II AYoR TOM L. JOHNSON of
Mere Presence

II II AYOR TOM L. JOHNSON Of
AVA Cleveland is still doing things.
1t is habit he has. Recently
he disobeyed court injunc-
ton In tearing up street car track
He got through that difficulty all right,
as he has got through SO many others.
Next week he will be doing something
else interesting. Nobody can predict
just what it will be, except that it will
be Tom Johnsonesque; also it will be
in favor of the people.
Unique and Refreshing.
johnson is SO individual that he is
like nobody else that ever was or is or
is to be. He is SO unique he is re-
freshing. He is in no sense freak.
He is too genuine and able for that
Your freak is usually fakir and u
lightweight Tom johnson is neither
He is man of capacity and character.
progressive and inventive, practical
and energetic, frank and open, vet
able to turn diplomatic corner; smil-
ing, democratic in manner and with a
fund of that charming something
known by the stock name of personal
magnetism, and withal so buoyant,
optimistic and determined that he ban
ishes obstacles by his mere presence.
The above sounds like fulsome eulo-
gy. In reality it is nothing of the sort,
but, on the contrary, is tame compared
with the original. Johnson has so
many sides that mere catalogue of
his accomplishments sounds eulogis-
tic. For example, he is an inventor,
having patented several improvements
to the street car system that We're
commercially successful and are still
in use. Again, he has been keen
financier and business man, thing
unusual among inventors. He is an
effective campaigner and convincing

that it should be called ice cream

IN MEMORIAM.

Closed e wearied that mirrored long
The growing greatness of the glorious west
Folded the hands Once vigorous and strong,
They lay nerveless the puseless breast.
Hands that in old days helped to turn the key
Aud ope the portals of scenic land:
That wrested it from grasp Of savagery,
Aud with ndomtable courage famed
The spark of enterprise until it blazed
Into a flame which the wide world gazed
For weary months across the sun-baked plain.
Mid dangers only lion hearts would dare.
On tireless feet beside the train
They ploddei on, and gave the laugh to care
Yondcr q goal which they ID fixed their eyes
A golden goal whose fame had reached their ears,
And ON and ON they trudged meath blazing skies
Popping the long whips DER the painting steers,
Until ia dim outlninss wierly strange

Safe a Journey in camp last,
What scenic visions burst upon their view

Good bye old Uncle George, Sweet be your sleep
dreamless in good Mother Natures breast;
May watchfu guardian angels ever keep
Their vigs the spot in which you

Upon the coming Resurrection Day,
And you forth from your earthly bed
To life, may you hear the Master say
