Hampstead, Clark and Nevada, to turn out to the polls on Tuesday, November 8, and support the democratic candidate Mir. w. $. Goodwin of Bradley county.
 The November election will be one of the most important he'd for the past twenty years and never has the outlook been brighter for democratic triumph. The republican party throughout the country is divided, and as democrats have predicted for a quater of century the republic dllS nave IdIIcI Ouu dIlOnS OHSIh selves over the greatest of all question that has ever confront. ed any people-the question of taxation or, as com monly known in thiscountry the tariff question. The great west is republican on ~ly in name. It is democratic in sentiment and in truth. Such stalwart republicans as Cum mins' Clapp, LaFollette, Bever idge, Bristow and many others are in open revolt against the Taft administration and the lead ership of such men as Aldrich Cannon and the high prices. .ot protection generally. Not only in the halls of. Congress, but up- on the hustings dozens of men who helped to make the republi- can party have denounced 1t in the most unqualified terms and are unit with the democrats in the reforms of the day. Demo cracy has ever stood against the encroachments of the rights of the people as made by the tariff barons and the exceeding high cost of living of recent years is an evidence of the truth of demo. cratic predictions for the past quater of century.
 Republicans promised to low CT the tariff, but the Payne AL drich bill revised it upward and still they are claming recognition before an outraged people.
 Three or four congressional elections were held last spring in the republican strongholds of the north and east to supply vacancies in the lower house of Congress and in every instance democratic candidates were overwhelmingly elected in dis tricts that had never gone demo cratic before.

Have to Resign
Or be Fired
President Don't Want to Be Com
PEELED to Ask For secretary's
Resignation.
SEPTEMBER 18TH WILL TELL
THE, STORY IT is SAID.

BEVERLY. Mass. Aug. 17.-Beyerly
was completely upset last night, when
news came from New York OF the de
feat OF Colonel Theodore Roosevelt for
temporary chairman OF the New York
Republican State convention. The fact
that Lloyd c. Grlscom, president OF
the New York county committee had
been in conference with President
Taft as late as Saturday night and
Sunday, added to the sensation that
the dispatches created.
Mr.. Taft made no comment for pub
lication. There is nothing here to In.
dicate that he knew OF Griscom's plan
to force a vote on Mr.. Roosevelt's
name.
The story that Mr.. Grlscom took q
message to Colonel Roosevelt which
would affect the future relations be.
tween Mr.. Roosevelt and the President
Is discredited in Beverly, Mr.. Taft
has assumed the attitude that any
.overtures, II they be necessary, must
come "from the other. side"
The statement issued by Colonel
Roosevelt last night apparently plac-
ing himself squarely on the side OF the
'progressives" has created much COM
ment here.
What effect the developments in
New York may have upon the reor-
ganization plans that have been In
progress here must for time remain
a matter Of conjecture. So far as can
be learned there is a disposition here
to stand pat" on the plans as an
nounced.
Senator W. Murray Crane, OF Massa-
chusetts, the central figure in the re-
organization plans, was here late yes.
terday afternoon and spent two hours
with the President. The senator was
retlcent as ever.
With regard to the reports that the
reorganization plans might go on the
rocks because of the refusal Of Sec.
retary Ballinger to resign. 1t is stated
that when Senator Crane was first
called into the situation, 1t was on a
telegram asking II he could undertake
mission to the west "for the Presi.
dent" This mission to the west turned
out to be conference with Secretary
Ballinger regarding plan for his re,
tirement from the cabinet. It is known
that heavy pressure will be brought
upon Mr.. Ballinger to resign without
putting the President in the position
OF asking for that resignation
The 18th of September will tell the
story, and no one apparently in the
meantime can tell Just what the out
come will be.

new FACTORY
PROPOSITION
WAS UP BEFORE THE BOARD OF
TRADE AT! MEETING YESTER.
DAY AFTERNOON.

y Alta meeting OF the Farmont Board
Of Trade held yesterday afternoon the
proposition of the Anderson Manufac-
turing Company, OF East Liverpool,
was taken up and considered. The
Board OF Trade is now negotiating
with the Anderson Company and 1t
will not be long until matters will
shape themselves SO that it will be
known whether the factory will be
located here or elsewhere. The Board
or Trade offers q free site of two and
scne.half acres OF ground .and fuel In
sducements that cannot be duplicated
at any other place that the company
is considering q location. The only
place that is riyaling Fairmont in the
location OF the plant Is East Liver
pool, where the company has site
where Its factory was located before
st; was destroyed by fire. One thing
that the company wanted that the
4 Board of Trade would not grant Is a
Il i've thousand dollar bonus. The COM
pany claims that It will cost that
amount to move its machinery here.
The terms that the Board OF Trade
offers are very liberal and 1t is likely
that the industry will be located here.
In order that the advantages that
Fairmont has to offer manufacturers
may be properly exploited the board
OF trade has instructed It's Secretary
TO! send out ten thousand booklets
which were printed recently. These
booklets tell the story in way that
brings the manufacturer face TO face
with facts that argue for themselves.
These booklets will be sent out at
once. ~
The secretary was instructed 10 col
lect the money that Is due thi board
from new members that subscribed
during the recent campaign. The
money will be used to advertise Fair
monts advantages as an industrial
center.

Burritt also stated that sixty per cent
of the total number of arrests in the

The almost universal practice of
treating drunkenness solely as a pen

and of filming persons convicted of
public intoXication small amount
and sentencing them to Imprisonment
from three to ten days is of no use
whatever. either so far as the indi-
yidual or as society is concerned, "
said Mr. Burritt
The problem should be treated -
lie concluded. "as medical problem
with penal aspects, rather than PEN
al problem with no medical aspecta. -
He proposed a plan for dealing with
the whole problem as follows:
IA more adequate system of
Identification of cases of alcoholism
in order to sift out the 'rounder.'
IA graded series of remedies
including release of first offenders
without their appearance in court
and a greatly extended use of proba-

A COSTLY INVESTIGATION.
Especial to The Sentinel. ]

Washington, May 23.-The con
gressional Investigation of the Ballin-
ger-Pinchot controversy, the taking
of testimony in which has just closed,
has cost the government at this time
more than s42,5 in printing, stem
osraphers' fees and pay of witnesses

Chairman Nelson estimates that
the miscellaneous expenses will total
$25, ,000. and to this must be added
the cost of printing the testimony
something like 1000 pages, includ
ing indexes, reference books etc.
This will figure close to s17,500.
