Douglas, who received the Republican nomination for Congress in the May primary, is going to attempt an impossible feat of acrobatism. He proposes to ride the Elephant and the Moose into Congress. Every school boy now knows that these two animals are traveling in diametrically opposite directions. They feed in different pastures, and have not one single motive in common. In principle they are absolute antipodes.

Isn't it just like Douglas, standing officially as he does on the Republican platform, and by the political preferment he has secured officially enlisted under the banner of Taft and Brown, appearing as he did before a convention of Bull Moosers, and with plantive voice and beseeching attitude, declaring that me measures up to the qualifications and quirements of the spite ticket headed by the immortal Theodore 1, the friend and savior of the common and George Perkins, the official head of 'good' trusts. So mote it be, and so it may be, but there's an army of good, honest, loyal, persistent and consistent Republicans in the Eleventh district that are saying today, if our candidate for Congress measures up, qualities a and meets the requirements of a Bull Moose candiGate, then he is not for us, for the Republican party is constructive and the 'Progressive' is destructive. The Republican party stands for constitutional government, and the 'Progressives' would overthrow constitutional authority. Republicans are for principle, the 'Progressives' are for man--one man, Theodore the only man in ninety millions who can save this people from self -destruction. S.

0. S. is the signal of its frenzied speakers and its great leader. 'Save, Save Me. I.

Theodore "The Bull Moose ticket was no embarrassment to Mr. Douglas as a Republican nominee. He sought endorsement, he pleaded for it. He took the oath of allegiance and fidelity on yesterday and turned his back upon the party that has honored him with a seat in Congress and nominated him for re-election. He has chosen his bed, and, so far as this paper is concerned, he is welcome to lie in it.

TWO JAIL BREAKERS CAUGHT NEAR THE ROCK HOUSE Burglarized Polen's Saloon at Laurelville and Got Drunk.

MERILL AND MARTIN Were Caught and Held Until Sherif Stoker Came For Them in mobile--Weakness For Drink Was Their Undoing -The Big Guns of the Seven Who Fled Now Back in Jail--Three Still at Large. After a display of an apparently smooth article of criminal ability in maneuvering the forces which aided in their escape from the confines of the local jail, Howard Merill, end James Martin, 45, the prize birds of the lot of seven who sawed through the bars of the county jail early Monday morning, by a fine display or hone-head," were again caught in the toils and now await trial with two additional charges to be placed against them. These two men were committed on May 25th for attempted burglary of the Fox Meat Market on East Second street, and since then have broken jail, an offense against the law, as well as another burglary after their delivery. The two apparently had started on a good avenue of escape, heading for the 1ough country around Mt. Logan, instead of the more beaten paths, when their old fondness for liquor and perhaps the temptation to ply their trade was too strong to be resisted, and on Tuesday night before 12 o'clock the store and saloon at Laurelville was broken into and about $4, some whiskey and tobacco and a coat were taken.

This started the little village into a search for the perpetrators, and a posse of citizens, headed by C. L. Carr, constable, started out Tuesday afternoon on the search. The men had apparently imbibed too freely land were rather careless in the attempts at concealment, for the party were able to follow a somewhat broken trail, and about 3 o'clock in the afternoon the two were found safely esconced on a rough hillside near the Rock House about three miles south of South Perry. Constable Carr, of South Perry, and a party of farmers made the capture.

The men were taken to Laurelville and lodged in the calaboose, while word was sent to this city for further orders. Sheriff Stoker, from the description given by wire, decided they were the men wanted, and with Dr. Oliver, the young veterinarian, who has been working with the sheriff day and night seeking to apprehend the escaped prisoners, left at 8:10 in the evening for that place. The identifi- cation was correct, as it was easily seen upon arrival, and Deputy Sherift Swepston, who was holding himself in readiness, started in the sheriff's auto to bring in the men. The party arrived about 3 o'clock this morning.

One of the men, when he saw Sheriff Stoker, remarked: Stoker, we had you in a lot of trouble the other night, but I guess we're in for it now." On the way in one of the, prisoners remarked that he always thought a man could do anything once, but this time it seemed they couldn't. Like the others retaken, the men refused to discuss the escape, but apparently worry little about the outcome. The two men broke in the Laurelville saloon before midnight Tuesday and were seen by some citizens, who were afraid to interfere. All the stolen property had been thrown away or concealed excepting the after effects of the booze, to which is laid their easy capture. This leaves but three of the seven ret at large: Ike Cheney, the trusty, Wolfe and the Southern negro, who probably has answered the "call of the South" long ere this.

Little difficulty is expected in apprehending the others. Received Official Report. The official report of the accident which later resulted in the death of Frank Myser at Blanchester on Tuesday night, was received at the local B. 0. offices late Wednesday.

The injured man was hurried to a local surgeon and later to the Protestant hospital at bus, where death occurred about o'clock Wednesday morning.

One hip was broken and internal injuries were received. Will Play For Charity. The Elks and Warner House base ball teams are expecting to meet in a final contest at League park day afternoon.

TEDDY NOW CHARGES WILSON WITH MISQUOTING FACTS Says Wilson Ought to be Above That Kind of Practice. JOINS THE ANANIAS Jersey Man's Speech, and Puts Jersely Man's Speech and Puts Forth a Defense of the Progressive Platform in a Speech at Trinidad, Colorado, This MorningCampaign in West. Trinidad, Sept. 19-By Associated Press.) -A denial of statements attributed to Governor Woodrow Wilson, in regad to Roosevelt's attitude toward the trusts, was the main points in the speech of the Colonel at this place. "Mr.

Wilson should be above misquoting facts just to bolster up cause," said Colonel Roosevelt. "In his speech yesterday," continued the Colonel, "the statement to which he refers were made by Mr. Gary and Mr. Perkins, before the Senate committee, while neither of his statements regarding my attitude or the action taken in regard to the Tennessee Coal company affair, were in accordance with facts. I also wish to call attention to his statement that the big trusts were back of the progressive campaign.

Insofar as know the only member of the International Harvester company or the steel trust supporting my campaign is Mr. Perkins, while all the great number of other men, connected with both, are either for Mr. Taft or Mr. Wilson. "Mr.

Wilson says regarding the progressive party's attitude toward labor that the only chance for labor is in competition. I only need to call attention to one example of the methods which we propose, which is in actual operation to show the cor-1 rectness of our plan. Mr. Wilson claims by government regulation labor would be placed entirely in the hands of the corporation bosses.

Such is not true and any man with an atom of sense would not say it was true." Federal Authorities Called Into Vice Crusade in Chicago Chicago, Sept.
