The boss1aud ring rule have been the causa’ftfr much scratching not only in - Ohio but in Pennsylvania, New’ York; and other states. The citizens of New York could no longer endure the op­ pression of the Democratic machine, and' elected a Fusion mayor, while Philadeipia .will?still have to continue .Republican rule that has been so cor* rupt in the Quaker City. These two cities are said" to have been' the most corrupt in the world. Politics had - been -laid aside, the fight' being made on general principals. ' . Richard Oroker, the great Tam­ many leader, says that the people of .this country will no longer be subject to the rule of political organizations, such. as has controlled New York, Philadelphia and other cities for years. We believe this statement correct, for in most every instance where a candi­ date has been under the control of a bosi dr ring the people have laid aside' politics and. hate either defeated such candidate’or attempted to do so. As or Greene county, Nash re* eeived 4,205 while Kilbourne num* . bered only 1,834, giving Nash' a ma­ jority of about 2,300. Local interest centered on the fight .for auditor and considerable work was done by the church and temperance people against Dodds for Auditor. However he came out with a good vote in both precincts. Dodds received 3,465, Mc­ Connell 2,633, giving a majority of 800 for Dodds. Horace Ankeney for Representative and other candidates on the Republican' ticket received the usual majorities.

Last Monday evening as '‘Pomp” Smith was returning from Xenia, driving B, 0 , RidgwAy’s horse and buggy, he met with an accident caused by careless driving by the driver of the vehicle which contained the foot* Jlifll fc . i who had played a game here on that afternoon. They were <Mv* „ ing at a runaway gait down the Bam* uels hill when they met Smith, who Had pulied off to the side of the road to tllow the ri^ to pass. One of the . horses attached to the Xenia rig struck Wmith’s horse and knocked it down, throwing Smith from the wagon. Witnesses who saw fhe.fracas say that the Xenia hoys were driving at full speed and never attempted ■ to leave the center of the road. It is a known fact that when the parties left town the driver was greatly under the influence of liquor, which accounts largely for the mixup, Aside from, the trotting wagon being demolished beyond repair, th'e boys Ctit Mr, Ridgway’s -harness in a terri­ ble manner, in order to give freedum to tlie l.iorse. Mr. Ridgway, upon hearing of the mixup, telephoned Chief Smith of Xenia,'who secured the names of all the parties interested It is very probable that prosecutions wiirtollow.' " ThatSewe^ Commission. The sewer commission of Xenia has met, with another, obstacle and it Wasn’t a money consideration either.'' Peck, Shaffer & Peck, a law .firm of Cincinnati, have called the attention of the- sewer commission to the fact that the steps which have been taken in regard to the construction of the lateral Sewers have been illegal, for the reason that the commission'has no power to act. The consent of the majority of the property owners is necessary, aud this, it is said, will likely ”put;-a "damper on the sewer business until the management of Xenia passes out from under the “ring and the Boss. The property holders in Xenia are a little “shy” of this commission since its. methods were exposed by the court bouse building commissiun, aud some go bo fa r as to-say that it will be al­ most impossible to obtain a majority of the frontage. About the only cost already in­ curred on the lateral work is that for advertisement for bids which nmeunts to about one hundred dollars. This cannot be considered lost* for if it hod not been for sewers it would have been Something else, as so much has to be spent every so often to keep the work of twe “gang” smothered and also ctf^eejij/cei'taiu parties from,using the'slangphrAse, “cliew.-ing-the-rag.” AMONGOUREXCHANGES. Poverty and Piety. A western preacher, whose salary has probably not been raised to make good to him the increased cost o f liv­ ing in' these prosperous .times, in a recent sermon delivered by him ex­ presses the opinion that continuous prosperity is not a good thing for the man on the larm; that money easily made is likely to be foolishly spent and that such ^ condition tends to undermine the moral fiber of the far­ mer. The writer is always and ever an optimist—a looker on the bright side of things and for the best side of his fellows—and so wc cannot .agree with tbia preacher, who reflects a little: of a sixteenth century piety, which advocated the crucifixion of the flesh as the most orthodox method of serv­ ing the Lord, The good things of life are just as much the legitimate rewards of correct living and business intelligence as are failure, poverty and misery the rewards o f shiftless- ness, laziness And lack of busLiSs sa­ gacity. The good things are placed within the reach of every man, if-lie will but make tbe proper effort to win them. Piety is not the legitimate outcome of poverty, for but few peo­ ple are so built that they voluntarily praise God when they are hungry, poor and miserable, The men and women on the farm who today enjoy a financial independence have reached ihismpint only after many long* hard xdffa of toil and struggle. I t Will irtot wreck their future hnpptoe* to enjoy good.croj s and good prices and freedom from debt. It is hard to be a good Christian with only oitashirt and au empty pocketboek.

He got up and lighted a match to investigate and found a burglar in the next room in the coils of the snake,,which had its tail but of the window rattling for the police.” • Here is an advertisement which ap- pearedid a Japan paper; “I am a beautiful woman. My abundant, un- duiiited hair envelops me as a cloud. Supple as a willow is my waist. Soft and Brilliant is my visage' as the satin of the flowers.

It was- Schley who destroyed the Spanish fleet. It was Schley's ship, the Brooklyn, that had the brunt of the fight, and was’ hit by more shots than all the remain­ der of the vessels of the fleet.

The fight in Franklin county on Thomas H. Clark,, the author of the Clark local option bill, overshadowed everything else to tbe county. The saloon men from both parties formed; a strong organization to fight Clark, while the AntbSaloon League per. formed valiant service for the cause. This fight broke oyer party lines and caused,a great .deal* of scratching of ballots. The saloon men went so far as to corral .gangs,of negroes in moms over saloons and attempted late in the day to vote them iu a bunch. The saloon men came out victorious, as Clark suffered U terrible defeat at the hnnds of the ring politicians who were compelled by the saloon, league to take up the fight. ♦; . ...«■■ Saloons Run It Blind. , Section sixty-uine Hundred and forty eight Revised Statutes of Ohio states that whoever sells or gives away liquors, or keeps siich a place open on election day shall .be fined not more tlmn 8100 and imprisoned hot more than ten days. Despite this procla­ mation of Mayor Milligan, of Spring- field, the saloons were open with closed doors, that, is,1 the side and back entrances were open, and in passing one could hear the noise on the inside. . Policemen’passed and re­ passed before these places, apparently not aware that there was,a saloon 'in existence. In fact it is said that .hey dare not make an arrest, - regardless of party, for should such have been done they have "had their “heads chopped,” polUjcaUyspeakimr. Spring- field needs, to pattern alter Cedarville and pass the screen ordinance, then the public will have an opportunity as well as’ officials to know what is going, on in these places.- B. S.

And, unless there is a change of sentiment, the commis­ sion will hereafter be regarded as only a thing of ornament. Its use will Ho longer be required. After spending $30,000 of good money in a cheap' main, the purchase of^an old woru-ou.t farm at an exorbitant figure, salaries to. the board iu violation of jaw and junketing tours nlFover the country they have attempted' to saddle an­ other debt of $30,000 for lateral new- ere. Without knowing, or caring for what they were doing they advertised and-sold--bonds at great expense for that purpose. NowTcomes the solicitor and calls a halt. He fells the com- mission that thing can’t be; done. The* law requires that the laterals shall be petitioned for by a majority of the front feet of the property own­ ers. This has not been done and the chances are that it will not t^e done. The people have seen enough of the work of the commission already to convince them that it will not pay to invest any more money with tho-pres- ent board. By stopping now tbe city will only be out $30,000 If contin­ ued no one will be able to give even a safe estimate of the cost, The Her­ ald will have more to say later ou. In the meantime property holders should sign no petition until they are thoroughly enlightened Upon the sub­ ject.-—Xenia Herald.
