HOW TO CURE "CLOvER-sICK" SOIL.

The failure Of red clover where II formerly grew
we'll may be due to several causes. The chief rea-
son is that the soil gets into acid condition in
which the bacteria that live In the clover roots
Will not thrive.
Then. too. in the usual treatment our soils have
had. the humus or organic decay is used mp. and
this. too is not only essential TO the lic OF the
micro-organisms in the soil but also makes tn"
soil more liable to bake hard. and often. when a
stand has been gotten. the ground bakcs SO hard
after harvest that the clover Ia killed out. solely
because OF the absence OF tho moisture retaining
humus. In other cases the deficiency OF tho min
eral elements. phosphorus and potassium. make 81,
hard To grow clover.
First cure the acidi;y OF the soil with appli-
cation Of lime and give the clover plenty of acid
phosphate land potash II the soil does not already
contain IT. and 1t will succeed Then adopt a
rotation TO restore the humus and there will be
continued success

Mr.. Bryan, and 81 say, as busl-

terested perhaps as any In the
general prosperity of the country,
as one who is bound to feel per-
soHally any lack of prosperity
among the masses that believe
his election will be benefit to
all the country and to all the
people. Those that talk other
wise, those who predict panic and
disaster as the result of the cleo
tion of an honest man chosen by
an honest majority of the people
are narrow minded aud near
sighted, or pretend tn believe that
which they know is not true, or
they are seeking to obscure the
real and vital issues of the cam
paign. Mr.. Bryan will make a
safe, reliable, conscientious presi.

American people, not any class,
and for that reason | shall work
for him until election and vote for
him on election day"

comes the additional revelation
that the governor of the state,
who used his official power to

they were under investigation, and
since tries to defend their official
misconduct, is also financially
interested in two banks that have
been beneficiaries of the official

difference between Judge Harmon g

bank having the states money on

in the state, in banks obtaining
like favors. Governor Harris
should have thought of this before
he undertook to excuse himself.

BILL There had been a man
elected Common Pleas Judge in
northern Ohio, and he had not
been admitted to the bar. There
is no law preventing any citizen
sitting even upon the Common
Pleas Bench whether lawyer or
not. A representative from that
part of the state sought to correct
that alleged unusual precedent by
seeking to have bill to pass the
Legislature making only lawyers
eligible to hold the office of "any
court of record" The northern
representative importuned Repre-
sentative John C. PettiJ to intro
-duce his bill for him, and it was
very plain how unpopular the bill
was, for it was never reported out
of the committee. Also II bill was
introduced to provide that only
lawyers are eligible to the Office of
Clerk of Court and to County
Auditor, but they were "kllled" as
they should have been, in the COM
mittees.
1t seems 30 be the policy of re.
publican bosses to seek out the
circumvention, the Capitalization
of power. They seek to place it
in the hands only of politicians
and lawyers the power to hold Of
flee. They would cut out the busi-
ness man, the school teacher, the
farmer and the county squire, the
man with the common school edu-
cation, from holding any Office of
trust of desirable salary. If the
farmers and the business men are
going to be deprived of aspiring
to county positions of trust, then
who are the men best qualified.

lawyers2 The policy best for the
people is that every man is the

Governor Smoked Out.

Governor Harris has been
smoked out by Judge Harmon on
his personal interest, while Cover
nor of Ohio, in banks having State
funds on deposit. The governor
admitted in speech at Xenia that
he is stakeholder in two banks
at Eaton, his home town, which
contain State deposits.
For the apparent purpose of dis
crediting Judge Harmon's reyeIa-
tion Governor Harris says:
"Judge Harmon puts the amount
at Eaton at $4,000 instead of
$40, 600 EACH"
In the statement finally forced
from State Treasurer McKinnon
by second resolution adopted by
the House after Mr.. McKinnon re-
fused to comply with the first
resolution, is shown that the
amount on deposit January 1S,
1908, in one of the governors
banks at Eaton, was $25, 5,000 and
also $25, 900 in the other bank at
Eaton in which the governor is
financially interested, which makes
$50, 900 OF State deposits in these
two banks. Judge Harmon did
not say nor attempt to convey the
idea there was $50, 900 in each
bank. He stated plainly that
there was $4,000 in two banks,
which the official rec ords prove.
Why The governor should try to
minimize the amount of State
funds deposited in banks in which
he now admits he has financial
interest is conjectural. Although
there is difference of $40, 900 in
the amount he confesses on the
stump and the amount officially
reported to the legislature by the
State Treasurer, that is really
small matter after all. The fact
remains, and is admitted by Gov
ernor Harris, that Judge Harmon's
disclosures with reference to the
governors financial interest in
two banks that have been favored
under the depository law, are
true. In the governors case the
principle involved Is the same
whether the amount is $780, 900 or
$40, 900 or $40, 900 or 81, 200.
As an only defense Governor
Harris seeks to offset Judge
Harmon's charge with statement
to the effect that Judge Harmon
is stock holder in a bank at Gin
cinnati which also has State funds
on deposit.
1t is unfortunate for the Cover
nor that he makes this comparison.
Judge Harmon 10 private citizen
and he cannot, therefore, be
charged with mercenary motives
in the exercise of official power.
1t is not because ITO banks have
been designated by State Treasur-
or McKinnon, States Auditor
Guilbert and Attorney General
Ellis, as state deposi tories, but
because banks in which McKinnon
