bility against Woodrow Wilson.
He was considered Ohios best
known Democrat and turned
down repeated efforts made to
induce him to run again for the
governorship. His first major
political appointment came in
1895, when he was made at
torney general of the United

PH|LO PLANT
ADDITION To Be
STARTED SOON

work on the building of the adj
dition to the new Ohio Power Co.
plant at Philo will likely begin next
month. After the construction work
gets under headway it is stated that
a maximum Of COO workmen will be
employed on the job. It is said that
the addition will be completed on
the new unit and will be in opera
ton in the summer of 1928. When
the addition is completed it will be
one OF the largest plants of its kind
in the United States. Approximate-
ly 500 tons of coal are now consum-
ed at the plant during a "a hour
day. When the new addition is in
operation it is stated that it will
consume more than 1000 tons
daily. Only Ohio mined coal will be
used, ana that from mines within a
radius of 40 miles from the plant.

Snow Storm Badly
Curtailed Mail Service

Due to heavy snow, which has
blocked the roads, it has been i'm
possible for many of the r. F. D.
carriers to make their entire trips.
However, all carriers have done
their very best to serve their pat
rons. Because of the inability of
the carriers to make their trips, the
Democrat this week is shy many of
its correspondents good letters.
Mr.. Kenneth Welch, mail carrier
on the Star route from this place to
Reinersville, had an experience Mon
day worth mentioning here. He left
Reinersville with the mail on a sled.
When he reached the Barnesville
pike, he transferred it to an auto,
and brought it as far as Elmer Har-
ris'. Here the road was so badly
drifted that he could make it no
further by auto. On foot he carried
the mail through the deep snow
around the drift, to about the
Charles Beard home, and then tel
ephoned to town for a taxi, which
went out and brought the mail to
the local postoffice. His return trip
was made in similar manner, but
was even more difficult, since the
mail was much heavier.
Many who are not familiar with
the work of r. F. D. carriers have
not true idea of the real hardships
they endure at times in an effort to
serve their patrons.
We may be inclined to feel that
this has been an unusual spell of
winter weather, but we have but to
go back to the winter of 1917-'18,
when during the month of January,
we had ten days which registered
below zero--one night reaching 10
below, with very heavy wind.
Because of the recent snowfall, it
was feared that it might go off with
a rain. in which event high water
here would be certain. However,
the weather moderated without
rain, and for several days the snow
has been gradually disappearing.
