This was the only office where the m em -; boro divided on the factional order, The fight a t the la st was between Robert Qilsoiif of Jefferson eoqnty and Andr.ew Jackson, of Greene ©ountyj he hav ing held th e piace i’o r a number of years. B.eckettp the Franklin county candidate with­ drew on Saturday before the caucus fn favor o f Gilson, -Both Jackson and Gilson have claimed for weeks th a t ©noli had enough to win. Poli­ tics was played as i t never was be­ fore and Jackson had a fight sim i­ lar to Herriolc in the last campaign; a thousand and one charges placed against him. The resu lt of this fight shows t h a t . men th a t want public office must be one place or another. Jackson has played double for some years between th©,Foraker and Dick ‘factious. Originally he was a Foraker admirer and trained in his camp, but when he saw. th a t Hopna and Dick wer© mustering up j a powerful organization he jo ined ! these forces. The Foraker m©n| never forget these tricks neither do they loose flight of What a m an does a lte r he leaves their camp. Once into the Dick camp Jackson has .made good with them until of late, when lie began to straddle and was called onto the carpet for his actions a t a primary when the orders had been ■ issued to have, no trouble whatever. Then to m ake . matters worse his p redne tw en t against H errick by 19 votes and the Djclc people cut him adrift, The n ex t move was to. get a man for his place and the Dick forces united on Gilson. Gilson also had the strong support of the Anti- JSaioon league, which in.ils self Was enough to defeat; ’Jackson .' The Foraker forces were appealed.to by Jackson and sweet things pu t. into tfio ©aira of these -men-which ap* pearantly made him as strong as ever. B u t revenge was sweet and the Forakerltes sacrificed the place as an object for Jackson and any other than m ight attem p t to do the sarno thing. After tiie, caucus the Democrats claimed th a t Jackson wanted to make terms .With them on the Sergeant-at-Arms and take -enough Republicans to select a man "for th is place on tho floor of the House.

Tiie members have about united on tins measure despito-party lines. Sergeant- at-Arms Gilson h a s named his list of porters for the House.

The upper branch of the legis­ lature has. never been opened by prayer and Senators Hypes, Drake and Lamb were appointed, by a committee to arrange for a cliaplln.

The bill takes effect May 1st, 1906. Governor H errick has about 70 re­ cess appointments, to be confirmed * by the new Senat©. As this body is Democratic It is not likely th a t the appointments will be confirmed. There are a number of fa t jobs in Jhe lists; oil,, inspector, state fire ' marshal, public printer, and a nu'm- ber of others. There was’ one- ap ­ pointment sen t to ,the Senate, by Governor H e rrick . th a t may go through and th a t was the name of O* E , Bradfuto, as a member tii the Ohio State University Board.
