HEADS TICKET
Renominated for Governor
by Ohio Democrats.
ENDORSED FOR PRESIDENT

Convention Presents His Name to
Country for the Office of Chief Ex-
ecutive in 1912--Bryan's Suggestion
for Endorsing Senatorial Candidate
Showed Under by Overwhelming
Vote.
Dayton, Ohio, June Ex-Governor
Judson Harmon was unanimously re-
nominated by the Ohio state Demo-
ratic convention and the plan for en-
dorsing candidate for United States
senator, favored by Bryan and Tom l..
Johnson, was simply showed under by
vote of 80 to 254. Throughout the
convention it was apparent that Har-
mon was in absolute control and the
platform was practically dictated by
him.
In addition to being renominated as
governor Harmon was endorsed for
the party's nomination for the presi-
dency in 1912, resolution reading as
follows being adopted:

tion to Judson Harmon and the work

In his speech accepting the nomina-
tion, Governor Harmon spoke in part
as follows:

'The voters of the country have
often been imposed on by the tarlH

nue., but really for private profit. But
they were never before fooled by a
promise of substantial reductions OF

RAINIER FlRE-SURR0UNDED
Already 500 Miles of Forest Have Been
Burned Over, and Relief Trains
Are Being Hurried Into the
Devastated Region,

Warroad, MINI, Oct. ll.-A message
to the Minnesota International railroad
says that 300 bodies must be cared for
at Rainy River, as the result of the
forest fires raging there for the past
four days Conditions are still threaten
ing and Rainier village, near the Inter-
national falls, is surrounded by the
flames.
The governor has been urged to help,
and relief trains are pouring into this
section, loaded with supplies. Five hun
dred miles Of the forest have been de-
stroyed, while the number of dead it is
impossible to estimate. The burned DIS
trict is under martial law, and those
caught looting or robbing the dead will
be summarily dealt with.
Beaudette, Mimi, Oct ll.--Forest fire
detectives here say that hundreds of
homesteaders near Spooner were de-
stroyed by the forest fire. Although it is
four days since the fire started, only a
few of those have been accounted for.
Charred bodies, discovered along the
tracks of the Canadian Northern rail-
road lead to the belief that they per-
ished. The bodies of fourteen, two fam
flies, have been brought here, and sur
vivor from Rapid River says he counted
10 bodies along the tracks within TWEEN

CONCERNING TAG DAY.
What Hospital Aid Has Accomplished
and Purposes to Do.

II seems best that before our annual
tag day, on Saturday next, the members
OF the hospital aid, who are unable to
attend the meetings and the public in
general, should be informed regarding
the expenditure Of money which IS con-
tributed on these special days
From the returns Of tag day last year,
we feel that much has been accomplished
Our first check drawn was $500, to sup
port the free bed, which mas been in con
stant use during the year II was next
voted to repair. the hospital as the COM
mittee should deem best and accordingly,
the paper has ben removed from the cell
ihgs and walls, the ceilings have been
whitened, the walls calcimined III quiet
restful tints, woodwork put into white
enamel, floors, radiators and beds done
over. new chiifoniers and large rockers
added where needed Work is now com
menced on the main halls, which. when
finished. will complete the entire main
building.
The committee have every reason to
feel proud Of our little hospital, which
stands second to none as far as pleas
ant rooms, care and treatment are con-
etrned. In the work so nearly complet
ed, the committee have had the royal
support Of the matren and nurses
in every possible way, making the work
seem pleasure rather than duty.
Friends have not been lacking in interest
and many a wish has been fulfilled,
either by gifts of various articles, money,
or by extending helping hand.
With the proceeds Of this years tag
day. we hope to continue the support
of the free bed and the work of repairing
in the ell part. The constant wearing
out Of the bed linen needs our attention,
and so in many ways, we strive to help
what Barre certainly needs.
hospital. No public hospital is ever self
supporting, so we must do, as is true in
other places, what We feel IS our duty or
pleasure
Meet the young ladies, who nave Civ
eh their services for Saturday. cheer
fully, and they will receive your five
cents or Eve dollars, as the case may be,
with equal pleasure.

Hotel Business In Vermont.

Despite the fact that Rutland is on
the side track as far as the great bulk
Of the foreign automobile travel is con-
cerned, it is stated that one hotel in that
city has entertained thus far this sea-
son over 500 parties of automobiles.
These parties, it is understood, have not
been here in every case for day or
longer, but have stopped here long
eonugh for at least meal or lodging.
It the average value of an automobile
party, as figured by the standard at
the Equinox at Manchester is correct,
$50 a day, the automobile tourist bus
