We believe that the present system

believe that a valuation of all the

showing the total expenses for the

be made. and upon such assessed valua.

Nearly Thousand Americans Act Like
School Kids on Leaving England.
London Aug. 6.-The American
character was shown finely and typic-
ally at Southampton when 932 Amer
leans sailed on the liner Philadelphia
Five hundred and two Of them were
in the second class, which is the best
the vessel affords since it was placed
in the one class service by the Inter-
national Mercantile marine some time
ago, and the remaining 430 were in
the steerage.
It is safe to say that never since
the Mayfower has a ship sailed with
SO important list of steerage passen-
gers. This list of the Philadelphia in
cluded many milliOnaires and many
persons prominent in various walks
Of life. They showed no annoyance
at being compelled to travel in the
steerage and made no complaint at
their novel position. All were as
schoolboys; in fact, outwardly, they
appeared happier than those in the
cabin. Everybody was laughing and
in the best of spirits as he was escort
ed to his apartment

Ten thousand names had been report
ed by local committeeman, but not
sent in yet, and none was filed from
Dayton, where 1000 were obtained, or
from Hamilton county, where 5000
were obtained.
Mr.. Wheeler asserted they were
omitted because brewers and saloon
interests in those places boycott busi-

employees who sign"

answered the challenge Of the vets,

AUGUST Crop Report.

Columbus. Aug. 6.-The only fruit
that makes a creditable showing in
the August crop report Of the state
agricultural department is grapes,
which are put down at "a per cent Of
an average yield. Dry weather has
seriously injured the potato crop and
it is rated now at only So per cent.
Apples rank only at 80, peaches at 81
and pears at 81. The report carries
nothing as to corn. 1t is generally
believed by those who have watched
the rainfall reports that all upland
corn is on the verge Of ruin due to
the long continued drouth Wheat,
which is still carried as prospect, ="
and will be until actual threshings are
given, got out OF the way of the Sc
verest dry weather and is put down
at 1O5 per cent. Oats was hit hard,
however, and ranks at only n per
cent. The timothy prospect is 75, and
n per cent of the clover area was
cut for hay.

For Himself and Measures He
Stands for in Master
B Address

Gov. James M. Cox scored hit with
voters here and we'll pleased a good
sized Chautauqua audience yesterday
afternoon. The Governor spoke at a
big farmers picnic at New Hampshire,
in Auglaize County at one O'Clock and
was little late in arriving in this city,
Attorney General Timothy S. Hogan,
who also happens to be candidate for
United States Senator, preceded the
Governor and occupied the time until
Mr.. Cox arrived. Despite instructions
of the Chautauqua management TO re-
frain from talking politics Tim had
hard task to keep from breaking the
traces and once went far enough to take
a slap at Hon. John J. I.entz, of Colum
bus, his opponent for senatorial honors.
Mr.. Hogan seemed in the mood to leave
every one happy and jollied and bou-
quoted Democrats, Republicans and Pro-
gressives alike. He wound up by prais-
ing Governor Cox, President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan.
Governor Cox arrived here about four
O'Clock, accompanied by Senator John
son, S. J. Vining, Tax Commissioner
Morrow, Liqor Commissioner Short and
number of others who had motored to
New Hampshire to meet the party.
He was given a rousing Chautauqua
reception as he took the platform, and
well pleased the big audience. Jumping
at once into the meat of his address he
devoted most of the time to the Warnes
tax law, the new school plan and good
roads. He was warmly applauded by
the many ladies present when he told of
the intent of the new mothers pension
law. He said that there was no reason
why the tax rate should not be material
ly lowered and believed that most of the
county taxing officials would endeavor to
make big cut in the rate. He gave
figures to show that Mercer County
would save from S165 to 50, 900 under
the new school plan, and at the same
more than double the educational eff
cheney of the schools. He had a word in
favor of good roads, which he said were
3 necessary adjunct to higher educa-
tional advantages.
Governor Cox and Mr.. Hogan left i'm
mediately after the meeting for Russell
Point where they addressed big meet
ing of Democrats last night.

CHINA FEARS SPREAD
OF WAR TO FAR EAST
Asks United States TO IntGrCHd0
With BeIIigGrSntS.

Washington, Aug. 6.-The govern
ment of China appealed to the United
States to intercede with the warning
powers for the purpose Of assuring the
maintenance of peace in the far east.
While this government has not yet
made its final answer to the Chinese
government, there is every indication
that the Chinese government win be
informed shortly that the United
States does not consider it advisable
or practicable to take the step re-
quested.
1t is possible, however, that the
United States will undertake to make
representations to the European bel
ligerents with a view of securing the
exemption Of the foreign concessions
in China from becoming the scene of
conflict. Provisions in the treaty of
1868 between the United States and
China afford a basis for such restrict
ed representations to the powers by
the United States, but it is not be-
lieved China's broad proposition will
be viewed favorably.

MRS. WILSON
SERIOUSLY ILL
President Is Almost Constantly
at Her Bedside.
INJURED SPINE LAST FEBRUARY

Has Been Partly Unconscious Since
Sunday Evening-Daughters Sum-
moned to White House and Grave
Fears Entertained For Her Recov-
ery-comes at Time When Execu-
tive Is 5urdened With Other Cares.
Washington, Aug. 6.-Mrs. Woodrow
Wilson, wife of the president, Is
gravely i'll, and the deepest concern
is felt over her condition. All the
members of the family have been
summoned to the White House, and
the president upon whom this great
anxiety has fallen at a time when he
is carrying many other heavy burdens,
Is in almost constant attendance at
the bedside. It is admitted at the
White House that a crisis has been
reached in Mrs. Wilson's condition
and that signs Of improvement must
come quickly.
An illness brought on by a fall
which Mrs. Wilson had in the White
House last February has been contin-
ually aggravated by nervousness and
other complications until now Mrs.
Wilson's strength is at low ebb. Her
condition was described as one due
chiefly to nervous exhaustion and NAL
nutrition. The injury which Mrs. Will
son sustained by the fall last Febru-
airy was to her spine, but It was not
regarded as serious. For the last two
weeks Mrs. Wilson's condition has
been growing steadily worse. On
Sunday night she had a relapse and
since then she has been conscious
only at intervals.
The entire capital, upon which the
news of Mrs. Wilson's condition fell
suddenly, is plunged in gloom. The
gentleness and kindness Of Mrs. Will
sons character and her activities in
social betterment work as well as in
society has endeared her to, many
classes outside Of officials, and the
sympathy for the president and his
family which is expressed comes from
all sections Of the city.
The two elder daughters Of the
White House family, Mrs. Frances
Bowes Sayre, who was at the summer
capital at Cornish, N H., and Miss
Margaret Wilson, who was at POGO
mo, Pa, we're hurriedly summoned
and reached the White House. Since
their arrival they, together with their
younger sister, Mrs. -McAdoo, have
been constantly at Mrs. Wilson's bed
side.
