PLEA
FOR LINE AID.
County C. Commissioners Grant
Second Petition to Allow
Voters to Pass on Subsidy,
November 3.

The purchase of $4,000 worth of
preferred stock of the Richmond-Ham-
ilton Traction company with township
funds has, become an issue for the
decision of residents of Wayne and
Boston townships November 3, the
date of the general election.
The county commissioners today
granted the second petition for an
election which was filed today, and
called the election to take place in
conjunction with the general election.
BY filing the second petition, the pc
titioners having the knowledge of the
mistakes which prevented them from
winning the first one. would have been
able to force the election. In order
to prevent a long expensive fight, and
to save about $4,000 costs for a special
election, the commissioners called the
election to take place with the general
elections.
In the two townships small ballots
will be the only expense since the vot-
ing will be done at the same time
candidates for office are voted for.
In Wayne township the subsidy is
100000 and in Boston township $1O,-
600.
Engene B. Purtelle, the promoter,
stated today that the survey of the
traction line to Hamilton had been
completed and also that of spur to
Connersville. If the election is favor
able to the Traction company the work
of construction will be started Novem-

ment was issued at headquarters to-
day:
"A decisive attack has been made
Thirteenth and Fourth corps and parts
Of other divisions south of Noyon.
They suffered some loss. Beaumont
has been stormed. 1900 French pris-
oners have been captured. There are
three towns of Beaumont that are
evidently meant by this dispatch, but
it probably refers to Beaumont in the
Ardennes region not far from Sedan.
There is another Beaumont about 20
miles north of Paris. This town Is
4S miles southwest of Noyon and it is
hardly probable that the Germans have
been able to get so close to Paris.
Thirty-five miles southeast of Verdun
is another town of Beaumont. 1t lies
northwest of Nancy.
Attacks along the entire battle line
have been easily repulsed. Number of
guns and prisoners captured cannot
be estimated"

A CHANCE TO GET IN
ON THE GROUND FLOOR
Ebb Tide of Ostrich Industry About
to Turn

There is n fine opportunity for one
to engage in the ostrich business just
now, because of a slump in feathers,
decreed by fashion just as there has
been slump in diamonds. Fashion is
tickle so that this slump cannot be of
long duration. People have noticed an
advertisement in The Republican of
ostriches for sale at the price of IS. A
few weeks ago when they were offered
at $40 apiece, those who red the ad
vertisement thought that there was a
typographical error But it was not.
This price was made by Mr.. r. w.
Warren, representing the interests of
the estate of the late L. E. Gage in the
ostriches of the Pan American com
pany. At so he succeeded in selling no
birds though such birds as there are
in the flock have brought all the way
from $3.50 to $500 apiece within the last
few years. At IS he has sold few, the
largest lot to DIR. Chandler, who took
$50 of them the day before yesterday.
Letters from New York importers of
feathers indicate a return of the de-
mand for them when the business will
boom again and a man who has a few
birds will find himself in way to
make some smoney easy. In 1913 the
feathers from this valley to New York
amounted to $S1 900.

quest of City Manager Parish, in
specting the fire department and con-

FRANCE SETS AN EXAMPLE

The French Institute sets an ex-
ample to the world in its overwhelm-
ing example not to expel foreign,
even German, members Men of art
and letters in the beligerent lands
are not to blame for the war Their
prestige, their ranking, is individual
If in any case it merited a life men,
bership in the institute, it merits
that now. Cold logic and common
sense dictated the course that has
been taken
France, next to Belgium, has suf-
fered most. Many of her cities are
in ruins. Her capital of letters and
art and science has been threatened
and injured by German bombs. Her
government is in Bordeaux. Her
bitterness toward Germany is more
over hereditary. But she will not
let it tempt her into sacrificing the
character of the institute.
When the hostilities are over Paris
wants to reassert herself as the fcun-
tain head and center of the world
science. She is building for the
future in this refusal to do petty
things now. Building for the future
is always worth while-Breoklyn

Superintendent F. 'Thack-
cray Especially Proud
With Splendid record Of
Uncle Sans Charges at
Tenth Arizona State Fair

One of the largest and most inter
esting exhibits at the state fair is that
of the Indians of Arizona. All of their
exhibits this year are in competition
with all other exhibits, and the fact
that they have taken 90 first premi-
umS and 90 second premiums, on their
exhibit is in itself a splendid endorse
ment for the industry and intelligence
of the Indians of Arizona as well as
the Indian service, which is headed by
Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian af-
fairs at Washington. He has been es-
pecially interested in the Indian fairs
and wherever possible is pleased to
have them enter into competition with
their white neighbors. His interest in
this line is indicated by the following
telegram addressed to Superintendent
Frank A. Thackery, who has been in
charge of the general Indian exhibit,
including Indian sports on Indian day:
Washington, D. c.. Nov. 8, 1914.
Thackery, superintendent:
Best wishes for success of Indian ex-
hibit at state fair. Please convey my
thanks to fair officials for their CO.
operation. l very much regret my in
ability to be present
SELLS, Commissioner"
Arizona has approximately $4,000 In
dams within its border, practically all
full-bloOds. This is a greater Indian
population than that of any other state
excepting Oklahoma, and even in Okla
hOma ii is necessary to count in the
freemen or adopted negroes before the
number there is in excess of that of
Arizona.
The state fair authorities have been
very liberal in giving space for Indian
exhibits at the present fair In addi-
ton to space allotted for agricultural
exhibits four large booths were provid-
ed for the class room and shop ex-
hibits Of the different Indian schools by
the state. Two of these booths are
filled by a very creditable exhibit from
the Phoenix Indian school, which is
one of the largest Indian schools. in the
United States. The other two booths
are filled by exhibits from various day
and boarding schools.
The state fair commissioners and
other officials of the state of Arizona
have manifested a greater interest in
the Indians of their state than that of
any other state fair association, and
Commissioner Sells and the Indian ser
vice have expressed their appreciation
of the opportunity thus afforded to
show to the public what the Indians
and the Indian service are really doing
