CHANCEFOR A LOCALFACTORY, The proplo of thiu vicinity that have capital to invent need not loo’; to out ratio interests for thero is ■within th«‘ township tho owner of an invention tha t lias the proopecto of a great future. This Is none other than tho loch nut and bolt invented y Mr. I>. NrT u’box . Cedarville has stiven to interest Outside capital in locating here and has offered tho ■ale of stocks, bonds, and even sites, yet wo are still hoping th a t tho future has something great in store for no. Knowing that ail gieafc concerns started in a small way a t one time, it has appeared to tjio writer that there should be investigation on the pa rt of the Board of Trade as to two patents tha t Mr, Tarbox holds. About three years ago Mr. Tarbox received a patent on his bolt and nu t loch and.a dozen of them were made and placed on the 1 ’, O. O. & St, I*, railroad through here. We learn th a t Mr Cotterell has made affidavit th a t these twelve nuts have not moved one-hundreth of an inch The other paten t covers a putty knife. W ithin the past month a Chicago company, incorporated a t $ 200 , 000 , has made overtures to the owner for the purchase of nis patent out­ right and it is said th a t the tempt­ ing offer $5,000 has been made, or a gum neat' this amount. Ttuis same company was organ-* ized to manufacture a nut lock and $ 100,000 was spent on a plant and $50,000 in advertising and getting the article-on the market But it was found tha t Mr, Tarbox held a patent was better than the one they owned and correspondence was en­ tered into for the purchase of the of the Tarbox rights. The patent held by the ■'company was no good for railroads but foun ’ satisfactory for buggies and automobiles, Vhilc the Tarbox paten t is especially for railroads. .. I t is said th a t Mr. Tarbox does [not tto iro to sell ■oufright bu t its. i ■ holding for a royalty, thinking that [th is will in t -him a grei • income, j jTho Chicago p^oplo base imt yet ;agreed to thin and want exclusive •ownership proving th a t they see Igreat prospects ahead. l j On Tuesday Mr. T. N . Tarbox j was before the Dayton Chamber o f , Commerce wince a committee. isj taking up tho project and an answer is expected by Saturday as to wliat Dayton will do. Mr. Tarbox, the owner of the patr-nt naturally desireo to favor hie home town if possible bu t will ho compel­ led to go to some neighboring city if local people ao not care to becomo interested, AVhen a company or­ ganized for tho manufacture of not locks does not offer to pay a royalty it has tho appearance of being a safe proposition. There is no need of going away from homo for insdustrioB wnen they are already in our midst v ith- other towns making tempting offers to take them from ,us. Cedarville cannot afford to loose this enter- prize without an investigation any­ way. ' f JMinflammatNS Human hands have no part - * in manufacturing Antiin-* flammatus.

'Thompson Buchanan m his new comedy “A Woman’s Way” in which Grace George comes to the Fairbanks Theatre, Springfield, Wednesday, February 2nd, proves conclusively th a t people who live in glass houses ought not to throw bricks. Add he also proves th a t when a clever woman makes up her mind to hold hertiusband In the face of opposing feminine charm and opposition, she is going to have her way. The piece is also to he commended for its fresh and whole- quality and its freedom from im­ possible exaggeration. The fun is lively and comes from the clash on clash of characfor, and the dialogue is exceptionally witty. Throughout there is revealed a highly agreeable quality of humor, shot through with a pleasant vein of sentiment and both a re excellently brought ou t in tho acting. •—Fresh lino or cereals, crackers and cakes a t McFarland Bros.

Ludwig Wnellncr has been described as an ''interpreter” rath ­ er than singer of songs, it is neces­ sary to make tho distinction. Dr. VVuctlner has sometimes been cal­ led “ the singer without a voice” , and i t is true tha t, regarded merely [from the standpoint of sensuous quality, his voice is not delightful but ho is called an “ interpreter” rather for the reason th a t the limit­ ed operations of the ordinary sing­ er have made some such distin­ guishing characterization essential. The point is th a t Dr. Wouilner uses ns aids to the delivery of a song, means which are nob ns a rule em­ ployed by singers. His aim is, be­ fore all else, to communicate the emotional significance of the mat­ te r in hand; and to accomplish this end he does not rely upon tho ex­ pressiveness of the voice alone. He invokes, to servo h is purpose, not only variety^ of tone-coloring, but tho aid of a peculiarly mobil count­ enance, and an exceedingly subtle command of tho power of suggest­ ion through bodily posture--not of course, the cheap vocabulary of gestuto dear to tho lycculn of “ re­ citer” , but alterations In tho pose sof the shoulders, arms, hands, which rogiatsr and express with .seeming spontaneity the pmotion of tho song and of the singer.

Judge Kyle gav^ an interesting talk Monday eve b*^»re the Board of Trade in the opera house, the sub­ ject covering taxation and valua­ tion of realty and personal proper- orty. The judge thought th a t tho now Quadrenuial appiilscmentlaw bad some good feature# and i t h id also its disadvantages,. The nearer you can fix a thing a t a value without disturbance the b*»*ter it would be. Tho tariff questim. was referred to as to suggested changes causing a disturbance over the country in all lines of business. Another feature tha t affected the tax payer was the creation of many expensive state, onunty and mun­ icipal departments. The state bur­ eau of accounting was denounced as a farce and a humbug. Tho tendency of the day is for centralization whether m schools, national, state or .municipal gov­ ernment. Federilfc government works a great hardship and each stale should be lef 'a ll the powerit should have. ■, The tu&inqnipitotwas referred to by the speaker as a.l.officer that lias done morn to drive- personal pro­ perty from the county than any other thing. Wild* there were a few thousands addrid to tho dupli­ cate there was always more money placed out of reacuAnd the returns of the assessor invariably showed a decrease, The amount of money th a t can be raised by a certain levy is the only thing tha t gove..i«.f o many taxing boards and the only way th a t such can ever be over some is by keep­ ing down the valuations. I f an increase oft say B0per cent was to be made i$ farm land val­ uations it should so t be m..de a t onee as it would work hardship, A slight; mcieate eaoifeye&r would not be uoticed and wwuld leave the selling values of property oo a bat­ ter basis. The inctoaos suggested was ton per cent.efFnder the. law valuations can me As to how to al property the J no particular Ing op*n ofbW bank forin#peotl-n would evenfully place each in th» hard* of a re ­ ceiver and depositor* would loose, Too many people are over-estimated in wealth. The whole question Is one of deal­ ing with human nature, a very pe- calar thing, in which each man ia to be judged. -'While the constit­ ution says all valuations shall be placed a t a true value, i t is found th a t low are, and most everyone is striving to keeping his as lew as posible. There wore a number of informal talks by different citizens in which the valuations of farm lands twenty years ago are shown to have advan­ ced as to selling value, A compari­ son of the municipal valuations of this with other towns in the county was made. As there was no great amount of time for discussing village valua­ tions another meeting will he held Monday evening in the opera house for this purpose, Mr. J . H . Wol­ ford made a short talk on this point and stated th a t of out $5,000 and $ 0,000 property is only listed a t about $1,900 ami tha t property that would not sell for more than $ 1,000 was being taxed a t about seventy- five per cent of Its value. President Htmvnrt also stated that thero would bo a discussion of th« annexation of improved 'territory to tho corporation. This is another thing of vital lutorrst to taxpayers and will coma up Monday even In3. £• **, '-i •- * ,* * A , 7MBF7 * ' «? , : *.s . •"- . - &* \ ji >^r a " \ - , ►*» - * / , i * *1> * - / , - »■** , l , i House Destroyed By Fire.

BRONSON BILL IN DANGER? Former Kcpfcseutativo Bronson, author of the primary election law which bears his name, believes a movement is afoot in tho legislature to bring about th 6 actual or virtual repeal of th a t law. He hears of one scheme to wipe the entire aefc from the statute books and of another to amend the life out of it. He point# ou t th a t the now system proved a great success a t tho municipal pri­ mary elections of la s t fall and asks only for ft fair trial of it m this year’s nominations of candidates for county office and convention delegates. All th a t is necessary to cay in re­ gard to this matter Is tha t any leg­ islator who votes to repeal or weak­ en hiis law sign* id* own political death warrant. The people of Ohio, who demand the strengthening ef the primary election act, rather than the weakening of It, will mark the man who betrays them a* sure »• fate. We do not believe the leg­ islature will so far forget it* duty to the public a* to repeal or vitiate the Bronson law. If it doss, we be­ lieve oho* has a governor who will nullify Its Work with a veto.
