TIFTY years ago the 6rst great
n battle OF the war was fought
near Manassas. We, IN front
of Washington. on tn, field
known as Bull Run. Not until recent
years has that initial struggle been
seriously considered as a clash Of
arms having valuable military results
for either side.
The boys IN blue marched out to-
ward Richmond u days journey and
then marched back by night at pace
not at all slow and with bloody noses.
l was not in the battle, but l served
through many later campaigns in a
regiment which had its baptism Of
fire there and lost % killed and l0S
wounded while facing the music. 1
heard the story from the lips of my
comrades again and again at our
campfres, for they talked of that bat
tie more than Of all others together.
The battle was brought on by the
impatience of the north to have
force of raw troops capture Richmond
at one dash. The Confederatos had
to meet the dash and held
two armies, aggregating $4,000 men,
in readiness to dispute the road from
Washington to Richmond via Manas-

SOME OF THE SIMS OF
OMISSION

A few weeks ago the Associated
Press informed tho country that a
Texas Court had declared the lnitla-
tive, Referendum and Recall uncon-
stitutional. Such papers as tho Phila-
delphia Telegraph, owned by mem-
Der OF John Wanamaker's family,
could not say epoughi in praise OF the
decision. But only recently the SUI
preme Court of Texas reversed this
decision. If tho Associated Press sent
out that item of newp the papers being
served by IL must have overlooked the
matter. Papers like those Of the
Scripps- Mcliae League having indie
pendent sources Of news getting seem
to be the only ones that wero informed. .
This is the only one of many in
stances which show tho danger Of pri-
vate monopoly of telegraph lines.

battle, the struggle where the day was
decided. This was on the Henry house

Fight at the Henry House.
The crisis ut the Henry house Dla-

one way, and it seemed that the Fed

posting down from London to visit his

Harry Bellairs had small room to

gone down hopelessly in the scale; for
since the dame had set her heart upon
this marriage that would bring to
Lilias the delights Of the court, the
triumphs, that had filled her own
dreams as a maid, sbe was scarce civil

had scant grace for my Lord Wycher-

Putnam COUNTY sentinel. ]

| Hon. Atlee POmerene has been Sena,
tor only short time but he has made
| more trouble for the robber trusts
than anybody did in long time. He
| has already nit them so hard between
the eyes that not one of them will con-
/ tribute cent to his reelection. He
made one of tho most forcible speeches
in the Senate chamber few days ago
that has been heard in that gone to
| seed body in years. He did not use a
feather duster to strike at the real
| enemies Of the country. He used the
sledge hammer of truth and fact. So
many Senators make speeches that
fill several pages and which don't
make the trusts mad. Pomerene
made a short speech and made Rookie
feller and several other big cooperation
grabbers mad. The special interest
man never likes short speeches. He
wants them made long so the natives
wont read them. Pomerene talked
out loud. He claimed that according
to law that a rich man could be pun
ished as well as a poor man. This was
new and startling fact at Wahing-
ton. All the old dry bones of tho
National Capitol are trying to find out
whore this man Pomerene comes from
and what ails him. A man at Wash
who has the nerve to tell the truth
about some things is worse than the
small pOX. Pomerene claims that the
Government can't bust the trusts SO
long as the fellows who are trying to
do the busting are also drawing big
salaries from the trusts. Pomerene
will ruin business by such talk-thatI
is ruin the trust busting business men.
P0merene in the Senate and Cooke in
the House have introduced bills to
make the pet bankers pay interest on
public money just the same as every
banker does i'm Ohio, if he has any
public funds. OF course the pet bank
ers are not petting these Ohio Demo-
Gratis. Pomurene and Cooke are both
new men from Ohio, but they are max
ing more trOnblc for the thieves and
robbers at Washington than any other
two men have in years. POmarene

WATCH THAT PLUTOCRATEC
OHIO STATE BOARD OF
COMMERCE

The Ohio State Board Of Commerce
at Columbus, has passed a resolution
calling ON the business organizations
Of the State to take action against the
Incorporation Of tho Initiative and
Referendum Ia tho new constitution.
Il is not likely that such resolution
expresses the real sentiments Of more
than t very small percentage Of the
business men OF Columbus and that
small percentage is probably mainly
composed of what is popularity called
Big Busire5s,' ~ the kind that depends
directly or indirectly on special privi-
iagc in some form or other. 1t is not
probable that the legitimate business
mon of the state wautto autagoniza The
interests of farmers and Iaboring men
as welt as their own, for the sake of
predatory interests. If they allow
themselves to be bamboozled or fright
euel into such course they will have
only themselves to blame when they
find trusts and monODoIius pushing
toward bankruptcy.
The fact that this so-caIlod

engineered by Allen Ripley Foote.

Some trust congressman are raising

would be reasonable to infer from this
that if these same congressman were

first what a Burglary Commission had
