More than 200,0.00 sign#- . tures are required to get the bill in­ to the legislature.- When the petition, is presented refuse to sig# it. When such a bill was introduced in the’ last legislature by our Scofflaw Senator at. the bidding of the liberal * interests, Mr. Williamson voted a- gainst the hill.

' Williamson has been fair with the voters and made known his position. What about the stand the Sen. (?) will take? ' , The Herald has but one question to ask Sen, (?) Marshall. Was there or was there not a financial consideration in connection with the introducing of the last primary bill in the legisla­ ture? The fact that Marshall’s political consort, D, Pemberton, former lobby­ ist for Cincinnati liquor interests,-is campaigning for the proposed primary - change, is proof that Marshall is un­ der control of the liberal leaders. . * t _____ < ’ >■' ! t , 1 1 V, * ?,> Child Lost Eyesight; Suit Against Company,.

This was the plan offered by Senator (? ) L, T, Marshall in the last legislature, at the,, request Of:the Cincinnati liberal element. The liberals wanted to make sure of the nomination of a liberal candidate for each of the political parties this fall. There are some'that would like to see change# made in the primary law, The present plan, suggests little or nothing but'leaves everything up to the. Ohio legislature—which most citizens consider an uncertain quan­ tity after the, Iasi session of drunken rcvelery, particularly in the Senate. More than once*Cjgliimbus papers re­ ferred to the Appearance of intoxica­ ted members abput vthe legislative halls. If this efiange is sanctioned a t the November election, which we doubt very much, there would be enacted the most disgraceful scene ever known in Ohio. The forces hack of this change are out for business and if i t i# sanc­ tioned by the voters this fall, there will be a rich harvest a head for .the money changes in- that body. A- hold­ out could get his own price, One of the leading members of the lust House, was A. C. McDonald, now mayor of Dayton. Mayor McDonald come# out in a flat-footed statement opposing a change and gives logical reasons and conclusions why thare should be nb change. He says that by opening -the way the Ohio legislature would create the same condition that existed in the state 25 or 30 years ago. M McDonald says that he will campaign over the state in opposition to the proposed change should enough signatures be secured, We would suggest to Mr. McDon­ ald that he make'a canvass of the candidates now before the primary that are seeking nominations.’ as members of the nfext Ohio legislature If enough Of them sign pledges to refuse to change the present system, the matter is settled. We iiave an ac­ quaintance with a member of the present Senate, and again a candidate and he is now opposed to any change a# proposed.- We have no reference to Senator (?)

As there are more than 200 cases waiting for decision there could nothing be done about the of­ fice of .the commission. Theta will not to, now. a candidate for sheriff. Mr, Lowry has take# more than an ordinary interest in the Coming primary in Mr, Tate’s candidacy for sheriff, He is putting in some good work for a good man and one he knows personally. Thu rail­ road employees about Xenia, and there are several hundred, votes, have set out to put their favorite across. -• ,# • , Different times earlier in the cam­ paign reference was made by political leaders that the’ American Legion md little or no organization tod was not a factor to be considered. This has so stirred the Legion boys in be­ half of Tate for sheriff, tha t things are on the move. The boys consider such a statement an insult. There is no organization a« worthy of public confidence as the Lcrfon, The organi­ zation is attempting to force nothing on the public. It -has endorsed one of its number, just as other organiza­ tion# have done in the past. Mr. Tate has gone so fur through the campaign with out' a single reference against Ids character or bis ability to fill the office should he be nominated and elected. The stinglng point with the joliticians who ate opposing Tate is that they cannot come to the front with an open statement asking the public to support Baughh* Imagine a public appeal for Baughn from the icsses, Schmidt tod Marshall, m -0 *' We understand jobs are open to a number1of ladies at a good price per day to make a house to house can­ vass for one .of -the candidates for sheriff. A good sob story is framed and all the canvasser ha# to do is to repeat it with a wet eye and a little tremble in .the voice. That is what is known as the “Xenia” idea of cam paigning. Just as soon as we hear of such a canvasser here we will make due announcement. A ’ list of the workers for sheriff candidates here would be interesting reading. * «* • * A new organization -came to the front last Saturday wliew a large num­ ber of Ex-Service Men met in the as­ sembly room at the court house ahei organized an Ex-Service Men’s Be publican Club. Raymond Horen was chosen president; Joe Adams, vice president, and Harold Dice, secretary -treasurer.

In a statement made at the time he died his declaration of candidacy, Mr. Brown emphasized that his efforts, if elected secretary of state, would be devoted to expediting election returns promptly and accurately, the organi­ zation of the state automobile, de­ partment for lho prompt diatributiejn of license tags, and the careful keep­ ing of records for the protection and convenience of the public.

The Columbia Co. is a Taft concern and gradually the Taft in­ terests are taking over the gas and electric' interests in Southern Ohio. E&eently the Columbia Co. purchased, the Dayton Power & Light Co, and the Dayton Gas Co, The same, gas is now sold in this section to two diff­ erent companies, oil owned by the same moneyed interests. .Profits are taken on each sale.
