feated in Cleveland, he took Roosevelt
with him. Notwithstanding that les
son, the president was ready and
anxious to get back in Ohio politics.
He formed compact with the Ohio
bosses for the endorsement of Taft.
This much is sure, had no such an
agreement been reached, Cox, Brown
and Guilbert would not have been for
Taft. Roosevelt bossed the building
of the platform and named the con-
vention's chairman and see what a
mess he got into. Now he is demand
ing new deal and an entirely new
ticket.
Ohio people want to be left alone.
They believe they are capable of run
ming their own affairs without any
from Washington and the
sooner President Roosevelt discovers
this, the better are his chances OF
retiring from the presidency with the
love and esteem of Buckeyes.

THE MAN AND HIS JOB.
(By Herbert j. Hapgood.)

1t pays to get ready for the oppor-
|tunity. True IT is that you may have
to wait some time for the real oppor-

than being forced to say: 81 missed

wasn't prepared" Get ready for the
and the opportunity will
soon be ready for you.
One day the president of one of our
great railroads was debating very
important address, which he had been
asked TO deliver on the liability or
the employer. A great many tech
nical terms. referring especially to in
terstate railway legislation were en-
ployed. The SIS per week stenog-
rapher took the whole bundle without
"a single inquiry.
"Now, don't get stuck, my friend,
spoke up the president anxlously, III
II hand out some new ones to you
Just speak up and I'll give you the
correct spelling. I've no time to go
over the manuscript and can't take
any chances.
II am quite familiar with every
phrase you have given me so far" said
the young man simply.

railroad business?"

job, but | though the day might
come when might need it."
The president dropped his notes. He
ran his hand through his iron gray
hair and brought 1t down on the
desk with bang.
Young man. | see that day com
ing!" he said with the weight OF
conviction.
IL did not come at once, by the way,
but the young man was gradually
promoted to an assistant scretaryship
with an excellent future in view.

The Columbus City Council ordered
that grooved rails be used by street
car and interurban companies and
then waited year for the change
to be made. The companies made no
move to comply with the demand
and the city put men and teams to
work on one of the lines. Such tao
tics might be effective in Marion as
well as in Columbus. Street car serv-
ice, the extension of water mains
which have been ordered, the re-
pair of street pavings which have
been disturbed by plumbers, and
gas and water companies and OBJ
structions in the street and on the
sidewalk might all be benefited ma
terially If the city authorities would
let It be known that they mean bust
ness.
