VAlvN0R = rs MISSING
Aged Citizen May Have Been
Robbed Of Money and
Then Murdered.
TO DRAG THE RIVER
In Search Of Body is the Idea
of Some of His
Neighbors.

/. William Vannort, an aged citizen,
residing near Mt. Clare. is myster-
iously missing. and his family and
neighbors fear foul play.
Mr.. Vannort sold his place In
August and intended to move to Ra-
cine, o., and purchase. property there.
But, two weeks ago last Saturday he
came to the city and drew all his
money out OF the bank and has not
been seen here since.
On that day he purchased some
bread and meat and some cord to tie
up his furniture preparatory to NOV
ing and sent them home to his aged
wife. After that he disappeared.
z At first 1t was thought he had gone
to Virginia. where he resided In his
youth. but no trace has been found
of him there. Another idea in con.
nection with his disappearance is that
he had been waylaid, robbed and
murdered on his way home from the
city. With this idea gaining ground
there is talk Of dragging the dam IN
the hope of recovering the body
which the highwaymenr are suspected
of throwing into the river to conceal
the crime.
Mr.. Vannort is 81 years of age and
well known in the community.

Prominent Speakers Here
Next Month.

The fourth annual meeting of the
West Virginia Board Of Trade, which

dress upon "The Development of

The matter of bulk law in the
state will receive particular attention
at the hands of the board of trade
and the National Credit Mems Asso-
citation, with headquarters in New
York, have sent word they will have
a speaker for the convention on that
subject. The campaign for new
members is progressing rapidly and
indications point to the meeting
showing the largest membership in
the history of the organization.

not explain the vigorous prosecutions
by the Republican administration OF
large corporations that had violated
laws. He tried to excuse the con-
nection OF the Standard OIL trust
with the Democratic party by saying
that he thought 1t Formerly was on
the Republican side. The Demo.
cratic solution OF making big corpora.
tions obey the laws, Mr.. Cornwell
said, is to"dissolve and destroy"them.
The Democratic theory of destruction
was further illustrated by the speak
er in an explanation of the Bryan
panacea which would require paten-
tees and manufacturers who make
more than a half OF their products tc
curtail their business, close down
their factories. discharge their work
men and sell off a part OF their prop.
erty.
After dwelling at length upon cam
paign contributions, but not explain
ing why the Democrats would not
make public the expenditures OF their
campaign funds as the Republicans
will, and telling the workingmen
present that Bryan was their friend
even with his MISUNDERSTANDING
theory of free trade, and making a
few cloudy remarks about court in
functions, Mr.. Cornwell pulled out
his watch and said he would talk a
bit on state affairs.
Sidestepping all statistics and ex.
plantations of the workings of the
Republican tax reform laws, Mr.
Cornwell said that these laws are nc
good. not because they provide a
more reasonable and equitable sys.
TEN of taxation and relieve the small
er property owners of the burden oil
taxation, but, because he thought the
laws were enacted in order to build
up the Republican party. He, quite
naturally, perceived that sentiment
had gone toward the Republican par.
ty for its work in providing these
good laws. Another reason that the
tax laws are no good was because
boards of equalization for the assess
ment of real estate had been provided
for by them thus helping out the Re-
publican party in spite of the fact
that these boards are to have Demo
cratic as we'll as Republican members.
These two statements about the
tax laws completed Mr.. Cornwell's
discussion of state issues. Many
wondered why he confined his "dis.
cussion" to such a limited sphere.
Mr.. Cornwell made no allusion to
the Jim Grow and disfranchisement
planks, evidently getting the impress
sion that the News mans white mans
party, headed by a colored boy.
meant that the race problem, as they
call 1t, had already been solved.

there was no occasion for any over.

and a large number OF sboys were in
attendance. which swelled the crowd
considerably.

OF Cheboygan. Presque Isle. Alpena

Disgust
And Disrnay Among Demo.
Gratis and is Likelyto Be
Taken Off the Stump.


Chills crept up and down the backs
OF the old veterans of the Democratic
faith here Thursday night and the old
war horses quiyered with fright, when
John j. Cornwell, of Romney, the
Democratic nominee four years ago
for governor of the state. declared
that Uncle Joe Cannon would be the
next speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives, that Congressman Hub
bard would be returned to Congress
and that that body would be Repub-
lican. He made this prophesy, in ex-
planning that Judge Taft. though he
believed him to be big and good
man and sincere on the tariff ques-
tion would not be able to have the
tariff revised. And, in this declara-
tion he admitted in an implied man
ner at least that Judge Taft would
be elected. But, the climax of ter
ror came TO the proverbial unterrifled,
when Cornwell said that each county
in the state will have an equalization
board of two Republicans and one
oSh0SioL lSiCallCls TIC llS
nor ands about this either. He left
the firm impression that the state
would go Republican, indeed, he ad-
mitted 1t in his utterances about the
equalization boards.
So dlsgusted and alarmed were the
Democratic leaders who heard him
that it is believed that 1t will be
found expedient to take him off the
stump at once. Down deep in their
hearts they know that he must be
squelched, as he is doing the cause
OF Democracy, they say. more harm
than good.
To the committee in charge of the
arrangements for the meeting must
be given credit for prudent foresight.
In order that there might be some
applause occasionally the committee
had. stationed a squad of small boys
with drums short distance from the
speakers bench and at the cue for
applause these boys would execute
roles upon their drums, while others
blew horns and campaign whistles.
1t was a great scheme and made a
whole lot of racket, but the noise was
nothing like the big outbursts of en-
thusiasm from the people that char
aeterize Republican meetings.
The greater part of Cornwell's
speech was given over to national is
sues. his idea, doubtless, being to
dodge as many of the state questions
as possible. He went on to say that
the trusts had the Republican party
by the nape of the neck, but he did
