PRESIDENT OPENS
LIVELY CAMPAIGN
IN STATE OF OHIO
Flags Roosevelt's Attitude in
Speeches on Steel and
Harvester Trusts.

ATHENS, Ohio. May 6.-President
Taft was out bright and early today on
the start of his long personal cam
paign for the Ohio delegation OF forty
eight members to the national con-
vention to be selected at the primaries
May 21. The President made his first
speech at Jacksonville at S:45, continu-
Ing his new fighting policy of vigorous
ly fiaying Roosevelt for his attitude
toward the Steel and Harvester trusts
and replying to all of Roosevelt 6
charges and defending his own Ad-
ministration.
After the Nelsonville speech Tafts
special took him to Athens and Hamp-
den, where he talked. The afternoon
program included meetings at Chillo-
the Greenfield. Leesburg, New Vienna
and Blanchester.
The President will reach Cincinnati
late tonight, going directly to the home
of his brother, Charles p. Taft, where
he will also spend Tuesday. On We'd
nesday Taft will go out into the State
again for one of the most strenuous
fighting days of his life. He is billed
to make fourteen speeches, the last al
a bigg mass meeting in Columbus. This
will conclude the Presidents campaign
in southern Ohio.
Next week he returns for four or five
days in the northern part of the State
where he realizes he must make a bit
ter fight to show with Roosevelt In
the count.

Even more lmpotent was the effort OF
the Taft people to arouse opposition to
Roosevelt by having Mr.. Taft read at
baltimore bogus circular, signed
Roosevelt Committee" This circular
urged people to vote for Roosevelt, be-
cause IL he should win the postmas ter
a. baltimore would be certain to secure
2 third term. That official, 1t appears,
is NOT populnr and this circular Is de-
clared by the Roosevelt people to have
been issued by the Taft forces as a
roosevelt. At any rate, the Roosevelt
managers utterly repudiated It today.
McKinley's Prediction Fails.
The Texas outcome, in the caucuses
on Saturday, brought qualification to
Roosevelt headquarters Some time ago
director Mckinley announced that Cecil
Lyon, Roosevelt manager in Texas,
would lose his own precinct, county, and
district. Instead he carried them e..

difhcult to manage under Cecil Lyon,
because he has tried for years to build
up real party. He is not a Federal
ofnceholder, has refused to have office
holders on his committees, has not per-
United them to go as delegates to con-
ventions, and in general has kept the
party in the hands of the people in
stead of the gang. That makes 1t ut.
terly different from the other Southern
organizations, and the Taft people have
been at loss how to handle 1t.
AS result they didn't handle It al
all, and from 20 to IS Of the 40 delegates
from the State will be for Roosevelt
The Democrats outcome in Texas
Is quite as cheering to the Wilson
forces. CeIntor Culberson made a fight
for Wilson, while Bailey spoke FOL
Harmon. l. was largely a question ol

the Democrats If Texas were not il
favor OF free raw materials. The Har

But Unable to Check
Roosevelt Gains.

voters of Prince George county are
registering for the first time their
preference for the Presidential nom
ination.
Although the Republican organiza-
tion in this county Is backing the

very much as II Roosevelt will have
the majority when the votes are
counted tonight. The colored vote In
this county favors Roosevelt.
In the Democratic camp there has
been a great shift of front in the last
week, a large force OF Clark men hav-
ing gone over to Wilson. The organi.
zation forces of this party are behind
Clark and while they have a power
full backing 1t is not thought they
are strong enough to give Clark the
county. There are only two sets OF
delegates on tho Democratic ballot
and the other. while not being pledg.
ed to any particular candidate, are
known to be Wilson men.

sional primary for the nomination Of q

HONESDALE'S new POSTOFFICE
Not a Better Office Can be Found in
the State-FiXtures in Early Eng
lish-Ideal in All Its Appoint-
ments-Credit to Honesdale.

Honesdale is going to have the
most convenient and up-to-the-min-
ute postoffice of anywhere around
this section of Uncle Sans domain.
We had our first peep into that Of
flee on Saturday last. The woodwork
of the fixtures is finished in Early
English and is rich in harmony. The
ceiling of the room is white, while
the walls are a pale salmon. The
floor of the lobby will be covered
with a very light pink tiling with
six inch boarder of a little darker
hue.
The new office, which will afford
25%o additional room over the pres
ent postoffice, will be equipped with
all the latest furniture for the assort-
ment and distribution of the mails.
In the new postoffice there will be
ample room for handling rural de-
livery and star route mails which is
now inadequate.
The arrangement of the new Of
fee, as planned by Architect Harry
Weaver, who was employed by the
council to make the change, is con-
venient and commodious. The en-
trance to the lobby is through two
single doors. At the extreme left is
lu6 OllCG. AuJdCenI W
that, the financial department, which
is divided into three apartments,
namely, Money Order, Registry and
Postal Savings Bank. To the right
on an angle with the financial de-
partment is a section of lock boxes.
Next to that is the general delivery
window, where stamps and envelopes
will be sold. Adjoining this window
there are two more sections or series
of lock boxes and then the private
entrance to the main Office for en-
ployees. The work is being rushed
to completion. 1t is expected that
the new office will be occupied by
October 1st.
The front and window sash and
frames of the city hall have been re-
freshened by paint. The building is
now very attractive inside and out.
The new Office is a credit to Homes
dale and is right in keeping and in
line of beauty with the Maple City.
Everyone who has seen it greatly ad-
mires the office, both as to attractive
ness and convenience. Postmaster
Allen and corps of efficient workers
are elated over the new office, which
they soon will occupy. After, the Of
flee is completed the public will be
given the privilege to inspect 1t be-
fore occupancy.

FORTENIA MAN KILLED
Anthony Clark Fell From Window i'm
Scranton Sunday Morning and
Fractured His Skull.

Walking in his sleep early Sunday
morning, Anthony Clark, aged six
ty-eight years, of Fortenia, fell two
stories from window at the home
of his brother, James Clark, Scran-
ton, and suffered injuries that
caused almost instantaneous death.
He struck head first on a stone side
walk, his skull being fractured.
A pathetic feature of the case is
that the aged man was called to New
York last week to attend the funer-
al of another brother. Travel stain
ed and suffering grief over his
brothers death. the Fortenia man
stopped off to visit his brother there
intending to continue homeward as
soon as he felt able. He retired ear
ly Saturday night, but was unable to
sleep. Two or three times he was
heard moving about in his room. A
little before one o'clock he lurched
through window that had been left
open and a passerby found him
moaning on the sidewalk. He died
without regaining consciousness
The remains were brought to For
tenia Monday and the funeral was
held on Tuesday.
Mr.. Clark, for many years, was a
stone mason on the Delaware and
Hudson gravity road He leaves a
wife and several children. Joseph
Clark, of Park street, is a son of the
deceased.

MT. PLEASANT MAN IN RUNA-
WAY

l.. w. Dequino purchased a fine
match team of horses from NJ. l..
Braman Monday afternoon and start
ed for home at o'clock.
The team had never been driven
with open binders, which accounted
for their being frightened. AS the
horses neared Ninth street at the
Allen House corner they bcame un-
manageable. Mr.. Dequino realizing
that the horses had the better of him
endeavored to check them by making
an abrupt turn in front of the home
OF Hon. William H. Dimmick. The
horses cut across the lawn and
jumped over an iron fence, continu-
ing in their maddened race. AS the
horses went into the road again Mr..
Dequino and gentleman friend were
precipitated from the wagon onto
the ground, but fortunately no
bones were broken. The dash board
was broken and the wagon seat dis
lodged. The team ran down Ninth
street to the Kuhbach barn, where
they were stopped. The tongue of
the wagon was broken at this point.

NEW ROAD BEING SURVEYED

State engineers and surveyors are
working on proposed new state
road which it is stated will be built
from Honesdale to East Cherry
Ridge, thereby eliminating the heavy
grade up Terrace street.
The survey includes part of Erie
street, striking a moderate grade at
the Law estate. 1t follows the side
hill in a southerly direction, passing
over Ferber and Goodman properties,
reaching the summit of the hill near
the home of John Male, East Cherry
Ridge, on the Sandercock road.
This is feasible and a State road
built that way passes through one of
the most picturesque places in
Wayne county.
