ditions--ProbabIy Better
Car Service.

On Monday, September s, Villa
Maria Academy will again open its
doors to students of this community
and those from abroad, and the reg
ular primary as well as academic
work will be given. In addition to this
work it is well to call attention to
the advantages that can be had In
the higher arts, such as music, art,
Ielocution, bookkeeping and steno-
graphic work. These courses can be
had by superior instructors at very
nominal charge. Parents and guard
ians' attention is especially directed
to this work which can be had here
at our very doors.
An effort is being made to have the
car service every hour in the after
noon in order that special work pupils
can go and come at convenience and
not interfere with other duties.
After the summers vacation this in
stitution of learning will open Mon
day, fresh for duty, and is prepared
to care for all little girls and young
ladies that may apply for admission.
The extensive grounds. shaded by
clusters of stately oaks, afford ample
space for exercise, and all outdoor
athletics, and altogether make villa

dominate legislation and the small
counties would have no choice in
legislation.
The so-called Small Legislature
proposition is vicious and would be
an outrage. No good could come from
its adoption and much harm might
ensue. There is no evil to correct
by it, but evil turks in its wake. There,
is no public call for its adoption-its
motive is ulterior; its conception in
iquitous.
1t is high time the people became
aroused to what confronts them in
the Small Legislature proposition. If
ever there has been a time when the
best interests of the people were men
aced, that time is at hand; and it
behooves every voter to go to the
election next month and put into the
ballot box No vote on the menda-
cious Smaller Legislature proposed
amendment to the constitution of
Ohio.
These are strong words; but mild,
indeed, in expressing and represent
ing the danger that besets us.

SHOOTING WILD OF THE MARK

One of the widest OF all the false
reports which have been circulated Is
that OF the Cincinnati Underwater to
the effect that 1000 additional men
are to be employed to carry out the
workmen's compensation law. That Is
dream pure and simple, and there
never was any foundation for such a
ridiculous statement. To show how
far from the truth the assertion is,
some other predictions from the same
source are given:
II was charged that it would cost
the state $2,0OO,0O0 to administer the
law each year It actually costs
the state $1500O0 annually
It was asserted that a skyscraper
would be required to house the clerks
necessary to carry out the law. The
department administering this law,
and eight other state departments
are all TO be situated on single
floor. a
Now about the 1000 additional
men. There are only Is field men
employed In the compensation de-
partment, and Secretary Archer OF
the industrial commission, says these
are sufficient to do all the work. Not
single additional man will be EN-
ployed.

tions to amend the constitution on
which the voters will be given an
opportunity to express themselves.
The full text of four of the five propo.
sltions is being carried in advertise
ments in the newspapers OF the state
and the voters have the opportunity
to inform themselves as to the four
referred to. The order in which these
four propositions will appear on the
ballot is as follows:
First-The short ballot for state
officers.
Second--Short ballot for county and
township officers
Third-Exemption from taxation of
state of Ohio, city, village, hamlet,
county, township, road district and
school bonds.
Fourth Eligibility of women to ap.
pointment as members of boards Of
or positions in, departments and insti-
tutions affecting or caring for, wom-
EN- and children.
The above are the titles of the
four legislative propositions with
which the voters have had a chance
to become familiar through the ad-
vertisements.
The fifth will be designated on the
ballot as Small Legislature. AS it is
an initiated amendment, no advertise
ment OF it is carried in the newspa-
pers, as there is no provision in the
laws of the state for securing public
ity in such manner.
The title OF the fifth proposed
amendment, Small Legislature, is in
nocent and sounds nice, and those
back OF the proposition may have
given 1t the innocent and nice-sound.
ing title for the very purpose OF
throwing people OFF their guard and
inducing support of it by such a sub
terfuge But be that as 1t may, it is
q proposed amendment that should
arouse the voters to organized effort
TO defeat it, In brief, It is to dc
away with a representative in the
Legislature from each county and
create legislative districts by popu
lation. This would mean that each
of the large counties of the state like
Cuyahoga. Hamilton, Lucas, Frank
lin, &C., would have several represen
tatyes. while the smaller counties
like Knox would be punched into dis
tricts, maybe as many as eight or ter
counties to a district, with each dis
trict having single representative
This would simply mean the doing
away with the county unit, losing the
individuality of the county, SO tC
speak, and depriylng the separate
counties OF proper and intelligent rep
resentation. Suppose that distric
was made up Of Licking, Knox. Della
ware, Morrow. Crawford, Rlchland

counties and that its representative
was resident of Crawford county
