Letter from Former Resident
Kent, Ohio.
Dear Editor

Kent, Ohio.
Dear Editor
AS | have been off for some
time thought | would give you
some news from this town.
This is certainly a good little
town Of five thousaed inhabit-
ants. Farm work is above the
average. Some farmers near
here have twenty acres of pota-
toes out, and one farmer near me
threshed 1000 bushels of oats
and 700 bushels of wheat.
Kent, Ohio, is a great town for
dairy business, every farmer
nearly runs a dairy with any
where from twenty five to one
hundred and twenty five COWS.
Kent furnishes nearly al! the
milk for Cleveland, Akron,
Cuyahoga Falls, and other neigh
boring cities.
1t is very cool up here and it
rains a good deal, but when it is
not raining it is nice place to
be.
There are half dozen lakes
near Kent which are good places
to fish in and they are nearly all
accommodated with fine parks
and everything for amusement.
/ shall not write much this
time, a friend at Akron takes the
Chronicle and if l see this in
print | will call again.

representative government. and
shall continue to make that fight
within my party: but | feel it my
duty to support Gov. Wilson at
the coming election, believing it
to be the only proper course left
open for one who is sincerely in
terested in the establishment of
progressive legislation in our ma
ton at the earliest moment.
To-day | held a conference
with DIR. Harvey w. Wiley, who
stands out at the foremost figure
in this nation as a protector of
the lives and health of our child
rem, ard he informs me that he
is opposed to the election of
either President Taft or Theo-
dore Roosevelt, because both
failed during their administra-
tons to properly support the
fight against the rich manufac-
turers of harmful foods and
drugs"
ROOSEVELT ovERLooKS HIMSELF
Mr.. Roosevelt declares that
Barnes, Penrose and Guggen-
helm work hand in hand with
the big interests. This is all
true. How about Mr.. Roosevelt
himself?
1t was not at the solicitations
of Barnes and Penrose and Gug-
enheim that Edward H. Harri-
imam raised political corruption
fund of $3.50, 900. 1t was at the
solicitations of Theodore Roose-
welt.
1t was not Barnes and Penrose
and Guggenheim who, according
to DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, bucked
the Pure Food Law. That was
done by Theodore Roosevelt.
1t was not Barnes and Penrose
and Guggenheim who failed to
bring the machinery of the law
into play to send George W. Per-
kins to the penitentiary for viola
ting the Sherman Law in organ
izing the illegal harvester trust.
and who then accepted Perkins
millions to run for a third term
for President. That was Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
SPEAKING OF REMARK.
After all, the real significance
of the vote in Vermont recently
was not the size of the Bull
Moose vote or the heavy inroads
it made into the regular Republi-
can vote, but the splendid show
ing made by the Democrats, who,
in round figures, increased their
strength from 10000 in 1908 to
70, $50 in 1912. This means that
the party not only stood solid as
a rock, absolutely united, but it
drew to itself a large Republican
vote.

flying condition of our school
finances. The last of the old out
standing warrants issued at the
time the school house was built,
were taken up last year and $1,000
of the bonded indebtedness was
paid. This year another thousand
will be paid on the bonds. This is
all that is due, but If the bond
holders will accept the money two
thousand will be paid. While the
indebtedness has thus been de-
creasing the schools have been i'm.
proved, another year added to the
course, making a full four years
high school course necessitating an
increase in the teaching force.
