Obituary.
are made

Mr.. George Blosser was born in
Marion township, Hooking Coun-
ty, Ohio, Nov. 81, 1888, and died
at his home in Logan, Jan. 81,
1908, at the age of rs years, l
month and % days. He was mar
ried to Miss Hester Frasure June
8, 1854. Three sons and two
daughters were given to them,
John, Charles, Ellsworth, Mrs,
Mathiott and Mrs. Guerin. All
except SIX years of the married
life have been spent in Logan,
For 43 years they have lived on
this lot where death called for
him. Here he has waited until
the summons came.
Mr.. Blosser has been one of the
useful men in building up the
town of Logan. He was one of
our best mechanics and contractors.
He was free to consent that bis
son Charlie, under his instructions
became better carpenter than he
himself was, and many who knew
were free to say that Charlie was
the best mechanic in town.
Mr.. Blosser has had most severe
afllictions. For four years he has
been utterly dependent upon his
friends to lead and care for him.
He patiently waited all the time
becoming more willing to 60. The
end was so peaceful that those in
the room did not know exactly
when the last moment came.
The funeral occurred from the
the home, Friday afternoon at two
O'Clock, Rev. Il. b. White oillciat-
inn.

Party Organization.

Mr.. Bryan in the Commoner
wisely advises Democrats to or
ganize and thinks the formation
of campaign clubs will accomplish
the purpose. There is great need
for thorough organization for the
constant defeat of the opposition
party. In some states there
is nothing but skeleton in place
of an active body of voters work
ing and acting together. Mr.. Bry-
an Is therefore, none too soon with
his plan, although it is doubtful
If the formation of campaign clubs
will fill the void, or that enough
responsible Democratic voters can
be induced at this time to under
take the work and expense of
keeping such clubs alive up to the
time when the active campaign be-
gins next September. The much
surer and better plan would seem
to be to urge the state committees
and through them the county and
township committees, to weed out
and fill up the moribund organiza-
tion that already exists in some
states. Political organizations,
like an army, must haye both Off
GERS and men, and to have much
effect when the real campaign be-
gins the county and township COM

REMOVE
THE DAMS
| Athens Gazette.


The movement to do away with
the mill dams in the Hooking
river at Logan, Nelsonyille, Athens
and Canaanville, on a sanitary
basis, is rapidly gaining in public
favor. This agitation was begun
in both Athens an Nelsonville some
time ago, but was apparently
dropped from mind until Messrs.
John Campbell and Frank Roach
of this city revived 1t recently.
These two gentlemen went to
Nelsonville where a meeting of
citizens was called and the matter
was thoroughly gone over. The
upshot of it all was decision to
take immediate action and COM
municate the plan to Logan peo-
pie. Canaanvllle people are also
in for it.
Petitions are now being circu-
lated, and generally signed, ask
ing that the Ohio legislature set
aside a sufficient sum of money to
purchase these dams, five in num-
Der and located as follows; 2 at
Athens, | at Logan, l at Canaan
Vile and 1 at Nelsonville. 1t is
understood, however, that the dam
at Logan is owned by the state
and leased by private parties. OF
course the lease would need be
purchased,
Mr.. Campbell said to the Ga
zette Tuesday morning "Petitions
are out in every community where
the dams stand are are being
rapidly signed up. They ask that
the state purchas these dams from
sanitary basis. In both Athens
and Nelsonvllle the city sewerage
systems find outlets into the river
above the dams and thus the
carrying away of refuse is impeded
greatly. The lowlands of Athens
and other places could be drained
if the dams did not exist, Now
we must run our bitches and pipes
to points below these dams to find
outlets of suitable level Peo-
pie living along or owning proper
ty by the river, can readily appre-
eiate the value of such a move
ment.
"we have already secured an
option on the Barth dam at Athens
and expect to get others soon"

Curing Insomnia.

from insomnia told me of a sure
cure, saws Good Health Clinic.
"Eat pint Of peanuts and drink
two or three glasses of milk before
going to bed," said he, "and I'll
warrant you'll be asleep within
half an hour" / did as he
suggested, and now tor the bene-
fit of others who may be afflicted
with insomnia l feel it to be my
duty to report what happened, SO
far as l am able this morning to
recall the details. First let me
say my friend was alright. | did
60 to sleep very soon after my re-
tirement. Then friend with his
7 head under his arm came along
and asked me if l wanted to buy
his feet. l was negotiating with
him when the dragon on which l
was riding slipped out of his skin
and left me floating in midair
While | was considering how l
should get down, a bull with two
heads peered over the edge of the
well and said he would haul me
up if would first climb up and
rig up a windlass for him. So as

side the brakeman came in, and
| asked him when the train would
reach my station. eve passed
your station four hundred years
ago." he said, calmly folding the
train up and slipping it into his
vest pocket.
At this juncture the clown
bounded into the ring and pulled
the center pole out of the ground,
lifting the tent and all the people
in it up, up, up, while / stood on
the earth below watching myself
go out of sight among the clouds
above.
Then l awoke and found that l
had been asleep almost ten
minutes.

From Old Virginia 4.

AMELIA, c.. H., VA.-As we are
still enjoying the mild genial
weather Of the south few lines
might be welcomed from old Vir-
ginia. We have the finest wealth
er; warm and nice. Haven't had
any snow, but frosty nights, and
bright sunshiney days. People
here are plowing and making
ready for spring crops. We have
something like 80 acres ready for
the plow. A gentleman was here
on the 18th, from Hamden, N. Y,
and purchased a farm of 200 acres.
The gentleman from Pennsylvania
that purchased the 425 acres has a
saw mill on the grounds and ready
for use. He has made a sale of
one million feet of lumber. There
were two gentlemen here a few
days ago looking after the four
hundred acres at Maplewood.
Land is advancing somewhat in
price, now is the time to buy. l
will close by wishing lots of good
people from Ohio down in old VIr-
ginia where we have the finest
climate and best water on earth;
where every ones latch string
hangs out to all that are worthy.

paign calls for. 1t costs money
and great deal of work to prop
erly organize "to get the votes in
to the box" for that is the ulti-
mate end TO be attained, There
is a vast difference between organ
izing to elect ticket and organic
ing to nominate some particular
candidate. If, for instance, many
of the Democrats in the United
States join club organization,
with the purpose of nominating
Governor johnson, of Minnesota
as the Democratic candidate for
president and when the national
convention meets Mr.. Bryan is
nominated, what help would such
club organization be to the party.
In that case Johnson Clubs would
die natural political death. On
the other hand party organization
knows no candidate until the Off
cial nominations are made, and
then undertakes to elect them In
theory all members of the Demo-
cratic party will work and vote
for the party nominees and espe-
cially those who have been select
ed as officials of the party organi-
zation. Practically, however,
there are often members of COM
mittees who are lukewarm, be-
cause their particular choice is
not nominated for some Office. A
minority perty always suffers from
such cause, unless the party or
ganization is strong enough to
punish those who desert in the
face of the enemy, or who are,
discovered giving aid and comfort
to the opposition. Party orgoni-
zation has two ends, first to per-
petuate the principles of the party
and to elect those to Office who
will enact those principles into
law, or will carry out those prin-
ciples through the executive power
to which they may be elected.
Individual voters can d. but little,
but united with others they can
do much. The Democratic state
committees should at once COM
plete their organization and not
wait until the state conventions
elect new committee, but pre-
pare the ground for their success
sors. The timeiis all too short after
nominations are made to perfect
thorough organization. Now is
the time for county chairmen to
investigate the condition in the
voting precincts, and if the pre-
cinct chairman is lacking in energy
to set some other to work. Mr..
Bryan is right in his call for or
ganization, but beginning must
be made with the regular party
machinery and leave the organiza-
tion of clubs until the nominations
are made.

Getting Rid of White Grubn.

These suggestions regarding white
grubs were made by the Missouri Ex-
pertinent Station:
1t Is very difficult to do much in de-
stroying white grubs where they have
once gotten good foothold. About
the only plan is to put out new patch
and plow and cultivate thoroughly the
ground where the infested patch stands
These white grubs are the larvae OF a
group Of beetles known as May beetles
or June bugs. They feed for three
years as white grubs before changing
to adults, so that you will find various
sizes OF these grubs at the same time
in your patch. Some Of these will ma
ture one year, some the following year,
and 80 on. Cultivation is about the
only remedy for these grubs.
