IS OHIO FOR SHERMAN!

Boynton Says the People Wanted Him Continued.

Otherwise the Legislature Would Not Slave Been Carried By the Republicans. ti,

A Washington special of the 16th says: In an article in to-da?'s Post on tlieOhio Senatorial outlook, and over his name, Gen. H. V. Boynton states that had it not been understood, prior to the recent clec-, tion, that John Sherman would be reelected to the Senate in the event of Republican success, notonly would the Hamilton couuty Republican candidates for the Legislature have failed of election, but the State would not have gone Republican, nor would the Republicans have been In the legislative majority to-day. In other words. Gen. Boynton holds that the people of Ohio emphasized their desire for the re-election of Senator Shenftan by a general Republican victory that Sherman was before the people at the polls as much as if his name had been on the ticket. He excoriates one of Ohio's prominent Republicans by saying: "In a question or such vast moment to one of the foremost States of the Union, where the issue is whether it shall maintain the lead in the Senate of the United States or drop to the feast influential position there, It Is no time to mince words, or to partially veil unpleasant facts under vagne forms of expression. Beyond expression the Republicans of tho Senate hold Gov. Foraker personally responsible, through tho publication of the ballot-box scandal, for the loss of Ohio two years ago, and the consequent election of Brief. In this they but agree with what is known by the Republicans of Ohio and believed b) the whole country.

Roger S. Pease, a Minneapolis man, has just received letters patent on an invention which, according to the claims of the inventor, will reduce the cost of making a square foot of plate glass from 70 cents to 10 cents. To perfect bis idea has cost Mr. Pease twenty years of close study and $50,000 cold cash in making tho necessary experiments. His Invention consists In rolling the plate of glass on a perpendicular instead of a horizontal surface. It is rolled in the exact thickness required instead of having to be ground down and polished. It comes out fine polished and free from waves and chills, and a surface of soapstone prevents its being scratchod or marred while'cooling. The rollers turn out two sheets simultaneously, and tlit production is very rapid.

A good road is always to be desired, and is a source of comfort and oonve* nience to every traveler. Good roads attiact population, as well as good schools and churches. Good roads improve the value of property, so thai it is 6aid that a farm lying five miles from market connected by a bad road is of less value "than an equally good farm lying tan miles away from market and connected by a good road. A larger load can be drawn by one horse over a good road than by two over, a bad one. Good roads encourage the greater exchange of products and commodities between one section and another. Good roads mean for you and me better business. Good roads encourage riding, driving and sale of our vehicles, while bad roads mean less business for you and for me. for where the roads are bad the trittfic must of necessity be much less.
