 And threaten me to strand; I fear not, for He holds them in The hollow of His hand. The fog at times obscures my path 1 see the way but dim; But well I know 1 cannot drift Beyond the sight of Him. 1 know not where the shoals may

 Nor where the whirlpools be; It IS enough, dear Lord, to feel That they are known to Thee. And thus, content, glide along, Ii either slow or fast, Believing He will bring He safe To the heavenly port at last.

LABOR men ARE
PLANNING TO GET
IN FALL CAMPAIGN

Cleveland, June THE executive
board of the Ohio Federation of Labor
met at the rooms Of the Ohio Trades
and Labor Council yesterday to make
plans for the political campaign next
fall. In line with the recent decision
to organize a labor party, the COM
mittee decided to canvass the local
political situation and recommend
certain men for office. 1t is the inten-
tion of the federation to use the in
fluence of the labor vote against can
didates who have disregarded the re-
quests of the labor organizations and
others who they consider as opposed
to the cause of the workers.
The resignation of William Cope,
first vice president Of the organiza-
ton, was received and the announce
ment made that Mr.. Cope had accept
ed a position as factory inspector, and
under the bylaws no longer could
serve on the board.
The report of ]. A. Robinson, of
Canton, the legislative agent was re-
ceived, showing that fourteen bills has
been passed by the Ohio legislature
last session at the instigation of the
labor unions.
Among these were the Reynolds
child labor bill, the employers liza
bility bill, containing te new principle
of comparative negligence; the Rey-
nolds bill providing for an assistant
chief inspector of workshops and
factories, whose duties it will be to
look after the school buildings in the
state, and five mining bills for the
protection of miners.
The report of the committee will
be compiled by Harry D. Thomas, Sec
retary-treasurer of the organization,
and made public later.

MAYOR WANTS A,
SWIMMING HOLE
FOR CANTON BOYS

Mayor Turnbull never forgets that
he was boy once and that it was not
many years ago. Saturday evening al
most fifty urchins, ranging in ages
from eight to fifteen years, were hud-
died into the court room, having
been invited there by Detectives Ryan
and Brisben and Lieutenant Wielandt
because they went in bathing in the
Nimishillen creek between South Mar
ket and Fairfield streets. These boys
have favorite swimming hole there,
which they term the Sucker" but
their bathing place is in plain view
of some of the residences along Barth
street. Complaint was made about
the matter and the youngsters were
brought in.
With remembrances of many
plunges that he had taken into the
creek when he was a boy his honor
informed the boys that more care
should be taken. He did not object
to small boys swimming at this
place, but said that they should be
hidden from the gaze of the public.
He promised them that he would pay
visit to the place Monday and if it
can be done he will have the place en-
closed by board fence in order to
make a swimming pool. These boys
left the city hall with cheers.
A few minutes later "a committee
consisting of four smaller boys called
on his honor and told him they were
too small to go into the big swimming
hole and they asked the mayor to pro-
vide them place also. He promised
to meet the smaller boys and accom-
modations may be made for them too

WHEAT HARVEST
In Ohio, 1t is Estimated, VIII Amount
to 33,ooo,ooo Bushels.

Columbus, June GA wheat crop Of
about 33,000,000 bushels will be har-
vested in Ohio next month. The state
board of agriculture in it's June crop
report, given out yesterday, estimates
the wheat prospects at "a per cent.
The report says:
This is a most excellent showing
and assures heavy average yield per
acre, although, as stated in previous
reports, the total area seeded is below
an average, which fact must be taken
into consideration in anticipating the
total yield of the harvest. The pros
pect over the state is quite uniform,
not county in the state reporting
less than 80 per cent, while last year
at this time there was wide variance
in percentage estimates, ranging from
Is per cent to 95 per cent. May /,
1907, the average wheat prospect for
the state as a whole was estimated
at II per cent, while for that harvest
there was produced an estimated aver.
age OF 1874 bushels per acre. Ely
comparison with the present report
1t is shown that wheat prospects in
Ohio are most encouraging.

Ian OF the engineers. You may re-
member in the early part OF 1862 how
severely General Mcclellan criticized
certain actions Of General Grant as
laid before him by General Halleck
and how unjustly and harshly Gen
eral Grant then and always considered
he had been treated in the matter and
how many people there were who won
dered at General McClellan's course.
81 for one, never doubted the rea-
son, for when the expedition above
mentioned was being fitted out, Grant
got on one of his little sprees which
annoyed and offended Mcclellan ex-
ceedingly and, in my opinion, he never
forgave Grant for it, Notwithstanding
this the transportation was soon in
readiness and the expedition left Van
couver.
at was in the year 1854 that Grant
resigned from the army. The resigna-
ton was brought about in this way:
His commanding officer was the major
of the regiment, Brevet Col. r. G.
Buchanan, a very good officer, but a
martinez and set on his way III
seems that one day while his COM
pany was being paid off General Grant
was at the pay table slightly under
the influence of liquor. This coming
to the knowledge of Col. Buchanan he
gave Grant the option of resigning or
having charges preferred against him.
Grant resigned at once"
Exception is taken to Secretary
Taft's statement that General Grant
resigned, because he had to, because,
in Mr. Church's opinion, It by no
means follows that, If Grants brother
officers had been called to sit in judg-
ment on him, they would have accept,
ed Col. Buchanan's view of his of,
fense, which is regarded as serious
only in proportion as it disqualifies a
man for holding a position Of corn
mand, which does not appear to have
been the case with Grant.

Tafts Story
JUST MADE PUBLIC

New York, June TN connection
with Secretary Tafts Memorial day
address at the tomb of Grant, which
started a wave of discussion all over
the country as to whether the general
was an Incorporate drinker and as to
the truth of the secretary's assertion
that Grant resigned from the army be-
cause he had to, is released a personal
letter written to VIM. Conant Church,
editor of the Army and Navy Journal
ten years ago, by an officer who was
fully conversant with General Grants
habits and aware of the exact reason
he retired from the army The letter
was printed Saturday in the Army and
Navy Journal.
The writer of the letter met Grant
first in 1852 when the future command,
er in chief was first lieutenant and
brevet captain in the Fourth Artillery
ordered from New York harbor to the
Pacific coast. He had ample opportu.
nifty TO observe the thin, quiet, reti.

feeling for those about him" and "his
close and strict attention to his du
ties" Captain Grants energy aud
! common sense were mighty service
able to the government in transferring
the command across the isthmus
Later at Vancouver Mr.. Church's cor
respondent was acquainted with
| Grants life.
"Of course" the letter says, "it was
well known that Grant dranF now and
then, but he was not, as has often
been charged, by any means a drunk
ard. He would perhaps go on two OF
three sprees a year, but was always
! open to reason and when spoken TO on
the subject would own up and promise
to stop drinking, which he did.
