the officers did not have q search
warrant in their possession. Officer
Thompson was left to keep watch,
while Chief Kllnefelter went TO the
mayors office to procure the neces-

be found so the chief in company
with Captain Bond. returned to the
barn and persuaded Mosier to un-
lock the door. The case containing
the liquor was soon found, but the

ATMOSPH HERE
Cochran Thinks Things will
Be Different In Columbus.
Harmon Bound to be a
Good Governor.

Columbus, o., March 1G.-N n.
Cochran, editor of the Toledo News
Bee. today sent the following story to
Scripps- McRae newspapers in Ohio
relative to the present status of pro-
gressive measures in the Ohio Iegis-
lature.
There Is change in the legisla-
tive atmosphere. The work of Gov
ernor Harmon and Lieutenant Gov
ernor Nichols is beginning to tell. and
there is a better understanding be-
tween the Legislative and executive
branches of the government than at
any other period during the session.
Agree on Constructive Program.
There is now practically unanimous
agreement on constructive legisla-
tive program which includes not only
keeping every platform pledge. but
in the enactment of other progressive
legislation which Governor Harmon
favors.
A friend OF the governor SAYS that
IL is Governor Harmon's ambition
that Ohio history shall write him
down as a good governor and this a
b'pN l'blSldthitt nv htdlltT Whit the
politics of the future may bring
forth.
Anyhow there can be no question
about the earnestness with which he
has been and is now using his influE
ence for constructive progressive leg
lslation. In much of this, ne will have
the support OF progressive legislators
In both parties.
VIII Have Unanimous support.
With most of the progressive poll
tics. Governor Harmon from now on
will have practically the unanimous
support of Democratc members
Much of the factional bitterness has
spent its force, personal animosities
have quieted and there is n better
feeling all around. From now on,
bills that have been held up in com
mittee will rapidly come out and
come to vote.
There Will not he the opposition to
the remainder OF the governors pro-
gram that developed against the
Stockwell bill. And even If the ore
gon plan is not adopted under the
name of Senator Stockwell. the gov
ernor's friends are satisfied that some
bill will be passed accomplishing the
same thing. The Oregon house bill
Is the same as the Stockwell senate
bill and If the latter fails, the former
will pass

DEWEY AGREES
WITH BERESFORD
N And Disorders. N
Not Sanguine of Realization
Of His Arbitration Views
For Many Years to
Come, However.
BY United Press Wire.

Washington March l6-The admiral
of the United States navy, George
Dewey, in statement to the United
Press today declared that he was in
sympathy with the arbitration views
of Admiral Lord Charles Beresford,
leading authority of the British navy
as given to the United Press in Lon
don Yesterday, but that he was not
sanguine of their realization for
many years to come.
Beresford was moved TO speak by
the suggestion of President Taft in
favor of arbitration and he said that
the United States was best qualified
to lead the way. Admiral Dewey,
however, made 1t clear that he does
not believe that the United States
should advance the question of dis
armament.
Arbitration Progressing.
Arbitration is making progress In
the settlement of international ques
tions" said Dewey, "and | am for
1t heart ana soul. | do not believe
however, that In our day we shall
see substantial peace established on
that basis.
1.-THE policy we should pursue has,
I think been best expressed by Gem
eral j. Warren Keiffer, of ohio
when he said
"In time Of peace, prepare to
maintain peace,
"There is nothing of war or any
thing opposed to arbitration in that
sentiment"
A Compliment 10 u. S.
Dewey referred to Beresford's
statement that "the United States is
absolutely invulnerable" as a COM
pliment TO this country, and added
"There always have been people in
this country ready to criticize the
United States navy and army in
magazine articles but that was the
case too. at the beginning of the
civil war"
When asked about the reported
danger of Japan seizing the Pacific
coast through sudden attack, the
admiral said:
at would take Japan n year TO
bring over 100000 men, but there is
no reason for them to be brought
The question of immigration appears
to have been settled to the general
satisfaction of both nations and

the boy editor received requests for
more and he decided to take sub
