Davie, were in town Tuesday when they met members o f council and a p lait o f improving Xenia avenue was worked out to the satisfaction o f each side. When the Jamestown pike im provement was started council felt that by the constant use o f Xenia eve. by the heavy trucks the street would be ruined, The commissioners then promised some aid on repairs when the road was completed. A t the conference Tuesday the commissioners agreed to haul the stone and use the road roller and equipment on condition that council pay for the afconA This was agreed to and the, work will start in a few days. While here the Main street bridge was inspected. For mapy months the mortar has been failing from the joints in the arch. The heavy trucks cause much vibration and there has been a question whether the bridge was perfectly safe, Mr. Davis reports that the masonary needs to be. point ed up. When the cement top is put down fo r the paved street the bridge will he as safe as it ever was. HOW MONEY CAN SHRINK UNTIL IT IS WORTHLESS We have in! our possession a Rus sian Soviet 50,000 Ruble note which came through the Guaranty Trust Company o f New York City. T^ie Ruble is the standard o f money in Russia as our dollar is in this country Before the war the Ruble was Worth F ifty One, and One Half Cents in our money. A t that rate the 50,000 ruble We had a value of $25,500 before the war. Today it has little or no value. For instance it would take about'one million rubles to get a noon day din ner in that country. I f you wanted to buy a Ford in Russia it would take one biUion> rubles, which if baled would be as large as the usual cotton bale in, this country. This should be an object lesson and a warning to us o f the danger o f any sort o f radical ism . The same kind o f socialistic gov ernment in Russia that depreciated the yalue o f the ruble would do the sathe ip. thjs gcunjry to oitr gold dol- CONDENSED OHIO NEWS News Items Picked a t Random and Lolled Dawn far the Busy Reader *Six bandits held up the Genoa Hank- 1: 4 company’s bank at Genoa, Ottawa ciu-tity, and escaped with 110,000, darting a it re to iljaw ibe atten tion of the residents to another sec tion o f the village, and killed a citi zen, William Rhofieri, 40, a druggiBt.

Three Women, Harriet Thomas, Mil dred Earl and Louise Smith, and Otto Landrook, all of Akron, arrested at Toledo in. connection with the alleged theft of $2,000 in. merchandise from a Troy department store several weeks ago, were returned to Troy.

Under a change in the law commissioners are elected for four years. The law is plain but the ballots did not specify which Was the short term nnd the long term nom inees. In thin county R. D, Williamson was low man two years ago in the primary. I f a contest is filed and the question taken to the courts it is held that the last election may be declared illegal. Mr, Williamson does not expect to contest the right to hold over but should a suit be filed from some other county in the state all outgoing - commissioners will hold their seats until the Supreme Court decides the question. Herman Eavey was elected in this county at the last election and will serve fo r four years if he gets to take his seat, Senator Newbeipy of>Michigan has resigned his seat end from reports he may try fo r the toga st the next elec tion. The ■Senator was the victim o f the professional political reformer. He probably spent more money than he should to be elected but in the hearing'there was no evidence that he had corrupted anyone. He was forced to meet the Henry Ford millions in the election. Newberry' spent most o f his campaign money for newspaper advertising in his state^-which we arc told, by reformers now is as bad as robbing a bank. Pinchot, the Progressive leader in Pennsylvania Spent about $90,000 to get the nomination for governor in his state. This evidently was all right as no complaint has been registered. No doubt most o f this money went to the politicians. Pinchot will have to be governor nearly ten years before he can get back in salary what is cost him to get the nomination. Oar own beloved Charles L. Knight, millionaire publisher o f the Spring field Sun, half baked Socialist, who was an "also-ran” in th e , recent Re publican primary, harps much on what is must have cost Thompson to get the nomination, never saying word about the thousands o f dollars he speht himself on bill boards space displaying his likeness with blazoned display lines that the dear Charles was in the Pinchot and Beveridge class o f Progressives. When the situation is thoroughly canvassed there can be no objection to Senator Newberry holding a Seat in the Senate. I f Pinchot’s expendi tures were proper* the same must be said o f Newberry. tgf mpr* than. 6 al- Guernsey DELEGATION GOING TO HEAR SUNDAY FRIDAY NIGHT _lari** Talley. 16 year* old, daughter of a ttf*iffaphef to Kan* S CitV, vrtto a Grand Opera hear* iwd 0 m been deetewl the Vi* w*#d*r i f the day- H .
