LET’S KEEP THE BOAT RIDING STEADY The gust of wind let; loose against the referendum on the justice of peace salary graft bill will have a tendency to make the boat ride sideways with some danger of overturning. To keep the boat steady in its course the electorate should have all the facta from both aides before making a hasty decision. There seems to be some soreness over the fact that the citi­ zens of Ohio are to have a chance of expressing approval or disapproval of the justice salary graft law that if endorsed will make the income to justices, With not a cent invested, more than what a farmer can net on any 100 acres of land. That is the economic side ‘of the question. Court for profit to officials or to the taxpayers? • ■ . The referendum is now a part of the constitution. Yet we are told the 115,000 signers to the petitions had no right to sign same and in so doing many did so under a misrepresentation, as if only the uninformed were asked to sign—a cutting reflec­ tion to the thousands of dry automobile owners who had no hes­ itancy in affixing their names. If the graft measure is all its sponsors claim it is, why tlien\al! this fume and fuss? The charge is made that certain wet interests are respon­ sible for the referendum, and not the automobile clubs backed by thousands of auto owners, members or not. The sponsors of the justice bill have shifted and making those who might have signed the petitions the issue instead of the bill it self. On the bases of personality the .public should consider the friends of the sponsor of the bill, not the author, for they are not the one and same person. Senator (?) Marshall, who had'the pleasure of having his name connected with a bill written by another pei’son, charges that wet leaders.are using the automobile clubs to hid behind. Ex-Senator Gardner, Cincinnati, is attorney for the Cincinnati Automobile Club. During Gardner’s- term ha Was floor-leader of the upper house and Senator (?) Marshall made a lengthy speech seconding Gardner for the honor, , In that session Marshall had a prominent post on a Utility commit­ tee named by utility, lobbyists, one of whom was a former paid lobbyist for the Cincinnati liquor interests.. This should give the public the low .down on the wet and dry issue injected.in the fight on the justice bill. What the proposed bill provides, the average layman is not in position to .even"predict. That’s the way laws are Writ­ ten now-a-days. They-are written by attorneys for the use and profit Of attorneys, wet or dry. The best legal advice we can get is that the bill does not provide for all that the sponsors claim for it. A well known dry judge in a nearby county informs us the bill is a disgrace to the legal profession and an insult to the United States Supreme Court, and will prove more costly to the tax payers than any possible profit that can be rightly earned by it. . . . Senator (?) Marshall says the justice salary bill was intro duced a month before the United States Supreme Court held the old law unconstitutional. He says he agrees with Taft’s view yet certain dry leaders are saying that Taft is wet. The Sena tor (?) also says it was offered to correct" the hid law in as much as there was some question about it being fair. The Anti- SaloonLeague officials, only part of them, endorse the graft law and leader^ say they never attacked the old law. Yet the Supreme.Cbhtt heard a league attorney, defend the law when it .Was attacked and later held unconstitutional, Some where in the controversy is a place for the truth serum treatment. When, the bill was before the. legislature the commercial ized justice of peace lobby made itself prominent about, the legislature. A score or more half-bred foreigners who had been reaping $5,009 salaries from motorists as well an liquor cases, and in Afew instances qfficers of these courts, selling captured liqqor to favorite and protected- bootleggers, fought a desper ate fight to have the bill providing for a $3,009 salary passed, in view of the Supreme Court putting them out of business. This angle, should be taken into consideration also by the voters. As a suggestion to the Anti Saloon League the public would Welcome a statement about the famous liqqoreparty at a'Colum­ bus hotel when the utility lobbyists'honored the ..Fifth-Sixth Senator and others for voting to continue a corrupt utility rate making-body in power that higher rates could be taken from the pockets of Ohioans for the enrichment of the telephone trust and gas companies.

Following the death of David, Solo­ mon was anointed Wag (1 Kings 1:0-40). Duvld had failed to show the people who should be king after him (Vj CO). Though an old nmn. he Is- stirred Into action by the combined ap­ peals of IJathslieba and Nathan, lie Immediately-sent for the faithful throe —JSadok, Nathan and Beniuh, and com­ manded then) to anoint Solomon king 1. God’s Gracious Offer (vv. 4. 5) Solomon made u lavish sacrifice, to the Lord, The magnitude of the offer Ing shows that he had strong impulses toward God and that he was unwilling to hold anything back from God. , Pol lowing the sacrifice, the Lord made to him this gracious offer, This offer was not on the basis, that the/Lord .cared for the number of animals, hut vthe .attitude of the man's heart toward him. “Ask what 1 shall give thee." placed very wide possibilities before the king. 0<«d, as It were, si •"'■■d blank' checks and t.urrjed them ove. to Solomon to fill In any amount tlmt h|s heart desired. This was not a reckless act on the part of OmJ, for He foiVknoW what was In ‘Solomon's heart to ask. This offer to Solomon Is - no exceptional one. for opportu­ nities equally limitless are plueed he ■ fpre us, God is saying to every om- of His children, “Ask and It shall be given you." The matter with Its 'limi­ tations Is placed before us In John 15 ;7. "If ye abide in ,Me and My words abide* In you, ye shall ask what' ye will, and it shall be done unto you." These unlimited ^offers nro Open to those who abide in Christ arid let His words abide in them, U. Solomon’s Wise Choice (vv. fi-fi) The Lord’s gracious Offer brought the king face to face with five re­ sponsibility of making a choice There was no middle course open to him God deals with all His children in speh a way that a - choice must be made by them. Solomon was keenly aware Of the diflienlty and responsi­ bility of his position. David was a- great king. For a young man to take up the wprkt of an Illustrious father - and -push it' to completion IS a most difficult task. Comparatively few ever succeed. -Besides this, lie had to deal with •the, disturbing elements' which hod been set ih motion by the usurper, Adonijalu Being made to shoulder so great a responsibility so''suddenly brought him to keenly feel his insuf­ ficiency,. in his reply to God he plead-' ed that his being king was hot of his own choice but an get of God's loving kindness. He argued tlmt. since God hnd made him king, He was bound to qualify hitn to fill the pl.ioe. Al! who have been called of God to fill posi­ tions of, honor and trust can surely exercise that same .boldness faith. When called to positions of honor and trust we should numbly present, our­ selves before. God for help. To fee) ourselves unworthy and unlit for groat and responsibiie' work and to cast our­ selves upon God- for help Is-hot cow- -nrdice, but a good sign tlmt we shall not fail at the critical moment. Solo-' molds object In asking for wisdom was not-for display but.for the good of others, 111, God’s Unstinted Gift (vv. 10-15). ' Solomon’s speech pleased the Lord. GOd gave* him more than he asked. Because he put wisdom first, God saw that he could be trusted with material good also. Christ saw the same tiling when He said. “Seek ye first the king­ dom of God, and His righteousness: and all these things shall be added unto you’’ (Matt. 0 :33), He who puts God and spiritual things first In time and importance can be trusted with temporal things. That which God promised him above what he nsked was riches, honor and length of days. All who feel the lack of .wisdom can go to God with confidence (Jos. 1 :5). God blessed Solomon with n singular­ ly comprehensive mind (1 Kings, 4:29-34). lie was a botanist, zoologist, architect, poet and moral philosopher.
