ASKS CITY TO BUY
FROM ALL BIDDERS
PRICES OF MIXERS RANGE $500
APART
Charter Specifies Contract BE Awarded
to Lowest Applicant, Which Places
Obstacle In Way Of Follow
Ing Suggestion

The board OF public works has asked
the city attorney to rule on a peculiar
recommendation for purchasing con-
crete mixers made by Chief Engineer
Mulholland.
The board advertised for four con-
crete mixers, two of ten yards capacity
and two of twenty yards. Four bid
ders submitted proposals, the prices for
the ten-yard mixers ranging from 5000
to $1100, and OF the twenty@yard, about
so per cent more.
The bids were referred to Mu1holiand
and he recommended the city purchase
one each of the ten-yard mixers from
each of the bidders. His reason is
that the city, in building the aqueduct.
will use a large number of these ma
chimes and he wants to try them all.
The charter specifies contract must
be let to the lowest responsible bidder
and the board sees legal obstacle in
the way of following the recommended
ton.

JUDSoN HARMON, THE DEMO-
CRATIC NOMINEE.

Judson Harmon, or Judge Harmon,
as he is better known by his coun-
trymen, is the Democratic nominee
for governor of Ohio. The victor is
q man of rare executive ability and
an attorney who has few peers in
the United States. When Judge Har-
mon was appointed attorney general
BY President Cleveland, Judge Will
liam H. Taft, who will no doubt be
the Republican candidate for presi-
lent, was toastmasteT at a banquet
rendered Judge Harmon in Cincinnati
by the Hamilton County Bar asso-
citation. At this banquet, Judge Taft
paid to Judge Harmon the following
tribute: I'VE are here because we
know that he is eminently qualified to
discharge the duties of his Office with
Nnbounded credit to his country, the
administration, to us, his friends, and
TO himself. When the head of the
supreme court asks Harmon what
business is there before this court"
%e know that there will respond a
man whose broad and liberal mind,
splendid intellect and igoTOus grasp
of legal principles will represent the
best of all that has been handed
down to US by the traditions of the bar.
Born and brought up in this commun-
Ity, taught by his parents that eye:y-
thing in this country was in the
reach Of the man who would honestly
strive after it, Of vigorous mind and
body, even tempered, good digestion,
the softest and stoutest heart. Jud-
Son Harmon has moved onward and
upward with no man to grudge him
single honor which he has won"
Judge Harmon was born in Hamil-
ton county, seven miles from Cincin-
natl, on February 3, 1916. He was
given his early education by his faith
er, who had been a school teacher and
had become a Baptist minister. He
was graduated from Dennison college
at Granville. Ohio, in 1866. In 1892
the college honored him with the de-
gree of LII. d. After he left college
Judge Harmon entered the old Gin
cinnati Law school and was graduated
from it in 1869. In 1876 he was
elected judge of the common pleas
court of Hamilton county but a few
months after taking his place on the
bench was unseated by contest of

CITIES CAN CHANGE NAMES.

Over at East Liverpool, Ohio's great
pottery town, they are talking about
cutting off the appellative borrowed
from the compass and standing forth
hereafter as Liverpool, o.
A bill championed by Representa-.
tive Hill, who halls from that city,
was passed by the legislature which
will enable the city to change its
name, in the manner that villages
change their names. The modus ope.
randi is very simple, and consists CT
a hearing in common pleas court
after due notice, on petition of at least
10 citizens, setting forth the reasons
for the desired change and the name
preferred, which is determined by the
court.
East Liverpool expects to raise its
civic dignity, and gain the advantage
of breyity by returning to the original
name of almost a century ago. Out
siders will coincide in that opinion,
and the pottery city will do something
popular abroad, as well as at home
by dropping the east" and becoming
the full fedged Liverpool of the Buck
eye state.
Under the new law any city may
change its name in the same way
Heretofore only villages could so SC
by an order of court. When this fact
becomes known doubtless other cities
will take advantage of the law. New
M
has discussed the question for years
and the people of Washington c. II
have been wondering how they could
drop the posterior initials, which stand
for Courthouse" without doing VIC
lence to civic pride and the statutes
in such cases made and provided.
1t will be easy enough to do it now by
simply going to the courthouse with
proper ts.-EXchange.

TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES
Will Arrange for Burial Lot in West
lawn for Pauper or Uniden-

According to John R. Matthews, one
of the members of the board of trus-
tees of Canton township, that organ

burial place in Westlawn cemetery for
bodies of unidentified Dead such as
that OF the colored man who was kill
ed, on the Pennsylvania lines Mon
day.
He says that the township trustees
are empowered by law to maintain a
burial place. but he believes that it
would be much cheaper to secure a
single burial lot in Westlawn ceme-
terry, which includes the digging of
the grave, rather than hey and main.
tain burial place of their own. Only
few cases like this one occur dur
ing a year, it is stated. The re-
mains of the colored man lying in the
Miller & Blanchard morgue still re-
main there without identification and
the body will be buried Thursday
morning.

The result of the Democratic nom
ination for governor verifies in every
respect the reports Of the situation
in the state as heretofore given in
the Morning News. There was never
q time that Mr.. POmerene ever had
a chance for the nomination. His
candidacy was but an effort on the
part of Mayor johnson to kill off Mr.
Welty, in which he was successful. 1t
is known that Harmon preferred that
Welty be selected and would not
have been a candidate if Welty had
remained in the race. The News
predicted what has occurred, for the
reason that it published the facts of
the situation and let time demon
atrate the truth of the statements.

THE HON. ATLEE PoMERENE.

The defeat of Hon Atlee Pomerene
of Canton for the Democratic nomina-
ton for governor of Ohio is no doubt
a disappointment to most Democrats
in Stark county. Mr.. Pomerene, aided
bv the powerful backing of Mayor
johnson of Cleveland, put up gal
liant fight and considering that this
was his first venture IN state politics,
Mr.. Pomerene no doubt has just cause
to feel proud of the vote he received
from the delegates in the convention,
being a young man, Mr.. Pomerene no
doubt will be heard from later on.
