A pIscoRpANT NOTE.

We notice by the Canton papers
that the Stark county bar association
will meet Thursday for the purpose OF
passing resolution asking the leg
tslature to give this judicial district
another Judge, who will be selected
from Carroll county. This division is
composed az Carroll, Coiumbiana and
Stark counties, and now has three
judges, Amber, Harter and Hole, to
try the cases. II they are really ov-
er-worked, then we are In favor OF
the fourth judge. Suppose that the
present judges could, without mental
or physical detriment, attend to all
the court cases In Columbiana ana
Stark counties. and assuming that
Carroll county will be granted Judge
who will sit in all cases In this county,
how much salary per day will he re-
ceive, when actually employed, pro-
viding We have the same amount OF
court next year as last? Farmers
and taxpayers, don't you think II
would be advisable 10 have six COM
missioners? Or really what do you
think? Don't you think that II we
don't get down TO business soon and
vote for what we think is right. that
81 will be necessary TO increase the
infirmary directors TO a number equal
20 the cross roads In the county, and
have one stationed at each place, dir
Getting each passerby TO the nearest |
poor house? p. s. The initiative and |
referendum might come TO pass before
the above interrogratories are answer
ed.-Carroll Co. Free Press.
The above is from the Foraker
champion OF Carroll county and Is pub
lished by the chairman of the Repub-
lican senatorial committee Of this dis
trict II is understood that the sug-
gestion for fourth Judge Is one OF
the outgrowths OF the recent senator
ial convention in this city, and from
the above utterances II is evident that
there Is not a reliable character OF
harmony prevailing in the Republican
ranks Of Carroll county. II is another
discordant note in the prevailing clam

A REPUBLICAN PAPER
Springs a New story Of Mayor Toms
Alleged Ambitions.

AleDcu Nmplttono.
The Cleveland Leader Sunday print
the following:
Columbus, March 21.-'Important
II true" was the sentiment expressed
by Democratic state politicians today
over a report that Tom L. johnson
Is considering the advisability OF be
coming a candidate for the nomina'
ton for auditor of state.
The story which has come here hai
II that the Cleveland mayor really
wants to stand for this Office. but
that members OF his political cabinet
are urging him not to do so. In the
plea that he is too big a man for the
place.
The only motive Mr.. Johnson could
have for seeking this office would be
TO control the taxation machinery oil
the state. II the other members OF
the state taxation boards were DEM
ocrats he would be In a position 10
put many Of his taxation theories and
schemes into practical operation II
he were auditor.
Democrats here do not think the
Cleveland mayor seriously regards
Atlee Pomerene, OF Canton, as the
probable nominee for governor. They
profess the belief that he named Mr..
Pomerene for that Office simply that
two popular Canton Democrats might
kill of one another IN bitter pre-
primary campaign in their own coun-
ty and Mcknight get the delegation.
A popularity contest has been pro-
posed for Mr.. Pomerene and John G..
Welty, through primary, the win
ner ofwhich viii name the delegates
to the state convention.
This. however. is illegal. Carmi A.
Thompson, as chief supervisor OF cleo
tion. when asked about the legality
OF such a plan by II. C. Pontius, OF
the Canton election board. replied:
From a perusal of the law Il is
apparent that party may select can
didates to go on the ballot or dele
gates to go to convention, but l
hardly think that the section is broad
enough TO permit party to select by
primary man who shall choose the
delegates which would be the case
under your question.
'This question was gone into very
thoroughly prior to the recent Repub-.
lican primary in Ohio. and this de-
partment determined at that time
that the section could not be con-
strued broader than to permit a can
Aidate to select list'-or men who
should be his delegates. In other
words. run In his interest. SO my
opinion is In this instance that your
for district or state Of
hces may select list OF delegates
and have them voted for as such. This
ruling, OF course. contemplates that
the party calling the primary has
provided for II In the resolution"
The opinion of state politicians is
that Mr. Johnson. by humping togeth-
or the heads OF Messrs. Pomerene and
Welty, will get rid of both, and that
his real candidate for governor Is
Brand Whitlock. OF Toledo. or A. p.
OF Ottawa.
That he ls trying 10 control the
district delegation Is In
dicated not only by his backing OF
lhe primary cNndIdacy Of Mr. POM
irene, but also by the declaration OF

Republican Party Aims to Conserve In

Various injunction bills were consId-
cred in committee during both sessions
of the Fifty-ninth and first session Of
The SIxtieth congresses. During the
first session of the Fifty-ninth CON
gress several bills were before the
judiciary committee. and hearings
were accorded and considered. 1t was
found however, that the labor inter
ests of the country could not agree
upon any one bill and that Inherent
labor leaders were opposed to one or
the other bills under consideration.
Again, during the first session of the
Slxtieth congress the judiciary com
nnittee of the house gave more time
and attention to the various bills pre-
scented, but it was found that no bill
could be introduced that would be sat
isfactory to all the labor interests and
no bill upon which all members OF con-
Rress could agree. This SO called anti
Injunction legislation is by no means
partisan matter, and so far neither
Democrats nor Republicans have been
able to agree among themselves to a
bill that would seem to satisfy all con-
cerned. There is no doubt, however,
that in the near future some bill will
be enacted into law, and when it is it
will be found that it will provide pro-
lection for not only labor and capital.
but for the public as weIr First it
must be constitutional, and then it
must be of such nature that it will
not lead to disorder and riot, but will
conserve the best interests of the peo-
pie at large and not be drawn in the
interest OF either capital or labor. but
for the good and protection of all.
