MARIETTA A GUTTERING EXCEPTION.
rSPltCIAt TILEOBAM TO THB DISPATCH. 1
Columbus, Ap'ril 4. The local election
for city and ward officers to-day was a lay
down on the part of the Democrats. With
a standing majority of about 500, the head
of the Eepublican ticket received a ma
jority of about 2,800. The Eepubllcan
ticket was elected throughout by large ma
jorities. The Democrats sacrificed their candidate
for member of the Board of Public "Works
in order to make the board bi-partisan, as
the board consists of four members, one of
whom is a Eepubllcan. It is sought by this
to deieat the reorganization bill pending in
the Legislature for Columbus. The argu
ment is now to be nsed that the board is bi
partisan, such as prevails in the other cities
of the State, and it is what the Eepublicans
have been asking for in the line of legisla
tion. The Eepublicans, however, will not be
satisfied with the result ot to-day, as the
offices are all nowjln the hands of the Demo
crats, and a selection of a member of the
Board of Public Works will not aid in the
direction of a reorganization.
Cleveland and Fattlson Indorsed.

istration of Governor R.E.Pattison. Contests
had been entered for seats in the committee
from seven wards out of the thlrtv-flve in
the city. These contests Involved the seats
of 11 members, and in every case they were
decided in favor of the State administration
for the Fattlson element of the party.

the alleged Jost of sonic oil in transit through

that the United States Court had no juris
diction, inasmuch as the railroad company
was not a resident of this State. It had only
an agent heie who was not empowered to
solicit business and hence it was claimed the

THEY COPY US.
WE are being copied, and we
regard it as a "compliment
As a matter of fact we rather
like it than otherwise. It
makes it absolutely sure that
we are on the right track.
B D what they will they can't
come to our offers, and, by
the way, here's something for
the copyists to occupy their
minds with: Let them try to
sell such suits as we are, offer
ing for $io, $12 and $15.
They can't do it
DEFIANCE is perhaps a
big word, but we defy one
and all to copy our repair
guarantee; namely: We guar
antee to repair any suit or
spring overcoat free of charge
for one year.
TO speak of this as a grand
offer wpuld be putting it mild
ly. Just imagine you buying
a suit for $10, $12 or $15,
and if buttons, binding, lining
or anything about it wear1 off
it costs you nothing to have
it repaired.
