Youth FeI|s Oakland City Man
Who Tries to Halt Attack ON
Neighbor Woman.

Mrs. Salie Folger and Mrs J n.
Rich of Hoods Drive, Oakland City,
we're aiding the police Thursday in a
search for Clarence Todd, so years
old. a former employee of the Excel
sior Laundry Company. who threat
ened to Kill Mrs Folger if she did not
dismiss case of assault and battery
that is pending against him, and who
assaulted and almost killed Mrs
Rich's husband.
Mr. Rich, it is understood, is un-
conscious at his home, No. 16 Hoods
\ Drive. and it is considered doubtful
whether he will live.
The assault was witnessed by Mrs.
Rich and her two small children, who
pursued Todd for several blocks after
he had struck the aged man over the
head with a spade, tearing open his
scalp and, it is feared. fracturing the
skull
Received Threat in Letter.
According 10 stories told Policemen
Ryan and Head by Mrs. Folger she
twice has been threatened by Todd
since she had him arrested two weeks
ago. Late Wednesday afternoon, she
said. she received a letter from Todd,
written on the stationery Of a down
town hotel, in which he said he would
tell her for the last time to with
draw the charges against him or take
the consequences"
Mrs. Folger says she probably Will
get a peace warrant against him, as
she fears he will kill her.
The assault on Mr. Rich is an out
growth of the trouble Todd had with
Mrs. F'olser. Until two weeks ago
he boarded at the Folger home, and
one night about two weeks ago he
came home on the same street car
that carried Mrs. Folger and her
daughter, Miss Irene Folger.
He walked home with them, but
when they were within a few doors
Of their house he suddenly attacked
Mrs. Folger and had severely beaten
her before neighbors arrived on the
scene. He was arrested and held for
the Grand Jury in bonds of $1,000 on
charge Of assault and battery.
FIees to Neighbours Home.
Tuesday night Mrs. Folger says,
Todd came to her home and told her
if she did not withdraw the charges
he would kill her She ran out of
her home and went to Mr.. Richs
house for protection, and Todd fol-
lowed, entering the Rich home de-
spite the commands of Mrs. Rich that
he stay out

 The people have been relievedy of the burdens of a higher tariff they have seen a part of the load lifted from the backs of the masses and placed upon large incomes; they have witnessed a change in the currency laws which makes Washington and not Wall Street the financial center of the country; they have seen the trust legislation enacted; they have seen the Filipinos promised independence, the promise to be fulfilled as soon as a stable government has been establish ed; they have reason to be proud of the manner in which the honor of the country has been upheld; they have reioiced that the country was kept from war with Mexico and put in po- sition to assist in restoring peace in Europe; they have seen the govern ment of the United States become the diplomatic clearing house of the world, potential in every capital.

A FORE WORD TO THE PEO-
 PILE OF NEVADA COUNTY

The Editor of the News has kindly rendered to the public the columns of his paper as a medium of communica- tion through which we may cooperate in any way that will be most benef- cial.
 The columns of the county paper are always open to the public as every one knows and the editor is always anxious to make his paper the very best but he does not always have the cooperation of his readers in making his paper what it ought to be. The average man is willing to pay the sub. scription price, go to his mail box after his paper and scan it's pages hurriedly for the news but there his interest usually ends.
 have long believed that any paper would be more valuable if it's readers felt that it was their paper. There would be larger number of contribu- tions, to it's columns, of matter that Is of common interest and mutual bene- fit. It would be a means of communi- cation among country people that would fill a long felt want. It could be made a farm paper in the truest sense. It would deal with the prob

ed to pause in his labors; surely the country will not be guilty to the dan gerous experiment of changing the leadership of the senate and the house. To what opposition would the nation entrust the government? To the Roo- sevelt wing of the party? That wing included more than half of the voting republicans at the last election. but every election since has shown a loss in numbers and disintegration in or ganization, Fx-President Roosevelt realizes this as well as anyone. and is centering his efforts upon a few of his particular friends whom he is trying to defeat. There is no possibility of the progressives securing control of either the senate or the house. To what opposition, then, will the country turn? To the standpat republicans? What have they done to earn return to power? They have, to be sure. drawn back some of those republicans who called themselves progressive; but the leopard changed its spots? Has the republican party reformed? Has stand-patism become less odious to the American people? If reaction ary republican:sm was a stench in the nostrils of the people in 1912, is the odor less offensive now when the whole country is keeping step with Wilson?
 The precident has not only been able to summon the democrats of the senate and house to the support of the measures recommended by him, but in nearly every case he has had the pleas ure of seeing republicans vote with the democrats. So habitual has become the tendency of some of the repubii- cans (not always the same ones) to join in the support of democratic bills that one of the democrats has wlttiiy suggested that "The republicans ought either to quit criticizing the democrats or else quit voting for democratic mea- sures."
 It is only a few weeks more until election; let every reader of The Con- moner busy himself with campaign work from now until the polls are closed. He should be sure to vote him self, and to keep the matter before his neighbors. It is easier to bring democratic voter to the polls than it is to convert republican-therefore, get the vote out.
 But this is not enough-the victory this fall ought to be -whelming. Let every democrat pledge himself 10 bring at least one republican to the support of the administration candi- dates. It is not likely that the ma jority in the senate or house will turn on one vote, but it may. Take no chan ces. GA democrat would never for give himself if as a result of his neg
