False Cry Raised About
Creanler to Befog Issue

For no other purpose than to befog
the issue and befuddle the voters in
this campaign, Harding, Denman and
their satellites are making more fuss
about disputed expenses amounting
to $4,000 which Creamer collected
when he was state fire marshal (but
paid back under a ruling by Denman
reversing a ruling made by Former
Attorney General Sheets), than they
are making about 100000 of real
graft charged against Republican off.
cials THAT HAS NOT BEEN PAID
BACK.
This so-called graft charge against
Creamer is foolishly false and a ma
licious Misrepresentation of fact
trumped up for campaign purposes
only to- cast a blemish, if possible,
upon his splendid record as state
fire marshal and his superior record
as state treasurer.
When Creamer was fire marshal he
secured the conviction OF ~ lnCeu-
diaries in one year, more than were
ever convicted by any Republican
fire marshal in the same length Of
time. And Creamer managed the of
fee so economically that he turned
back into the treasury a balance Of
$11,064 over and above expenses at
the end of his term, something no
Republican fire marshal was ever
known to do The $11,064 which
Creamer saved to the state as fire
marshal, notwithstanding the increas-
ed number of incendiaries prosecuted
and convicted, is nearly 40 times the
$4,000 alleged graft that Harding
and Denman ct al. are bowling about
up and down the state.
Since he became state treasurer,
Creamer has saved to the state over
$4O,330 by increased receipts on de-
posits of state funds impartially dis
tributed among banks by competitive
bidding, instead of being farmed out

1906 he was reelected, although the

President Taft
to Keep Silent

Il was in Cleveland, while on his
way to the conservation congress at
ST. Paul, that President Taft an
nounced that ho would make no po-
Iitical speeches in Ohio during the
campaign.
It was in Cleveland that Wade El'
lis, while serving as President Taft's
receiver of the Republican party in
Ohio, announced in a speech TO the
Tippecanoe club last spring that
"President Taft will be running for
every Office on the Republican ticket
In Ohio this year, from governor
down to township trustee" i" and that
"the presidents Lincoln banquet
speech in New York will be the plat
FORM"
As a platform" the presidents
New York speech Is long forgotten
And, although the Dick-Taft.Harding
platform adopted by the Columbus
convention begins with this eXtrava-
CANT praise: I'VE, the Republicans OF
Ohio in state convention assembled,
commend in highest terms the splen-
did administration of William H.
Taft, are proud Of the results he has
already achieved in his II months Of
office, and pledge him our heartiest
and united support in his further ef-
forts as chief executive of the ma
tom" and although the same Dick
Taft-Harding platform defends the
Cannon-Taft-Aldrich tariff and de-
clares that mo tariff bill was ever
more unjustly assailed," President
Taft has found it necessary to write
new platform" for the campaign
textbook. The platform" written by
Mr.. Taft at Beverly had to be re-
yised, after it was examined in New
York. before It was accepted for pub
lication in the campaign textbook
the textbook which ignores the In
surgents and devotes all of its space
to arguments Of the stand-patters.
And although Mr Taft appears to
be running for governor of Ohio in
the person of Warren G. Harding, In
asmuch as Mr.. Harding says the cam
paign shall be fought on the slogan,
"Stand by Taft" and made 1t known
during the legislative reunion at Ce-
dar Point that he will win or go
down to defeat this fall on the atti-
tude of the Ohio voters toward the
administration of President Taft; "
that the big issue in Ohio this year
is whether the presidents own state
is going to stand by him." Mr.. Taft
is not going to come to Ohio to make
any speeches to stand by himself or
any of the numerous platforms that
have been put forth in his behalf.
Why need the people of Ohio give
themselves any concern about Presi-
dent Taft or his administration or
his platforms if he is not sufficiently
concerned or is afraid to defend him
self face to face with the voters of
his home state?
1t will be time for the voters to de-
eide whether they care to stand by the
administration Of President Taft
when the next national campaign
comes on, for they will be better able
then to judge whether President Taft
should be stood by or sat down on.
State issues and the election OF
men to state offices to put those is
sues into effect are more important
anyway in Ohio this year
The voters of Ohio have the mag
nifcent state administration of Gov
ernor Harmon to stand by this time.

per cent to 4.10 per cent for inactive

available was sufficient only to sup
ply institutions which bid from $40
to 4.10 per cent, inclusive, or an aver
age Of 3.35 per cent for inactive de-
posits, and ESQ to 2.55 per cent for
active deposits, which resulted in the
state receiving an increase in inter
est of about 81 900 per week. He Is

Timothy S. Hogan was born 46
years ago, a short distance from the
city of Wellston, Of sterling Irish
parents. His education was obtained
in the common schools, but at an
early age he distinguished himself by
a marked aptitude for learning, and
his young manhood found fitting
scope for his powers as superintend-
ent of the public schools Of Wellston,
a position which he filed for several
years with credit to himself and. to
the immeasurable good Of the
schools. Leaving the profession Of
teaching lie entered the law, and has
practiced continuously since 1894,
winning high distinction in the pro-
fession of his choice. He is recog-
nized by bench and bar as one Of the
ablest lawyers in the state, and has
a wide practice in both state and
federal courts. He holds his degree
of NJ. A. from Ohio university.
He is one Of the ablest and most
brilliant orators in Ohio, a classical
scholar, a keen student of men and
affairs, loyal friend and forgiving
enemy.
Mr.. Hogan's fame has extended far
beyond the boundaries Of his home
state, a fact due, perhaps, quite as
much to his winning personality as
to his high abilities. Courteous, cul-
tured, refined, he is a fit examplar of
the highest type Of American citizen
ship and his profession
