The Department Justice is pro-

Standard Oil Co., the effect so far
has been to cause ,he stock of this
Co., to shrink up $140, 100000.
Had this Company been a lawful
one and dong all it's business in
compliance with the laws Of the
country, it would have nothing to
fear from attack, nothing that il
fair and upright would fear from
it, but everyone knows that this
money glutton has been stuffing its
NAV with it ill-gotten gain, and

In the world.
/ Paul Pierce. form erly of Mime
|apolis, now publisher of "What
To Eat" q food journal and au-
thority on the subject says of the
law: 1.-The passage of this law
has done more for manufacturers
of genuine tirstrate food products
in this country than all the ad-
vertising they have ever done in the
past. And to the men who raise
Americas farm produce it will be
a benefit which their minds have
failed to grasp as yet. True the
food conditions of America have
been advertised to the world, and
the first effect no doubt has been
disastrous. But the after effect will
be to inform the world that food
conditions in America have bee n;
revolutionized, that drastic national
and state laws have been passed,
and that in consequence of an this
government supervision American
food products will be unsurpassed. I"

There is a great deal said derogato'

tells people the unvarnished truth,

The fact of the matter is that it is
to his plain truths they object.

Newspapers as Givers.

In the course of recent address
| in the Unitarian Church, in Madi-
son, Wis.,, Amos Parker, Wilder,
editor of the Wisconsin State
Journal, said:
"Newspapers are the best givers
in the community. No one else
gives so much money to good
causes to a newspaper space is
money. The average citizen is in
terested in one good thing a hospi-
tai meeting or church supper or
the humane society. The news
paper is bolstering up half dozen
projects daily. 1t is sometimes said:
Why these topics are news-it is
to read about them that the people
subscribe to the paper. 1t is true
enough that the topics have a Ger
tain new value, out few lines
soon exhausts that. From the
standpoint of public interest it is
enough to know once that the
human society will meet Tuesday,
or that tho second ward Loyal
Legion will hold a concert.
A handful of people may be in
terested to have the announcement
dinned into their ears daily until
the fatal day, but a newspaper is
1pdbiised FOR many thousands OF
people. It's space is limited and it
costs money to set type.
mo one knows what immense
free service newspapers give to
these countless good causes and
how many journals have been
bankrupted because the owner did
not refuse, as citizens dec line to
give more than a certain amount Of
money, to turn newspapers over to
charity intsead of to ''news," which
the average readers wants. There
must be choice section of Paradise
reserved for this underestimated
profession which so loves it's fellow
man..

UNITED
MINE
WORKERS.

AT the opening session Tuesday
Of the eighteenth annual conven-
tion of United Mine Workers OF
Ohio in Odd Fellows hall, Colum-
bus. william Green, of Coshoc-
ton, was reelected president and
Dennis Sullivan, of Coshocton, was
reelected vice-president, each
without opposition.
G.. w. Savage was reelected
secretary over Joseph Richards, OF
Glouster. William Morgan, OF
Massillon, was elected a member
of the national executive board
over William II. rawford, OF
Pleasant City,
Auditors of the Ohio Mine
Workers elected were Thomas f.
Crawford, Conrad Vein, of Muir
ray City, and Lot Jenkins, of Car
rol county.
The vote between Savage an6
Richards for secretary is said tc
have been 393 for the former ano
113 for the latter.
New laws relating to mining by
electricity probably will be urged
by the present convention. Specia
laws will be presented for the pro
lection of the lives of miners. Il
is declared that two-thirds of al
of the coal mined in Ohio today is
mined by electricity. Deaths by
cantact with live wires are said tC
have been numerous during the
last year, and this is to be the
subject of discussion.
In his address yesterday morn
ing President Green criticised Sen
ator Pollock, who was chairman Of
the committee on mining. He de
clared the senator had been guilty
of duplicity in the treatment o1
mining legislati on.
The financial report showed
balance at the end of the year to
be $118,743.55.

ROAD WORKERS
lAthens Messengerl

There will be one time in the
year when the streets of Athens
will receive a thorough cleaning
and overhauling, and that will be
when the new road tax law be-
comes effective, and every male
citizen of the municipality who is
not ex-soldier of the United States
army with an honorable discharge
after having served in some war,
member of the Ohio National
Guard or contributing member to
same, or member of a volunt eer
fire company working without
compensation, will have to go out
on the streets, roads, lanes or al
leys of the city and work out his
three dollars road tax, which is to
be levied in accordance with an
act of the Ohio General Assembly,
passed at the last session, year
ago.
OF course there is provision
whereby the three dollars can be
paid in money, or the person as
sessed may pay substitute, if he
cares to, but it has to be paid,
there seems no way of getting
around the law.
In this city, it will be the duty
of the street commissioner to see
chat the money is paid, and when
the time comes for working on the
streets, he will not forget you

COUNTY CLERKS
Get Fees for Naturalization
Papers.

In an important opinion which
he rendered Friday to f. M. Ste
vens, prosecuting attorney of Lor-
ain county, Attorney General Ellis
held that the new salary law does
not apply to county clerks, inso-
far as their compensation for exc
cutting naturalization papers is
concerned. This ruling is impor-
tant'to the county clerks of all the
lake counties, to Franklin county,
Hamilton county and Montgomery
county, and also in the mining
section, where numbers of for
elgners acquire citizenship.
The naturalization law which
was passed June 30, 1905, provid'
ed that the fees should be divided
half and half between the county
clerks and the national treasury
In Elyria the question arose
whether the county clerk was moi
deprived of these fees by the
county salary law.
According to the opinion the
fee system will still obtain in Ohio

eerned and in this partis ular in

$4,000 for method of lighting
with alcohol without the use of a
mantle.
When gasolene motors came into
general use for governmental and
military purpose Kaiser Wilhelm
realized that there is no petroleum
in German territory and the
sources of supply might be cut off
during war. This fact led him
to adopt alcohol as substitute
aud to promote, by rewards, the
invention and manufacture of al
cohol motors for stationary and
automobile purposes of lamps,
cooking utensils and other appara-
tus for the use of alcohol. This
action of the Emperor and the
removal of governmental tax on all
alcohol that was officially poisoned,
resulted in large production of
alcohol for denaturization.

would better go or pay the money,
for if you fail to comply with the
law, there will be trouble coming
to you.
The following provisions are
made by the law.
The marshal shall be the chief
of police in villages and shall re-
ceive compensation for such du-
ties aside from those of his regular
duties, when he acts as road
superintendent. In the cities, the
Boards of Public Service shall have
the power to form road districts
within the corporate limits, and
the board is empowered to employ
road commissioner for each dis
trict. Everybody except those
mentioned as exempt by the law,
will have to get out and work two
days annually. The street COM
missioner or road superintendent
is empowered to order all persons
out between April Is and July l.,
but another clause in the act says
that they can be ordered out at
any time fixed by the trustees or
board. And each one that goes
out must take the necessary i'm
plem ents, such as shovels, hoes,
etc., with him. He must not re-
fuse to do what he is told, or he
will be liable to fine of one dollar
for each and every offense, 80 it
will be best to work the two days
and not make anv objection.
There are only two ways to get
out of it. Either hire some one
to work the two days, or pay the
road superintendent or com
missioner three dollars road tax
This must be paid within three
days after being notified,
In case it is not paid, and you
refuse to work on the streets, ac'
ton can be brought against you
