money to pay for the statue now in

who had made large fortunes out or

Test for Burton

"A report comes from Washington
to the effect that the soon-tO be Sena-
tor Burton has not authorized Hem
ry a. Williams and w. II. Phipps
to act as his messengers an carrying
instruction to Republican members
OF the Ohio legislature.
1t is claimed that at first the re-
ports that Williams and Phipps were
to be his high commissioners amused
Mr.. Burton. But when ne began TO
receive letters from members of the
legislature asking II the reports were
true it became embarrassing TO the
extent that he grew angry and used
emphatic language to express his feel
ings.
If all this be true acts will speak
louder than any emphatic words Mr.
Burton may utter
Up to this time Burton senators
have not hesitated to unite with 9TH
er Republican senator's in acts spe-
officially designed to hamper and en-
barass Governor Harmon's admins
tration.
This is particularly true of the
united acMon Of Republican senator's
when one Of the senates standing
rules was revoked so that the Har-
ris lap-oyer appointments might be
confirmed as the first act Of this ex-
traordinary Session. II is true also
OF the refusal TO reconsider the con.
OF such appointments, and
the refusal TO confirm the appoint
ment OF John c. Sullivan to be a
member OF the state railroad com
mission in lieu Of the illegal reap-
pointment of j c. Morris by Cover
nor Harris.
On all matters relating to the Har-
MS appointments the Burton sena-
tors stood shoulder to shoulder with
The Cox senators.
II Mr.. Burton would refute the re-
ports that have been current during
NE past two weeks It must be done
WIN something more emphatic than
words 1t must appear In the acts
d those members of the Legislature
VINO are willing to be governed by
MS wishes.
Ihe attitude that will be taken dur
ng the remainder OF this session ON
III matters of partisan hostility to
Governor Harmons administration Is
ne real test which Mr., Burton and
lis followers in the legislature will
'e judged by hereafter.

No one seriously questions the abll-
ity oi Senator Aldrich to sit on the
lid and held it down. He says he
can do It, for one thing, and Aldrlch
never speaks until he knows. The
young insurgents of the senate are
such because they advocate the radi-
cal policies of President Roosevelt or
because they want TO upset the griz-
zled seniors to make places for
themselves. 1t should be kept in
mind that there Is no essential rela-
ton In the Roosevelt teaching be-
tween regulating railroad and the
tarin on steel rails. The present
president has never shown great en-
thuaism for tariff revision, and he,
with Taft and every other prominent
Republican, has often denounced Mr..
Bryan FOR urging the lowering of
dulles as a means of Furnishing
trusts. The insurgent Republican
senators will continue to insurge, but

CRIMES OF

two Persons are Killed and
Two Badly Injured Be-

Taken.

Saelbourne, Ont. Feb. S.-Two
persons dead and three so seriously
injured that they may MOI recover,
is the result of murderous attacks
made Sunday by George stewart,
young farmer OF Maple Valleys
Stewart who is mentally unbal-
anced, was staying with his brother
at Reddicloville, and started out In
the carly morning with a rife. HIS
bro.her attempted to restrain him
and was attacked and beaten but not
seriously injured. Stewart then
went to the near by home of John
Spanhouse and nred upon Mrs.
Spanhouse twice, wounding her in the
eye and arm.
Her husband rushed to her assist
ance and was shot dead. A son,
James, who was sleeping upstairs,
ran down at the sound Of the shots
and Stewart whose rife was empty
beat out his brains with the butt Of
the weapon.
Stewart then Started for his own
home, but stopped on the way at the
house OF Edwin Pounds, who at the
time was absent. Here he attacked
the hired man, George Beaumont, and
the housekeeper, Mrs. Gowans, with
the empty weapon, beating them both
unconscious and fracturing the hired
mans skull. He then fed to his
fathers home at Maple Valley, where
he was arrested in the afternoon and
lodged in the Jail here.

Opposition to the proposal to give
Governor Harmon--rnd all governors
who succeed him-the authority to
scrutinize al state offices and de-

governor to examine two state of

pOsal to make such power effective.
