Il am going 10 win; Judge Mann's in

for the Democratic gubernatorial nomi-
nation Mr.. Tucker was in washington
yesterday spending the day here on his
way TO Winchester, where ne will start
a campaign tour up the Valley OF Vir-
ginia.
Mr.. Tucker grows more confident every
day Of his nomination. He says the peo-
pie In the counties are rallying 10 his
standard on account OF The inconsistent
position taken by Judge Manns friends
in that the assertion has been made
that two antagonistic eiements-the pro-
hibIuonists and the whisky leaders-are

Governor Need Not Beg

When Governor IIalmon was an

OF Cincinnati to further urge tn
necessity Tor an investigation of Gin
.c,nnati he asserted the dignity on
his Office by telling them he would

to appear before any committee IN

In his message to the Legislature
Jan. 10, the renewal of the Cin3in-
nata investigation was the first sub
Ject discussed and the first recon-
mendation made. After recitine tb,,
principal details relating TO the two
Clncinnat Investigations that were
stopped by the courts, the governor
said in HIS message:

Montreal, Nov. z, 1908.
We found Peruna a relief In several
cases.
We can say II Is a good tonic and we
are very thankful.
Sisters of the Good Shepherd.
When catarrh once fastens itself upon
tho system it becomes an obstinate dis.
case TO eradicate.
A systemic rcmcdy-one that reaches
every internal organ of the body-is an
absolute necessity.
Pcruna is just such n remedy. II
searches out the cause of the disease,
healing and strengthening the mucous
membranes, and thus giving Nature an
opportunity to perform her part oe the
restorative process.
One of the many hospitals which have
found Peruna ofvaluc in treating old and
obstinate cases of catarrh is the Hospital
st. John, who writc, as follows:
"Wo are happy to tell you that your
Poruna has given us satisfaction. Three
patients have tried IL, one SO years old,
Rcnoui Dupuis, afflicted with catarrh. Is
much relieved, more than no has been
for n number of years.

vinced me that Peruna is magnificent

experiencing much fatigue. Now I can
walk mile easily.
Through these three cases we desire
to make known to the public the Of.
ficiency Of your remedy"
Hospital st. John, OF sc. Johns,
Province of Quebec.
A later letter received from the same
institution reads as follows;
"Three weeks ago wrote TO ten
you how satisfactory we found
Pcruna. We recOmn;endh II highly for
colds, coughs, cafarrh and neuralgia.
81 have used IL myself as tonic with
tho best results, taken as directed, half
a teaspoonful every half hour"
Mrs. Eta Booker, Dundurn, Sask,
n. w. T., Canada, writes:
"I suffered with pelvic catarrh until
/ wrote to DR.. Hartman, and after taxi
ing treatment as he advised, can say
am now cured of this most trying
afIliction, for which am truly thank
full. think Peruna the best medicine
for catarrh. 1 never felt better in my
life than do Vt present"
Pcruna not only promptly relieves
coughs and colds in their first stages,
but is equally prompt and efficient for
catarrhal diseases in the chronic stage.
OF course, IL is only reasonable to
suppose that great deal less medicine
will be necessary to cure q slight attack
Of catarrh than would be required 10
relieve the ailment after 1t had been al
lowed to become chronic.

TIME, IS THE TEST
The Testimyny of Marion
People Stands the Test.

The test OF time is what tells
the tale. The public soon finds out
when Misrepresentation are made,
and merit alone will stand the test
of time.
Marion people appreciate merit,
and many months ago loccl citizens
publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney
Pills; they do so stin. Would q
citizen make the statement which fol-
lows unless convinced that the ar
ticle was just as represented? A
cure that last is the kind that every
sufferer from kidney Ills is looking
for.
Mrs l.. J.. IIolverstott, formerly
OF 633 Perk Street, Marion, Ohio.
says; "Doan's Kidney Pills procured
at Flocken's drug store removed Il
lameness from my back and
strengthened my kidneys so that
no longer have any trouble Eon
these organs. The nervousness

bothered me so much Plso LETT me

preparation ever used brought me

The above statement was given
in October, 1899, and on June 20,
1904, Mrs Holverstott added the
following. ~ am glad to confirm

Handed Down by Harris

How easy it is for the Republican
newspapers to gar'ble facts, ana
how prone they are to do so--and to
do II often.
The Ohio State Journal, always
noted for its biased statements, has
this paragraph at the head OF an
article in its Wednesday edition:
Governor Harmon and the members
of the prison committees of the sem
ate and house have about reached
the inclusion that the convict labor
problem Is too big to be solved at
the short session, though this was
one of the main objects for which
Governor Harris called the extra ses-
sion"
The astounding part of this state
ment is that which attempts to make
1t appear that the solution of the
penitentiary problem was one OF
the main objects lor which Cover
no? Harris called the extra session. 4"
In his proclamation of Dee 10
ca,ling this extra session Governor
Harris gave no reason for 50 doing
further than that when assembled
the legislature would "receive a
message from the governor stating
to both houses the purposes for
which they nave been convened" "
When the legislature met the mes
sage OF Governor Harris set forth
that "the purposes or which you
have been called together are to
make the necessary appropriations
for the three quarters ending Nov.
10, 1903 and the quarter ending Feb.
10, 1910, for the selection of a Unit
ed States senator for the term be-
ginning March 4, 1909, and for such
other action as may be deemed
proper"
Stating further in the messag,
that he wCu'd leave the matter of
general recommendation to his sue
cessor Governor Harris made some
reference to state deposits, competi-
tive bidding. and state inspection,
but not one word did his message
contain with reference to the peni.
tentiary question as should have been
the case If II was ''one of the main
objects for which Governor Harris
called the extra session"
1t is true that at the same time
Governor Harris sent a special mes
sage to the Legislature the only pur-
pose OF which was, as stated in its
mist sentence, to transmit the repor,
or the legislative committee relative
to the penitentiary, and he recon-
mended that it be given "earlS
and favorable consideration; but in
no part of this special message did
Governor Harris state or even inti-
mate that this was one of the main
objects for which he called the
extra session.
AS claimed in his message explain
ing why he called the extra ses-
sion the two ''main objects" Of Gov,
ernor Harris was TO have an ap-

No Time for Whitewashing

There are several state institu-
tions where there seems to be need
right now of investigation by the
governor.
tA former inmate at the Athens
state hospital which has been hot
bed OF trouble ever since It started,
wants that Institution overhauled
Complaint is made OF the treatment
Of old soldiers at the SanduslSy home
by the commandant. The superin-
tendent OF the home at Madison for
widows OF soldiers wants an lnvestl-
CATION Of charges OF mlsmanagement
The penitentiary seems to need a
real probing before II Is reorganlzed.
There have been mutterlngs about
the state hospital at Massillon, and
there is no telling when nor where
the next explosion Will be. The
governor ought TO have the same
authority to inquire officially into
these matters that he has to exam
Inc the state auditors office and the
state treasury
Still the Republican bosses want
an Investigation" by a committee,
as proposed by Senator NIather's reso-
lutlon, instead Of having full author
!ty given the governor to inquire into
just such complaints.
What the Republican bosses want
Is whitewash. The AIather reso-
luton will give IT TO them, with
junketing trip thrown in for the
whitewashers.
The so-called TconstitutionaP res
olution by Senator Clevenger to in
estigate Cincinnati Is another white
washing scheme.
But the people will not long be
deceived by these subterfuges.

HOSPITALS ALL OVER THE CONTINE

HATARRH OF the respiratory organs
~ is a common ailment in Canada for
at least two-thirds of the year.
This condition is no doubt caused by
the long, severe winters experienced in
this part of the continent.
Therefore, when Peruna was discov-
cred by Canadian people to be a reliable
remedy for these catarrhal diseases, It
at once became n popular medicine, not
only among individuals and in families,
but in the great hospitals, whore It was
used as n preventative and relief in
hundreds Of cases.
These institutions do not hesitate 20
give their endorsement of the remedy
which has been so helpful in the treat
ment of their poor and sick.
Among these institutions is that of
the Sisters of Good Shepherd, who gave
the following endorsement;

ASTRONOMICAL EVENTS.
LOVE FOR EFFECT ONLY

To outward appearances, the thorn
in the side of the Republicans oil
Ohio has been removed and the place
has healed over. For years and years
there has been a factional fight on
hands. between Foraker and Sherman,
Foraker and Hanna, Foraker and Bur-
ion and Foraker and everybody else
Senator Dick. since he has come in
10 the limelight, has had rather
rocky road to travel, but no one mas
taken him very seriously and the
Sgure he has cut in state and Ma
tional politics has not been so very
large. Foraker and Dick have got
aen along together very nicely Tor the
,oat sew wears. simply because For
aker found that Dick could do MN
no harm and Dick saw that ms 0hlS
hone lay in holding onto Foraker
coat tails.
"a change came about. FORAKER
has been unhorsed and Theodore Bur
ton has been placed in the Sadule'
Senator Dick for time appeared 10
be very greatly incensed over the de-
feat of Foraker, but at banquet
which was given by the Ohio dele
cation in Washington this week ne
walked up and ate from the Ceie'e-
land congresman's hand. Ihe Two
senators have withdrawn their OBJ
iections to the confirmation OF some
Ohio postmasters, and the loving cup
has been passed around. AT the
a,anouet in washington, Senator DICK
10 the surprise of many, put IN MS
anmearance and when called upon for
some remarks, he still further eased
the minds of the banquetcrs by giving
voice to some sentiments concerning
Theodore Burton, which show that
he does not propose to attempt any
fght upon him. There is outwardly
no trouble between the Ohio leaders
and their following.
There Is a reason for this. IL lies
I'm the result of the last election In
the state. The Republican leaders
have discovered that within a very
few years, Ohio will be known as
Democratic state and they are maxi
ing great show at burying the
hatchet in the effort to convince the
people that there is harmony in the
camp and to try TO induce them to
return to their first love. The Deo-
ple Of Ohio have begun to get
wise" to the situation and their eyes
are being opened wider and wider
each day. The attitude, which the
Republican assembly has assumed to-
ward Governor Harmon in endeayor-
ing in every possible way TO tie his
hands and prevent him having a
look into the conditions in the va
rious state institutions; their deter
animation TO prevent him probing Gin
cinnati and other large cities where

tor elected, the such "other action
as may be deemed proper was the
confiration OF the Harris lap-ovei
appointees, which proved to be the
main object of the extra session.
After this high handel political
outrage was perpeirated and Mr..
Burton was elected senator, the Re-
publican leaders in the legislature
attempted to force an adjournment
within four days after the recess,
with the understanding that no 9TH
er action was to be taken except
to pass the appropriation bill They
had no intention whatever to do
anything with the penrentiary prob
lem, and Governor Harmon had to
compel them to take cognizange of
IL.
The present situation at the peni-
tentiary is a result of the general
incompetency OF the Harris admin
istration which was given up chief
ly to the Vaccinations of petty po.d-
tics
Governor Harris made no attempt
to meet the oncoming conditions at
the penitentary, which could easily
be foreseen, as the Wertz law was
passed three years ago. He let It
80 by default and it became one of
the inheritance Governor Harmon re-
ceived from the Harliis administra-
tion along with the lap-ovea appoint
ments.
No matter how Republican papers
may garble the facts they cannot
exonerate Governor Harris for his
failure to meet the penitentiary
question, any more than they can
eXonerate Governor Harris for his
petty partisanship in fastening a
lot OF political barnaoles upon the
administration of Governor Harmon.
