Cox Is Mad.

According to reports more or
less authentic the telephone wires
connecting Columbus and Cincin-
natl were kept sizzling hot the
past week, with Boss Cox at the
Cincinnati end doing the talking
and leading Republican politicians
at the Columbus end doing the
listening. What the big boss had
to say was plenty and it was
anything other than music to the
ears of those forced to Ii stem.
Cox has grievance says he has
been betrayed. The story is not a
nice one, but is we'll worth repeat
ing if for no other reason than to
some of the methods pursued by
the Taft managers to capture the
Republican state organization and
through it the Ohio delegation to
national convention. 1t fully ex-
plains the mysterious CoX-Taft
alliance, which up to this time has
proved a puzzle to even the
shrewdest and best informed
politicians. Those in a position
to know, claim that early in the
factional contest Cox entered
into an agreement with Charles
p. Taft and Manager Voryssunder
the terms of which lie was to sup
port the Taft cause and in return
they were to trottle any Legislation
providing for the further investi-
cation of Cincinnati and Hamil-
ton county. Cox has up to this
time faithfully lived up to the
terms of the contract, but the
Others, notwithstanding earnest
efforts to do so, have been unable
to deliver the goods. This agree
ment explains the reprehensible
attitude of those Republicans who
in the lower branch of the legisla-
ture attempted to strangle the
investigation by weighing the
resolution down with amendments
which would have made it harm
less. There is no doubt that
Charles p. Taft and Manager
Vorys attempted to make good,
but this does not satisfy Boss Cox,
who claims the guaranty of i'm
muniuy should not have been made
by them unless they were in posi-
ton to fulfill all promises made.

strong enough to force the meas ,
ure through. Following the +
adoption of the resolution Cox +

COLUMBUS-The supreme
court handed down decision in
the case of Robert jackson against
the city of NelsonvilIe. The case
involved the right of municipali-
ties to sell electricity to private
concerns. The decision denies
that right.
The decision reverses all lower
courts on the grounds that at the
time of the enlargement of the
plant, the statute contained no
authority for selling electricity to
citizens. The plant was not en-
larged until after the passage of
the municipal code which repealed
the statute giving the authority
to a municipal plant to sell cleo
tricity. A bill is now pending in
the Legislature to correct the de-
feet in the law.

COLUMBUS-According

COLUMBUS-According tc
the January settlement for Dow
tax collections made with the
auditor of state, just made public
by the auditor, there were O419
saloons doing business in Ohio as
compared with 9533 at the settle
ment one year ago.
The total amount of taxes paid
under the law at this payment, is
"a, 800, $50 Al, as compared with
"a, $50, 401, one year ago.
The explanation of the fact that
with fewer number of saloons
the revenue is larger now than it
was one year ago is said to be that
during 1907 there were more sa-
looms that began business early in
the taxation period and ran
through the whole of the rest of
the period, than was the case in
1906.
There were but three counties
reporting no saloons. They are
Morgan, Highland and Harrison.
Juyahoga county leads with 2,O78,
IN increase of l02 and Hamilton
stands second with 1856, a gain of
10 since January, 1907. Frank
in has 532, loss of 30.
On the whole, the report shows
hat the operation of the Akin
mendment to the Dow tax, is
making more saloons in the coun-
les having the larger cities, and
ever in the rural counties.

Failure and Success.

Genius, that dazzles mortal eyes,
Is oft but perseverance in disguise;
Continuous effort in itself, implies, in spite
OF countless falls, the power to rise.
Twxt failure and success, the point fne
Men sometimes know not when they touch the line.
AS the tide goes clear out, it again clear in

And oh, how often when shades of doubt dsmay
With little more persistence, courage vim,
Success will dawn FER fortunes cloudy rim.
Then take this honey from the bitterest cup
There is failure save in giving up;
No real falls, so long one still tries,
For seeming setbacks make the strong wise.
There is defeat, in truth, saye from within,
Unless you beaten there, your re to win.

CLEVELAND - The four

The building destroyed con-
tanned the composing room, with

NEW YORK-The two Thaw
trials have cost Mrs. Thaw to date
Approximately $1,000,0O0; the
greatest sum ever spent in the
criminnl courts of New York in a

The burden of the cost has fall
len on the prisoners family, who
expended more than 100000 at
the first hearing and 1915, 900 in
the great legal battle just draw
ing to close.
Thaw's lawyers alone will re-
ceive $325,O 900. OF this sum Mar
tin w Littleton receives a fee of
5000, 900; A. Russell Peabody,
1915, ,9oo, and Daniel O'Reilly $780,
900. Forty-tive witnesses will re-
ceive $40, 200 for loss of time;
three alienists are to get 80, 600 for
thirty days attendance at the ses-
slons, while witnesses who have
been brought from Europe and
