President-elect Harding has sent Word to' headquarter* in Washington D, C.t that he desires no inaugural parade or ball on the Fourth of March when be*takes over the reins of gov­ ernment. His reason for breaking a precedent that has been followed for years was the lavish use o f money for sdeh a demonstration. Washington business men had raised $200,000 and the government $60*000fo r twrevent inf^tirik'is notinie whin the. before resigning as judge on Gammon Plea* bench named Miss Blsie Oanby, who has been the efficient Stenographer for a number of years, for aifother term of three years. This office figured in the recent elec- tion last fall. A, .prominent educator connected with Wilberforoe University Campaigned for E. t . Gowdy, telling the voijers in that school, yriio consti­ tute a large part *f the vote in Xenia township, that by the election of Mr. Gowdy, a relative of the educator had been promised the position of cotat stenographer. , . Colored people were also inffunced by another story that “Tack” Howard, a prominent Fourth Ward politician, in Xenia, was to he court bailiff, tak­ ing Frank Tarbox's place. It remains to be seen whether'Hr. Gowdy, wlien he assume the office in February will' remove Miss Canby And appoint the colored lady froih Wil berforce, or allow her to hold over. The same is true of Mr. Tatbyx, The people of the entire, county ir­ respective o f race, are keeping a close tab on- the situation and awaiting to see what the judge-elect is going to do.
