It is evident that the Democrats in this county will make a strong flight this fall to capture at least one county office. The leaders iu the minority parly will only go after one of the throe places for county commissioner. They think that there will be many sore spots after the Republican primary where nine men are fighting for three places. Taking this view tho Democrats last Saturday made a ticket and we find that Mr. H, M. Barber of this place is .slated for the commission- orship. Mayor W. V ; Luce of Spring Valleyysvas named for State Representative. Politics over in Clark county is getting exceedingly warm, partic­ ularly the fight for State Represent­ ative. Harry Brenner has served one term in th’ capacity and has filed his petition ,pr the second term As a rule candidates are given their second term if their services, have been satisfactory hutBrenner is now confronted with strong opposition in the person of J . N. Garver, one of the leading citizens in Springfield. The fight against Brenner is largely due to his attitude on the Eleon merger telexmone bill, he being fav­ orable to the trust measure. Then Brenner, while elected on a strong temperance platform, has only been lube-warm to such, mea­ sures, and h is.opponents expect, to make him earn his second nomina­ tion. J. Fred Anderson, wollknowii here, has been mentioned as a poss­ ible candidate, but declined at tho last, which resulted in Garver enter­ ing the race. While the Senate killed the Bison telephone merger hill.it iaMUMM e taken for granted that the trust will give up tho fight. The miUion dol­ lar combination expects to elect enough representatives and senators Over tho state to be able to ■push through tho measure at the next session. To this end it is claimed from certain sections.of the state that the telephone trust is putting out money m behalf of candidates that stood by tho merger bill, even though it was defeated. “ Jimmie’ ’ Lewis, the “ inisrepres- entative from this county wps nom­ inated and elected two years ago on money furnished by the liquor forces in Xenia. This charge ■lias beon made repeatedly and Lewis has never yet offered denial in any form. However, Lewis turned against those- wiio financed his campaign, which shows the kind of stuff he is made of. As there is a new issue before the people in the telephone question and this organi­ sation is putting up money to elect those who stood against the people it must be taken for granted that “ Jimmie” will not lack for cam­ paign funds. It has been proven that the merger bill would only ben­ efit fifteen percent of the patrons in tiie state, we wonder what kind of an argument Lewis will put up the to tho eighty-five per cent to justify iiis voto for tho measure?

THE MINISTER’S SON. ;W . B. Patten’ s greatest success '•■Tbo Minister’s Son” will be pre­ sented at the opera house Saturday April 89, by George Butler and a select cast of unusual ability. This is one of the most delightful and refreshing plays o f the present day. Clean, wholesome comedy then a touch of pathos to be followed by a scene of exceptional dramatic strength la a brief outline of this play which rivals the “ Old Hoine- ntead” and “ Our New Minister” m every respect. The plot revolves arouud Simon Ray, the imnisler’s son, a good nature*! but whole smil­ ed fellow who proves instrumental in smoothing the paths of those who are near and dear to him. A beautiful scenic production of a play that carries a lesson more powerful than any sinnon ever preached. Prices S3 cenfr, lower floor and 25 cento in balcony, rescived or not reserved. Ttr.
