COL. ROOSEVELT WILL
STUMP COUNTRY FOR
NOMINEE HUGHES

Charles Evans Hughes of New York
was nominated for president OF the
United States at Chicago by the Re-
publican party. Charles Warren
Fairbanks of Indiana was nominated
for President.
Mr.. Hughes Immediately resigned as
a justice of the supreme court and his
resignation was accepted by President
Wilson. Col. Theodore Roosevelt was
nominated by the Progressives but re-
fused to accept the nomination. Mr..
Hughes will be acceptable to Col.
Roosevelt and the latter will stump
the country for him. That is the latest
report from eastern political circles.
The platform adopted by the Re-
publicans is acceptable to the rank and
file Of the Progressive party. The Re-
publican party is reunited after four
years of separation. The indications
are that Mr.. Hughes will sweep the
country in 1916 as Col. Roosevelt
swept the country in 1904. Everybody
except the bosses in the two parties
are satisfied with the results of the
convention. Neither the so-called Old
Guard OF the Republican party nor the
politicians of Armageddon were salts
fed, but they will have to make the
best of it,.
Rout for Politicians
The results of the Republican con-
vention spell rout for the Old Guard
who made strong fight to name the
candidate and afterwards to retain con-
troll of the party machinery. They
were unsuccessful The voice of the
people was heard at Chicago as it has
never been heard at national conven-
ton before The nomination of Mr..
Hughes was simply victory for the
common people of the United States
who had demanded Hughes so per-
sistently that the convention did not
dare nominate any other man.

systematized that an actual saving OF
$54, 4,6oO.32 was made during my first
year. All books and records in the
Office are open for inspection at any

If you approve doing the States
business in that manner, | will GER

thusiastic manner. Suggestions and
problems were presented by represent
atives from all corners of the state

that such consideration would be given
before action was taken on the pro
posed readiness-to-serve charge.
Duncan Reviews Case.
Chairman Duncan. in reviewing the
case, stated that the commission was
satisfied the Richmond City Water
Works company was not receiving the
revenue it was entitled to.
He. said there was no disposition on
the part OF the commission to increase
the rates for the small consumers:
that the city officials of Richmond
were strenuously objecting to the mu-
nicipality's contribution to the water
company's revenue, maintaining that
the present rentals for fire hydrants
In Richmond were higher than In any
other city OF the state: and that, in
consequence, the commission had SER
1ousIy considered providing the water
company with the revenue the COM
mission believed 1t to be entitled to
Dy establishing readiness-to-serve
charge on fire protection systems,
charge sufficient to make up the
revenue deficiency
City Attorney Bond, who attended
the meeting. informed the commission
that, in his opinion, the charge pro-
posed was absolutely unjust and that,
furthermore, he did not believe the
water company was entitled to any
more revenue than it is now receiving
w. ]. Hutton, president of the Rich
mond City Water Works company, and
also president of the Hutton Casket
company, was one of the witnesses
appearing before the commission. De
spite his connection with the water
works company he expressed the opin-
ion that it would be unfair to provide |
charge for fire protection systems.
Other witnesses were James A. |
Carr, George H. Knollenberg, Z. M. |
Haas, George Seidel and S. E Swayne
Taxes Pay for Protection.
These witnesses pointed out that !
they were now paying a charge for |
fire protection in the form of taxes, |
and if a readiness-to-serve charge was
they would be paying a !
double charge for fire protection.
They took the position that the |

they made continuous operation of
their factories more certain, and that
the sprinkler system was a benefit
to the city and the community at
large as wen as to their plants.
They held that they should not be
doubly taxed for reducing fire haz-
ards to a minimum, and contended
that If such readiness-to-serve charge
was required the community should
pay 1t.

COUNTY TO BUILD ROADS
COSTING ABOUT $500, 900

At least 100000 in road construc.
tion is being contemplated by the
county commissioners this year az the
result of petitions being presented, de.
handing that the commissioners con.
struct approximately twenty miles of
road under the three-mile road Law.
During the eight years 5000 miles
of road have been constructed under
the three-mile road law. and as a re-
suit. of the sudden desire on the
part of property owners in this county
to build permanent road improve
ments, the amount of road indebted
ness will be approximately doubled,
according to County Auditor Bowman.
According to law, the commissioners
have no alternative and must make
plans for building the roads The
most extensive improvement now pro-
posed is the construction of a con-
crete road from the Wayne township
line to the Henry county line. a total
OF fifteen miles. To illustrate the de-
sire on the part of taxpayers to stand
the cost of the road Improvement, Mr.
Bowman pointed out that large ma
jority Of the property owners signed
the petition.
The total amount spent for road
construction under the three-mile road
law during the eight years is $410,790.
OF this amount 1912 95 is outstanding
and $137,795 has been paid The aver
age cost per mile has been $1,323 1t
Is being proposed to build the new
concrete road at an expense not to
exceed the average cost of macadam
roads in the past

TWO CASES OF DOG
BITES Within THE
PAST COUPLE DAYS

Two cases of "dog-bite" were re-
ported to the police station within the
past couple of days, and arrests of the
owners of the alleged ferocious ami
mails were effected.
Mandy Hudson, colored, arrested
because her dog attacked and bit a
negro boy, was charged with violat-
ing the new "dog ordinance" by keep
ing unmuzzled ferocious animal.
Having confessed to the ownership,
the woman offered to have the dog
killed, and kept her promise, turn
ing the canine over to the police de-
partment, ard IN officer shot the ami
NAL.
Yesterday white boy named Her
cules Marsafes, residing at 200 East
Gregory street, reported he had been
attacked by dog belonging to Capt.
A. Fl. Mcleod. A warrant was made
for the latter, and he appears for trial
at the recorders court this morning
on charge of allowing ferocious
animal to remain at large unmuzzled'
