Officious Members of Executive Committee
Came Near Causing III Feeling.
Gen. Clias. Dick will speak for Sum
inlt countj' at the annual banquet of
the Gni field club In Youngstown, Tues
day evening, Nov. 19, and thereby
hangs a tale.
There was probably no disposition
on the part of the members of the
Executive committee which is arrang
ing tho banquet, to slight Summit
county, but the fact remains that Mr.
L. C. Miles, tho representative of th!
county, on tho Executive committee,
received no notice of the committee's
meeting and did not attend It Thy
result was, it Is said, that some good
Republican meinberss in Youngstown.
Invited Hon. Geo. W. Sleber to speak
for Summit county at the banquet,
when the latter happened to be in
Youngstown on legal business one day
recently.
Mr. Sleber, It Is stated, suggested
that Gen. Dick was the logical man
to speak for Summit county and there
the matter rested. But the Youngs
town men, went nliead on the suppo
sition that Col. Sleber would bo Sum
mit county's speaker. Akron people
heaid of It and fearing that some
would think this was a slap at Dick,
proposed to those who had taken this
responsibility upon themselves that
Col. Sleber speak for Summit county,
but that Gon. Dick, as Congressman,
be a speaker at large.
However, the tlmo alloted to speak
ing had all been provided for and tho
proposition could not bo made avail
able. Gen. Dick, therefore, will speak
for Summit county and In the mean
time, in a courteous but decided way,
It has been pointed out to members of
the Executive committee, that Sum
mit county has a member in that body
and that he should bo consulted la
the matter of arrangements touching
Summit county.
Representations were mado that a
letter notifying Mr. Miles was sent
to him, but that It must have mis
carried or was misdirected. Thus the
matter is a closed Incident,
Akron Republicans have not yet ar
ranged for attending the banquet but
will do so the coming week and it is
expected there will be a good repre
sentation present from this county.
