At Ccllr.cs, O., George 3. Cox

handed over Judge OTen Brit Brown

i'll the Republican state convention and
brought about the nomination of
Warren c. Harding, editor of the

man.
BY this stroke Mr.. Cox drubbed
Senator Theodore E. Burton and pre-
vented the nOmi-ation of Representa-
tive Nicholas LOngwOrth, eX-President
Roosevelt's son ir- aw, and the candi-
date most favored by President Taft.
The preliminaries Of the session els,
posed Of Senator T. e. Burton took
charge as permanent chairman.
1t all happened on the third ballot
Temporary chairman Longworth had
turned the eavel over to Permanent
Chairman Burton, the latter had de-
liered his speech and John R. Malloy
had called the roll of counties
The first ballot resulted as follows:
Harding, 485; Browne, 413; Garfield,
49, Longworth, go; necessary to
choice, 534
On the second ballot the vote was:
Harding, 1917 Browne, 1863; Longworth
1884, scattering for Garfield.
The Cuyahoga county delegates
were jumping about the convention
hall, calling upon the delegates tt
come out for Longworth.
Result Of the third ballot follows:
Harding, TAG; Brown, 100; Long.
worth, 1876; Garfield, 5.
R. r. Nevin Jr., of Montgomery
county, who had named Judge Brown
moved to make Harding's nomination
unanimous, and this was done. Mr..
Harding was brought before the con.
Vention by Mr.. Nevin and Maurice
Matche of Cleveland, and made
short address.

platform, were all inserted in Dicks
platform But the bulk of Dick reso
lutions in this state platform, plastered
lavish praise on Taft, the tariff and
the Ohio delegation in congress AID
endorsement for Taft for another
term was written in The platform
is considered the stiffest piece OF
standpattism presented by any Repub-
lican convention this year.
Only two nominations were made,
that of Judge Orrin B. Browne and
Warren G. Harding. The votes fol
Longworth and Garfield were purely
complimentary.
The regulars" had control of the
convention. An indors ement of Pres
ident Taft satisfactory to both "pro.
gressives" and regulars" was one
prominent result of the work of the
subcommittee.
Garfield announced shortly after the
adoption of the platform, which IS
looked upon as being a victory for the
regulars and slap at Garfield, that
he would not be considered as a can
didate. His name was not presented.

Going to Buy an Auto?

If you are contemplating the pur-
chase of an automobile for use the
coming season, we urge you to care
fully consider the Maxwell line be-
fore deciding what machine to buy.
We believe there is no machine
Manufactured in America that will
give such perfect satisfaction and
such absolute reliability as the Max
we'll. Nor is there a machine that
is so easy riding, so easy to operate,
or so economical in the use of gaso-
line, upkeep, repairs, etc., as the
Maxwell. For the same money We
do not think it can be excelled. Ask
any person who owns a Maxwell;
that is the best recommendation of
a car. We have the exclusive agen-
cy for the Maxwell machines in Win
neshiek county, and will be pleased
to submit catalogue, prices, etc.
Don't put off buying until spring.
Then you may not be able to get
delivery of machine before late in
the summer. Come in and talk to
us about the Maxwell.

Great Iowa Water Power Project.


Mr.. Henry Paine sends us a copy
of the titution-Democrat of Keo-
kuk, Iowa, in which announcement
is made that the great Mississippi
river dam and water power pro-
ject which has been in process
of development for several years
is at last a certainty, that the
New York syndicate that is to
furnish the capital has ordered
work commenced at once, and that
the dream of years of that city is
about to be realized.
The dam proper, exclusive of the
mammoth power house, which will
be part of it, will be 5000 feet
and 80 feet high, above the natural
water level, and built of concrete.
The power house will be 1,S63 feet
long and 80 feet wide. There will
be AZ immense power generators, of
1890 horse power each, working on
vertical shaft, like the generators
at Niagara. 1t will be one of the
greatest water powers in the world,
and will furnish electric power for
wide territory. The development
Of this latent natural power supply
will doubtless be an incentive to the
further development of many similar
enterprises of smaller magnitude
throughout this section of the coun-
try.

BOOST!

Have you sbeen in the boosters
club or among the bell ringers?
Don't nock,-boost. Boost the
good old home town that supports
your business and that you live in.
Every knock not only hurts the town
but hurts yourself.
Enthusiasm brings business, and
if you do not have confidence in
yourself how can you expect others
to place confidence in you? The
officers, directors and stockholders
of the citizens savings bank are all
active members of the boosters club
have confidence in themselves and
the officers of the institution. The
citizens savings bank helps boost
your profits by paying four per cent
on time certificates. Think of this

Philadelphia Will Send Delega-

nounce their intention of bidding for the

race that he would head delegation of
PhiladeIphians who will come to New York
tomorrow and confer with the governors
Of the Automobile Club of America.
1t is not probable, however, that the
Philadelphians will be fortunate enough TO
get the race. The same night that it was
decided to can it off here w. X. Wander

race, and there is a growing feeling that

Inasmuch as passenger mile cost was the
basis of the test, 1t wss decided that the
automobile while not in operation should
be locked up by the observers IN the place
designated by the contest board OF the
American Automobile Association, making
access impossible. This was unnecessary.
however, for the reason that the car re-
quired no attention, no repairs nor ad-
justments OF any kind throughout the en-
tire test
Gasoene and oil were the only items OF
cost. and these were procured along the
route for the purpose of striking a fair av-
erage of retail prices. Since the horse was
also touring" the feed was purchased in
