in 1851. In a speech delivered in
Columbus few weeks ago, by the
Hon. David Mead Massie of Chilli.
cothe, he decried the work of the
new constitution and made sarcastic
reference to the large volume of new
laws. Impliedly, if not directly, he
contended that 1t was an untoward
interference with the work of our
fathers and yet ! notice in the pub
lication entitled Ohio Centennial
Celebration edited by that distin.
guished patriot, =. o. Randall of the
Ohio Archaeological and Historical
society, speech is reported as deliv.
cred by Mr.. Massie at Chillicothe on
the occasion of the Ohio centennial
anniversary celebration, May, 1908.
Mr.. Massie said: Most of the writers
who deal with the history of Ohio
seem at loss for words adequate to
express their contempt for the first
constitution of our state He then
quotes Rufus King as saying: 1T
would be respectful to pass that in
strument in silence; il provided a
government which had no executive,
half-starved, short-lived judiciary
and a iopsided legislature.' He also
recalled the observation of a distin-
guished author whom he does not
name: When Ohio became a state it
adopted a very foolish constitution.
so it would seem that those who
seek by contrast to inyeigh against
recent constitutional and legislative
developments in this state have, in a
moment of oandor, when political heat
was not so noticeable, admitted that
our fathers were men with all the fal-
lible qualities of the human.

BRITISH FLEET BOMBARD=
ING GERMANS.

Desperate fighting is going on be-
tween the allies and the enemy.
Ostend is being shelled by the British
monitors. also the trenches occupied
by the Germans. The German
cruiser Emden has destroyed four
British steamers in far eastern
waters. Italy has decided to remain
out of the war but Portugal may
join the allies today. All along the
big battle line the allies claim they
are holding their own. The Bel
gians as usual are fighting heroically
and doing much to stay the progress
of the Germans. Russia reports
victories but the Austrian Prussian
army seems to be holding its own
against them.
