A POSSIBLE CANDIDATE
For Representative in the
Lower House.

Richland township never has been
honored with Representative in our
State Legislature, and since many
believe that there is a good chance
for some Republican to secure this
nomination, no one has positively
agreed to try for it, but almost every
one admits that Mr.. ID. 4. Liggett
would be the best and almost unani-
nous choice of the Republicans of
RichlaHd Township.
Mr.. Light has been an active Re
publican, making speeches, and
working for the good of the party
ever since he became a voter. He is
not an "old soldier, but he was a
member of Company F, Second Ohio
Infantry, during the Spanish Ameri-
can war, and his efficient services
were rewarded at that time by ap-
pointments and promotions.
With little outside encouragement
we believe that Mr.. Light would
announce himself as a candidate,
even at this late day, and if he went
into the race, with his hustling quail
ties and numerous friends he would
certainly win BELLE CENTER.

A terrible accident occurred at
Olean, New York, Monday evening,
by which eleven persons were killed,
and thirty injured, seven of whom it
is thought will not survive. An oil
train pulled in two, on a grade, and
part ran back down the grade, and
collided with freight. Some OF the
tanks burst, and the oil took
fire, making great sight, and
many gathered to see it. Other
tanks got hot, and burst, scattering
the oil over the crowd, killing and
burning them, in a horrible manner.
1t was a repetition of the accident
that happened here, on a smaller
scale, a number of years ago, when
young Mesheck Whetsel was burned
so badly, and others more or less
burned.

This Is not gentle word-but when you
think how liable you are not to purchase
the only remedy universally known and
remedy that has had the largest sale OF any
medicine in the world since is6s for the cure
and treatment OF consumption and throat and
lung troubles without losing its great popu-
larity all these years. you will be thankful
we called your attention TO Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary cough
remedies made by druggists and Others that
are cheap and good for light colds perhaps.
but for severe Coughs. Bronchitis. Croup-and
especially for Consumption, where there Is
difficult expectoration and coughing during
| the nights and mornings. there Is nothing like
| German Syrup. The . cent size has just been
introduced this year. Regular size - cents

ROOSEVELT
Is Not Seeking Empty
HOnOrS From the South.
If the Nomination Comes to
Him
1t Must Come From the States
That Cast Republican EleC-
tOrdl Votes.

OF late, President Roosevelt has
been considerably annoyed by Repub-
licans from the South demanding
'their share" of patronage, and
threatening to send solid delegations
against him to the Republican
National Convention.
This has been followed by a threat
to send a solid South delegation to
the Convention in favor of Spooner,
of Wisconsin. who, it is said, is favor
ed by ''the money power" of the
country, or in other words, the Trusts.
These things have gone so far that
Roosevelt has suffered the little birds
about the White House to carry out
the information to the newspapers,
that he wouldn't accept a nomination
from the Republicans of States that
cannot cast single electoral vote.
This not only shows the Presidents
characteristic pluck and indepen
dence. but his political sagacity as
well.
The people are going to make that
nomination-not the office-holder:
and office seekers; not even the party
leaders are going to have the job
| And they will nominate and elect
Roosevelt because he is for the peo-
pie and not the candidate of the
Trusts, and no. favored by the money
power.
This thing of office-seekers in the
South debating National Republican
nominations, has been attempted be
fore, and always resulted disastrously
to those who attempted to reach the
Presidency, through that influence
sherman, Arthur, and Conkling
backed by this section, failed again
and again to get the nomination
and when Harrison was renominatet
through that influence, he failed o
re-election. There must be a strong
sentiment for the nominee in thu
Estates that cast the Republican elec
toral votes or he is doomed to defeat
and if there is such a sentiment TO
any man, he will get the nomination
Senator Spooner may be misrepre
sented. He is good man, and Al
astute politician. He ought to hav
his eyes wide enough open to see tina
because Roosevelt is not the candi
date of the money power. he will b
renominated and elected: and tha
lno man who could defeat his nomina
tion could be elected. This is not
threat, but clear view of the politi
cal horizon, that every Republican
should be able to comprehend.

a JURY has finally been secured in
Chicago to try the coal operators for
conspiracy against the public well
fare, in holding coal trains back, un-
loading outside the city, and run
ming up prices because there was a
scarcity. There were 1918 men call
ed before a full jury was obtained.
The case is one of great Importance.
If case of conspiracy is made. it
will furnish a very important pre-
cedent. If the facts are proven,
there should be no difficulty in prov
ing the jurisdiction of the courts and
in making case.

New Members Coming in
Daily.
Eight Men From Here to At
tend the Great Confer
enCe at Topeka.
President Roosevelt and a List OF
Other Prominent Men Will
Deliver Addresses.

President Roosevelt has signified
his purpose to attend the conference
at Topeka, Kansas, April 30 to May
3. The Presidents well known inter
est iu the railroad men has undoubt-
edly influenced him to accept this in
vitation to meet this body of men
who represent the vigorous type of
manhood which he admires.
President E p. Ripley, of the San
ia Fe railroad, has agreed to run
special train from Kansas City to
Topeka on the morning of April 80
for the delegates.
Every railroad man who remembers
or who has heard of the Philadelphia
conference will endeavor to be pres
ent at Topeka, and l 200 is the least
number expected by the Topeka As
sociation.
A reception will be rendered at one
of the sessions by the Topeka Asso-
citation, assisted by the officers of the
Women's Auxiliary of the Interna-
tional Committee.
The hotels have made low rate
for all delegates. If desired two
delegates from each Railroad Asso-
citation will be entertained free of
cost by the Topeka Association. Ar
rangements are being made by the
International Committee whereby
most of the regular railroad dele
gates will be able to secure free
transportation. The Pullman COM
pany has granted one-half rates.
Inquiries regarding hotels and en-
tertainments should be addressed to
Richard Wilson, 325 Klein street, To-
peka, Kansas.
Among the speakers secured, in
addition to the President. are DIR.
Elmore Harris, DIR. P. S. Henson,
President Ramsey, Governor Bailey
of Kansas, General Manager Nudge
of the Santa Fe, Rev. Charles NJ.
Sheldon, Fred B. Smith, Walter c.
Douglas, DIR H. H. Gregg and John
E. Frost of Topeka. John ]. Nc
Cook will be the presiding officer.
Secretary Immisch, of the local R.
r. Y. NJ. G. A. has received applica.
tion blanks for eight men, who must
be members of the Bellefontaine AS.
sociation, who shall have the privil.
ege of attending as delegates from
here. But there will be no objection
to others going If they desire.
The membership contest recently
inaugurated is growing more inter
esting daily. A number of men are
determined to secure one of those
beautiful lanterns now on exhibition
at Cowman & Fawcett's drug store
some already having four, five and
six members to their credit.
The prize lanterns are more expen
sive than many people suppose. The
silver-plated one retails at SIS; tn,
o her four, which are nickel-plated
range in price from s. to sl2. Thes'
prizes are certainly worth working
for and any railroad man should fee
proud to possess one,
