PRIZE PIANOS ATTRACT
CROWDS IN BROADWAY

The two exceptionally handsome
pianos which The Herald will give,
absolutely free, to winners in the $25,-
900 voting contest continue to draw
increasing nun bers of interested per-
sons to the display windows of the
Fitzgerald Music company, 523 South
Broadway, where the instruments are
on exhibition.
The Fitzgerald Music company has
been in the piano business for a period
extending over almost a quarter Of a
century, and never have two pianos
of the same price and style gone from
the store that were superior to the
ones purchased by The Herald. In
tone in construction and in general
appearance they are perfect and win
ming either of them is worth the great
est possible effort.
The Henry & S. G. Lindeman Baby
Piano is a triumph of the piano
makers art, and from an ornamental
standpoint, alone. would be a valuable
addition to any home. Taking in con-
junction with this the fact that, from
a musical standpoint there are very
few pianos that equal and none that
surpass the Lindeman Baby Grand, it
is not a matter of wonder that so
many earnest workers have entered
the contest with the hope of winning
this instrument.
Not less attractive than the indie
man Baby Grand is the Steger &
Sons Upright, which will be given to
some fortunate contestant. 1t is one
of the finest instruments manufactured
by Steger & Sons Co. and is we'll

INAUGURATION TO
Be QUIET AFFAIR
Governor Harmon VIII Dispense
With All FTlIIS.

Columbus. o., Dec. l5.-No ceremo-
nies, aside from the administering OF
the official oath of Office by Justice
Spear, who will then head the Ohio
supreme court, will attend the second
Inauguration of Governor Harmon,
Jan. 8. This has been definitely de-
cided, at the governors request, as
he believes that the expense to the
state involved in the usual elaborate
exercises is needless.
Governor Harmon thus establishes
a new precedent. The governor will
not deliver an inaugural address and
the usual music and other speeches
and exercises in the capitol rotunda
will be conspicuously absent. The
customary National Guard escort also
will be dispensed with.
AS now planned, Justice Spear will
administer the oath in the governors
Office in the presence of the official
family and a few friends. Immedi-
ately following this ceremony Cover
nor Harmon will resume his duties
without further interruption.
No expense will be incurred In
decorating the statehouse, as has al
ways been done previously. nor will
the inaugural ball, the social feature
Of nearly every inauguration, wheth-
er first or second, be held.

RIVAL CANDIDATES DEBATE
Pomerene and HanIey Appear Before
Mansfield Audience.

Mansfield, o., Dec. 15.-Atlee Pom
creme of Canton and Il. w. Hanley
of Dayton, rival Democratic candi-
dates for United States senator, met
here in a joint debate of the sena-
torial issues.
Mansfield people were decidedly
surprised when the candidates both
arrived, as the expectation had been
that Pomerene would speak alone
and that possibly Hanley might come
tonight for a meeting in which he
would speak alone.
Pomerene emphasized in his
speech what he deemed a prevailing
sentiment throughout the state
against special interests further
dominating state and national legis-
lation. He declared he didn't con-
slider that the people, if the recent
election were accepted as a criterion
wanted man, known as a represen-
tative OF corporations, to go to the
United States senate to succeed Dick.
Hanley replied vigorously. accus-
ing Mr.. Pomerene of corporation af-
flliations, and defended his personal
record as n business man, identified
with politics for the good of the
cause and not for the advantage OF
his employers or himself. He de-
clared for the election Of United
States senators by direct vote of the
people; tariff for revenue only; re-
vision of present tariff schedule by
schedule; income tax; public utill-
ties bill, and denounced granting of
franchises to corporations unless
treasures Of state and cities should
receive fair share OF the corpora
tons earnings.

DICKINSON'S REPORT
TO Be EXPURGATED
Official Washington Shocked
at Disclosures.

Washington, Dec. 15.-An eXtraor-
circles over formal reports prepared
by the secretary Of war disclosing
state OF unpreparedness in the ma
tional defenses that is characterized
as sensational. Unusual efforts have
been made by members of the house
contents of these reports, on the
ground that their publication would
be detrimental to the governments
best interests. But Secretary Dick
inson and Major General Leonard
Wood, chief of staff, who ought to
know how far /; is expedient to dis
close the condition of the national
defense to other nations, have appar-
emily been entirely willing to have
the reports given out.
To make the situation more com
plcated, President Taft's views in
regard to the so-called sensational
reports do not accord with those of
his own cabinet advisers and chief
OF staff
The modified report, which is said
to be considerably mildcr than the
original, was sent to the house and
was marked confidential" The re-
port submitted was an expurgated
edition of the original. 1t was ac.
companied by a statement by Gen
eral Wood. AS the rules of the house
do not provide a practical method
for dealing with confidential docu-
ments, the Dickinson report was
made the subject of a conference by
Speaker Cannon and ether leaders.
They decided, after perusing its con
tents, that the portions containing
facts not detrimental to the public
interest should be returned to the
house and that the other material in
the report of a confidential character
should be sent to some house COM
mittee.
Although the contents OF the re-
port forwarded were closely guarded
II was learned that the document
points out that the country is wnolly
unprepared for war; that there is
woeful lack of men, of guns and
ammunition; that the army is on the
footing that approximates disorgan-
ization SO far as effectiveness and
efficiency are concerned; that the
coast would be imperiled II an armed
force appeared, and ether statements
along that line. The creation of a
council of national defense is recon-
mended.

SUMMONED TO WHITE HOUSE
Governor Deneen Unable to Explain
Sudden Call From Taft.

Chicago, Dec. 15.-- Governor De.
neen left for Washington, where he
will meet the president on an invita-.
tion received from the White House
He doesn't know why he has been
summoned by the president for a
conference and therefore could not
discuss his trip.
When II became known among Re.
publican leaders that the governor
was going to Washington to meet the
president. wise ones saw in the
event a move by the president TO
learn something about inside polit.
ical conditions in Illinois. Senator
Lorimer's ylndication by the senate
committee which Investigated the
charges affecting his election, and
the effect of the appointment of so
many Democrats to important posi-.
tions by the president, were suggest
ed-as possible topics of discussion at
the coming conference.
