Upon motion of Pollock second­ ed by Caldwell It was decided not to enlarge on the boundary of the corporation, Mr.Pollock stated that it would not be to the financial and social,interests to*take in the prop etfcyas suggested by the Board of Trade. Member Ball thought that if these people wanted fire protee- tion.and light they should have no objections to paying their share of it. As matters now stand the pe6 pie in the corporation are being . taxed to.maintain a.fire department 'that is used by outsiders. ,Tbis the 'speaker did not think was entirely . fair to the tax payers and that the , chief of the fire department should be notified hot to. take the apparatus out of town. ■, The finance committee reported the levy for the coming year. The levy was made on a tax duplicate of ' $331,000and includes the special levy of three mills for electric lights ns . authorized b,v the lastelection.

Speedy dissolution ot the republic in the event o f ,.the °nomination of Taft and tho triumph of bis methods is the joint conclusion arrived' at by John Bryan of Yollow Springs -and Probate Judge Marcus Slump of Xenia. • Mr. Bryan spent Saturday night at the Bookwalter hotel. In. the course of a discussion of tho politl cal situation, 'Mr. Bryan gave out the correspondence between him­ self and Judge Shoup, in which gloomy forbodings are voiced m de­ spairing strains. * " By way of explanation, it may be stated that Judge Shoup went to Chicago as aForakor delegate from the Sixth district, as most readers of these columns know, and lie got half a vote in the convention by grace of the national committee. Although ho farecTbetter than prac­ tically every contesting Foraker delegate in the convention, Judge Shoup is not disposed to be grateful for the bone so "'generously fiung at him. * - Succinctly pessimistic is tho fol­ lowing epigramatic telegram: Junedl, 1908. . Judge Marcus Shoup, Foraker Headquarters, Great Northern Hotel, Chicago, 111,: • Taft can’ t carry election in Ohio nominated by delegates appointed from' Washington. Taft’ s nomina­ tion means Bryan’ s election. It took Borne 300 years to die. We shall die in 80 years under Boose- velt and Taft. JOHN BBYAN. This message struck tho judge ajfc a moment when he \jras In need of cheer. Its motive of hopelessness found the unusually genial jurist in a sympathetic mood. Judge Shoup dictated the following: Midnight, June 11, 1908. Hon. John Bryan, Yellow’ Springs, Ohio; My Hear. Mr. Bryani1 ,, Your telegram just received, with its contents X fully agree* " it is the belief of. many men her* that a great calamity is about to befall the republic. Many of the leading men of the party hap*, tegum-fps feoa; «!y and frantically every inch of the ground, but It paem* to be of no avail. The action of the national committee has degenerated int* a farce. When they hear a .case, be­ fore -they decide it, they telephone “ Rao«*velt” before d*o ding. It has come to be known as the “ tele­ phone convention.” 1attributemy escape to the forc­ ible and frank manner in which I presented my case. No form of government can long survive such administrations as thispresent one. » . Yours Truly, MABCUS SHOUP; Mr. Bryan stated that in the event, of the nomination of Taft he will tako the stump for William Jen- hirtgs Bryan, Tho Bryans are cousins, but the Ohio man lias never been a supporter of the Nebraskan. So strongly convinced, however, is lie that the methods of Booseveli .andTaft and their friends are sub­ versive of the best Interests of re­ publican government, that he will throw his whole soul’into th* effort to defeat the Republican nominees.. Judge Shoup has always been of the school of republicans who have Stood unflinchingly and eternally fora “ straight ticket” and party regularity has been the watchword of the Greene county organization which ho has virtually headed fora decade. His future course during the campaign, in the event of Taft’s nomination, will be subject of inter­ ested Observation,—SpringfieldDai­ ly News. CEDAVILE COLEGE Fifteenth year opens Sept. 15.

'She is a clear, forceful, convincing speak­ er She said, “ It is not a question of choice, but of duty for a woman to vote against the saloon. She must hear tho call of God and obey. It is tho woman who goes down Into, the valley of the shadow of death for these boys, and in them we in­ vest the many ways of love and care. Only a toother can tell that boy’s worth; and then to have the saloon, a lcgaliszedlniquity tear him from her; hot strongtowel of hope.” The woman cries Aloud, “ It is omntffe.
