worthy of emulation, and pointed the

DELEGATION.
Columbus, O., Aug. 7.—Whether
Ohio’s Republican voters in tomor
row’s State-wide primary will follow
the trail blazed by Indiana, Pennsyl
vania and Iowa, and nominate a prog
ressive candidate over the organiza
tion’s choice for governor; whether
they wiil repudiate the state’s stand on
prohibition and nominate a light wine
and beer candidate, and whether la
bor’s choice for candidates will prove
to be the popular ones were the dom
inant subjects on the eve of the bal
loting.
With Congressman Charles L.
Knight, of Akron, as their standard-
bearer, the progressives hope to swing
Ohio into the list of progressive
states.
Administraion forces have pinned
their faith in the ability of Carmi A.
Thompson, of Cleveland, a former
United States treasurer, to lead them
to victory. With Thompson, also, the
drys, under the leadership of the Anti-
Saloon League, hope to hold Ohio in
the ranks of absolute prohibition.
Thompson is a candidate for governor.
Extreme wets are expected to throw
their support to C. Homer Durand,

Kills Sister-In-Law
Wounds Wife, Kills Self
Wild excitement was occasioned in
the negro residental section of Bain
bridge at an early hour Tuesday morn
ing when Walter Shaw, a negro
known as a desperate character, arm
ed with a 38-calibre Winchester rifle,
went on the war-path.
Before Shaw could be stopped he
had shot and instantly killed his sis
ter-in-law, seriously, perhaps fatally,
wounded his wife, after which he later
sent a bullet through his own neck,
severing the jugular vein, death re
sulting instantly.
The fatal affair is said to be the
outcome of a family row. Shaw and
his wife had a disagreement Monday
night, and early Tuesday morning
the negro went to his home near the
G. F. & A., depot where he immedi
ately opened fire on his sister-in-law.
After she had fallen to the floor, in
stantly killed, Shaw turned the deadly
rifle on his wife, shooting her in the
neck, from which she is said to be
completely paralized.
Believing his wife to have been
killed, Shaw calmly left his home and
proceeded to the home of his mother
on Hall street, where he related what
he had done.
His mother thereupon left to secure
aid and after she had gone a short
distance Shaw walked into the back
yard, and placing the muzzle of the
rifle against his neck sent a bullet
crashing through his jugular vein.
the former wet and dry fights, who is! Examination developed that the bullet
an out-and-out wine and beer advo
cate. The more conservative wets,
however, are expected to throw their
support to Secretary of State Harvey
C. Smith, of Zanesville, who has been
classed as a wet by the Anti-Saloon
League. Smith has contended prohi-
had also broken the negro’s neck.
The Death of
Mr. H. F. Arline
July 28th, Mr. H. F. Arline passed

bition is not an issue and has advoea- ,

Wet Amendment Favored
On the eve of the balloting, there
was filed with the Secretary of State
a petition calling for the submission
of a light wine and beer amendment
to the state constitution to be voted
on at the November election. A
statement given out by Major F. W.
Marcolin, secretary of the Ohio divi
sion association, against the prohibi-
ton amendment, said the petition con
tains 238,002 names. The statement
said a particular feature of the peti
tions was the large number of women
signers.
One feature of the campaign, en
dorsement of Thompson by the Hamil-
Un county (Cincinnati) organization
has served as an anomoiy. Hamilton
county has been the bulwark of the
wet forces in previous campaigns and
its endorsement of Thompson has
served o bring out caustic remarks
from the other avowedly dry candida
tes during the campaign.
The Senatorial contest, in which
Senator Atlee Pomerene and Con
gressman S. D. Fess, formqr chair
man of the Republican national con
gressional committee, generally ad
mitted by political leaders to be the
leading candidates has been compli
cated by the endorsement of their
opponents by labor organizations, par
ticularly th Big Four rail brother
hoods. Labor has given its endorse
ment to former Congressman John
J. Lentz, Columbus, against Senator
Pomerene, and former Senator Char
les Dick, of Akron, against Congress
man Fess. Mr. Fess also has twa
other opponents, former Leut. Gov. ■
John H. Arnold, of Columbus, and
David W .Wood, an inmate of the i
Ohio Soilders’ , Home at Sandukky.
Arnold claims to be a progressive.!
Sixty-Nine Canidates.
While most of the incumbent con
gressmen have opposition, most poli
tical leaders expect them to be nom
inated. Only two districts, the seven-1
th and fourteeth, where Knight and 1
Fess now are serving, are to nomi- !
nate women. All the candidates for ,
renomination have upheld the record
of the Adminstration and few of their
opponents have criticized it severely.
All Democratic congressional can- J
didates are new men or old ones seek- j
ing a comeback. The present Ohio j
dblegaion is solid Republican, all j
Democratic candidates having gone'
down in the Harding landslide two
years ago.
The State ballots are the longest 1
in the State’s history, sixty-nine can
didates on both tickets making up j
the entries. Besides these, the con
gressional and county candidates add'
to the list. On account of the large |
ballot, it is expected that returns will j
tie slow in coming in. The polls close
at 5:30 Central Standard Time.
Besides nominating candidates for j
all State offices except auditor, can
didates for one seat in the United
States Senate are to be chosen and a j
full delegation to the House. The
outstanding fight in both Republican
and Democratic circles has been that
for Governor, where nine Republi
cans and three Democrats are seek
ing the nomination.
Judge W. V. Custer
Announces This Week
Judge Wm. V. Custer, of this city,
recently appointed by Governor Hard
wick to succees Judge R. C. Bell, ap
pointed to the state court of appeals,
announces in the columns of the Post-
Search Light this week that he will
be a candidate in the September pri
mary for the full term as judge of
the Albany circuit superior courts.
Judge Custer is taking up the
duties as judge of the circuit like a
veteran, and is proving the wisdom
of Governor Hardwick in selecting a
successor to Judge Bell. He will be
busily engaged with his official duties
during the campaign, and will not
have the opportunity to make an act
ive canvass. However, he is well
known throughout the circuit, and is
receiving splendid assurance of sup
port.
Being a citizen of Bainbridge, the
people of Decatur county are very
much interested in the campaign of
Judge Custer, and his many friends
are confident that the voters of the
circuit will endorse his appointment
by electing him to serve the full
term.
Miss Mary Alice Aulday has re
turned home after visiting relatives in
Savannah and Waycross.
