Mr. Mease and Mr. Cook Caught at Railway Crossing Today Mr. Mease Badly Bruised. Oazette-News Bureau, Hotel Hamilton. Washington, Dec. 28. IN recent communications an effort ha. been made to give the reader a line on political conditions as they relate to the republican party in the state, and there conditions will doubtless receive the informal atten tion, at least, of the state executive committee, at the meeting recently called out of season. The effort will now be made to give a survey of the field that take, no account of state lines. In this article the republican situation will be discussed, while the democratic outlook will next receive attention. Within the past week the writer has talked to friends of President Taft, men who have the president's confidence, and who are. laminar witn hi. present bent of mind. The situa tion ha. likewise been talked over with those who would be very glad to oppose the president, should an opening appear, the last named In cluding one of the insurgent sena tor.. Look.

This does not mean that Mr. Taft is nrt in the hearts of hi. coui.Tr.men hut. for that mat ter liP dottni no such point of vantage at Chicago. He was nomi nated because Mr. Roosevelt willed it the politician, responded to order, backed by patronage, and he will be noYnlnnted next time, in all probabil ity because he was nominated the first time, and u second nomination .. m order. Besides, most of the available, would lust as soon see somebody else than themelves try It next time, barring some bod ureaa on the part of the democrats.

Mease and M. H. Cook narrowly escaped death this morning at the grade crossing at the Canton depot. As It was, Mr. Mease was very badly bruised and Mr. Cook had to Jump for his life, while the horse, which was drawing the bimgy was probably permanently Injured. It seem, the Canton shifter, with Engineer Moneyhan and Conductor Harrison, was shifting cars across thc crossing when Mr. Mease drove up. It is claimed that they stopped out of danger ot the cars and after one car had been cut loose from the string, clearing the roadway for a while, Conductor Harrison motioned I for them to cross the track. Acting hen this the men started across the track and were caught by the moving train. The buggy was smaished to pieces and Mr. Mense was thrown to the ground under the horse, the bug gy piling upon him and being under a Box car. The horse was the property of Williams livery company. Both Mr. Mease and Mr. Cook are well known business men of Canton, This is one of the most serious acci dents which has occurred at. this crossing to the public. Although there Is u bridge across the tracks, the circuitous route which must be taken causes more trafllc to cross the tracks than probably otherwise would. A big meeting Is in progress here at the Methodist church with Rev. Mr. Hay. conducting the services. Great interest is being aroused. unTre nr uric HU CO Uf ilLIH CAPITAL Office Mr. Britt Presides Over, During Fiscal Year, Received $224,128,657; Paid Out $229,977,224.50.
