The Elimination of Fora.

[ohio State JournaltRepublioan)l

Joseph Benson Foraker is serv-
ing his last term in the senate and
he will never be president of the
United States. Were he candi-
date for the presidency, which his
record and policies and the temper
of the people render preposterous
supposition, Ohio would go over
whelmingly DemocI attic. If he
persists in his campaign for re-
election to the senate and sue
ceeds in weighing the Republican
party in this state with the mill
stone of his candidacy, the people
of Ohio will select Democratic
legislature and send a Democratic
senator to Washington.
Ohio is done with Foraker. No
one outside the state can under
stand the intense feeling against
him. The people sold them out.
At the beginning of his career
they were won to his standard by
his forceful oratory and attain
ments. They believed he would
serve their interests Loyalty, eff
ficently and honestly, but public
trust and confidence in him We're
utterly destroyed and betrayed Mt
the first summons of the corpoIa n
tions, who needed Foraker and
were willing to pay good price
for him. From that time Foraker
laid his course to the goal of
money, prostrated himself before
the idols OF predatory wealth and
sacrificed the title of tribune and
servant of the people on the altar
of corporate greed. The corpora
tions long ago absorbed him; he
is a corporation man, and the
contagion Of syndicate and trust
ethics has seized upon him, render
ing him insensible and contemp-
tuous of public opinion.

he bought Lei mans half interest
IN the one at 707 North High
street, it was agreed that Lehman
was not to compete.
Martin, in his other suit, asks
1915. He says Lehman represent

half interest in the pool room for
5000 and secured this sum, when
he actually paid only 1925. He
wants the difference refunded.

Grosvenor In Line.

There is a probability that
General Charles II. Grosvenor will
soon get an appointment as federal
Judge. The question of new
federal judge in the southern dis
trict of Ohio is near settlement.
Representative Taylor of CO.
lumbus mas finally secured favor
able report on the proposition from
department of justice and a sim
liar report will soon be made from
the house judiciary committee.
Representative Grosyenor on
last Thursday introduced bill
providing for an additional judge
in the southern district of Ohio.
1t contains the fu rther provision
that when vacancy occurs in
that district it shall not be filled,
go that in course of time there will
be but one Judge.
This proposition is regarded us
peculiar, but General Grosvenor
explained that he had merely
followed the language of the bill
which created the judgeship to
which ex-Representative Taylor
was appointed a couple of years
ago. The illness of judge Thomp-
SON explains this. There is talk

AKIN LAW
IS VALID

cinnati Superior Court

Cincinnati, Jan. 2.-The judges
of the superior court Wednesday
handed down decision sustaining
the validity of the Akin law,
passed during the last session of
the state legislature, to increase
the saloon license tax from $3.50
to $1,000. the liquor interests of
the state were behind the move
ment to knock out the law. In
ruling in the case, the mem bers Of
the court decided against the sa-
loon interests on every argument
put forth by their attorneys.
The latter made much of the
fact that the late Governor John
M. Pattison was not in physical
condition to give the bill any con
sideration when it was passed by
the legislature. The court held
that all the prescribed forms had
been observed and his condition
could not inyalidate the law. The
caso will be carried to the higher
courts.

Holds Jones Law
is Constitutional
Judge Wood Hands Down
Decisions in Liquor
Cases.

In common pleas court Satur-
day morning, Judge Wood handed
down decisions in the Banks and
and Ashton liquor cases, deciding
each in favor of the State. He
overruled the bill of exceptions
filed In each of the two causes
and held the Jones local option
law to be constitutional.
Banks and Ashton were both
fined $50 and costs in Mayor Days
court on October 25, for keeping
open their saloons in West Athens
in violations of the Jones law,
but the payment of the fines and
costs was suspended until the de-
termination by common pleas
court of the questions involved in
the two cases. Unless the causes
are carried up to circuit court the
two saloonists will now be com
PEELED to pay the fines and costs
assessed against them. Mayor
Day holds certified checks given
by Banks and Ashton in payment
of their fines and costs in the
event of the decision of common
pleas court going against them
and if the saloonists decide to go
on further with their cases, the
money will be obtained on the
checks and turned into the city
treasury.
Judge Woods rulings on the
bills of exceptions were excepted
to by Attorney Lewis, who to-
gether with j. P. Wood, Jr., is
legal counsel for Banks and Ash
ton, and Mr.. Lewis stated that
the cases would be taken up to
Circuit Court.--Athens Gazette.

Foraker,s presidential tom-t ms
are beaten now with desperate
energy to win, by means of po-
litical claptrap and artifice, re-
election to the senate in spite of
an outraged public opinion to
which he dare not appeal. His
socalled candidacy for the highest
office within the gift of the nation
ris mere pretense to effect
his return to the senate under
cover Of confusing and bonn bastic
claims Of political power he does
not possess. His game is for a
deal that will include his re-elec-
tion as senator, and every energy
is being strained to impress the
party with the danger of his OPP
position and the necessity of his
cooperation. No one knows
better than Senator Foraker that
Ohio's indorcement of him for
president would be an absurdity
which the country would receive
with cry of derision, and that
the nation would answer the an
nouncement with q thunderous
veto, but he hopes the insincerity
of his candidacy and the underly-
ing purposes of it will not be dis
covered. 1t is no game for him.
In order to hold his seat in the
senate he harassed the gentle Nc
Kinley, and by studied abuse and
bluster, forced the peace-loving
president to compromise with him
in the interest of party harmony
and amity. This cunning strata
gem saved him from relegation to
private practice at the hands of a
legislature willing and anxious to
elect representative Republican
to che senate.
Foraker's persistent attacks up
on President Roosevelt and his
criticism and opposition to the
presidents corrective and reforma-
tive policies in the interests of the
people are plainly insincere. He
is fighting Roosevelt as he fought
Mckinley, and for the identical
purpose. Moreover, in antago-
nizing the president and champion
ing the corporations, Foraker
sought to force the eyes of the i'm
| terests on himself as an able SER
vltor.
But Foraker cannot force the
trick second time. The people
of Ohio will tolerate no compromise
with him. They determined once
and for all to remove the menace
of Forakerism in the interest of
official morality and political in
tegrlty. The process of elimina-
tion may be within or without the
Republican party, which Foraker
has misrepresented, but it will be
sure.

will have charge Of the eighth
district which includes twelve

in the evening and few muscular
lads soon landed it in the hall On

According to street rumor, some
of the Red Men were advised of
what was going on ana raised
rumpus and declared that their
hall should not be turned into
saloon. Anyway the wet goods
wera carried back to the street and
carted away to another hall whore
the installation took place. Tues
day morning the presence of "dead
soldiers" about the streets told of
the terrible battle that took place

History Of the Murder of
the Hunsacker Family

We have in our possession a
manuscript that was written about
one-hundred years ago, handed us
by Mr.. Mahala Hunsacker. The
paper reads as follows
"a history of the murder of the
family of Hunsackers, properly
Handsucker, in the State of Vir-
ginia, as given in the "Border
Warfare"
Towards the last of June 1892
another party Of Indians invaded
the settlement on Dunkard Creek
in the County of Monongaha.
Early in the morning as Mr..
Clegg, Mr.. Handsucker and two of
Handsucker' sons were engaged
at work in a cornfield near the
house they were shot at by some
concealed savages and Handsucker
was wounded and soon overtaken.
Clegg and Handsucker' sons ran
toward the house and the former
entering it defended it for awhile
but confident that he would soon
be driven out by fire, he surren-
dered on conditions that they
would spare his life and that OF
his little daughter with him. The
boys passed the house, but were
taken by some of the savages, who
were also concealed in the direc-
tion which they ran, and who had
just made captive Mrs. Handsuck-
er and her infant. They then
plundered and set fire to the
house; caught the horse and made
eff with the prisoners, leaving one
of their company as usual to
watch after their retreat.
When the fireing was first heard,
Mrs. Clegg, being some distance
from the house, concealed herself
in the creek under some projecting
bushes until everything became
quiet. She then crept out, but
perceiving the Indian, who had
remained near the burning house,
she took to flight, and he having
at the same time discovered her,
ran in pursuit. She was SO far in
advance and ran so we'll, that the
savage dispalred of overtaking
her. He raised his gun and fired
as she ran, the ball just grazed
the top of her shoulder, but not
impeding her flight, she got away.
Mr.. Handsucker, his wife and
child were murdered on the diyid-
ing ridge between Dunkard and
Fish Greek. Mr.. Clegg escaped
after some time and got back, and
upon the close of the Indian war,
ransomed his two daughters"

RUSSIA as war ROVER an lSDts
The centenary of the battle of Eilau
fought in midwinter, ts06-0T, serves tc
recall the status of Russia with respect
to the other European powers when
Car Alexander l. was on the throne
Napoleon defeated the Prussian forces
at Jena in October, 1906, and followed
up his victory by selling Berlin. Alex
Gnder I. marched to the rescue OF his
ally, King Frederick, and Napoleon
took the field against him, advancing
eastward through Poland as far as
Warsaw. This was critical hour for
Europe and momentous for its effect
upon fortunes bound up with Napo-
Icons. In Warsaw that winter the
French emperor met the Polish Count
ess Walewski, and what was called the
real love romance In his life was be.
gun. 1t has been said that the attach.
ment for the beautiful Pole first put
the idea of divorcing the Empress Jose
phine in his head.
Lovemaking, however, was not Ma
poleon's chief occupation while linger-
ing In Warsaw. West of him lay the
Kingdom of Prussia, overrun by French
troops, the throne once occupied by
Frederick the Great, at his disposal.
Eastward the Russians, under Alexan-
der l., with fragments of the Prussian
kings routed army, were seeking battle
France. Napoleon with his usual conf
dence proceeded to draft new map of
Europe. He afterward declared that
he would have dethroned Frederick,
whom he called "blockhead," and
set the crown of Prussia on the brow
of another Hohenzollern, but there was
no scion of this ancient house availa-
BILE excepting an insignificant staff off,
Ger in his own army. To such low es-
tate had the "parvenu emperor" as Ma
poleon was called, brought the king
dom which today Is the pillar of the
German empire Then the savior Of
Europe was supposed to be Russia.
Napoleon advanced to meet the allies,
and the battle of Eilau was fought
Feb. Z, 1907, amid a Dlinding snow
storm. Both sides claimed the vic
tory. Nearly one-third of the combat
ants were killed and wounded. Ac-
cording to Napoleon, his brother-in-law,
Murat, made the decisive charge at the
head of his cavalry. Court gossip,
however, has given another version to
history. Two of Napoleons infantry
marshals, Augereau and Lannes, pro
tested in the very teeth Of the emperor
that the honor belonged to their corps
and not to his favorite, Murat.
Whether wOrsted or not, Napoleon
did not change his plans. Three months
later he defeated Alexander at the bat
tie of Friedland and concluded the
peace of Tilsit. after which event Alex
ander and Napoleon were on much the
same terms as the cZar and the kaiser
today. Napoleon left King Frederick
his throne, but sliced up his realm, Civ
ing Prussia blow from which 1t never
recovered until the days of Wilhelm I.
and Bismarck. Napoleon always pro-
fessed that he wished an alliance with
Prussia as foil to the power of Rus
sla, but his plans were upset by the
lntrigues of Queen Louisa, Frederick's
consort, n woman noted for her beauty,
her character and her bitter hatred Of
Napoleon Bonaparte.
