NO TIE ' V’ E. E. Zimmerman Nominated Saturday Tlr Kirtland Trtstee Tie tecifcd. The special trustee primary in | Kirkland township Saturday, was the warmest thing that has happened since the late primary. At that time, G. M. T. Houck und£. E. Zimmerman tied, and it was to decide this tie that another election was held. There were 166 votes cast Saturday, thus showing that about all the democrats in Kirkland township took an interest and a hand in setling the controversy. When the count was completed it was found that G. T. Houck had seveny nine votes, and E. E. Zimmerman eighty-seven. They both arc among the very best that Kirkland township produces and they i have some mighty good men and I democrats within their borders, j The successful candidate, E. E. j Zimmerman, will make a good ! official, and safe trustee* of the township. Much interest dovelopj ed over the county when they heard ' |of the tie, and the Democrat has answered telephone calls from, I every which way, simply from i I curiosity, they wanting to know] ; who the successful one was. ARE FRIGHTENED ' Erie Shops May Move From Huntington A Former Employe of the Road Has Filed Suit and Officials Are I Very Indignant. The citizens of Huntington uro > greatly excited over a rumor that is i afloat th it the Erie railway will re-' move thair simps from that place i to Rochester. Indiana and all that I can be heard on the streets is the question "Will the Erin shops Im* moved" to Rochester? It seems that ull the trouble has arisen over the fact that a certain man named , Edward Heater, a former fireman : on the road, filed a suit against the | | railroad company, and has stirred i up a hornet’s nest. The railroad! officials claim that his contentions! are untrue and that the filing of j the action by a local official is nothing short of jiersecution. The; offiioials of the company also claim j that for the past two years the city > lof Huntington has been untagonis-' ' tic to its interest, and say th;U they ' have had more trouble with employee's of that city than any otbei j place along th* ir entire system. They aslo state that the newspapers urfti j merchants have always luen in {sympathy with the employ«*es, without regards to their own inter jests. There is no doubt but that the Erie company is also loosing Ipatience* with the city iinel ure now seriously considering the* question. lof moving the shops elsewhere, where they w ill have loss trouble.' The citizens oU Huntington are 1 considerably wrought up over® this 1 matter and uro trying in all imaginable* ways to straighten this 1 jfliffi unity out. There is no doubt but that the Erie shops make' Hnntington wh it it is and they conclude to move, the city of Huntington would not only befinan-1 cially a looser but would in every other lire of industry.

........ _ ..... — I wy.-- - —' — MUG IT OVER The Senate Is Not Yet Through WittrPanama Question. ~~&“ A New Basi.- for Speeches Was Establisher by Resolution of Inquiry Introduced Today. j Democrats Force the Discussion of the Subject in Open Session. — Washington, Jan. 25.—The senate . has no program for the present week beyond a continuation of the debate on the Panama question. The fact that the Gorman resolution of inquiry I was disposed of last week does not | change the situation except that It makes necessary a new basis for speeches. This will be supplied In 1 the resolutions of inquiry introduced ' today aa the result of Saturday's conference of Democratic senators. A number of addresses are still to be made on both sides of the controversy, and it is quite certain that the debate will continue for many days. It is well understood on both sides of the chamber that in reality the treaty and not any particular resolution is being discussed, the reason being that the treaty itself could not be discussed in open senate, whereas the resolution can be. The Democrats prefer an open discussion of the question and 'he Republi-' cans as a matter of policy and in the interest of the expedition of the vote on the treaty, have not objected. ■ When it becomes apparent that, the discussion in open session is exhaust- ] e<l, executive sessions will be ordered ; and the debate will proceed behind 1 ; closed ihwrs. It is quite well understood that the I amendment to the treaty reported by i the committee on foreign relations will be withdrawn before final action is taken. .

A MILLIONAIRE'S SYMPATHY lieruMcil Ohl Friend Loan or 85. but Slnrleu Ulin Anew In Life. “A mini whom I knew well, one who hail om-c been a prosperous business man in St, I.ouis, but who had met reverses, walked into he otiice of otic of oltr wesi 'i-n milllon.-lircs and asked ihe loan of ¥5," said a .Missouri excongressman. “The man seeking the favm*h id been 1 a close friend of the millionaire before lie had . become immensely rich. The unfornimite®otie went to the other in fear and trembling, dreading to be turned down, for he knew that the news of his taking to drink had reached the ears of bis old time friend. "lie nas greetisl with eosdiality, however, and plucked up heart to ask for the money. Immediately the mil- * lionaire’s demeanor changed. ‘No,’ i said lie, 'I can’t let you have ss.’ “'1 hardly expected you would,’ re--1 plied the supplicant.-‘but thought that i inaylx* for our former friendship you might do me that little favof. HowI ever, it does not matter. When a man’s ; luck deserts him lie can get‘no asslst- | ance from any quarter,’ and with an I air of absolute dejection he turned to ' leave the oflice. “’No. 1 won't give you what you ' want, but wait here a few minutes,’ { and the millionaire went into his prl- ' vnte room and held a brief conversation with one of bis employees. In a quarter of an hour the clerk returned j and held out a big, fat envelope to the l miserable being. The latter, hardly realizing that any one should send him a communication, broke the cover and inside found live brand uew SIOO bills and a railway ticket to St. Louis, with berth or park ■ car. On seeing these anil realizing that the man whom lie supposi d would not let him have l had been his benefactor, the recipient of this unexpected generosity broke down and cried like a c-liild. , “There is not imu-h more to the story except that with the money the man went to his old home mid started up a small business, out of which he derives a comfortable living. The moral, if there is one, is that millionaires are often as sympathetic ns ordinary mortals. This parth-iihir one 1 know to be the possessor of a big heart, and yet lie has the best reasons for never talking about his acts of charity."- " •isliingtoii Post. WAYS OF FAILURE.
