NEITHER HAS CONTROL
JOHNSON AND ZIMMERMAN IN CLOSE
HITCH IN OHIO.
Result of Saturdays County Conven-
tions Leaves the State i'm Doubt
Johnson's Points of Interest.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 22.-The county con-
ventions in Ohio to-day that selected dele
gates TO the Democratic State convention at
Columbus next Tuesday and Wednesday
indicate unusually close and bitter con-
test for the head of the ticket. AS there
are only two candidates for the guberua-
torial nomination-Mayor Tom l.. Johnson,
of Cleveland, and John L. Zimmerman, OF
SpringfeId-there will be only one ballot,
but both sides will no doubt continue claim
ing the nomination until the result of that
ballot is announced
1t is known tonight that neither Johnson
nor Zimmerman has enough delegates in
structed or committed TO nominate, and
that the result may depend the settle
ment of contests from. half dozen coun-
ties. This makes the committee creden-
tials one of decisive Importance. The pre-
lminary work of the convention at Column
bus will be of more interest than usual in
the selection of all the committees. If
Mayor johnson is the nominee he must con-
troll also the committee on resolutions, as
he could not run on a platform constructed
by the so-called Zimmerman conservatives.
He also is interested in the rules and order
of business, he wants John Bookwalter,
of Springfield, Endorsed for United States
senator to succeed Mark Hanna, while Zlm-
norman wants no senatorial Endorsement.
AS Zimmerman and Bookwalter both live
at Springfield, the Johnson men want the
senatorial Endorsement to come up under
the order of business before nominations
for State offices. The Zimmerman men
want the State ticket named first. At the
same time Johnson, as the recognized cam
didate for the presidency, wants control
of the new State central committee that
holds over until next year
The members OF all these committees are
to be selected on Tuesday and the one win
ming then, especially in securing a ma
jority of the committee on credentials Will
control the convention on Wednesday.

The Grass widow.
Philadelphia Record.

THE origin of the term grass widow -
said a philologist lis puzZling Some say n
came from the Frcnch-that VI was origi-
nally grace widow that is. widow BY grace
or courtesy. Others say IL derives from
the old English custom of a mans hang
ing out n broom when his wife was away
over night. To hang out the broom was a
common phrase. When the thing was done
the meaning was that the house had been
swept clear of the wife's presence and the
husbands friends were 90 visit him and do
as they pleased. I'm time. instead OF hang
ing out broom. the husband came To hang
out only bunch OF grass. Thus. he grew
