COOPER SOLD OUT After a break among: Republican leader*! a t Columbus last week it was not much of a surprise that Myers Y, Cooper, Republican candidate for gov­ ernor, was defeated Tuesday, as the returns .indicate a t thiB time. For twenty years the Republicans of Ohio have had trouble electing a governor. In all that time we have had but two, if our memory serve* us cor­ rectly, Willis and Davis. I t has not been much trouble to elect other state officero but as for governor, something always happens, Mr. Cooper bad all the recommenda­ tions necessary to insure Republicans that he was qualified for the gover­ norship, Hia personal record was as clean as could be desired, His service to the state in more or less private af­ fairs gave him a wide reputation as a leader in religious, civic and busi­ ness organizations. At' times boodle politicians and big business do not want that kind of a man for governor. Evidently Cooper was not wanted, Politicians began to betray him and a break in the organi­ zation showed itself last week. Cooper then threatened to withdraw from the state committee but the surface was smoothed over to prepare for his slaughter. . One o f the issues of the campaign for governor was the utility commis­ sion. Donahey has made much capital of this issue. A recent Republican Senate controlled by lobbyists for the Bell telephone, gas and electric in­ terests, refused to confirm Donahey's appointments for the utility commis- ' sion. . ' j When Cooper announced. that he would urge the repeal of the Pence law, th a t was enabling these compan­ ies’ to collect great sums from con­ sumers, trouble started. Later Cooper did the honest thing in stating that he would change the personal of the utility commission. This brought on the crisis and the lobby element be­ gan a secret warfare. The lobby element for these inter­ ests now have two faithful members oh the commission to make rates. The situation is plain. By defeating Coop­ er the Ibbby controlled Senate will re­ fuse to confin# ■Donahey appoint­ ments and Frank Mauller and .George Poor, will remain to make rates to the liking of the companies. A good man has been sacrificed as the Republican nominee that boodls at methods can be used to Ibfic by inflicting' tibjtfst rates, Donahey will be helpless, ye t he is to be the governor from present .election returns. THEN AND NOW Two year* ago Donahey carried Greene county by 167 and was the first Democrat ever to get f majority in thia county. This year Myers Y. Cooper carried the county by about 2,200 according to the unofficial fig uses. Two years ago .the Gowdy- Marshall forces were a t the helm of party affairs. Wives of Republican county candidates then campaigned for Donahey. Thia year under the direction of County Auditor R. 0 . Wead, the cen tral committee as well as the execu tive .committee was loyal to the party and gave the state candidates good support. HAVE REASON TO DISAGREE THE TEA POT DOME CASES After two or three years fighting in the courts albeit Fall, former secre­ tary of the Interior, must face trial in the United States Courts for at- tempting to defraud the government.. Fall, like Harry Dauggherty, has been before the public on serious char­ ges for some time. The disclosures in the Tea-Pot Dome case and the leas­ ing of oil lands in California, which forced him,out. of the cabinet, shocked the country* The. government failed to convict Daugherty owing to a disagreement among the jurors. In- the meantime Harry may be devoting his time to writing that book (pf his, lifework he announced some months ago, ' We have been assurged by local leaders >of the W, C. T. U. that this organization is not in accord with many of the election policies of the county organization. -For the past five years the eoutety organization has been nothing more or Teas than a political organization taking orders from political bosses. What disturbs the local leaders is the method of campaign used in Xefti*, when women ,canvassed the city anti campaigned that Frank H. Dean was wet. Local leaders say that the whole organization is under- obligation to Mr, Dean for what he has done in the past, when it sometimes did not pay to stand up alid be counted on the dry side. As fa r as we have been able to learn most of the local organ­ ization members favored Mr, Dean, Judging from the vote this must have been so. What the loaders in the local or­ ganization should do is, make a sur­ vey and it .will not be hard to pick out the women politicians that are work­ ing fo r pay. There are some of the so Called leaders that are making their living through politics and what they can get directly and .indirectly from the organization. Meantime others are asked to “ come across” to keep the organization^alive for the good of the Cause. , We have a- very kindly feeling for the local organization of recent years i t has adopted &program and work­ ing along lines that will be beneficial to the community and not parading as semi political organization wher<- orders are given to pass out this and a**--, v .rOMMMI Local leaders have lamented that more wonien of this commUhity were not.'members o f the-W.

By JANE OSBORN I DON'T KNOW Three words in any language hardest for the average person to say are: “I don't know,” K you doubt this observe the distinguished foreign visitors who arrive to investigate our fair land. At the pier they ate interviewed. They answer questions on religion, politics, art, morals, music, history, literature, biology, philoshophy, clothe* and the younger gen­ eration without hatting an eye. They proclaim with the gravity of a Delphic Oracle undisturbed in the slightest by the evident fact that they don’t know what they are atlking about, The lae Joseph Conrad, the writer Of sea stories, is the one re­ freshing exception in recent memory. Whnn plied with questions re­ quiring an omniclenfc Mind to answer, he simply stated: “1 am 'a novelist and of course lay no claim to authority on Such subjects/' Consider also the octogenarians, septuagenarians and centenar­ ians Who fill the papers with absurd secrets for long life *' One old woman says smoking a corncob pipe did it; another says scrubbing floors was repsonslble. One mart soys riding a horse gave him his longevity! another never getting more than a few hours deep., • . ■ 4■ i After a while the truth begins to dawn that they know no more about It than anyone else, hut they can’t admit' it. The old negro1who said the secret of his long life was “Because 1 was born so fa r back,” gave as valuable, and a much mote honest ans­ wer than most old people who divulge their longevity,” ' Also consider the distinguished fellow citizen, the specialist who have become famous in a single line, the inventors, outeuiiobile!manu­ facturers, millionaires and novelists who give oracular and worthless' opinions on education, history and religion, whether they have ever given them any study or no t , . ’ V„< Why is is th a t lu jo d tytypto are able, to admit the aelfevident factv (CopyrlsM.) A T THE house party #t the Cedars, ,the girls had sought to v.ulle away a few dull hours before the arrival of the men oa gatnrday after­ noon by writing what they called "passports to their hearts.” When Kate read from the passport aha bad written "height, very tail; nationality, Scotch descent; eyes, gray.” she as good a« admitted her preference to Donald McGuire, though she Insisted that the tallying of Donald to wliat she had written was Just a coinci­ dence, as she really had never given Donald a serious thought in her life. Maud Grayson had a perfectly clear Idea of the traits and features of tiie one who should hold the passport to her heart, though they certainly did not tally with any of the men who were coining to the house party. They did not tally, In fact, with anyone that Maud had ever known. The rdris lis­ tened eagerly as she read, hoping that It might disclose some preference for Tom or Bill or Larry—or even for Donald. These were her specifications: “Height,' six feet; build, slender hut strong; hair, heavy and dark; eyes, light brown; nose, straight; mouth, straight and defiant; profession, law­ yer or architect, certainly not a busi­ ness man; hobbles, books, tennis, fast cars or yachts," The next week Maud went to visit friends In the mountains and It was hot until another week had passed that she saw the girls of her sel again. This was at Kate’s party, the special excuse of the party being that Kate was going to announce her en­ gagement to DOiiald McGuire. Kute' never knew It but one of the girls hHd whispered to Donald that Kate ad- mired men of Scotch descent and that she liked gray eyes. Before the men arrived from tiie city tiie girls again got out their pass* ports. Maud-brought hers forth from her bag with some confusion. • “I think I’ve changed -my mind a little," she said, and scratched off “six feet," substituting "five feet, eight." Then in. place of "build, slender but strong," she wrote, "build, very strong, a little heavy," But for hair "heavy and dnrk" she substituted “light brown, and not too heavy—maybe just a little bnld.” Eyes changed from "light brpwn” to "gray," the nose be­ came short and broad and the straight defiant mouth became “big and pugna­ cious," What was written concerning the chosen profession she crossed off and the hobbles turned from "books, fast cars and yachts" to "fast horses and raising mushrooms/’ Kate read tlip changes. “It’s silly the way you just make It up as you go along. I think the person you have described would be coarse and com­ mon.” ,t ** “Maybe he, would be a little1course Ip a nice sort of way—but that’s bet­ ter than being top refined. Being a little coarse makes you strong arid domineering and downright," “Well, the description doesn’t tally with any of the men coming to this party,” laughed one of the other girls. "1 should chink not," front Kate who was hostess of the occasion. “Any­ one like that wouldn't be Invited, at least to my house. Imagine liking fast, horses and raising mushrooms!" Then the men nrrived and while they were sitting on the broud terrace at the aide of the house drinking cool­ ing summer' beverages, Kate made a quick departure toward the driveway. A rpther thick-set young man was dis­ mounting from a sleek, black horse, which he left standing beneath a tree while Kate led him forward to the group of guests. "This is my cousin, Tom Wales,” crowd, Find out their names for your­ self—it's so tiresome to Introduce you all round. I never could get Tom to come to one of our parties before—" Kate stopped short, so surprised was she to see her cousin standing there at Maud’s side apparently most delighted to ba-scRbiher, "Why, Cou­ sin Tom, that’ll why you asked to come,” Kate accused. “You’d met Maud until couldn't be happy until you had serin 1her again,” Meantime Maud stood looking more tharra little confused, hoping against that the girls had not paid too close attention to her revised pass­ port. Kate broke the short pause. "Tom* are you Interested In mush­ room growing?" she ssked, shaking a finger at him Then two cousinly anus were laid on his shoulders and Kate looked intently Into his face. “Yes, your mouth is big and pugna­ cious and, bless my heart, you’re get­ ting a little bald,” Maud blushed furiously and darted forth to pdt slender fingers on Kate’s lips. “Please don't," she begged, “I never dreamed that Tom .was your' cousin—and i didn’t think we’d ever see each other again. T Just met film when t WSs away last week—" That evening Tom found* time, to talk to his cousin for a few minutes, “I think I’ve fallen In love with Maud/’ he announced. "But It is quite hopeless. Last week she let me read fi, sort of description of the sort of man she’d admire. He was every­ thing that I am not/* “She’s changed her mind," Kate in­ formed him. “She’s revised the list until it fits you exactly.

He could guess the sacrifice 1t might mean to her to give up all the happy fussing over his birthday- Qn the other hand, he. couldn’t tell Clarissa Hint he'd rather let his mother do this for him. Oh, well, it was one of the things that were hound to happen, and he soon dismissed it from his mind. Not so Mother Barnes. She respond ed cheerfully enough to the good-night kiss, but she sat for a long time star­ ing- at the candles after the outer door had closed.

And a few dottftf down the street Clarissa was saying; “Anna, this Is Mr. Enmes* birthday, and I want to get the whole dinner .by myself," At 5:30 Mother Barnes, mindful of her promise to appear early at Clar­ issa’s, cautioned fatheir not to be late to the dinner, and went -swiftly down the street. The Winter twilight had deepened Into darkness, hut there was no sign of ft light a t Roger's, Strange! Clarissa must he potting: a few finish­ ing touches to the dinner. She’d go around to the kitchen door. No light In tito kitchen, either! After a preliminary knock she opened the door and stepped in.
