day from ordinary causes-that is
there are not far from IL 900 900 non
fatal accidents every year, $4,000 tC
every 100 900 population.
1t appears that nearly 6 per cen
of all the deaths in the United States
are due to accidental injuries, but it il
even more astonishing to learn thai
the probability that a person will NEE
with some disabling injury within 6
year is about eleven times greater
than the chance of his death from any
and all causes during the same period
When it is said that nearly 6 pei
cent of all the deaths are due to acct
dental injuries, it is TO be borne in
mind that this result is attained by
contrasting the 1,039,094 deaths from
all causes reported during the year
with the 57,513 deaths from accidental
causes during the same period.
But for the country, as a whole.
mortality statistics are more or less
incomplete.

DEMAND FOR MONEY.

Every year about the time OF the
moving of the crops, there is a strin-
gency of ready money in the market in
New York. Rates go up. and the sec.
rotary of the treasury often has to
come to the rescue by selling bonds
or some other form of action. This
season there has been rather an n III
ual stringency, and the New York pa
pers are all discussing the matter. Sec
rotary Shaw has taken such measures
as were possible to put more money
into temporary circulation, and It Is
said that a plan will be proposed at the
next session of the congress to do
away with the present s~ub-treasury
system, whereby the money of the
government Is locked up by hundreds
of millions in vaults, ana to distribute
it among national banks.
