It is stated that M, F* Brantley, who is under indictment for grafting in Columbus has been doing the work of Johnson in dev©' land, The resolution also charged Johnson with protecting gambling and liquor violators for political power and that favoritism has been shown in granting franchises to street car companies. At one time twenty-six wiles of franchise were “ granted by the city council without the people having any knowledge pf tho patne being done, A perpetual ‘ franchise was granted a gas .chlripa- ny controlled by the Standard Oil Company, A belt-line railroad was granted a franchise under suspicious circumstances. This line was pro­ posed and . organized by Senator Charles Dick. Bramley, who is mentioned in the*charges, is the Foraker leader in Cleveland..

Paine on© of the most earnestmembers of the House offer­ ed the hilt to remedy the. troubles ' under the pfesenfc board form. After a long fight the House on Tuesday passed tire Senate bill against slop food from distilleries for cows. The light lasted several weeks and the liquor people made a desperate effort to kill the rijeasure It has beOh claimed that the distil­ lery people attempted' to use undue influence on som© of the members. The doctors andmedical associations wero supporting . the bill and the vote resulted in 67 to 21. The distil­ lery owners took two crowds of Rep­ resentatives to Cincinnati to, in- Bpeottho diaries, They had been scrubbed to shine like a dollar for this occasion but public sentiment strongly endorsed tho measure. On Wednesday by a vote of 19 to 14 thV Seuate reconsidered the B.vyna bill and passed It by *a vote Of 22 ta 15. The House on Wednesday passed the Bronson primary bill as amend­ ed by the Senate. As soon as the measure is signed by the •governor it becomes a law, lb will go into effect on January 1,1609. It is not just wbat the author Intended by a step in the right direction.

In Ibis connection permit mo to ©ay that, that case has submitted fa the court and I feel confident the decision will show that there is nothing in tho claim, Tho Ohio State Board of Agricul­ ture was created in 1836 for th©pur­ pose of promoting th* agricultural interests of tho state, It WAs crea­ ted in the same manner that the Ohio Uniyersity and- tho Miami University wore created. Th©state has the same authority to jyiy these bonds as ft has to appropriate money for these universities And many hos­ pitals and other educational and charitable institutions. They am not private corporations In the ordi­ nary meaning of the term. The policy of the state should be to provide the necessary funds for. the Board of Agriculture to carry on the work which has Men entrusted to it. Th© work of gathering-and publishing the annual agricultural reports and crop statistics; of pro­ tecting the live stock of tho state; of nursery inspection and the pre- Yention of insvcfcpest*; ot conduct­ ing an auhual agricultural exhibit and of conducting farmers* Insti­ tutes are ail matters of vital impor­ tance to the farmers of our state, and the legislature has the clear right toaid this, our most important industry. I shall he glad to defend in any. court your action for I believe the Ohio State BoAtU of agriculture should m every particular bo recog­ nized as a state department. AUTO UPSET.
