Of Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Taft at a banquet
here October Z. John W. Kern, democratic
candidate for vice president, and James 5.
Sherman. republican candidate for vice
president. met today.
Mr.. Kern in a dark business suit and the
latest thing in a green Fedora, was stand

The stranger did as suggested, and then
Mr.. Sherman and Mr.. Kern began moving
toward each other and presently the long
sinewy hand Of the second man on the
democratic ticket was grasped in the
plump one Of his republican opponent.
They smiled genially, exchanged ~felicita-
tions on the drop in the temperature and
other c-ommonplaces, and then departed to
catch trains.
Kern's Big Four Pass.
with reference to the Big Four pass be-
longing to Mr.. Kern, and which was re-
ported found yesterday, It leaked out that
Mr.. Kern had lost it along with the other
contents of his pocketbook at Connors-
vile, Ind, upon his recent visit there. Mr..
Kern believes that in the press OF the
crowd, the wallet was deftly lifted from
his pocket. 1t was returned to him by mail
at Baltimore, minus the money that was
in it, and the pass. The other papers in it
were intact. The pass. Mr.. Kern said,
was found carefully placed under a rock at
Connorsville. AS attorney for the Big Four
he was entitled to transportation under
the law, he said, but had no use for it.
Mr.. Kern left today for Kalamazoo, Mich,

Rustin testelfied that the last telephone
call she received was about 1880 o'clock,
from DR.. Rustin. ,
Then he took up the Rice woman's story
about her connection with the physician
and her relations with him previous to
his death. He recited how she met the
physician when he called to attend her
''and after these operations she had the
chain around him" He said: w care
not whether it was a golden or a sllken
chain, or whether ii was an iron one, but
she had the chain there, and she swears

only few votes behind the Republican
ticket, which was elected The Prohibi-
ton vote ran in last falls election, from
10 to 1879, most of the Prohibitionists
having a comfortable majority.
This result has been due to long con-
tinued, persistent work on the part OF
a comparatively few men, prominent
among whom is Joseph E. Walton,
prominent farmer, stockman and horse
dealer. Mr.. Walton is an active granger,
and large proportion of his brother
grangers are in hearty accord with his
views on the Prohibition question.
The call has been issued for the
Columbiana county Prohibition conven-
ton, which will be held in the city hall
at Lisbon, the county seat, at 10 a. m,
Thursday, June II. The convention
will name a county ticket, select dele
gates and alternates to the state con-
vention in July at Columbus, and name
a new county committee.
An aggressive campaign will be car
ried on this fall, and determined effort
made to land one or more Prohibition
lists in county offices.
Realizing the value of the circulation
of Prohibition papers in the county, the
committee will, without doubt, arrange
to push the circulation of The National
ProlribitionSt, as we'll as other party
papers among its voters.

WESTERN RESERVE
CULTURE"
Drunken Republican Official in Ohio
Town Disturbs Prohibition
Speaker and Pleads Drunk
and Disorderly'

WARREN, OHIO, May 26-(Special cor
espondence) Last night this town,
which boasts itself of its high intel
ligence and morality and likes to be
regarded as the hub of the Western
Reserve, gave a fine exhibition of the
corruption engendered by the presence
of thirty-seven thousand-dollar-l license
saloons among eleven thousand people,
in spite of the high moral ideas" of
the Republican party which has domi-
mated the town for fifty years.
Last night the Rev. William Frost
Crispin of Akron addressed large
audience on the streets, having a good
hearing from the people, when some
drunken Republican officials attempted
to break up the meeting The attempt
was success, so far as making it i'm
possible for Mr.. Crispin to conclude
his speech as he originally intended,
although he did not cease to speak
until he had made very plain state
ment of facts to the disturbers and
won the sympathy of the better class
of people present.
The leading spirit Of the disturbance
was Republican justice of the peace,
known as c. c. Budd, who has held
the office of justice for more than
twenty years He was arrested and
pleaded guilty to being drunk and dis
orderly, but was allowed to escape
with an insignificant fine of ST and
costs. People here are not quite sure
whether the fine was meant to express
mild disapprobation of his conduct
or to set a precedent so that people
who wish to disturb a Prohibition meet
ing in the future may know that it
will not cost them much to do it.
