Trio Endeavoring to Settle an old Score with The Herald.. r While.the fight forvillage clerkship still hangs in a balance It seems that there will be no election for this office imder Secretary'of State Laylin’s rul- ' jng. Springfield, having a similar case with a Democrat city.auditor; the Republicans-have hired one of the best attorneys in the city to prepare papers and file a-teat case in the Su­ preme Court, The ruling is( said to be opposite to tfie law governing such cases in county offices. . New Carlisle has a clerk,fight and all these capes will be governed- by the Supreme Court’s decision. As for the local fight between J , G, ■ McCorkell and S. Ct Wright inwhich the Andrew-Ridgway-Jackson gang wade an effort to force the’former out. ’ of the' race in' favor of the latter"there has been considerable' interest as it has beeome a question as to. whether three renegade politicians are to . dic­ tate ns to,who shall have the public offices.,*' When public, positions are to he sold they should go to the highest ‘ bidder and, the receipts placed in the public funds and hot go to the one or two men who live a t :the expense of the public as has been .-Mr, Jack- son's ease. The name of Jackson in ,, politics has'been before the people of this township since the days of' “Old . Hie) pry?' 'He has been like a Jeaeh • always"found nourishing at .the public teat. I f it is necessary from a charity sense of yiew then he should be pen­ sioned and cared for at the expense of the public. / The fight for clerkship was not sp much, as to who held the office, but whether the gang could .control the mau.or not. The gang has a score to settle with the HEiunD'and a plan wjf&Tard to knifo us* Thff conditions upon ‘which Mr. -McCorkell was of­ fered the office was that he would re­ fuse to give the HBr,Au> any bf the public printing that; came under his authority. This he/would toot* agree to do. He only would do ns he had done before and that was to divide it - equally. This he told them was the stTaykio, Mo,, In the viciuity of his farm property. He writes to Leslie’s .Weekly; * ’ I like Koosevelt because he is a Re­ publican. I ’m a Republican farmer, 1Ve Farmers are wore interested |n the tariff than anybody else. Themanu­ facturers make our markets, Our only trouble Under a Republican ad­ ministration ' is to' get men enough to’ do our work. ■ ’ I like Roosevelt’s “expansion” idea's. .This Panama Canal business is one of the biggest things this country ever undertook..

I like Roosevelt because he isn’t afraid.'. Mostmen go wrongiu politics because somebody has Beared them, .'Wall street dosen't like- Roosevelt .because ,he dosen’t scare.' The labor Unions, some of them, try to run things by scaring the men who ought to run them. They haven’t scared Roosevelt and they Won’t. I like men who only lair way in any business. The f ... a _*£*L^ n likfi.thal..AnotherPtWBHiPB,JMfo Was that Mr. Wright would, be with drawn if Mr. McCorkell would Only agree that the H erald should not have any of the public work, this only insuring Mr. McCorkell a clear track for the place. Likewise this proposi­ tion was ignored and the bosses flew- into a fit of anger, Informing Mr. McCorkell that Mr. Wright was their candidate and they would elect him with their “ machine.” If Charley, Ridgway, Andy Jackson and Rev* Andrew think for one min­ ute they can silence the H erald by cutting us out Of the public printing they will he badly mistaken. The H eeald is not a bureau for the sup­ pression of news as these men swould " like to have it. They have no use for the newspaper or person that speaks out against them and .their work. Its very probable that we could have had some of the public printing that these men imagine they control if we had not said anything against the saloon Ridgway operates or against the “Grand Duke of Highballton” Jack- son or against Andrew when he work­ ed a deal and fleeced the taxpayers Of the county in having the commission­ ers purchase him some two or three hundred dollars worth of sewer tile and then try to get the trustees and council to lay themand when he found that the tile were to be moved have them laid at his own expense. These St;csome of the things that these men ‘ oppose the H erald for and do you Wtme them? Whenever these men Want to caucus at Charley Ridgwsy’s or in Mr. Wright’s office as was ,done mMr. McOorkeH’a case to plan some way to even up with the H erald , that's their business, hut when it come# to silencing this paper, that’s our business, and We might have tome more to say* PUBLIC SALES.

At.this meeting,.pro- Dr, J . 8, Rutledge, of Cleveland; addressed a large and appreciative audience at the-opera house Tuesday evening, on the “Saloon Question,” The, first part of his' lecture was ,fo Some of the hopeful things^ that were to. be accomplished in the campaign against the saloon. ~His first rules laid down towards 'securing the rewards hoped for was to'keep “ everlastingly ac it”. The siilopn business today is more securely entrenched than ever before and so is the religions* classes more united against the salooq. The present fight against the saloon is all caused from the evil effects of the busi­ ness and rarely is there a case where the fight is against the proprjeler of the place. - 1 • ' • ' Dr. Rutledge showed how the 'differ­ ent commercial corporations were ag/ gigting the work by the enforcement of stringent rales over their men as to drinking whether on or. off duty. “Unity” is the One thing needful among the temperance workers and where this is accomplished victory is almost certain. >^ The tax argument 'so often thrown out by .foe-"wets”,was Well, handled from a moral point of view. ■The press over the country also’ came in for a share of the credit in advancing this work." The daily paper that only, a few years ago was credited on the other side of the question is now in the fight for the enforcement of such 'laws. ' . >v • , - The local situation' wag touched upon by the speaker as to the enforce­ ment .of the law and; the- voters were asked'inn very earnest manner to re­ fuse, to sign1 a petetion ‘ asking for. an- other-election under-fhe Beal law. The saloon in politics and what the politician wants the saloon for was well explained and came dose to gome local situations. " The professional office seeker always seeks the saloon influence’and seldom is he able to fill the place after he is elected.

MUCH DISTURBANCE, The conduct of a number of hoys, unaccompanied by tbeir parents, at the opera house Tuesday, evening and the absence of an officer, was the sub­ ject of much comment. It has been the custom of late fora number of boys to be continually running in and out during a speaking or lecture course number, much to the annoy­ ance of the audience. - The speaker Tuesday night was foterupted several times, having, to stop and call the youngsters to order. The corporation is supposed fo have officers to see that the peace is kept in a public building tho satfta as on the street but this fans not been So for our officers pay little attention to the town hall. Of course they may be found on bsndl if a few sharkers With a niedicine show have the hall rented. The public has waited for some time hoping that this mhttcr would be looked after* An other thing must he called to the at­ tention of the trustees Is that on this same evening only one of the front doors was unlocked and open, some­ thing that is in direct violation of the law.

Well, I asked her the other day tlie secret of it, and her answer was: ‘Linseed oil and elbow grease, A very little of tho former and as much of the latter as I can get.’ “She said that primarily the floors were treated to a thin coat of oak stain, then oiled, as little oil as was practicable being applied, but Well rubbed in and always with the grain of the wood. ,-She never oils oftener than once a month, and each oiling is preceded by a spong­ ing with warn; Suds, which prevents the wood becoming, too dark and re moves any dust which may have ad­ hered to the floors.

' The charge to the pastor was de­ livered by Rev. Turner; Df. McKin­ ney delivered the charge to the people. Among the many excellent things he said refered to the pastor in his boy­ hood days, having jviBited his home. I t was on this occassion -that the speak hr found that the buy bad unusual tallant as an artist and he remarked that he should be a preacher and use his drawings to illustrate his sermons. The next time the two met wna at the seminary and the incident was readily recalled; ' Rev. Henry then informed Dr, McKinny athat,, his, suggestion years before had had' much to do with him making the ministry his life work. After singing the 133rd psalm the benidiction was , pronounced -by the pastor.

The News is a little late in asking for justice.

E, Kyle had his horse stolen by “Hog Davis, The plantiff says that bo arrested Davis on suspicion but latter he confessed. The case is aeomplroa- ted one from the fact that the local protective assocation had as much to do with the arresting Davis as did the Springfield officer. Had-itnot been for the assocation the police Would not have ever known that the man was in Springfield at the time the arrest was made. NO O IL NEWS.
