REGARDING GOOD ROADS

The proposed method of building
roads by bond issue, which Gov. Har-
mon recommended, will OF destroy the
low tax rate idea TO which the people
of the state seem to be committed and
preserve to the counties, townships
and road districts their local funds. A
campaign for Endorsement by the peo-
pie of the proposal at the polls has
been started It Is true progressive
movement. Spreading the interest and
sinking fund charges over a term of
years will fix charge not to exceed
three-tenths of mill. Undoubtedly
the investment of s50,000,00O during
the next 10 years will be the greatest
asset ever added to the state by inter-
nal Improvement. II will increase farm
values, give employment to men, stim-
ulate many kinds OF industry and be-
gin an era of prosperity throughout
the state. The most important part
of the proposal is the stipulation that
the state shall pay all the cost of these
roads, thus leaving to the counties and
townships the control and use Of coun-
ty and township road funds for con-
struction and upkeep Of local roads.

TAFT HAT IN RING

The Taft faction of this congression-
al district threw its hat into the ring
at meeting held at Mansfield Tues
day afternoon at which fulsome reso-
lutions were adopted, and candidates
for delegates and alternates to the
Republican national convention were
agreed upon to represent the Taft fac
ton on the ballot at the coming prlm-
airy. The candidates for delegates are
Hon. III. III. Greer of Knox and David
S. Troxel Of Lorain. For alternates,
j. II. Beattie of Huron and w. t.
Vaughn of Morrow
The Roosevelt faction will doubt
less be heard from later, and not much
later, at that. Hon. A. II. Garford of
Lorain, the member of the Republican
state central committee from this dis
trict, is the leader of the Roosevelt
faction In the district, and when he
gets his cohorts together they will
probably be able to adopt just as fer
vid resolutions. 1t is certain that they
will have candidates for delegates
and alternates to the national conven-
ton. What a merry war it Is!
Lay on, Macduff, and damned be he

SHARP FoRyANoTHER TERN

The expression OF. the meeting of
Democrats at Mansfield Tuesday in
favor Of the nomination of Hon. VIII.
liam G. Sharp for another term as con-
gressman from this district fully
voiced the sentiments of the rank and
file of the party throughout the dis
trict. 1t doubtless also represents the
view of large majority of the voters
of the district regardless Of the party
with which they claim atIlliatlon. Con.
gressman Sharp's record is one Of
which the voters of the district are
proud. lie is one of the big men" Of

the Fourteenth Ohio district, but to
the whole country and ii Is altogeth-
er probable that the voters of the dis
trict will return him to congress.

individually; make some calculations
on how much money 1t takes each
year to keep some certain piece OF
bad road In repair, ther calculate how
much 1t will cost to rebuild this road
of somc substantial material that will
cut out the repair expense: then ap-
ply the levy for road repairs against

TRUSTS TARIFF AND CAM
PAiGN FUNDS

The House Steel Trust Investigating
Committee has made public some Of
the findings of It's expert accountant,
Farquhar j. Mcftae, ~ho examined the
books and minutes bf the United
States corporation. J. n, Morgan &c
Company, 1t was reported, received ap-
proximately s70,0o0,000 cash profits
for organizing the pig stee, combine.
1t will be remembered that Theodore
Roosevelt, during 3 critical period Of
his public life, declared that he was
afraid of alternating the J. =. Morgan
interests, which had always been
friendly.
The net profits for the first 0 years
of the steel trusts existence were
more than one billion dollars, or ST.
O29,6S5, 1889, to seyekact.. That is equal
to profit Of approximately $13 ton
on finished product.
1t is needless TO state that there was
a high protective tariff during this
time, for the people know there was.
1t is needless to call attention to the
fact that the steel combine was organ
ized in violation of law.
Every one knows also that the steel
trust was organized during Repub-
lican national administration, and that
the Democratic party has not been In
power during It's existence.
The record OF the funds of the Demo
cratic and Republican national cam
paign committees OF 1896. 1900 and
1904 is Illuminating, when used in con
nection with the earnings OF the steel
trust. 1t would he even more iilum-
mating If earnings Of the other trusts
organized during Republican National
Administration could be given.
The data from campaign funns show
that the Republican party. received full
value for its protection.

bunal is notoriously a mill of inius-
tice, grinding the year round, its
grist being kernel and husk without
distinction. The editor who assails
the czar through the columns of his
paper ard the Nihlist who throws
a bomb, are chained together, prod
ded with bayonets and lashed with
! the knout as they struggle over
the soggy tundras to some far des
| tination where the standards of Cul
tured society are reversed and the
/ worst kuave ranks uppermost. Some
| of them go to the mines and others
are employed in railroad construc-
tion. TIE chains that yoke them to
their wheelbarrows are never unfas-
tened until death finds them in har-
ness and eager to 20.
When prisoner is sentenced to
exile his head is partly shaved in

is clothed in a gray suit which de
