TUESDAYS PRIMARY
Presidential Preference Primary and
Election of State and National Dele
gates Brings Out Light Vote in Ohio
Only 757 Votes on President in
Fulton County.

Early reports from over the State
indicate that only about twenty-five
per cent. of the electors of Ohio par
ticipated in the first Presidential Pre-
ference Primary and the election of
delegates to the State and National
Conventions by the direct vote of the
electors. By the attitude of the peo-
pie OF Ohio it would appear that this
Innovation is rather unpopular and it
is pretty certain that here in Fulton
county if the people could have their
way 1t would be forever abolished.
Several were heard to remark that
they would not vote for a candidate
Tor representative who would not
promise to vote in the legislature to
have the law establishing this primary
repealed. Election Boards in all the
precincts lolled around in the voting
places all day with practically moth
ing to do, and some of them did not
even cast ballot for themselves. In
Lyons precinct there was just one
vote cast; not one of the Election
Board in that precinct voted. Over in
Amboy township there were just seven
votes cast There were 464 votes cast
in the county for Theodore E. Burton
by the Republicans and 293 for Wood
row Wilson by the. Democrats max
ing a total Of 757 votes and that is
practically the total vote cast in the
county last Tuesday. In Clinton town
ship not a single vote was cast by a
Democrat. Following is the count
unofficial, of the Presidential prefer
ence and Delegates at Large, ballots
that were cast in the county. Republi-
can: Burton, 464, w. G. Webster 73.
Delegates at Large: Harding 440,
Proctor 262, Sullivan 242. Willis 405.
Giffin 238, Glaser .138, Tyler 125.

For six weeks Napoleon set his
men to work to build bridges across
the Danube SO that he might cross
and successfully combat the Arch
duke, and by the cleyen ruse, he mar
ched 10000 troops to the opposite
SIDE under cover of the darkness.
AS Charles was strongly fortified at
j Aspern, and was expecting reinforce
ments. Napoleon attacked the village
of Wagraim. in order to prevent the
Two agnies joining forces. Mar
shall Bernadotte opened the fight by
taking the village by storm, but it
was instantly retaken by the equally
courageous Austrians. The Aus
trian drive was now on in full fury,
! and they were fast cutting their way
to the bridges, when the Emperor
! heavy artillery. At the same time
Marshal Macdonald with large body
of infantry, began to roll up the wing
of the enemies army, and when
Charles saw that he could no longer
hope for, reinforcement, he retreat
! ed from the bloody field, beaten.
The Hapsburgs were then only too
glad to come to terms in order to pre-
vent the bankruptcy of their country.
The Emperor Francis was compelled
to pay $16,O0O,000 to France and
agreed to disband half his standing
i army.
j By the same treaty, Napoleon cut a
slice from Austrian Poland and hand
/ ed it to the King of Saxony, while
i other pieces of territory were annex
j ed to Bavaria and Italy. Austria
had paid heavily for her vain attempt
to crush Napoleon while his back
was turned.

many compliments upon the musical
talent displayed. Following are the
words of the song and chorus:
You've heard of bills for Millinery
And bills for women's clothes,
While gas and coal and ice bills
Make the angels lachromose;
There are pork barrel bills in Congress
And dollar bills that fly,
But this "Bill" that we tell of
Has a name that cannot die,
So come and join our chorus,
Sing his praises to the sky.
Chorus
Then here's to you, Bill Shakespeare
In our hearts you live to day,
0, wisest of sages, you'll live for aye
You teach US and inspire us
If we to you are true,
And we love you, bless you. thank you
Then Bill, here's to you.
Don't think US disrespectful,
When we say just what we feel
For we've been reading Bernard Shaw
Whose gospel is "Be Real".
Tho our husbands fume and buster
We just calmly con Bills lore,
And instead of cooking dinner
We send them to the store,
Then of our deep devotion
Need we tell you any more.

WAGRAM CAMPAIGN
Austria Pays Heavily for Crossing
Swords With Napoleon-$1s.OOO 900
Disbanding Half The Standing
Army Besides the Severe Losses of
War, The Price Paid.
By Earle M. Wood.

Austria had massed a large army
ready to strike Napoleon, when he
raced back from Spain, determined to
deal the first blow The King of Sax
ony and the King of Bavaria, who
to add to the mighty troops ready
to add to tire mighty force of French.
Italians, Dutch, Belgians and Ger
mans that he was leading against the
Hapsburgs. The Austrian armies
were under the command of the Arch
duke Charles, and were in possession
OF the fortress of Ratisbon, which the
French moved against. The garrison
made a spirited resistance but they
were compelled to retreat into Bo-
hemia, and the French, quickly over
powering all the minor keys to the
capital, found themselves in possess
sion Of Vienna in Just three weeks.
! But the Austrians who had evacuated
the city had destroyed the bridges
over the Danube, and if Napoleon
wished to crush the Austrian army,
he must bridge the river and march
his troops across.
Operations for crossing the Danube
were made at points near the villages
of Aspern and Essling, and when
about $4,000 French had crossed, the
Archduke hurled his mighty host up
on them to drive them into the river
Marshal Lannes was in command as
Essling, and time and again he beat
off the attacks of the Archduke,
while the village of Aspern was
taken and retaken, first by the EN-
peror, then by the Archduke.
The following day the Austrians
opened the battle with a heavy ar
tillary bon1bardment. The Emperor
sent for re-enforcements and, under
standing that they were, coming, he
ordered Lannes to direct a mighty
drive at the Austrian center. But
the Danube had risen and the re-
Inducements could not cross, and as
the Austrian attacks grew fercer, he
was obliged to order retreat.
AS the French vwer'e re-crossing
to their main army, few under Mar
shals Massena and Lannes held the
foe at bay. The latter had thir-
teen battle wounds, when shot car
ried away both his legs and he was
carried to the rear dying.
