Marion County to Get Some
Of the Money.
PIKE REPAIR FUND
Will Gst Several Hundred
Dollars From the State
Seventy. Four Of the Eighty. Eigh:s
Counties Warm Their Toes In the
State Treasury, This Year.

AS a result OF the movement in
Marion County Will receive $l,7O0
from the state and the money Will
be placed in the pike fund to be
used in repairing the roads OF the
county. The commissioners made a
request for the appropriation last
fall, and the money will be forth
coming during the first part or
February. Arrangements will be
made to commence extensive pike
repairs as soon as the weather per-
mits.
The amount given to each county
is in proportion to the size OF the
tax duplicate. AS the duplicate In
this county is far larger this year
than last the county will probably
receive more than $4,000 for pike
repairs from the state next year.
The following article vii | show
how readily the people OF Ohio are
taking up with the plan:
Some idea OF how rapidly the
people of Ohio are turning from
the old mud road and dirt pike
which constitute the greater por-
ton OF the roadways of this state
can be gained from a glance at q
.iolder containing two maps of Ohio
which has been put out by the
state department OF highways, OF
which Sam Huston is commissioner.
When the regular session OF the
18TH general assembly met In Co
lumbus in January OF 1906, Just
eight counties in the state were ap-
Iplicants for state aid in the Inn
provement OF their highways. Now,
after lapse OF only two years.
with the 77th general assembly
} still In session, there are "a coun-
ties asking the legislature for as
sistance in the building OF better
reads and Commissioner Huston has
! asked that an appropriation OF
$440,0O0 be made to extend this aid
to as many of these counties as It
will be possible for his department
to reach.
An increase OF sentiment SO as to
| extend over 66 more counties than
were asking for an Improvement in
their roads two years ago shows an
awakening that is encouraging in
view of the TACT that it is said the
United States is sadly behind al
most all other nations in road build
ing.
The maps alluded to have the
| counties which have applied for aid
printed In red. while those which
have not asked for help in road
Improvements are left in white.
Placed side by side on opposite
leaves OF the folder, the contrast
is not only remarkable, but con-
veys clearly. at glance, exactly
the extent to which the department
of highways has spread the senti-
ment in favor OF better roads over
the buckeye state.
The map OF two years ago is al
most solid white, while this year
the map is almost solid red only
with IA counties In white.
The Good Roads association Is 60
ing even further than Commissioner
Huston. and is urging that 81 OOO,-
600 be set aside to assist the various
counties In macadamizing and water
proofing their highways.
1t is very probable that 1908 wilt
witness vast Improvement in the
highways OF Ohio. - Ohio State Jour-

Discussed BY Erie Officials
and Employees.
AID FOR AGED men
Many Have Spent Their
Lives in the Roads Service
The Movement 10 Said to be Gaming
Favor Each Day and the Plan
May Soon be Realized.

There is much talk among officials
and employees OF the Erie railroad
concerning the establishment OF a
permanent pension system on the
road. The representatives OF the
several divisions OF the road Will
meet within few weeks and dis
cuss this measure.
There are at present about 10000
employees OF the road and 1t is ex-
pected that an assessment OF not
less than fifty cents per month will
be made and by this means the pen
sion will be brought within reach
OF all. The company has agreed, IL
is said. to furnish $4,000 per year
to the fund. There are at present
one hundred and fifty eight men
on the road who are out of work
owing to their age. The promoters
OF the pension system put forth this
fact as one OF their foremost argu-
| ments.
1t is believed that the time is not
far distant when the pension fund
will be established. Employees say
1t is most certainly needed and IS
growing in favor. more and more,
each day.

Attention Voters

| Two years ago number of ballots
were rejected in this precinct because
| they were marked with a lead pencil,
instead of the rubber stamp as provided
by law. A rubber stamp is placed in
! each booth for the use of the voter and
That stamp MUST be used by the voter
Ill marking his ballot If a voter marks
his ballot with q lead pencil or with
anything but the rubber stamp his
vote WILL not be counted.
Voters should also be careful to stamn
the cross in the square at the right of
the name of the candidate they wish to
vote for. If the cross is outside of that
square and so placed as to become u
distinguishing mark in the Judgement
OF the inspectors, the ballot cannot be
counted
A little care on the part of the voters
Will result in their ballots being cor
rectly stamped and counted. 1t is Just
as easy to stamp the ballots correctly as
1T is to stamp them wrong.
If voter does not know how to
stamp his ballot, he should procure a
sample ballot and consult someone. who
does know and thoroughly understand
how to vote before he attempts to vote
These sample ballots can be procured
from the inspectors of election ON cleo
tion day
Two years ago 80 votes were cast in
this precinct, only 33 short of the
number registered. This year there
are 535 voters registered and if the
same proportion vote as did in 1906,
there will be close to 500 votes polled.
In order that all may vote and that
confusion be avoided, voters should not
delay in casting their ballots Eleven
booths have been provided and every
thing necessary has been done to give
every voter an opportunity to deposit
his ballot.
The polls will open at 8 o'clock sharp
Ill the morning and remain open until 6
o'clock sharp in the evening, with the
exception of an hour at noon. This
gives 8 hours for voters to deposit their
ballots, an average of about so to the
booth. From this it can be seen that
every registered voter will have plenty
of time in which to vote, providing he
he does not hang back too long.

Commission Gets Fish

The fish commission of this state
has received 100000 of the eyed ova
of the royal chinook salmon which they
secured from the Oregon fish COM
mission through Mr.. H. G. McAllister,
master fish warden The spawn
arrived in splendid condition. 1t is
the intention of the commission to ex-
pertinent with these fish with the
final object of making them land
locked salmon and it is certain that
they can be retained until seventeen
months old. This experiment will
be watched by all fish culturists, as it
is something entirely new, and should
it prove successful it will result in
the stocking Of our waters with this
most desirable food fish. The COM
mission has not at this time decided
where the experiment will he tried
but it is most likely that Lake Tahoe
will be chosen, as this water is espe-
cially suited for the trial.

The Same Roosevelt

Those 'my dear Hartman letters
of President Roosevelt, which were the
sensation of the country last year. now
shed more light on the inner operations
of the republican party than ever be-
fore. Roosevelt summoned the railroad
magnate to the White House and told
him in what straits the republican
campaign committee was for funds
and also discussed railroad legislation
with him. Hartman returned to New
York and raised $26O,OOO for the re-
publican campaign of 1904. This was
all done on the quiet, the disclosure
having been made only last year by the
accidental printing of letter from
Hartman to a friend. And this is the
! same Roosevelt who pretends to be
shocked at the conduct of Foiaker's
relations with the Standard Oil com
pany. Exchange.
