Republican Convention DeadOcked

during which four ballots General
Leonard Wood maintained a lead over
his two closest opponents, Governor
Lowden and Senator Johnson.
The ballots taken Friday night re-
suited as follows so far as the three
foremost candidates are concerned:
First Ballot - Wood 2S71a; Lowden
PLY; Johnson 1884,.
Second Ballot - Wood 2SS1a; Low
den2591s; Johnson 147.
Third Ballot - Wood 303; Lowden
2S21s; Johnson 14S.
Fourth Ballot - Wood 3141a: Low
den 2S9; johnson 1401S.
During Friday evening there was
much mixing up of the candidates and
their managers and many rumors were
afioat. One which gained much mo-
mentum among the visitors was that
because of the apparent deadlock be-
tween the three foremost candidates.
there would be a compromise candi-
date picked which upon the opening of
the convention this morning could
unite the factions. Senator Warren
Harding was mentioned as the one
man who could do this and the open
ing of the convention this morning
was awaited to see just what rumor
of this sort would amount to on the
floor of the convention at the ballot
ing of the states.

COWDREY MUST SPEND
LIFE IN PENITENTIARY
Former NeighbOr Convicted of Com
plicity In Murder Loses In
Big Legal Fight.

William Harrison Cowdrey, former
resident of Brown county, must spend
the remainder of his life in the state
penitentiary on his conviction of sec
ond degree murder, as a result of the
action of the supreme court Tuesday
in refusing to review his case. Cow
drey, a Butler county farmer was con-
victed of assisting Mrs. Lorel Ward
low in poisoning her husband, who
lived on a neighboring farm, in Feb
ruary, 1917. Mrs. Wardlow was con-
victed and sentenced to life imprison-
ment in the reformatory at Marysville.
She later became insane and is now
confined in the hospital at Lima
Cowdrey obtained a writ of habeas
corpus from the common pleas court
of Franklin county, after incarcera-
ton in the penitentiary, Judge f. B.
Kinkead granting the writ. This was
reversed by the court of appeals, how
ever, and the supreme court, by refus-
ing to review the case, upholds the
lower court.
Cowdrey has a wife and two chill
dren.

Mr.. EARL DRYDEN
BROWNS IN THE OHIC
RIVER LATE FRIDAY
Young Mail Carrier, Unable to Swim,
Jumps Into Deep Hole of Water
and Young Friends Are
Unable TO Save Him.

Earl Dryden, son of Mrs Allie Dry
den, of Forest avenue, driver of Mays
vile Rural Route No /, is the first
drowning victim of this district, hav-
ing met his death in the Ohio River at
the foot of Cottage street late Friday
evening.
Young Dryden with a number of
younger boys had been in the habit of
bathing at this place most every after
noon. Dryden did not know how to
swim but was very anxious to learn
and most every day he spent some time
in the river. The smaller boys in the
crowd were mostly good swimmers
and a number of them were treading
water directly in front of the house
boat lying at the foot of this street,
upon which Dryden was standing. 1t
is supposed that he thought the water
was not very deep at this point and he
jumped into the river. AS he arose to
the top of the water he struggled as
u llc MGlc anu SOllit vi luG
boys became very excited and started
to yell for help. Two small boys in a
boat threw both of their oars to him
but he could not grasp them and he
sank again. The next time his head
barely reached the top of the water
and several of the smaller boys made
an effort to reach him but they were
unsuccessful
The cries of the youthful bathers at
tracted many to the shore and the body
was recovered within a few minutes
with the assistance of a pole. Drs
Howard and Mcclure had been sum-
moned and were on hand when the
body was brought out but they were
unable to restore life.
Mr.. Dryden was 81 years of age and
most exemplary young man. Prob
ably there is not a young man in
Maysville of a more stainless charac-
ter. Upright. honest and religious, he
had great hosts of friends. He was a
licensed preacher of the Methodist

COUNCIL TAKES Time
TO SEE where they
ARE ON SCHOOL LEVY
Is Maysvllle Third or Fourth Class
Cltyl-That's the Question
Which Council Asks City
Attorney to Answer.

The meeting of City Council Friday
evening adjourned without the tax levy
for the new fiscal year being made and
with several great big questions be-
fore the City Dads which are to be an
swered before they act in the matter
of levying the tax for next year.
When Chairman Smith, of the Ways
and Means Committee, offered an ord
nance fixing the levy at $1.55 divided
into 1S cents for bonds, 20 cents for
schools and 67 cents for city operation,
there was a general discussion in
which practically every councilman
expressed himself as being strongly
opposed to increasing the tax levy un-
less absolutely necessary. In the gen
eral discussion the City Board of Edu-
cation came in for a good deal of crit
icism of the manner in which they
have spent their funds. In this dis
cussion it developed through City At
torney DAILY that If Maysville was a
lOuA III Ciaoo ClNg lhC 1bOdih VI
tion could demand any funds that they
though necessary to operat the schools
but that if we were a third class city
so cents was the limit of taxation for
schools.
This brought up the question of
whether Maysville was a third or
fourth class city.
1t was then suggested that the city
place its tax levy at s1.50 divided into
so cents for schools, 75 cents for city
operation and % cents for bonds. 1t
was suggested that under this plan the
city would have sufficient funds in the
! general fund to turn over to the Board
of Education If they should go to court
and force the city to pay them the 40
cents they are asking and would at the
same time give an opportunity for the
courts to decide whether Maysville
was in the third or fourth class. After
considerable discussion on this ques-
tion it was discovered that the city
could not levy a tax of 25 cents for
bonded Indebtedness as the city did not
owe that much and as fourth class
city the city cannot levy over 70 cents
for general purposes.
1t was finally decided to take the
matter under further advisement and
the Council adjourned to meet at the
call of the Mayor after allowing City
Assessor Harney's annual salary Of
$3.50.
