If Col. Herrick, the Republican
nominee for Governor could meet
every voter in the State of Ohio be-
fore election day, we believe he will
poll the largest vote ever give any
Republican candidate for Governor
at his first election. No person can
meet him and look into his honest
face without feeling that he is worthy
the office he seeks and that he will
give to the people clean and excel
lent administration of State affairs
His countenancc bears the seal of a
capable and honorable manhood.

1t is now reported that the San Jose
scale is playing havoc with the peach
orchards of this section of the State.
A few weeks earlier it was said that
the frost had killed the peaches, but
now that those "frosted" peaches are
growing rapidly it is necessary for
the peach growers to make a change
in their howl, and they now mourn
over the Scale. There's nothing like
having more than one horn to blow.

The Republicans have nominated
Senator Calvin P. Godfrey to succeed
himself as Senator from the 33d dis
trict of Ohio. The Senator has had
one term in that Office, during which
time he was regarded as one of the
leading Senators and his record is
one that reflects great credit upon
himself and district. His re-nomina-
ton by acclamation was a deserved
compliment. His record is such that
he will go into the campaign well pre-
pared to battle with the opposition.

County Auditor Harding may well
feel proud of the manner in which
the Wood county delegates stood by
State Auditor Guilbert for re-nomina

was taken as much to honor Harding
as to favor Guilbert. This action,
however, was the correct thing to do.

TO ASK NO CHANGE IN THE LAW
Oklahoma Farmers Mutual Insurance
Companies viii Wait for
Statehood.

Officials of the Farmers Mutual In
surance companies, of which there
are three in Oklahoma, met here to-
day to decide whether they should
ask for additional legislation. They
agreed that with statehood seemingly
so close at hand IL was lot expedient
to ask for changes In the law. The
law requires that each company shall
have a membership of LOCO In Okla
homa. This provision has kept out
foreign companies. II was believed
that any legislation at this time would
bring on a fight to reduce the men,
bership requirements. In conference
with William Grimes. insurance com
missioner, the companies agreed not
to insure more than 200 acres of wheat
on a single section of land in 1903
Among the officials here were A. II.
Gelsler of the Medford company; G
w Barnes. president OF the El Reno
company and NJ. Burke. president Of
the Perry company. The companies
we're declared to be in a prosperous
condition.
