by attempting to organize a so-called

Concerning Mack's petitions, the
Cincinnati Enquirer of Sunday re-
marks; "A cursory inspection seemed
to indicate many glaring irregulari-

nomination for governor at tne Au-

COX COMMISSION
A COSTLY AFFAIR
Independent Report Says |
Spends $4,000 Too Much

Columbus, O., Sept. 5.-The report
Of Ernst & Ernst, one of the best ac.
counting firms in this country, to the
effect that the industrial commission,
controlled by Cox hold-over members,
should make a retrencnment of $780,.
coo annually in it's salary payroll. has
created no little excitement in Demo
cratic circles. Leaders of the Cox par
ty are at loss to find an explanation
satisfactory to the people of Ohio
When Governor Cox, in 1913, re-
vapped the commission in order to
oust appointees of Governor Harmon
and make his own control of it sure, no
matter whether he was reelected or
not, he gave as a chief reason the pos.
sibilities of the combination of depart
ments and accompanying retrench'
ment But it is now shown by two in
vestigations the second by an entire
ly independent authority, that no such
retrenchments were ever undertaken
In fact, expenditures continued to in
crease While Governor Willis was
obtaining marked reductions in the
salary payrolls of departments under
his control, exactly an opposite policy
was actuating the still Gox-controlled
industrial commission.
Chairman Yaple even stated, after
the first report, that "he saw no merit
in it and would mash it fiat" Three
of the biggest business men in the
state were then asked to conduct the
second investigation, and their report
row substantiates the first. To break
It's force, some Of the Cox papers have
deliberately falsified their headlines tC
make it appear that Governor Willis
has mad charge of the industrial com
mission. AS a matter of fact, the ex
travagant policy is merely continu
alton by Cox appointees of the eX
travagant and autocratic policies o.
the former administration Two of the
'hrea members Of the industrial aom
mission are Cox arpointees.

Time and Stream resemble each
other in the
"Silent pace with which they steal
away;
No wealth can bribe, no prayers per-
suade to stay;
Both are alike, irrevocable when past,
And wide ocean swallows both at
last.
Though each resembles each in part
A difference strikes at length the mus
ing heart
Where streams abound they never
flow in vain,
They bless the land with fruit, with
plenty strew the plain.
But Time that should enrich the no.

Neglected, leaves dreary waste be-

The Greenville CO., Jour-
nal and It's Times.
BY ISAAC KAY, M. D.

AlJSI oil lllCCl Val VI many ) NoL
l have recently had a pleasing
chance of seeing a copy or tw,
Of the Greenville Journal. Dur
ing the checkered course of hi
younger life the writer of thi
article lived in Ithaca, Dark,
county, Ohio, and he has felt Al
interest in that region of tn,
state ever since. In those early
times when l was in the habit Of
seeing the Greenville journal
the Hon. Hiram Bell was con.
gresham from the Third Ohio
District, Mr.. Taylor editor of the
Journal. and DR.. l. N. Gard, who
died in Greenville a few years
ago at the age of 81 years, was
the veteran physician of his town
and county.
And speaking of the early
Darke county physicians reminds
me to say that the writer's per-
sonal acquaintance and present
memory includes DR.. Rufus Gil
patrick and James G. Blunt of
New Madison, but afterWard of
Kansas; DR.. Thomas D. Stiles,
formerly Of Carlisle, Penn, and
DR.. Curtis Otwell, both then To-
Gated at Fort jefferson: as also
Drs. Robert L. VanHarlingen and
VIM. B. Gray of Ithaca. Drs.
OtWell and Gray came from Gull
ford Court House, a Quaker set

wel nounced antissla avery
sentiment Dr OtweIl being an
out and out abolitionist, as was
also DR.. Gilpatrick, who was an
able public speaker and skilIful
debater.
But it is more particularly of
the Greenville Journal that |
wish now to speak. The friend
ly face of that sterling newspa-
per has been quite familiar to
the people of Darke county for
nearly 85 years. It has never
changed it's name nor even its
letter heading to the writer's
knowledge: nor it's essential po-
litical status. At first, and as
long as that party existed in
American politics, the Greenville
Journal was firmly Wing In
1856, when the Republican party
took it's place, the Journal as
sumed a strong and answering
position in the Republican party
and has continued ably battling
for its leading principles.

career in the year 1882. To this
particular year we wish to call
special attention, and make some
of it's dates and features the basis
of a cast for the Journals horo-
scope. AS in a more supersti-
tiOus age it was the custom to
cast personal nativities by care
fully and critically noting the
appearance of the skies, and
viewing the movements of the
heavenly bodies at the hour or on
the day of each particular birth,
SO in like manner we might now
attempt briefly to set forth those
social and political aspects of the
world WHICH characterized the

judged by the manner in which
it is celebrated. According to
the manner of some it is a day of
orgies, but of this manner there
is and ought to be but few. Up
on the whole, its observance is
in a proper manner. Labor ought
to confer dignits upon mankind
and make every person more
dignified and self-respecting. 1t
ought to inspire US with the de-
sire to be sincere, diligent in
business, temperate in life and
unselfish in our conduct and
treatment Of our fellows. In
this way Labor Day may be made
a benefit and real uplift.
Our village schools begin next
Monday, when the kids and the
larger fellows will gather their
books and school equipment and
HE to the schoolroom and there
try to master the ordinary science
of life and fit themselves for SER
vice for their fellows. May the
young idea learn to shoot in the
right direction and leern to emu

into the significance of contem-
porary historic facts and events.
That is. by human history and
not by astronomy.
The Greenville Journal COM
menced its long and honorable
career with the year 1882, as I
have said. By way of opening
up our theme we shall attempt a
partial reproduction of the times
and characteristic features per-
tanning to the aforesaid year; a
task which may be accomplished,
to a slight extent at least, by
portraying in shadowy outline it's
prominent historic events.
During the year 1882 ore of
the most engrossing matters was
the fearfully destructive preva-
lence of the Asiatic cholera. In
the spring of 1882, Irish emf
grants brought it to Detroit by
way of Quebec. The soldiers 60
ing to the Black Hawk war con-
tracted the disease and spread it
through many of the western
forts. Finally the epidemic reach
ed New Orleans, where 5000
died out of a population of $50
The worst of it's subsequent visi-
tations were in the years 1848
and 1865. The malady proved
fatal to many of the most dis
tinguished persons in our nation.
In the early part of the year
1892 some of themore unenlight-
|ensd and more sllpersti stitious had
scarcely gotten over their scare
from the phenomenal falling
stars Of November, 1881. In
1882 eliminated, in all it's vio-
lence, the South Carolina doc
trine and notification. The great
political leaders of the South had
for years been sowing the seeds
of hatred for federal authority
and the constitution. 1t was
then that President Andrew Jack
son had occasion to cast that
frightful bombshell into the camp
of the conspirators which will
forever be a theme for commen-
dation by the American patriot
and historian. Old Hickory Jack
son, as he was called, arose in all
his majesty and declared that
the FEDERAL UNION MUST
BE PRESERVED" The slogan
of Calhoun and his friends was
that LIBERTY SHOULD BE
PREFERRED TO UNION" But
history has recorded the result
of this contest.
In 1882 Andrew Jackson was
reelected for his second term as
president of the United States,
and Martin VanBuren as vice
president, after having served as
secretary of state during Jack
sons first term.
In 1882 Dom Pedro of Portugal
was enabled, chiefly by means of
a loan from the English, to raise
a fleet and make a landing at a
northern Portuguese port in de-
fense of Donna Maria da Gloria's
claim to the queenship of Portu-
gal.
Immediately before this a per-
iod of indescribable confusion
and misrule had existed. The
mobiles, monks and rabble ruled
