ITALIANS DEATH
WAS ACCIDENTAL

DR.. r. J. Pierce, county coroner to-
day filed his verdict on the death of
Nick Zarcaginni, the Italian youth
who was killed near East Germantown
on the Pennsylvania railroad May IA.
Death was due to injuries received
from being accidentally struck by a
railroad train,' the verdict reads.
Zarcagginni, who was fifteen years
of age, was employed in the construc-
ton gang working on the double trac-
ing of the road in the capacity OF
a water boy. According to the evil
dence compiled by the coroner from
witnesses, the boy was running to
catch car and another train was
backing on the same track. Workmen
yelled TO the boy. warning him of his
danger, but he presumably did not
hear the warnings and the train struck
him, knocking him down. the wheels
of the rear car running over him,

AN OHIO ANALYSIS.

COLUMBUS, O., May 23.-Analysis
of the primary election returns in this
state, made today, show that Col.
Roosevelts strength was not confined
to any one particular part of the state.
He ran we'll among the farmers and in
the industrial and mining districts,
while in conservative urban localities,
where the president had hoped to car
ry all before him Roosevelt sentiment
was pronounced. Roosevelt managers
made much of an incident involving
the town of White House, which gave
the Colonel a big majority over Taft.
In Adams county, where hundreds of
voters were disqualified year ago be-
cause of election frauds Roosevelt ran
ahead of Taft.
Governor Harmon has issued a
statement saying that he will have at
least forty of Ohio's forty-eight dele
gates in the national convention. Fol
lowers of the Governor were jubilant
over his "vindication." They regard
his victory rebuke to William J. Bry.
an, who campaigned the state against
Harmon.

MARSE HENRY HAS
A NEW NIGHTMARE
He Sees Col. Roosevelt Nov
ing Into White House
for a Life Job. ~...
National News Association

LOUISVILLE, Ky, May 23.-In a
stinging editorial in the Courier-Jour-
nal, Col. Henry Watterson asserts life
tenure of office is Col. Roosevelt's
aim and the ultimate result will be
civil war.
He says: THE result in Ohio makes
it certain that the voters of the United
States will have to reckon with Theo-
dore Roosevelt next November at >he
polls. 1t will matter not whether he
appears under the emblem of regu-
lar party nomination or as an insur-
recto appealing to all parties. Unless
he breaks down under the strain and
is taken to a lunatic asylum he will
be candidate for president.
There can be in his name and per-
son but one issue-life tenure in the
executive office and a civil fabric i'm
perial in everything except it's nomen-
clature.
The hideous spectacle of an ex-
president, Battling like drunken har-
lot from one end of the land to the
other, dragging republicanism through
an ocean of filth, gives US a foretaste
of the infamies before us.
Calls T. r. "Madman."
There is nothing which this mad
man will not dare to attempt under
the excitement and the passion of the
state of war he has stirred up in his
own mind and in the minds OF the
crazy mobs that follow and applaud.
That he was able to draw a man like
Taft into cesspool attests the cruel
injury and wrong a maniac armed to
the teeth may accomplish, for Taft
is not only President of the United
States, but he is gentleman of up
right, self-respecting character. 1t
is clear now that he had better re-
manned in the White House, leaving
the frenzied paranoiac the field to
himself.
AT length this nation is a world
power. The issue precipitated by
Theodore Roosevelt is whether, being
a world power. this nation shall pro-
claim to mankind its own failure by
the abandonment of its constitution,
the overthrow of its safeguards and
the naming of a dictator. He who
says this is not the issue, little reeks
what he is saying; he who thinks it
| is not, were prudent to question his
| sanity. In its ultimate analysis and
| it's last Word the Roosevelt propogan-
da is the invocation of a madman to
civil war.
