Why Long Should Be Defeated.

Editor Oil Review:
I read an article in the Tyler
County Journal criticising the Of
fetal acts of W. E. Long, Asses
sor of Tyler county. While Re-
publicanism has given the facts
as he understands them he GER
tainly has been furnished with
false data. He says previous to
Mr.. Longs induction as Assessor
the station of the Eureka Pipe
Line company, located at Braden,
on Indian Creek, was valued at
$12, 500, but Mr.. Long raised the
value to $75,000." Then it was as
sessed $4,000. Probably that
was a fair value, as there was but
little machinery there at that
time. At the present time, howev-
er, the station with all it's fix
lures, is estimated to be worth
$1,00O,000. If Mr.. Long was so
anxious to raise the valuation on
their property why did he 60
with the company's attorney to
his deputy to try to get the valu-
alton lowered? He was heard to
remark the company was the first
to offer him a job. Notwithstand-
ing their stuff was valued too
high. Verify, truth is stranger
than fiction. If a man is not hon
est as a private citizen he is not
likely to be in an official capacity
One plea for Mr.. Longs election
is his true Republicanism: Ii Mr.
Longs ticket could have been
seen seen two years ago there is
no question but what it would
have shown scratching. While
am a Republican, [ concede the
privilege to every American citi'
zen to belong to any party ne
wishes, but I want to see the gen
uine article. Il have no use for the
man that kicks because things
don't 60 just his way.
Yours truly,
ANOTHER REPUBLICAN.

OLD POTATOES.
The Supply Getting Short and the
Price Very High.

There is a great probability that
the lover of the Irish potato will
have to be satisfied with the new
product within the next few
weeks, whether he relishes this
kind or not. Last years output
is about consumed, and the price
has gone sky-high. Furthermore,
it seems that with failure of the
supply comes an increased de-
mand from the consumer.
/. "The main reason for the scar
city of the potato" said a Wells
street produce merchant yester-
day, "is because of the recent
hard winter. Farmers in North
ern Ohio, Michigan and York
State, following the old custom,
buried their potatoes and other
root products in the ground to
keep them through the winter
months. Not expecting such an
exceedingly cold snap no extra
precautions were taken, and on
digging up their products for the
spring trade they made the start
ling discovery that most Of their
treasures had been frozen.
$50 great is the scarcity that a
Northern Ohio firm from which |
recently ordered carload of the
tubers has spent two weeks en-
deavoring to scrape up enough to
fill the order, and yesterday sent
me word that I would probably
have to be satisfied with a three
quarter carload, as they could not
send more. The wholesale price
per bushel is now $3.50 for the or
binary kind and about So for good
seed potatoes.
"New potatoes have been COM
ing in rapidly for the past few
weeks, and within the past few
days there has been a drop in
price from $3.50 per barrel to
$3.50. They are fairly large ia
size and of good quality. Most of
the supply of the new product
comes from Florida.
"Among the other products
that the farmers preserve during
the winter in pits in the ground
is cabbage. This stock was prac-
tically destroyed by the frost and
none can now be procured in the
markets. The new cabbage, how
ever, is being shipped in great
quantities from the Southern gar
dens, and the price is dropping
steadily. Within the past few
days there has been a falling off
in the price from $3.50 to 1915.
"'The supply of Florida toma-
toes is unprecedented at this
time of the year. The quality is
excellent and the price of the new
product is less than that Of the
canned article. Green beans are
coming in fast and have recently
experienced a drop of Is cents.
The same can be said of peas,
whose price has lately been de-
creased by fifty cents. "

DANIEL w. HILL
LARD DEAD.

The numerous friends of Daniel
w. Hilliard will be panied to learn
of his death, which occurred last
evening at 7:20 o'clock at the

lard, on Diamond street. De-
ceased was in the thirty-frst year
of his life, and his death was due
to. typhoid fever.
Mr.. billiard s illness covered a
period of about six weeks, but up
until Friday his condition was

ture. However, the disease as

sufferings as above stated. He
was an exemplary and industrious
young man, and highly esteemed
by all who knew him. He was a
native of Venango county, Penn
sylvania, mad had been located in
this city two years. Previous to

his brother, j. A. billiard, who
conducted a secondhand store.
Deceased was a single man, and is
survived by his parents, residing
in Venango county, Pennsylvania.
Also a brother and sister Of this
city. The funeral services were
conducted at the home OF his
brother by Rev. A. S. Kelley, pas
tor of the Baptist church. The re-
mains were taken this afternoon
on the 1 ST train to his former
home in Venango county, for in
terment.
The body was accompanied by
his brother, j. A. billiard, and
wife; his sister, Mrs. E. F. Stuck,
and husband, and T. A. Ferguson.
