Litigation Their End.

1T has been frequently charged in
open court and never denied that the
plaintiffs purchased their stock for
the purpose Of maintaining this liti.
cation, The plaintiffs claimed that
the transactions which we have men
toned we're part of a combination
between the Lake Shore and the
Chesapeake G. Ohio to restrain com.

Central, the Kanawha & Michigan
and the Hooking Valley, and9 alleging
that they would be injured thereby,
asking for an injunction and receiver
and procured a restraining order pro-
hibiting the Hooking Valley from
proceeding with the retirement of its
preferred stock and from holding the
special stockholders meeting above
mentioned, and also from recognizing
the Chesapeake & Ohio as one of the
stockholders. This restraining order
was issued ex parte upon the filing
of a $1.O90 bond.

A Fitting Endorsement

The Democratic Central Committee
at its meeting last Wednesday made
no mistake in endorsing Ed +. Romer
Of this city for Secretary of State. HIS
name has been frequently mentioned
in connection with the place by the
newspapers Of the state, who see in
him man admirably fitted for the
office. He is now serving as one Of
the inspectors Of the State Banking De-
partment, and II is to him that the
credit is due for the exposure of graft
in the Auditor of States and State
Treasurer's offices under former Re
publican administrations during the
last few months.

A Great Advantage

Inan editorial lamenting the fact that
congress refused to vote President Taft
s25O,OOO to defray the expenses of a
commission to fix up and juggle tariff
statistics for political purposes, the
Ohio State Journal Rep says: This
policy Of President Taft would have
been of great advantage to the Repub-
lIcan party because it tended to estab-
lish the correct principle in reference
to the tariff.
Indeed! So the appropriation of
quarter million of dollars in this case
would have been all right because it
would have been of great advantage
to the Republican party" This is a
significant admission for g.o.p. organ
to make.
Congress is supposed to appropriate
the peoples money for the benefit of
the people and not for the benefit of the
Republican party.

Dick Claims His Own

Senator Dick has called the bluff of
his factional opponents and political
enemies. In a bristling statement he
declares that the primary vote in his
favor is binding, that no convention
resolution for or against him affects the
obligation, and that if Republican
legislature is elected he expects "a COM
plete fulfllment of the party obliga-
tion thus imposed by the primaries"
Dick has been in politics too long not
to know the binding force Of a primary
nomination. He points outin his state
ment that his claim upon the nomIna-
tion of his party for the senatorship is
as binding as the claims of the p Re-
publican candidates nominated for con-
gress and of any or all the Republican
nominees for the legislature because, to
quote his own language, I'VE we're all
named under the same law, were voted
for on the same ballots, and the results
were all certified to by the same cleo
ton officers" and he further asserts
that ''the nominations thus made for
every Office are absolute"
He also points out that these nomi-
nations came not from conventions or
committees, but directly from the peo-
ple," and here he puts a cIincher in

Hy Still Has His

The legislature has been adjourned
now for some time. The probe CON-
mittee completed its work and reported
before the legislature adjourned. And
still Hy Davis hasn't paid it back.
Neither has w. S. Rogers, nor any
other Republican state official who col
lected expenses according to ruling
made by former Republican attorney
general.
But the cop. papers still go on max
ing an awful fuss because Creamer and
his deputy and one of the deputies in
the fire marshal's Office have paid back
what the probe committee said they
were not entitled to collect and because
Zuber, Kearns and Wirmel paid it back
as soon as the present Republican at
torney general reversed the opinion of
his Republican predecessors. Zuber,
Kearns and Wirmel paid it back long
before probe committee was appointed,
even before the legislature met. Hy
Davis and Rogers have not paid it back
even after the present Republican at

Better" With Whom?

This from the Cleveland Leader:
THE general assembly comes out of
the sessions work in better standing
than Governor Harmon"
Right, b'gosh, exactly right. The
Governor didn't seem to have any
standing at all with the g.o.p. major
ity in the legislature, Notwithstanding
his high standing with people of good
standing throughout the state.
The legislature, with its g.o.p. ma
jority, guided by the g.o.p. bosses, in
sisted on sitting down on everything
Governor Harmon proposed and dis
torted what It did not crush entirely.
Since the legislature adjourned,
however, Governor Harmon managed
to wiggle out from under the heap, and
the way he sat down on some of the
monstrossities produced by the legisla-
ture and scrunched the stufiing out of
'em put him in higher standing than
ever with the people.

Bryan to GoU. Harmon

VIM. j. Bryan, in The Commoner, "
last week had an editorial addressed to
Governor Harmon. In part the article
reads as follows:
Have you any influence with the
Democratic state committee
"Ifyou have, why did you not urge
the committee to include the selection
Of a candidate for United States sena-
tor in its call for a state convention.
fyou urged this upon the committee
and were turned down, why didn't you
appeal to the convention, as Governor
Marshall did9
He made fight for the nomination
of a senatorial candidate and not only
won a victory for the Indiana Demo-
Gratis but won place among the nation
al leaders of the party.
Are you willing to follow his ex-
ample: If not, how will you explain
your attitude?
DO you lack courage or do you pre-
fer the dark lantern methods that are
responsible for the elevation of so many
corporation tools to the senate?
Even if you are not an enthusiast
on the popular election ofsenators, your
personal interest in the coming state
campaign ought to lead you to favor
the nomination of senator.
THE Republicans will have a candi-
date and a very weak one, too. Why
conceal the Democratic candidate?
"Ifthe convention does not name him
the Republican papers will spend their
lime guessing at him. They will pick
out all the Objectionable men in the
Democratic party and charge that these
men are setting up the legislature.
They may even suggest the name of
John r. Mclean, whose paper is one of
the boldest assassins of Democratic
politics. Do you think you can carry
him through a campaign?
This is a crisis which will show your
size.
'Areyou ready to have your measure
taken?
"lf you falter, prepare to stand aside.
'The Democratic party is no more to
be trihed with.
1T has suffered so much from the
secret manipulation Of the predatory
interests thatitdemands daylight meth
IDS and honest politics. 1t is up to
you, governor"

Those who complained against the
purchase asked Judge Safer of the
United States court to dismiss their
petition, and the request was granted.
During the past ten days the Hooking
Valley sale has been the subject Of
much argument in the courts.
The trouble started in the Franklin
county common pleas court, before
Judge Kinkead, when demand was
made that the retirement of certain
stock be prevented. Judge Kinkead
stirred up a hornets nest by appoint
ing receivers for the Hooking. This
unlocked for decision was at once ap.
pealed to the circuit court and the
receivers were summarily dismissed.
The railroads had previously ask
ed the United States court to take
the case into its jurisdiction. While
Judge Safer had this under consider
alton, representatives Of another
small block of stock tried to get ac-
tion on an earlier case previously re-
moved to the United States court,
and through Samuel Untermeyer Of
New York and Wade Hampton Ellis, |
appeared in court.
On this motion the case was set |
for trial before Judge Safer. The |
railroads were on hand with wit. |
nesses and records to defend the |
suit. They we're prepared to show |
that the purchase of the Hooking |
Valley and X. & NJ. stock was clearly |
within the provision of Ohio laws.
Before the railroads were given an
opportunity to make their defense

claring that the struggle the freemen
of the days of John Brown went
through to abolish the slavery of the
day was being duplicated now, when
freemen are in a struggle to gain con-
troll of their own government. Theo-
dore Roosevelt launched a new nation
ism in his speech here yesterday,
made on the occasion of the opening
and the dedication of the John Brown
National Park.
His address clearly aligned the for
mer President with the progressive
movement in opposition to the special
interests.
Roosevelt declared himself in favor
of a wide increase in the powers of the
national government, terming this
the new nationalism.' The issue of
the day, he declared, is the struggle
of the freemen of America against
those who are seeking to continue
their hold on the national govern
ment.

posal of General Picuuart and Gener-

by an aeroplane to act as scout and

In addition the opposing generals
will each have four aeroDlanes undo.

are now being worked out. They
will probably provide that any aero
plane which succeeds in reaching a

sidered to have put the other out OF
