Tilt election Tuesday i-eeulteil in % reversal of tilings from what they have ‘been for ten years. During this time the Democrats have con trolled the state but the entire Re publican ticket, was vjetonus Tueg- nay; . The campaign has been a bitter dhb between the two parties, the Progressives adding to the situation but the vote ih the state leaves ihi» party without much strength. Charges and counter charges have occupied the attention of the public. The liquor question entered the campaign and the Progressives made a plea for statewide prohibi tion and Woman's suffrage. The -democrats, stood by the license law. The Republicans in the platform were neutral but Cow Elect Willis declared there would be1no back- ward step and that he personally would faVor prohibition. This at once inflamed the liberal rote in the party, particularly in Otaoujnati where willis was compelled to can cel all speaking engagements. Not one^citizen in the state in ten ex pected Willis to carry that county, the Repuhhcan poll’ even c o n c ed ing Oox the county byi 15,003, A trick was turned Monday i t Is said, that changed the situation and cost Oox the county. The (governor had enforced the Sunday closing law, something never before done in the history of the city; The Republi can county’ committee seeing a chance to throw the county to W illis, even though he had de clared * himself1 for prohibition, circulated the city with literature and posters inflaming the people against Cox for taking away their Sunday beer, ' As a result Willis cariiedthe county by about 8000 . The liberal interests of course will expect Willis to stand lor the open Sunday 'but the Governor-elect’s friends are confident ne will- no.fc.

BIG CROWD OUT, The local demonstration Monday night on behalf of the temperance committee outclassed anything .of the kind over given here. It has beSn mdny a day since $0 many people par ticipated in a public demonstration of this character. The parade was fully a mile long and was led by the Clifton hand. , There*was plenty of music, red Are, jollification and enthusiasm and so great was the crowd that filled the opera (house that an overflow meeting was addressed in the public square by Revs, Patton, McMichael and Rev. Sullivan. In the parade was a large delega tion of the college students, faculty, hoard of trustees. The public schools from the primary grades to the high school with the faculty and hoard of education. . The Sabbath schools of the churches were fully represented, the V/. <3. T. U. and citizens in gen- eral from town and township. It I* estimated that all of 1500 people par ticipated in the demonstration. Several of the floats that took part in the Xenia parade were again Used. One of the features of the parade was the victoria with tandeffi team in full decoration. Paul Creswell was the relnsman and with him were Andrew Winter, Roscoe Mctforkell, RalphWol ford, and “King" Ofeswell. While Rev. Sullivan addressed the overflow meeting. Dr, Poster, of ’-Clif ton, gave a Splendid talk to the audi ence that filled the opera house. “Fol lowing came Rev, Sullivan, who for more than an hour poured volley aft er volley Into the liquor camp. Dur ing his speech he was applauded time after time. ’ CEDAftVlLLE SENDS LARGE DELEGATION. Ced&rville Was to the front Satur day in the dry parade in Xenia. Not only did Wfe have one of the largest delegations in the pagent, but cap tured two of tho prizes. Some idea of the crowd ftom here can be estimated when are lehrn that over three hun dred tickets were sold. The fast train stopped at 10:47 to accommodate tho crowd and an accident happened near the Xenia yards that might have been serious. Owing to a rail spreading the tender left the track and had the sliced been great several hundred lives would have been in danger, Thft train was held up almost thirty min utes, during which time the people wore held in tho coaches. -Another earof fresh cement, D, 8.

Another important question w*» the adoption of the initative and referendum. The issue in this county was the election of a man to that body to oppose the license of saloons and such u -delegate was supposed to have been chosen* This same gentlemen was preaching socialistic ideas of the initiative and 'referendum. Tho proposition being spipsthing new, hundreds followed, that man’s advice, not knowing themselves his ul* terio? purpose. In fact people were so wrapped up in this movement it was unpopular for anyone to take a stand against it. Every argument fell on deaf ears and the citizens of the county fell like sheep into a trap that .took every ounce of a rural populace’s voice and strength from them and placed it in the hands of populated centers were moral issue* are ; never given consideration. Todi y temperance people stand ■where they ' did twenty years ago, nearly every vestage of temperance legislation be- ' ing thrown to the winds by the initiative and referendum.
