At Clifton the twwi from that place was picked up mar a m u to g time had in each of the town* Ytoltecf. Ye4tow Springs was the first stop when the delegation made known Its purpose and a hike for Xenia. With a circle about the business portion of the city the band wa» stationed on the courthouse lawn aud in a short time finite a crowd gathered, Jamestown was the next stop and by th is time we had added a machine or two making finite a delegation, Jamestown has always been strong on . similar jaunts in boosting affairs, but Cedsrrnie wjas. given the banner. The next jump was to south Solon and then South Charleston and Selma,'Al­ though South Charleston is to have a Chautauqua, Cedarvillians had the hon­ o r of returning the call o f a deiegq- -tion from that enterprising place some weeks ago,. The day wa» ideal for such an outing and it. was thoroughly enjoyed by more than cue hundred people," It is with some pride to point to the fact th a t the trip -ot 68 miles was made wttthout a seHOUS accident. In fact there wa* nothing more than two or three cases'of tire trouble, one' engine trouble and -another broken spring. But even th is did- hot keep the nut ohtoee from making the trip, Before starting the drivers were given instructions -by Rev, McMichael, president of the association. • Dr. M.

The primary law for the noxnlna-1 tion of all state, Senatorial, county and dlrtript and county committee­ men will be on trial next Tuesday. It will-be the first attempt for nominat­ ing any o f the above officers of the various parties other than to the coun­ ties. It was expected that, the bo5# rule would ended when nomina­ tions were placed to the hand* of the people, but so far tba people have shown no disposition to make their own nominations and the botoes have token hoM and wto do .their, best to means or no organization is almost helpless* hence law. to not pleasing to either aide untoeothe vote is -out to full strength proving that the people have taken- more interesttlion Is seen on the surface a t thin time. | This brings'-ua (contest and the ^opposition at the iRepublicans there J I-that will, bear - been careful in , from different, sec j as t,o who was wb jpress* an opinion to® : didate or against *for the purpose a t 1 Ur. - { Certainly it can Ishow prejudice Amos.Faulkner, f Vay fop treasure clerk, B.

The latter has no con­ tests and not much 1s being heard at this time, The Republicans especial­ ly- have several contests that are Dith­ er warm and the same might be said of the Democrats. The Herald lias followed a .number of political writers who are In toucb with the campaign and sentiment from this source as wel) as from straw vote# taken here andthere we feel that a ’#afe guess on the Republican nomi­ nation for governor will be Congress­ man Willis. His vote Will come large­ ly from the rural counties with a fair representation ;ln the cities. He will have' the dry vote almost solid. Tod is neither wet or dry according to his stated position. In fact hi# attitude has not been pleasing to either side. The organization# in the cities have taken up bis cattoe to some, extent, knowing that the liberal vote will not stand for 'Willis. The contest be­ tween Whitacre and Gov. Cox on the Democratic side is a joke, Whitacre’s strength lie# in disappointed office seekers and Republican aid in -the hope of weakening the governor. Whitacre has made several breaks that has brought forth apology later, particularly wa*t thi# true to .his at­ tack against tho laboring classes. The senatorial contest seems to be between Harding and Foraker with Colo a weak third, tip until two week# ago FOraker was conceded the leadership, but there -lift# been a change and Harding seem# to have taken first place. At any rate the race seems lb be undecided. Hogan is said to be leading the Democratic candidates, though Zimmerman Is rat­ ed as a dose second and by election day may capture the honors, A num­ ber of thing* have entered in this contest th a t -ha# not' appeared- in any other and a prediction as to the re­ sult is uncertain.

This was due for two reasons, first, the experience neces­ sary to satisfactorily fill the duties of the office; second, a matter of econ­ omy to the tax payers, The breaking of this rule is going to be an added expense to the taxpayers in that tho county will be compelled to pay about twice 'the present salary, which to but equal that of the ordinary laborer* The county can well afford to con­ tinue this rule and reward a faithful deputy by election to the office of sher­ iff. In these days of high taxes the continuance of the long established rule should not be overlooked. It is not necessary to -advocate Mr. Jackson’s nomination on the -above plea, for hia record as a deputy is one that no one need be ashamed of.
