RAIDEDSALOONS. j The Xenia police raided practically -every saloon in that city, Wednesday evening. The samples, are to "be an- alized and used as evidence against the proprietors, should they prove to bo intoxicants. The raids were made un­ der the direction of Chiof Smith. The patrolmen went from place to place, causing considerable excitement, es­ pecially when the Commercial and Atlas hotel saloons were being raided, Many of the confiscated bottleB bore beer labels and many, of them had the word “beer” blown’in them. The bottles were from Springfield and Day- ton breweries. All the places raided had recently taken out the Dow tax for soft drinks, supposedly, to cover the sale of the genuiue article. Elva Shingledecker, better known as “Big Kid,” was arrested Sunday -for disturbing the quietude of the vil­ lage Saturday night and was fined $5 and costs, tqd thirty days in the workhouse, the last being suspended on ;his ’promise of good behavior. He attributed his downfall to “Malt Extract.” The Greene County Fair has been quite a success, so far, and the-exhib­ its were never before equaled. The entries of cattle, sheep, horses and hogs passed the expectations of the management and m every respeet the exhibits.in the halls have exceeded these of other years. Thursday’s crowd, regarded as the largest ever on the grounds, was certainly a bummer. The racing was good and, aside from oue or two accidents, went offnicely, A report of the winnings will be given later. Riley’Stormont returned from Sid­ ney, Monday, after a visit with his sister.. ^ Mrs.-Harry Townsly is ehtertaing Mips Zara Burr, of Jamestown, and Miss Ferguson of Sabina.

Bull and sister, Mre. W, J . Marshall, of Xenia, expect to leave next Thursday for Denver and Colorado Springs, whero they will vis­ it relatives tor some time.

There, is a persistent purpose among some Republican politicians to put an Ohio man in the second place on the next national ticket. First - it was Senator Hanna, hut he was so em­ phatic in refusal of any such shelving that those who suggested the “ hoadr” to the great party chief were profuse in protestations that they had no part in such a movement,, and that it was all a scheme of the ‘ wicked Demo­ crats. ' Now the choice is said to He between Gov, Taft of the Pbillippines and would-be Gov, Herrick of Ohio. Should both these decline tbe position some other Ohio raanpf easier dispo­ sition is to be coaxedjnto acceptance The suggestion that Hpraker might be acceptable to RpOBeveft as a running mate meets with no fstvor, .The ques. tion is not so much :,wlint Roosevelt might like as what Will please Han­ na, for it”is intimated' that the selec­ tion of an Ohio-man fhr the vice pres­ idency is designed to insure the domi­ nation in the.administration councils. Hence it must not oilly be an Ohio man but also a Hanna man. These people should, be made to un­ derstand that their e§|rts to degrade Ohio are in vain. ; The • Buckeye state will not take second place to suit the convenience of Gresident Roose­ velt, or Senator Halna, or anyone else. It is first placefr nothing with the state that disputef with Virginia the proud title of “ th^ mother of pres­ idents,” and from Whose citizens a vice president was I never chosen,. Five occupants of the' presidential of­ fice were born in Ohio, Four were credited to this state as residents at the time of their nomination and elec­ tion. William Henry,Harrison was born in Virginia, blit was a citizen of Ohio when elected to the presidency. Rutherford B Hayes Was Ohio born and elected as from Ohio. "Ulysses 6 , Grant was Ohio born, and without a residency iu any other'state at tbe time of his election, James A. Gar­ field. waBOhio born and elected as an Ohio man. Benjamin' Harrison -was an Ohioan by birth apd an Indiuna citizen by, residence,Awkcp elected, William McKinley was an Ohio man birth and residence when he became president, Against this brilliant rec­ ord of Ohio presidents there is but one case of an Ohioan by birth ac­ cepting the vice presidency, and he had crossed over ioto Indiana before doing it. Ho, Ohio is not to step down from the presidency to the lower place. Ho true Buckeye with proper regard for the prestige of his state will con­ sent to the use of his' uame for such a purpose, Mr. and Mrs. J . ,0. Barber leave next Thursday lo r.

Dakota, July 27. Mrs. Matilda M. Boucher, of this place tells how she found a friend, in the following words. “For years I suffered with a dizzi­ ness In my head and could get noth­ ing to cure me until about two years ago, When I was advised to take Dodd's Kidney Pills. These pills cured me before I had used the whole df the first box, and t haven't been troubled since. 0 In January of this year, I had an attack of sciatica that made me almost helpless, and remembering bow much Dodd’s Kidney Pills had done for me before, 1 sent and got some and began to take them at once, “ In three weeks I was well and not a trace of the sciatica was left, t have been well ever since. “Dodd's Kidney Pills have cef- DISTRIBUTING DEROT FOR # “PITTSBURGH'!3RFECT” FENCES.
