COLONEL'S OHIO
VICTORY GROWS
Harmon’s Lead Over Wilson,
However, Reduced to Not
Over 12.000 on Delegates.
COLUMBUS. OHIO. May 23.- Be- ’
la ted returns from Ohio's primary only .
serve to emphasize the victory of Colo- I
nel Roosevelt over Ptesident Taft, while
on the Democratic side the situation is
reversed, latest returns gradually cut
ting down the substantial lead which [
Governor Harmon held on incomplete ,
returns, and although he has safely
won on the preferential vote, it is esti
mated his plurality over Wilson will
not exceed 12,000 on the district dele
gates Rest information today gives
Roosevelt 32 and Taft 10 These fig
ures may be changed slightly on an of
ficial count, but fiot materially. It
poems from present indications that
the Roosevelt forces will control the
state convention by a vote of 38. to
372. Latest returns indicate Governor
Judson Harmon has won 27 district
delegatee against 15 for Wilson. The
Harmon forces will undoubtedly con
trol the state convention, and it is ex
pected that they will invoke the unit
rule to give Harmon the solid support
of the Ohio delegation.
T. R.'s Strength General.
Analysis of the returns shows that
Colonel Roosevelt’s strength was not
confined to any one particular part of
the state. He ran well among the
farmers and in the industrial and min
ing communities, while in conserva
tive urban localities, where the presi
dent had hoped to carry all before hint,
Roosevelt sentiment was pronounced,
Roosevelt managers made much of an
incident involving the town of White
House, which gave the colonel a big
majority over Mr. Taft. Roosevelt
supporters regarded this as an omen
of good fortune.
In Adams county, where hundreds of
voters were disqualified a year ago
because of election corruption. Roose
velt ran ahead of the national execu
tive.
Governor Harmon has issued a state- j
ment saying that he will have at least |
40 of Ohio’s 48 delegates in the Balti- |
more convention.

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
J. R. Smith, manager of Joseph M.
Brown's two successful campaigns for
governor, and an ardent advocate of
Woodrow Wilson in the presidential
primary campaign in Georgia, specifi
cally dentes that he entertains guber
natorial ambition now. or that he en
tertained it prior to the overthrow of
the Wilson hosts in.Geotgia recentlx
Mr. Smith declares that if every vote
in Georgia uad been east for Wilson he
still would not be a candidate for gov
ernor. He says lie long ago promised
his vote to a personal friend, and he
would consider it a dishonorable thing
to break that word by opposing him
With regard to his congressional
booinlet. so called, Mr Smith admits
that many friends have written and
spoken to him on that subject, ami
have urged him to oppose William
Schley Howard. He does not say that
he will not be a candidate against Mr.
Howard; neither does he say that be
will be He merely corroborates the
story that Uteri' are friends actively
advocating him for that office.
The Atlanta man does not object to
having his political fortunes discussed
by friend or foe. so long as the facts
are kept straight: but he does object
to the insinuation in some quarters that
he has traded his former Joe Brown
views for a new set of Hoke Smith
views, in order that he might obtain
some office In supporting Woodrow
Wilson, Mr. Smith says he followed his
firm conviction of the right—that he
was for Woodrow Wilson, and had so
announced publicly, long before In
derwoods name was mentioned in
Georgia
Mr. Smith says that when he does
get ready to plunge politically, every
body will be given ample and sufficient
notice.
One of the present railroad commis
sioners Paul B. Trammell—seems
likely to be returned to office without
protest from any quartet. Mr, Tram-
I mell is serving an unexpired term
I brought about some six months ago by
i the promotion of Commissioner War
ner Hill to the supreme court bench:
and it seems gen“rallj agreed that he
shall have a full term without a fight.
Long before Trammell was appointed
to the commission by Governor Hoke

O. W. A LASTING CURE
Not only its proven ability to cure, but its absolute safety as a remedy,
has made S. S. S. the most extensively used of all medicines in the treat
ment of Contagious Blood Poison. Unlike the strong mineral mixtures,
which temporarily remove the outward symptoms and shut the disease up
in the system, there to carry on its destructive work on the delicate and
vital organs, S. S. S. strikes directly at the root, and by purifying the blood
of every trace of the virus, completely and permanently cures the trouble.
6. S. S. is Nature’s blood purifier, harmless in its action and certain in its
good results. It is made from a combination of roots and herbs, each of
which has a definite and specific action in purifying the'blodd: Years were
spent in selecting and proportioning the different ingredients, but when
S. S. S. was perfected it soon demonstrated its superiority over all other
blood medicines, and now, after 40 years, it is still the one and only certain
cure for Contagious Blood Poison. While driving out the poison from the
circulation S. S. S. builds up and strengthens the system by its fine vegetable
tonic effects. If you are suffering with Contagious Blood Poison S. S. S. is
your most certain reliance, and because of its freedom from me cury,
potash or any other mineral, it is absolutely safe for every one. Home
