JUDGE IRA T, ROBINSON BRINGS
THE MOST CHEERING MESSAGE
From the Southern End of the State
Great Meetings Greeted
Him Everywhere.
The Abusive Tactics and the MaIIgn
Forces Back Of CornWelFs
Candidacy Reactlng.

Judge Ira Z. Robinson, the Repubii-
can candidate for governor, was in the
city a short while yesterday, on his
way to Brooke county. Before leaving
Judge Robinson gave The Intelligent
Ger representative who called on nm
a very interesting account OF the SIT
uation in the Southern end OF the
State, where he has been campaigning
for the past week. He brings Il cheer
ful message Of his own and the partyS
prospects in that section. Judge Rob-
inson expressed the greatest satiStac-
ton over the character OF the meet
inss he has had. Where weeks ago
, there was reported 10 be an indiffer-
pnL interest in the election on the part
of the people he found them 10 be
stirred with enthusiasm. Il reaction
evidently produced by the character
OF the campaign that is being WaSed
by the Democrats, and especially the
misrepresentation aud abusive tao
tics employed by the Democratic can
didate for governor.
Il am feeling more confident than
ever over my prospects for election
said Judge Robinson. Il base that
largely on the aroused state OF the
Republican voters wherever l have
been. In Roane county l held two
very enthusiastic meetings which were
largely attended, and the spirit man
fest indicated that the Republicans of
that county were aroused and would
turn out in even more than the usual
numbers at the polls on Nov. T.
Continuing, Judge Robinson stated
that there was distinct reaction Of
the peculiar campaign of abuse which
Mr.. COrnwell and his sponsor, Clar-
'ence w. Watson have been engaged
IN. 1T is impossible, said Judge
Robinson. that the people Of the
state should fail to realize the selfish
character Of the interests behind the
candidacy Of the Democratic candt-
and are learning that this campaign
is being financed BY the most corrupt
combination that has ever existed in
this state, by men who have not hest
lated to debauch the ballot. to de-
bauch legislators. and 10 use their
money for any possible purpose and
in any possible manner that would en-
able them 10 control legislation for
their own benefit.
The men who are now backing
CornwelIs candidacy are the men who
so ViciouSly fought the workmcn's
compensation law in this state. They
are the men who mutilatcd that law
so that they were relieved for Two
years from paying their fair share Of
the worklnen'S compensation charge.
Ther have tried to prevent adequate
appropriations for our asylums and

pose is 10 exploit the natural wealth
Of West Virginia, wiring the last dol

the city, OR which would have a degrad-
ing effect upon the lives and morals of
the young people, has been driven from
the community, so far as the courts and
laws of the land have authorized.
We are forced to believe that the re-
suits of the last city election show con-
clusively that some people in Zion City,
who are not nominally connected with
us, no longer feel desire to oppose and
combat the Theocratic rule in the lives
and the affairs of it's citizens. Indeed,
we are constrained to believe that some
of these persons, down in their inmost
hearts, have only kind wishes for a peo-
pie who are seeking the welfare and up
lifting of humanity, and who are striv-
ing to uphold the standard of purity, and
maintain the highest principles and
ideals.
Zion City was founded in order to af-
ford place of refuge, where Gods peo-
pie could come and rear their families

ZION WINS SWEEPING VICTORY
BY OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF Sly
LARGE MAJORITY EVEN IN MOST CLOSELY
CONTESTED WARD-NO OPPOSITION
IN SCHOOL ELECTION

At the city election held on last Tues
day, April 18, for various aldermen OF
Zion City, Zion won by the overwhelm-
ing majority of $40. This decisive vic
tory by the Theocratic party shows con-
clusively that Zion is in full political con-
troll Of the city's municipal affairs.
The Theocratic majority in last years
city election lacked considerable of being
SO large as in this, Notwithstanding the
fact that the opposing faction had at
that time failed to meet certain legal re-
quirements, and was therefore not en-
titled to place on the ticket by the legal
authorities, who had the right to pass
upon the matter For this reason, there
fore, persons opposing the Theocratic
ticket were compelled to write the names
on the ballots, of the persons for whom
they were voting, and it was claimed by
Zion's opponents that this had dis
couraging effect upon the other side,
causing many people to remain away
from the polls who would otherwise have
exercised the franchise.
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1916-04-22

This year, however, Zion's opponents
had a full ticket in the field, with every
chance to show their full political
strength. For this reason, the results
show the greatest victory ever scored by
the Theocratic ticket in Zion City.
One would think that this overwhelm-
ing defeat of Zion's opponents, would
sound the death-knell of all political op-
position to Theocracy. \
Zion believes in the rule of God in
municipal affairs, as we'll as in the hearts
and lives of men and women. The past
three years of Theocratic rule have
shown that Zion stands for clean city,
in the highest and truest sense of the
word. Rowdyism and lawlessness have
become practically thing of the past,
and men, women and children, as they
walk the streets at any hour OF the day
or night, feel sense of perfect security
and safety. Everything that is harmful
or injurious to the business interests of

away from the communicating influences
of the world In building the city, it
was intended to show what could be done
by Christian people who were willing to
put selfish motives and desires in the
background, and give their attention to
the establishment of a city which would
be an object lesson to the world. People
came here from all parts of the earth,
some of them for a distance of 10000
miles, to be away from the damning
vices and influences to which they had
been accustomed.
It would therefore seem that people of
honor and principle would hardly care
to remain in city built for a purpose
with which they have no sympathy, and
in which they are hindrance by at
tempting to stand in the way of Gods
work.
No one can defeat Gods eternal pur-
poses. Just so surely as God ordained
and founded Zion, will the work go for

INDICTMENTS BROUGHT IN VEL
LAND CANAL CASE

What is said to be one of the most in
teresting conspiracy trials in the history
of America, has developed in the case of
Captain Hans Tauscher, charged by the
United States government with having
conspired to wreck the Welland Canal
in Canada.
Tauscher was arrested in his elabor-
ate office, in New York City, on March
30, and is now out on $4,000 bail. He
has been under observation by the Secret
Service agents for many months.
On April II, the Federal Grand Jury
indicted, besides Tauscher, Captain
Franz Won Papen, recalled military at
tache to the German embassy at Wash
ington, Constantine Govani, Alfred J.
Fritzen, and Wolf Won Igel, secretary to
Won Papen.
Federal officials do not expect to bring
Won Papen to trial, as he is no longer
member of the German embassy staff,
but the indictment will be held in abey-
ance in case he should ever return to
the United States.
Wolf Won Igel was arrested on April
18, after lively fight, in which he at
tempted to conceal certain embassy
papers in his possession. The German
embassy Immediately demanded the re-
turn of these papers and documents.
Counselor Polk, of the State Depart
ment, to whom the representations were
made, at once advised the Department of
Justice to return the papers, and give
Won Igel his freedom, unless the offense
alleged against him was committed be-
fore he became member of the embassy
staff
Assistant United States Attorney
Roger B. Woods, announced on April 19,
however, that he had received instruc-
tions from Washington to proceed with
the case, just as if no protest had been
made by the German Ambassador, over
the seizure of the papers; furthermore,
the papers will not be restored.

Houses of Congress, to hear message
from President Wilson on grave inter-
national issues, the United States Senate
hastened completion of an army reor-
ganization bill, on the night of April 18,
amid scenes Of excitement, which would
create a regular army, and reserve mill
tary forces in the United States aggre-
eating 100000 men. The measure was
carried without the formality of roll
call.
The bill makes provisions for regu-
lar standing army, with a peace strength
of 250,00O men. It also retained, after
close fight, the plan for a federal vol
unteer army reserve force, calculated to
aggregate 261,000 men, and federalize
the National Guard forces Of the states
at an estimated strength of 100000 men.
In addition to this combined regular and
reserve force of 791, 900 men, an amend
ment was passed to create a school and
college youths reserve corps, in time of
war or threatened war. This would re-
cruit force of from 100000 to 100000
trained young men, schooled by officers
of the regular army
