FUSS AND BRAND ( PUBLIC MUST WAKE UP There is a wide difference o f ■ The recent exposure in the primary opinion between Senator F e s s 1 and .elections in Pennsylvania and Illinois Conyrosstnan Brand over farm re lie f’ where representatives o f utility in- legislation from statements credited ‘ teresta, gave several hundred thms- to each. Tlie views as expressed .by end dollars into the various campaign these prominent Vhdera naturally at - 1 funds, shouldbe a warning to th e 1 tract ‘attention not only among farm*hundreds o f thousands o f utility pa­ inteixsts but over the entire country, U ioub in Ohio. Men do not put money A s their views are so far different on this subject the average citizen is almost at a loss to know which has the righ t side o f the question. From the standpoint o f the farmer Congress man Brand probably represents their views yet we know o f many farm leaders that do not approve o f the policy advocated by Mr. Brand. From the economic standpoint Senator Fess probably has the right solution, and yet some'say he has gone to fa r and 1 ms not a plan that will give the re­ lie f sought. Senator Feas says that the admin­ istration will have a hill before the next congress that it will back to the end, and no other. He also goes far­ ther and says it will be defended in the next presidential election cam­ paign. YOUR DUTY AS A CITIZEN Each and every citizen o f the state o f Ohio has a auty to perform next Tuesday, the day o f the primary fo r nominations fo r .state, district and county* offices. There is no obligation greater that anyone owes his state than that of having a part in the se­ lection o f •candidates fo r public of­ fice. ' It makes no difference what your ’ views are poivticaly. You should reg­ ister your vote on Tuesday and have a part in governmental affairs. You cannot sidestep this duty with .put a detriment, directly or indirectly; to your own interests. I f you are satisfied with present conditions, vote that way. ' I f you think things should be changed,, do ydnr duty and know what candidates will make the desired change if they are chosen at the rolls, For years the political boss ran the ' atfairs of .government fo r his own personal profit by the aid o f the old convention plan o f selecting candida­ tes. Then we had the primary* which if properly supported ’ by the public, makes the political'boss a non-enity. When you Stay away and do hot vote you are suppirting the boss. There are only a comparatively few pre cincts in the County where any boss • can manipulate the vote to suit .him" self. To overcome this' yob owe it to' yourself to vote and see that your neighbor does likewise. B y so doing the vote o f the solid independent electorate will outnumber the. vote o f the boss controled precincts. into campaigns fo r nothing, They ex­ pect a return, and that return in the | case o f the utility interests; is higher rates, to enable the companies to earn larger dividends. This is profitable to | the stockholder, but very unjust. No utility company hns a right to expect ] guaranteed profits any more than the farmer should hb expected to guaran -1 tee the profits o f the grocer. The same interests that w art this protection arc | the very ones that are opposing the ] to,rm relief bills in Congress. Ohio as this time and fo r the past j four years lias had a rotten admin­ istration of the utility board, It is now and has been under the control of the j utility interests. Legislation is guard- * ed through the utility lobby. Members ■ of the Ohio Senate are but tools of j the corporations that Ohio citizens can 1 be consistently robbed by higher | rates. Politicians, draw heavily on the utility company funds, for campaign 5 purposes. Not every utility company prefits by thi? control, The .big com­ panies such as the Bell Telephone; Qompany holds’ a tight line to keep the smaller* and independent concerns weak and struggling. 1 The Bell Telephone Company is en­ joying the greatest profits in the his- j tory o f the company, yet higher rates j are always demanded, . and usually j granted. Xenians are to pay this un­ just tribute by increased rates set by J this corrupt hohrd in Columbus. The Herald has frequently nien-;| tioned how these thing's operate. We haVe a Utility controlled State Sen­ ator from this district, Sen. ( ‘1) L T. Marshall,^ who owes his place to I). Pemberton, lobbyist, and former ] liquor lobbyist fo r Cincinnati liquor interests. It was at the close o f the last legislative session that GJeurgi Poor, Cincinnati, a satelite o f the. Hynicka gang that has controlled Cincinnati fo r .35 years, gave a party in the Deshler Hotel, Columbus, be­ hind dosed doors. This party was to honor ihc members q f the Ohio Sen­ ate that had voted- to retain Tool or the Utility hoard. There Wak liquor it Abundance arid more than half o f the guests in a. bad state o f intoxication, The affair was a disgrace^ to tin stale. ‘ Marshall at that gathering earned and has had conferred upon Him a new degree, “ P. P. P, P ." (Preaches Purity* Practices Pollution.) More than, that the Scofflpw Senator, who has fo r years ,denounced H. E Schmidt, sat at, a booze laden table . The boodle element in the state has become so high priced that the bosses with his supposed foe present. Such want to return to the convention plan brazen hypocracy! o f making nominations. For this ■ ...............' . " reason a move has been started to “ eliminate the primary'. j i Let nothing hinder your plans fo r A V O T E F A R voting Tuesday. Members o f the fam- ■, ily, the tenant or employees. CANDIDATE MAKES ADMISSION The statement in tills paper last week that Bert Smith, convicted gambler, had been given a parole as the result o f a political deal fell like a bolt o f lightning from, a clear sky in the Gowdy-Marshall camp. There could be no denial f o r Smith had ad­ mitted to friends how he gained his liberty. Candidate Bitughu now would have the public believe that he was the good Samaritan and boasts that he could- aid a- down-ar.d-outer ami put him on his feet. I f Smith has been what Baughn claims lie has for many years, why did he not use his effort to lift the fellow up long before he became a prisoner in the county jail? Can Mr* Baughn give satisfactory proof that he ha* ever fit any time given warning to Smith to mehd his ways and do better, previous to the raids in Xenia some months ago. I f Mr, Batighn has known that gjnith and others have been gambling for so many years back,- Why was it necessary then for the county to em­ ploy out-nle detectives to arrest Smith? Where was the Sheriff’s of­ fice the past three years? The Herald Mill stands ( on the statement that Smith was I liberated an the result o f politics and that he way to aid the Baughn candidacy. The fact that Baughn aSgrUwV the A. and P. Tea Company bond fo r Smith, along with George Spencer, another deputy in the sheriff's office, is all tho explanation necessary. Did Smith o ffe r to get another citizen on the bond? The roleAFr o f Smith was in line o f the policy that has been enforced by the Gowdy-Marshall organisation. The Prosecutor has to give his con­ st:nt to such paroles, doing farther, we might »?k what part the dowdy* Marshall officials had in recommend- in/? tlm iote:vie o f Harry Davis, who was serving a fifteen year sentence fo r stealing chickens, after only serv­ ing tbit teen months Certainty some explanation is due all down the line. It Is evident that the public is not Satisfied Vith the administration <f affairs about the sheriff's office.
