SACRIFICED MYSELF

Ann Arbor Pastor, Ousted From

ANN ARBOR. Mich, May 90
Rev. Percy M. Dawson, recently de.
posed as pastor of the Unitarian
church in this city, has issued a
lengthy statement in which he de-
clares he sacrificed himself to q
backward church.
Mr., Dawson declares the Ann
Arbor church has fallen behind the
other progressive churches in the
thoughts and needs OF the times, but
expresses the hope that the convul-
sion In which he has played a part
may be the means of bringing about
a new era. This will probably be
the result OF the trouble, he says,
but only at the expense of another
minister or two
The church has been recognized
as conservative for 20 years or more,
Rev. Dawson says, and the breach
between 1t aud the other churche s
in the conference has been slowly
broadening all the time. AS the re-
suit, when new minister comes.
with new ideas, the conservative
element Is soon aroused, the pastor
is called a politician, a fanatic. so
cialistic and irreligious, and trouble
starts at once.

CLEVELAND, o., May 20.-At the
close OF the fiercest campaign for dele
gates ever contested in Ohio. President
Taft and Col. Roosevelt today express
ed equal confidence In the result or the

final dash the two principal candidates
were joined today by Senator LaFol
lette, who is seeking the selection OF
Republican national delegates only In
districts embracing Cleveland. Toledo
and Columbus.

ly In the day scheduled to make nine
speeches before closing the Ohio cam
paign tonight at Dayton. Roosevelt

The president spent day OF rest
yesterday with his brother, Charles P.
Taft. in Cincinnati.
LaFollette conferred yesterday with
Republican progressives supporting
him In Cleveland. He will close his
campaign here tonight.
BY voting for presidential delegates,
Republican voters in Ohio tomorrow
will have what is their nearest ap-
proach to a presidential preference
election. However, both Taft and
Roosevelt today based their only
doubts over the outcome on the con-
fusion expected to result from the
blind ballot" The name of neither
candidate will appear on the ballot and
unless the voter is sure Of his dele
gate candidates he may vote for an
other than his choice for president.
Early in the campaign hot fight
was waged over this point by the sup
porters OF Taft and Roosevelt. The
state central committee. strongly
fayoring the president, succeeded In
preventing the appearance of the
names OF the presidential candidates
on fhe ballot ~
The Democrats will have full pref
erence election. On the ballot appear
the names OF Gov. Judson Harmon, OF
Ohio, and Of Woodrow Wilson, govern
or OF New Jersey. A vote for Wilson
is vote In support OF the fight made
by William Jennings Bryan for the
progressive Democrats against the
candidacy OF Gov Harmon, who has
