cnnpl IAlENTS T0 THR STAR


Now that the election is past,
THE TRANSCRIPT has leisure for
a little heart to heart talk with
The Star, which two weeks ago
in sheer wsntonness unwisely
yentured O lame ding about
THE TRANTcRIPT's publication
of theflicense list. To show the
entire falsity of The Stars charge,
we will quote the law to prove
that we have absolutely complied
with both it's spirit and its letter !!
Chapter 9, Section 8, Laws OF
Delaware, says the Clerk Of the
Peace "shall annually on.the first
Monday in October publish in two
newspapers Of the county for two
weeks, q list of all licenses issued
by him, ETC." Under the loose
methods common to the Old
Democratic regime, the custom
had been for the weekly papers
TO publish this list on their var.
ious days of publication other
than on Monday as required by
law. By advice of counsel We
published the list on the first
Monday in October. The Law
does not specify daily or a week
ly paper-only that the publica'
tion shall be on the first Monday
etc. Moreover it is very proper
that one of the papers so publish
ing should be at this end OF the
county.
But even If THE TRANSCRIPTS
lawful publication had had Eet been
so in fact, The Star, dwelling a.
it does in a fragile tenement ol
glass, should have been the las
to throw any rocks.
Some years ago the Clerk o.
the Peace as required by law, or
dered two papers to publish tht
'tnomination to Office. " Thereupor
The Star, after vainly seeking t.
coax him to saddle the county witt
the needless cost of a third pub
lication in its columns, voluntar
fly republished the lists, and pre-
sented a bill for $500. TIL
TRANSCRIPT wishes right here t
give that Clerk of the Peace vel
deserved praise for reducing thi'
cost Of $500 per newspaper t
$500. This big saving to tn
county continues to this day, t
his everlasting credit.
After a fruitless e1Urt to ge
them to cough up this pleasing
gratuity Of $500, and after ais,
failing to get the legislature t
recognize the illegal claim 2h
Star abandoned it; and moreover
Eelll Eellll knowing its claim had n
merit, wisely refrained from in
voking the courts aid for it
collection.
Four members of the Lev,
Court-the fifth, Chairman Scot
protesting - had pretended t
authorize The Stars republication
But even if their illegal act coul
have given The Star any right, IL
failure to publish the second nc
tice 10 days before the election
as required by the law, mad
such publication illegal even
otherwise according to Law
a bare majority of the Levy Cour
unlawfully issued a warrant t
The Star, but the Comptroller re
fused to sign it though muc
persuaded to do so.
THE TRANSCRIPT is sorry t
toss a -brickbat through it
neighbor's glass house in thi
rude fashion; but the next tim
The Star starts to chunk US itha
best move into safer quarters.

CHOOSES GIFTS, NOT DRINK
Village of Hudson Goes "Dry" by Big
Majority When Improvements
Hang in Balance.

Hudson, O.-The voters of the
little village of Hudson, former
home of Western Reserve university,
reaffirmed their verdict of two years
ago in the local option election just
held, when, by vote of 1862 to 81,
they decided to continue as temper
ance community for two more years.
The result of the election assures to
the town the improvements promised
by ]. T. Ellsworth, multimillionaire
coal operator.
The issue between the two factions
in the village was not a battle be-
tween the prohibition forces and those
favoring the existence of saloons in
the village, but was instead, it is as
serted by those familiar with the facts,
a fight for or against the model town
as proposed by Mr.. Ellsworth, who a
few years ago offered to give the vii
lage waterworks and sewage system
and an electric light plant.
Although devoid of features that
often characterize this kind of fight,
the battle between the dry" or Ellis
worth forces, and the wet" or anti
Ellsworth forces, did not lack siren
uosity. 1t was gumshoe campaign
on the part of both factions, but
every effort was made to bring out
the full voting strength of the village
The total vote was 259.

RETAIL DEALERS IN COMBINE
Charge Made Direct to Legislative
Food investigation Committee
at Columbus.

Columbus, O.-The examination of
witnesses to get at the causes of
high prices was started by the legis-
lative food probe committee here.
C. w. Wood, stationary engineer
of West Town street, testified that
last November he heard agents of the
Sunbury and West Jefferson Creamery
Cos. tell Mr.. Houser, dealer at State
and Mitchell streets, that if he sold
their butter for less than 40 cents a
pound that they would refuse to sell
to him. He said that there was a
combination among the retail dealers
of the city. State Labor Commission
er Charles W. Wirmel submitted
statistics based on returns from a
number of cities which show that
while living was going up. wages
were going down.

The Fight Against tuberculosis.

Interest in the anti-tuberculosis cam
paign now being waged throughout the
United States is evidenced by the fact
that in the year 1909 1853 new anti-tu-
berculosis associations were formed,
1873 tuberculosis sanatoria and hospit-
ais were established, and 81 tubercu-
losis dispensaries were opened Com
pared with previous years, this is the
best record thus far made in the fight
against consumption in this country.
During the year 1909, 43 more asso
Citations for the prevention of tubercu.
losis were formed than during the pre-
vious 12 months, and 81 more hospitals
and sanatoria were established. On
January l, 1910, there were in the Uni
ted States 394 anti-tuberculosis associ-
ations, 3S6 hospitals and tuberculosis
sanatoria and 265 special tuberculosis
dispensaries.

ROCKY BOY INDIAN LANDS
OPEN F0R SETTLEMENT.

Secretary Ballinger has issued In.
structions to throw open 100000
acres of land in Eastern Montana to
white settlers.
This land was withdrawn about two
years ago for the purpose of allotting
to the Aocky Boy Indians. The tract
contains the very choicest lands in
Valley County and wherever farming
has been carried on, It has produced
yields Of from 20 to 30 bushels of
wheat per acre, 40 to 70 bushels Of
oats and large crops Of hay, alfalfa
and vegetables.
There are over 5000 160-acre home
steads in this tract, which is con.

Advises RETURN to Farm.

The investigating committee" said
Chairman Williams of the legislative
food committee, "has gone far enough
in its work to be able to say that its
report to the legislature will contain
only two remedies of any Importance.
"We will recommend to the people
of Ohio that they go back to the farm !;
that more attention be paid to every
phase of agriculture with the end in
view that the states yield be increas.
ed; that the agricultural experiment
stations be established in every coun.
ty.
"The. reason these legislative probes
are necessary is because grand juries
fail to do their duty. 1t was intended
originally that grand juries should be
inquisitorial, always alert for infrac
tions of the law; instead they have
decayed until they are mere servants
of prosecuting attorneys"

Ohio Happenings
LOOT OHIO STATE TREASURY
Former Partner OF Mark Slater, Ex-
State Printer, confesses to Graft
Probe Committee.

Columbus, O.-J. e. Brelsford, the
former partner of ex-Public Printer
Mark Slater, confessed at the
hearing before the Beatty probe COM
mittee here that he had helped loot
the state treasury of $14,SO190, in the
three years that he sold bindery sup
plies to the state.
His accomplice, according to his
testimony, was Mark Slater, former
Republican supervisor of printing.
Vouchers for the nearly $4,000
were cashed through the state treas
urer's Office and the money was
divided between the state officer and
Brelsford, the tool. The state did ont
receive one dollar in goods or sup
plies represented by this big amount.
The money put into the public treas
ury by the taxpayers of Ohio was
filched to be spent by Slater, a good
share of it, it is charged, In the sa-
looms and disreputable resorts of this
city. For Slater, while engaged in an
astounding career of graft, was noto-
rious as a rounder and good fellow"
The testimony of Brelsford further
showed that Slater was not even
square in the crooked dealings with
his accomplice. The agreement,
Brelsford testified, was that the
stolen money should be divided half
and Half. Brelsford admitted get
ting $4,352.9O, saying he had hard
time to get that More than $4,000
went to Slater, 1t was testified. In
clear, unfaltering voice and without
hesitation Brelsford answered the
questions fired at him by Senator
Sherman S. Deaton of Urbana. Brels-
ford will not be arrested. He was
promised immunity previously when
he confessed to Senator Richard A.
Beatty of the probe committee that
he had helped Slater rob the state.

The Wonderful Y. M. C. A.

In the past ten years no other re-
ligious organization has received so
much money as the Y M. c. A Mil
lions have been raised for new build
ings all over the land, and with no ap-
parent strain. Its business-like admin
istration of it's vast resources, it's en-
ergy in pushing its work-in the cities
and through the railroad, army and
navy branches-and it's fine policy in
following the armies in all recent
wars, have created for it worldwide
enthusiasm. At the last banquet Of
the international committee, Senator
Root affirmed that they had made
their way by working with men more
than by talking to them, saying:
Come with u.s." not go do that"
BY their appeal to all classes of Chris
tians, as well as to Christians,
they have kept out of doctrinal theol-
ogy, and by their activity in good works
they have escaped cant in religion.
All interested in saving our boys and
young men rejoice in their worldwide
success.-Leslie's Weekly.

Next day 1t came, but the cook made
the mistake of not boiling it sufficient
ly, and we did not like 1t much. This
was, however, soon remedied, and now
we like it so much that we will never
change back. Postum, being a food
beverage instead of a drug. has been
the means of curing my stomach trou-

POOR CH0LLY.
Who Are the Elect7

Two modern statements of the doc
trine of election" neither of which
would quite satisfy John Calvin or
Jonathan Edwards, are given in the
Congregationalist.
One was Henry Ward Beecher's epi-
grammatic and convincing phrases:
THE elect are whosoever will; the.
non-elect are whosoever won't"
