JUST A SAMPLE

Some OF the men who were so
greatly alarmed, last fall, lest the
election Of Judson Harmon to the
governorship would mean that Ohio
was to witness reign of lawlcssness,
will be forced to change their song
now that the governor has served
notice upon Mayor Bond, of Column
bus, and upon the mayors of all 9TH
er cities together with all officials
connected with the executive part Of
the government, that he will not for
moment tolerate prize fighting. lie
states that he will put an end to it,
even though it become necessary to
call out the militia
This is the first time that the gov
ernOr has taken action which looks
TO the better enforcement OF the laws
of the state, and it may be taken as
an indication of the position he will
assume ON the question OF law obesrv-
ance in all particulars. Governor
Harris posed as a great temperance
man and as an advocate Of law en-
forcement, yet he attended the race
meets at the Columbus driving park
and witnessed the selling of pools
without Offering objection, and the
law against the selling OF pools is
just as rigid as that against prize
fighting. The friesds OF Harris were
fearful lest Harmon would fail to en-
force the laws and right here is one
which he proposes to enforce; one
which Harris overlooked, for Column
bus has been having prize fights for
several months.
Those enemies OF Governor Harmon
because they were fearful he would
not stand for the enforcement Of the
law will have to change their posi-
ton If their desire to appear con-
sistent

err proceedings are pending in tie
supreme court has fled a demand
on the state board of agriculture for
licenses to sell hGty'nye brands Of
FERTILIZER in Ohio. Through Presi-
dent r.. j. Smith the company pro-
poses TO submit samples for chem
,cal analysis and demands immediate
action on the partHof the board.
Secretary Sand!es at once filed the
letter with Attorney General Denman,
who is devoting his entire attention
to the investigation Of alleged fer
tilizer SSindles at the C7der of Gov.
Harmon. Secretary Sandle5 an
nounced that the action OF the Smith
company was Interpreted as an at
tempt to thwart the investigation
now well under way and to prevent
the taking OF any further testimony!
From the attorney generals de-

fertilizer sold on the Ohio market.
TO very large extent these samples
were secured without the knowledge
of fertilizer concerns.
From an authoritative source 1t Is
learned that the attorney general Is
ready 10 offer startling testimony be-
fore Attorney Albery, named by the
court yesterday as special commits
sioner to hear testimony in the GUST
er proceedings. Nothing can head of
the taking Of this testimony, 1t is
announced
Not in years have Chic agricultur-
alists been aroused as over the
fertilizer scandal. Members AMI Of
Gcers of the state board of agr' 'cr'-
ture have been under a cloud. Now
they are loudly rejoicing over tho
opportunity to tell Their side of the
story I'm sworn testimony. There are
intimatlons that the reasons why the
investigation has been hampered at
every turn will he given to the
public at last Developments are
promised that will fairly shake the
state at least all Ohio citizens WHO
are directly interested IN agriculture
and farming
Scme time ago when the state
board Of agriculture attempted to
publish the results or a series OF
secret experiments with fertilizer the
manufacturing concerns secured an
injunction in the Franklin county
courts. The court decision was to the
effect that the board had no authority
to act i'm the premises as Il was not
puI5lic body but in effect a private
institution The general assembly at
once took action legalzIns the board.
The attorney general, then Wade H.
Ellis, was requested to bring quo war
ranto proceedings against the Smith
company. The matter dragged along
for months. The board members
insist they could get 10 satisfactory
explanation for the delay.
Gov. Harmon got busy on the prop
osition few days after his inaugu-
ration. Matters have been moving
fast since that time. In its letter
to the board the Smith ccnipany in.
Inmates that its chier trouble was
caused by II M. Brown, former
president and Thomas Calvert for
mer secretary, both oil whom were
deposed with the reorganization OF
the board last week Both Brown
and Calvert will assist the reorgan-

frauds.

OPINION DIVIDED.

s. G. Adams a farmer belonging to
the Farmers Association, in speech
at Danville, Va, last week praised
the American Tobacco Company de-
manding the elimination OF the mid
die man and urging farmers to sell
their tobacco direct to the American
Tobacco Company. The American is
being encouraged and praised by Vir-
ginia farmers and lambast ed by some
North Carolina newspapers.
Better bear awhile longer the ills
we have rather than fly to others.
Supply and demand at last are the
great arbitors of values, and we
should counsel the kindest feelings
between seller and buyer at all times.
Those who would deliberately array
one against the other is not friend

terest OF the State Let's all pull to-
gether, it would be to the mutual in
terest OF both sellers and buyers.

continues to keep in the limelight.
Not long ago he attracted attention
to himself by his gross misrepresen-

his own State, a Islander which he at
tempted to repudiate afterward when
his words were resented by the press
at home, and now the discovery is
made that New York and Chicago are
modern Sodom and Gormorrahs that
stand in jeopardy of visitation of
the wrath of the Almighty and being
destroyed without remedy. There

KENTUCKY TOBACCO WAR -

Independent manufacturers have
filed suit against the Burley Tobacco
Society, claiming heavy damages,
$780, $50, on the ground that they
were overcharged on tobacco they
were obliged to buy from the said
Burley Tobacco Society. An Associ-
ated Press dispatch says:
"The suit is filed under the Sher-
man anti-tru law, and the Burley
Society is charged with being a mo-
nOpoly in restraint of trade.
Nineteen Kentucky tobacco grow
ers and two Ohio growers are named
as party defendants. The Burley
Society is charged with entering into
a conspiracy with these growers to
control the white hurley tobacco
market in the United States"

trust is not interested "Sick 'em,

A NORTH CAROLINA AIRSHIP.

A North Carolina man has come to
the front now as the inventor OF an
airship. The Wilmington Star says
thata resident OF it's city has invented
a flying machine which it declares
will fly. The Star man has seen it fly,
or rather the model, as the inventor
has not yet built machine large
enough to carry q man. According
to the Star this machine has the
characteristic which Edison said
would have to be adopted before
aerial navigation could be made sue
cessful-that OF going straight up
into the air before beginning a for
ward movement. No wheels, runways
or other starting devices are needed.
The inventor, who is an old citizen OF
Wilmington, has faith in his machine
and believes he has discovered and
brought intop play the right principle.

With an independent tobacco COM
