Why He Did 1t.

Governor Harmon's statement
as to why he stopped the paw of
members of the state board of
public works until they can show
that they are entitled to the Juicy
plums they have been picking lays
the whole matter before the peo-
pie of OHIO clearly and compro-
hensively in few words. Follow
ing is the governors statement in
full:
81 think l ought to state just
what have done about payments
claimed for the members of the
board of public works, and why /
did it.
"Untll 1901 each of them re-
ceiveG salary of $500 per year
and actual expenses not to exceed
5000. They were then made 'su-
pervisors, too, at $500 per year,
on the express condition that they
should devote all their time to the
canals and public works OF the
state. Appropriation and other
laws have also dealt with the mat
ter from time to time. They are
now drawing the sum OF this three
amounts, or $4,000, and about 5000
for expenses beside, or $500.
each.
81 do not believe the general
assembly ever intended to raise
the regular salaries Of these olli-
GERS at time when the receipts
from the canals had become mere
trickle, to pay them each $500
a year besides their salaries for
extra work, which they were not
required to do and never did; nor
to pay them 5000 per year each to
cover their expenses and then pay
their actual expenses too. Yet
this is exactly what is now claimed
to be the effect of the confused
state of legislation on the subject,
and they have been drawing pay
accordingly.
"When / discovered this
thought it my duty to advise the
treasurer, who takes The same
view as myself, not to pay the
vouchers recently presented.

Miss HOpley In London.
lColumbus Dispatch.l


A recent Issue of the London
Daily Mail contains an interesting
article on the American Woman &
Exchanges, written by the Miss
Georgia Hopley, of Bucyrus, a
former Columbus newspaper wom-

ems clubs of this country will ap-
pear in the same paper.
Miss Hopley has been abroad
since the early summer and at
present is at 5 Cambridge Terrace,
Kew Surrey, England, not far
from London. She was one of the
speakers at the national meeting
of the Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union, in London, during the
summer, and extended greetings
in behalf of the W. G. Il. u. of
the United States,
Miss Hopley was asked to speak
by Agnes slaeh, vice president of

progress of the temperance move.

pean title. In the little Scottish
town where the final step in the
purchase was effected were hung
such inscriptions as "God Bless
the Prince and Beautiful Bride, u
"Long Life and Happiness to the
Prince and Princess.
Taking some similar events of
the past criterion, these sug.
gestions ring terribly hollow.
Long life, perhaps, but happiness
Would that simple inscription
hung to view could assure the
kind of happiness that every
American girl, rich or poor, ought
to enjoy. But to ask Gods bless
ing on a union Of American dollars
to a continental ooronet smacks too
much of blasphemy.
1t would be much pleasanter if
one could honestly rejoice over the
verdant prospects of bride and
groom. But the list of those
young women of America who
have sought happiness in wedlock
with foreign title and found it a
barren, ioyless, terrifying expert
ence is SO lengthy that one is bow
ed with sense of helplessness and
regret whenever it is repeated.
Too many of the innocents al
ready have been "butchered to
make a Roman holiday" for de.
generate roues of Europe who
have fallen heir to an empty title.
Too often these unions are inspired
only by commercial spirit. Moth
ing in connection with them sug-
gests the true basis for ma atrimony.
1t is simply matter of barter and
exchange, in which the American
dollars almost invariably get the
worst of the deal. Whate yer of
proper sentiment rests with the
purchaser is dissipated as soon as
the title has dissipated in riotous
living most of the millions that
accompany the bride to the altar.

True AS Gospel.

The editor Of the Stanley, N. D.,
Sun has evidently been up agin' it.
Listen to gospel truth contained in a
recent issue Of the Sun:
The editor Of a newspaper is often
accused Of leaving out certain items
Of news purposely, because of q dis
like Of the person to be mentioned, or
from prejudice or another cause.
This is all bosh. The editor has
something like a million different
things to think of in connection with
the issue Of one paper and it is not
surprising if he misses an item oc-
casionally or sometimes forgets one
which has been called to bis atten-
tion. Nine out Of ten people you
ask for news items will tell you they
can't think Of any. But in most
cases they expect the editor to think
Of them all and criticise him If he
fails in a single item. The best wsy
is to give the editor credit for what
he does find and mention and for
some things that he finds and doesn't
mention

GIRL MISSING ELEVEN

surance company. The two women
met today for the first time since
Oct. IL, 1898, when Miss Burns dis.
appeared on her way to school. She
was only s years old then, but Mrs.
Bosse declared herself satisfied as to
the identity Of the young woman. II
had always been supposed by Mrs.
Bosse and the police that Nellie had
been kidnaped. Her story disproved
this:
| was on my way to school with )
girl about my own age said Miss
Burns, when two men, my father
and my uncle, seized me and despite
&&E = .
my kicking and screams, placed ne
IN a buggy and drove to 4 house on
Dayton Street. Father fold me that
this was to be my home and that |
would never see Mother Bosse again.
! arieVed over the change for i time,
then like most children forgot my
troubles. A few years later we
moved across the river TO East St.
Louis, and when / became older, I
went to work in q department store"
The girls father is Daniel Burns,
an engineer. He and his wife were
living apart when the latter died, di-
recting that Nellie be given into the
care Of Mrs. Bose.
Both Mrs. Burns and Mrs. Bossee
had taken out insurance policies on
she girls life. These matured in 1905,
but Mrs. Bossee waited until a few
weeks ago before bringing suits to
recover on her policy in a justice
court. She won the case, and the
company appealed. Accounts Of the
case appeared in the newspapers and
therefore an aunt Of Miss Burns no
tilted the attorneys for the company
that her niece was alive.
