The Ohio Democratic convention has renominated Gov. Harmon and presented his name for the party's Presidential nomination in 1912. Of him, the platform says:
 He believes that guilt is personal is acting on that belief at home and would act upon it in larger fields. A high sense of duty provides his only motives for official actions, and his sense of justice alone compels judg- mcnt- FirmneSs and strength mark him the man to supplant vacillation and weakness. The nation needs a real man and the Ohio democracy presents and endorses for the Presi- dency in 1912 Judson Harmon.
 If reelected Governor, Gov. Har- mon will rank high among ,Presi- dential possibilities; if defeated, his chances will be few and small.
 The convention refused, by de- cisiye vote, to name a candidate for |. s Senator. but did declare in favor of the election of U. s. Sena- tors directly by the people instead of by Legislatures. MT. Bryan's censure of Gov. Harmon for neglecting to have included in the call for the con vention the selection of a candidate AoA oChotOis iCII Iidl, HI SO IdI as effect upon the convention was con- cerned. This was as it should have been. MT. Bryan attempted the exer- else of more power than he really holds. He can advise but not dic- tate, and so far as we know, he holds no punitive function when his ad- vice is not followed. His advice should have been given to the State committee and the convention, not to the Governor. and his censure of the latter was really an impertinence

NEW HAVEN GIRL LEFT BABY ABOARD
 SOUND STEAMBOAT

New York June 24.-An expensively . dressed baby boy was found deserted in stateroom of the Richard Peck when the Sound steamboat reached her peir at Catherine street and the East River yesterday morning. A woman, who boarded the steamboat at New Haven, was seen to leave the pier, weeping and evidently in great distress, but she disappeared quickly in the direction of the Battery.
 The baby is blue eyed, rosy cheek ed and in perfect health. When found he was crying lustily. Half an hour after the steamboat arrived Mrs. Mary Bell was attracted by the in fant's cries to stateroom No. 31 and saw the baby lying on berth. The cabin was deserted and no baggage had been left.
 The steamboat records showed that the stateroom was engaged in the name of J. H. Adams and the pursuer said that dark complexioned man with a black mustache paid for it at New Haven. The baby's clothes are of fine material and we'll made.
 On the floor of the stateroom was found letter signed by the Butler Business College of New Haven, and addressed to Miss Amy Blackall, 179 Congress avenue, New Haven. The police took the letter and are investi- gating.
 The baby was taken to Bellevue and will be christened Richard Peck if the mother is not found.

SLIP IN WILL GIVES ALL TO GRANDDAUGHTER THOUGH
 RELATIVE DIDN'T MEAN IT.

New Haven, June 24.-Although Francis Flower, formerly with the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company, provided in his last will and testament that his grand daughter, one Elsie F. Upton, of Providence, should receive $2,000 and no more of his estate of about $15,000 little slip he made in preparing that important document means that she will get it all A will under Connec- ticut law must be signed by three wit nesses and it was discovered, when the will was filed for probate here yesterday afternoon, that this had but two. Consequently it will probably be held invalid by the probate court and the only heir at law, will get the en- tire estate. Flower had divided his estate among a lot of small charit- able bequests and appointed Frank |. Edgerton of Meriden, as executor. Edgerton brought in the will yester- day and learned to his surprise that it was not in due form.

MISS AMY BLACKALL TO WHOM LETTER ADDRESSED
 IS AT FATHERS HOME

New Haven, June 24.-Miss Amy Blackall, a letter to whom was found on board the Richard Peck after the abandonment of a baby, is the daugh- ter of Robert Blackall, a yardmaster of the New Haven Railroad, who lives in Portsea street.
 When informed of the finding of the letter and the baby MT. Blackall ex- pressed great astonishment. He said he could not account for a letter ad- dressed to his daughter, being found on board the steamboat, as all of his family was at home. He said his daughter is sixteen years old and while she was at home MT. Blackall refused to allow any one to see her. Miss Blackall formerly was a student at the Butler Business College.

THE VOLLMER BOOM Days of "Sid" Hawley and His Big Stick Nearing An End, Says Republican
 Paper
(Norwalk Hour. Repo

(Norwalk Hour. Rep.)
 The days of the @tbig stick'' wielded by Sheriff Sidney p. Hawley, Repub- lican boss of Fairfield county, are waning, and from the political aspect of the county at present things are ripe for change. At all events, we are informed that MT. Hawley has troubles enough in his own party not to attempt to dictate the Democratic nomination this fall as it is alleged that he has done for years past.
 The great majority of Norwalk cit izens believe that Chief of Police Will liam Vo1lmer is the man to wrest the crown of victory from the Hawley contingent.
 Taking into consideration the gen. eral outlook and conditions at the present time and relying somewhat upon the encouragement which I have received unsolicited from many of the towns of Fairfield county, feel quite confident that, should I be honored with the nomination for county sher- if by the Democratic party, I would win the race,' was the answer Chief of Police William Vollmer of South Norwalk, gave to an Hour reporter in an interview this morning, when ask ed how the prospects looked to him
 Chief Vollmer's political campaign is being managed by several battle scared political fighters, prominent among whom IS eX-SenatOr Jeremiah Donovan, whose ability and fighting qualities are of state wide reputation The genial ex-Senator is heart and soul in the work of defeating Sid Hawley and is making the fight of his life for his prospective candidate.
 Perhaps the one quality which Chief Vollmer does not have, and the lack of which appeals to the county after it's experience with the present incumbent of the office, is that of a politician. The statement made by Chief Vollmer at a recent banquet at Roton Point, in which he said: 'If elected to fill that honorable position, would not be the man to stand between a na- tive son and his ambition to sit in the United States Senate,'' was charac- teristic of the man and bespeaks his sentiments bearing upon the county sheriff's rights as a politician.
 He is prominent in fraternal life being a charter member of Cigar Max CTS union No. 26 of this place; a charter member of Olive Branch lodge Knights of Pythias and of the Knights of Labor; a member of the Old Well Hook and Ladder company of Old Well Lodge No. 108, F. and A. M; Butler Chapter R. A. M; Clin- ton commandery Knights Templar; Pyramid Temple of the Mystic Shrine, an Eagle and was recently made a member of the Norwalk Lodge, B. P. O. E. and the Arion Singing Society, besides being enrolled in the member ship of a number of German societies.

The campaign publicity bill, pass ed by the Senate, requires the pub- lication thirty days after elections of all contributions to National or Con- gressional committees in the interest of the election of members of the House. In so far as the peoples in- terest are concerned, the bill is farcieal. The publicity is too late to be benefcial-too late for the voters to estimate the probable course of candidates from the character of the campaign contributions. It is evil dently so intended. The interests can contribute heavily and rest as- sured that their hand will not be shown until too late to be effectively antagonized.

THE POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

The postal savings bank bill, hav- ing passed both branches sof Con- gress, will now become a law by the approval of President Taft who has heen pushing the measure through. Under the bill, deposits of S1 or more may be made by any person over 10 years of age. but no one can have more than $500 to his credit. Five per cent. of the deposits goes to the L. $. Treasury as a reserve; 30 per cent may be invested in government bonds, and the remaining 65 per cent. is to be placed in local National and State banks which must pay 2A per cent.s interest upon these funds, but the President may. at his discretion. take this 65 per cent. from the banks and invest it in government bonds Depositors are to receive ? per cent. interest and may, at any time change their deposits into U. S. bonds. The designation of post offices as postal savings banks is left to the Postmas- ter General, Secretary of the Treas ury. and Attorney General, acting as a board of trustees.
 This measure has been strongly urged by the West and the South which are not well provided with adequately supervised savings banks. In the East, postal savings banks are not needed. We have savings banks which are properly supervised by State authorities and are safe, be- sides paying double the interest rate of the postal savings banks. The 65 c tO local banks, under bonded security, unless invested in U. S. bonds at the Presidents discretion-this being probably intended as a war measure and to provide a fund somewhat simi- lar to the German war clest"-will quite probably find it's eventual way to the call-money. market.
 The whole matter is experimental, and no one can now tell how it will work out.
