EYESIGHI
Destroyed When Hook Struck
Mans Optic

A hook swinging in the dark struck
the left eye of B. J. Larry late Mon
day evening in a gas field, six miles
north of this city, and hooked out the
pupil. leaving the man in a terrible
condition of acute pain.
Larry was speeded to this city in an
automobile and surgical attention
rendered very promptly. It was i'm
possible, however, to do more than
relieve the intense pain caused By the
accident and Larry must lose the
sight of this eye.

sion has been created by the Willis
legislature with power to erect new
office building near the capitol or en-
large the latter so as to house the var
ious state departments now located
outside the statehouse, and pay for the
same out of the interest now being
earned by state funds.
This action suggests two inquiries:
First. How much interest will a
deficit earn?
Second. To what use will the new
building be put when Governor Willis
brings into the statehouse all the out
side departments in keeping with his
campaign promises?
President w. o. Thompson, of the
Ohio State university board of trus-
tees, refers to the political mess at the
university by saying there aint no
such thing" And in reply to the cri-
icism of certain representatives of the
state grange, PreXy Thompson says at
a meeting in June all will be told.
Perhaps, then, too. he will tell how
he worked at Washington to take
away fom rthe agricultural commits
sion OF Ohio the federal extension
work, why now there are no more
county agents, and how thereby he has
endangered the federal aid to agricul-
tural extension in the state, which
in three years should be annually
$175,000 In this connection it may be
interesting to know that federal agri-
cultural representative who called
here some time ago to learn why Ohio
had no state leader to represent the
tional meeting called in the east,
learned that it was due to the fact
that Governor Willis disapproved the
selection made of one of the profes-
sors in the agricultural college, and
that because President Thompson
could not go himself, no one was al
lowed to go.
The June meeting of the Ohio State
University board of trustees should be
but it won't. If it did President
Thompson would hunt for another job.
The coal operators want Willis to
sign the Gallagher bill, as they say he
promised to do. The coal miners want
Willis to veto the Gallagher bill as
they say he promised to do. No won
der he wishes he might be attending
the fair!
Here is what the progressive and
worthwhile Youngstown Vindicator
says of "The Republican Record: "
"The Eighty-first general assembly
has recessed, having about closed its
labors after four months during which
more than thousand bills were intro
duced and the majority representation
acted in such manner that the party
responsible for it called loudly for
early adjournment and an end of leg
islative attempts. Appropriations were
made amount to over forty-six million
dollars, far in excess of former assem-
blies, even of the Democratic assem-
bly, which preceded this and which was
charged in the campaign by the Re-
publican organization as being extrav-
agant This record shows that the
charge of extravaganza, like many of
the Republican charges during the
campaign, was not honest and was un-
fair to the voters of the state. In the
campaign Frank b. Willis, who profit
ed by the misrepresentation of his
party's campaign committee, proclaim
| ell far and wide over the state that il
elected he would keep hands off the
legislatures work, but before the leg
lslature got through his campaign

OPPOSES A TARIFF BOARD
Secretary Redfeld Says His Depart
ment Can Get Needed Facts.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The admins
tration is opposed TO the creation of a
tariff commission, believing that the
Bureau Of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce Of the Department of Commerce
is vested with sufficient powers to OBJ
tain all information on the cost of
production in the various industries
that may be desired.
The opening gun in the fight has
taken the form of letter addressed
TO President Wilson by Secretary of
Commerce Eedfeld in transmitting the
report on the cost of production of
women's muslin underwear. This let
ter was made public to-day with the
approval of the White House.
Secretary Redheld writes that the
report "has special interest because
Of the agitation for a tariff commission
based upon the alleged need of some
additional means Of information on in
dustries and other matters that may
be affected by customs duties. All nee
sssary powers for obtaining informa-
ton on industrial subjects Of the kind
are now by law vested in the Bureau
Of Foreign and Domestic Commerce.
The extent to which information re-
specting the cost Of production Of man
ufactures is determined and pub
lished depends on the appropriations
made available for that purpose. The
bureau has a competent, trained staff,
and can enlarge its operations as far
and az fast as funds permit

LA TOILETTE AIDS SHIP MEN
Protests to State Department Against
Communicating of Hooking.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Senator La Fol-
lette. Of Wisconsin, went TO the front
to-day for the American Transatlantic
Company, suspected of being under
German control. lie registered q pro-
test at the State Department against
the alleged communicating Of the
Hooking and the Genesee, simultane-
ously with the attorney OF the COM
pany, Walter S. Field.
The department was informed by the
American Consul General az Halifax
that the Hooking had been requisi-
toned by the British government. No
action will be taken until reply is
received from London to the protest
forwarded on Tuesday through Ambas-
sador Page.
No official confirmation OF the COM
Wandering of the Genesee at Santa
Lucia has been received. Mr. Field
showed Counsellor Polk telegram to
his company declaring that the Cen
esee had been taken over by Great
Britain, and that security Of $4,000
had been deposited with the prize court
at London pending the courts decision
on the ownership Of the vessel.
Senator La Follette's interest arises
from the fact that Richard Wagner,
president of the company, is from Mil
waukee, and that other Wisconsin men
are stockholders. The State Depart
ment is inclined 10 believe that Great
Britain has a good case against the
Transatlantic Company, but objects TO
the Communicating of the vessels with
out a prize court condemnation.

EX.MESSENGER BUYS
$4,000 CHANGE SEAT
Curb Broker Makes Fortune in
Kennecott Copper.

William F. Stafford, q curb broker,
who began his Wall Street career
eleven years ago as messenger boy,
has made so much money that he has
been able to buy seat on the STOCK
Exchange, thus realizing his most cher
ished ambition. He bought the member
ship of Henry F. Haines for S72,OOO,
which is less than half Of what he is
reported to have cleaned up in Midvale
Steel and Kennecott Copper, as a spe-
cialist in those stocks.
If Stafford is elected to membership
in the exchange it is his intention TO
organize a new brokerage firm, of which
he will be the floor member. Stafford
lives in Brooklyn and has a wife and
two children.
1t Is said that other curb brokers are
preparing to graduate from the outside
market and seek election to the big
board"
Clifford Hemphill, son of Alexander
J. Hemphill, chairman of the Guaranty
Trust Company, also has purchased
seat on the exchange, the amount being
the same as that paid by Stafford. This
price of $4,000 compares with the last
previous sale at $73,500, and high for
the year thus far Of $4,000
Those who were elected members Of
the exchange at a meeting of the board
of governors were George b. Post, Jrp
and Pliny Fisk.
