| allowing the public works department
to drag and for Increasing the bonded
Indebtedness of the city. The i'm
mediate settlement of the street car
question at no less than seven tickets
for twenty-five cents is demanded.
The limit of franchise is to be twenty
years. These demands, 1t is alleged
by the Democrats, were found neces-
sary as result of the campaign for
municipal reform waged by Mayor
johnson since his election to the Of
flee and which has attracted national
attention. The Democratic platform
adopted at today's convention reaf-
firms the well known program of
Mayor Johnson and points to the
many betterments instituted since
he has occupied the office of chief
executive of Cleveland.
The coming campaign will not be
the first In which Burton and John
son have faced each other on the
field of political battle. 1t was Bur-
ton who defeated Johnson for con-
gress after the latter had served two
terms in the national Legislature,
having been previously elected as a
Democrat In a district which was
largely Republican.
Up to the time of Johnson's ap-
pearance in the arena of municipal
affairs, Cleveland was a normally Re
publican city by from seven to ten
thousand. In national elections the
Republican candidate has always re-
ceived a majority of the votes cast,
and this was true of local elections
until six years ago, when Mayor John
son made his advent. In the last
two campaigns made by Johnson he
years ago, he piled up a plurality of
which he gained in the first struggle,
six years ago, and his last race, two
years ago. he piled up aplurality of
nearly 10000, several thousand
greater than the normal republican
plurality. The county as well as the
city, as result of the johnson lead
ership. has become solldly Demo-
cratic.
Delegates to today's convention ad-
mitted that in Congressman Burton
the republicans had put forward
the strongest possible candidate, al
though they refused to admit the pos
sibility of his defeating Johnson, he
has been returned biennially with
out opposition in his own party and
with only perfunctory opposition by
the Democrats. Burton and JohI.-
son are undoubtly the two strongest
men in northern Ohio. and the strug-
gle for the mayoralty will be a bat
tie of gaints.
The daily sentinel., 1907-09-19

1t Is believed that President Roose-
welt will make a speech favoring
Burton's election during the cam
paign, and William Jennings Bryan.
and other national leaders of the
Democracy have promised to come to
the aid of Johnson. Already the
greatest enthusiasm is manifested by
the partisans of both sides and the
struggle will undoubtly be more pic
turesque than any ever known in
Cleveland, not expecting campaigns
in which the late senator Hanna
was the central figure.
That Congressman Burton has an
eye on the presidency is the belief
of many Cleveland politicians, who
declare that Roosevelt Is bent not
only on selecting his successor in
office. but also his successors sue
cessor. They declare that the plan of
running Burton for the mayoralty
was decided on at the conference
ia which the president, Secretary
Taft, and Secretary Garfield took part
and that 1t was agreed that II Il
should be found impossible to nom
mate Taft at the Republican national
convention, Mr.. Burton should be
brought forward as the dark horse"
If Burton should succeed in defeat

and put him in line as a Taft sue
cessor, substitute or cabinet member.
On the other hand, If Burton
should be given n decided setback
in Ohio that would be of great aid
and comfort to the Foraker forces.
Senator Foraker has openly an
nouhced his belief that Johnson is
invincible and that Burton's nomina-
ton for the mayoralty was a tacti-
cal blunder that will cost Taft the
presidential nomination. No one can
defeat Johnson, declare the Foraker
followers, and Burton's nomination
means his elimination from Ohio's
political affairs and a new lineup
of politicians throughout northern
Ohio.
According to Mr.. Burton's politi-
cal managers, his success in the may
orally race is already assured, but
they add that II will in no way af-
feet his probable candidacy for Sem
ator Foraker's seat in the senate.
Mr. Burton will retain his seat in
the house of representatives and the
chairmanship of the rivers and har-
bors committee at least until after

held in November. The platform on

THE MEMORY
OF GARFIELD
HONORED
(sentinel's Special News service)


Long Branch N. j., Sept. '19.-Long
Branch today honored the memory of
President James A. Garfield, who died
here September 10, 1881, by laying
the cornerstone of $4,000 mem
orial to be erected in Ocean Park.
The monument, when completed
VIII be seventeen feet high and TWEEN
ty-eight feet wide, surmounted by
a bronze statue of President Gar
field.
The Garfield Monument association
was organized last year and the
money for the memorial raised by
popular subscriptions of one dollar
each. The memorial will set forth
in enduring stone the incidents of
the presidents removal to Long
Branch on September G, 1881, when
the presidential special travelled from
Washington to Elberon in six hours,
thirty-four minutes, and the sad end
ing, which occurred in the Franklin
cottage on Ocean avenue thirteen
days later.
Old residents distinctly recall the
bringing of President Garfield to
Long Branch. The single track lead
ing from the line of the New York
and Long Branch railroad to the
Franklin cottage. a distance of a
half mile, was laid in single night.
The first ties were not on the ground
until 1900 p. m, and the next morn
ing an engine was gliding over the
improved track, which was not torn
up until after the body of Garfield
had passed over the road to Washing
ton. Many of the cottagers have
souvenirs of the track, and Oliver
Byron, thel actor. built a cottage
from the ties, which he named Gar
field hut.

DAVIS ON LINCOLN
(Leslie's Weekly.O


Nobody now believs that the
. leaders of the Southern Confed-
! eracy had hand, directly or
. indirectly, in the assassination
/. of President Lincoln. Never
. theless, It is a satisfaction to
/. read bit of testimony which
i conclusively exonerates the
. late Jefferson Davis. Recently
! Mrs. Hayes of Colorado Springs
. daughter of Mr.. Davis, stated
| that after the death of Mr..
! Lincoln her father explained to
. her that the terrible deed was
! done by crazy man, who no
! doubt thought he was the
i saviour of the South, but who
! was really her worst enemy.
! Mr.. Davis further said:
! Always remember, my little
/ daughter, no wrong can ever
! make right. The South does
! not wish her rights to come
! through dastardly murders,
! but through fair fights. This
i is the bitterest blow that could
! have been dealt TO the South

! man and would have been fair

! OF the Southern people. His
successor is man we can ex-
