Public sentiment turned and it was not long until the candidate that had a great list of paid workers was about the easiest to defeat. The past few years we have few if any paid political workers in this county. , . . With the advent of women being given an equal status at the polls it was assumed that conditions would still be raised to a higher level. Instead the present’ycar finds more paid women political workers than we have ever heard of. This practice became more general two years ago when the millionaire candidates sought a governorship birth. It has been on the increase ever since. In the presidential primary m April the oil scandal money was used to employ certain women m the hope of defeating Herbert Hoover. We are very sorry to say" that one Greene county woman that is supposed to head a so- called reform group was paid $200 for her services to pass the scandal used against Hoover. It was only a few weeks ago that a certain state candidate informed us this same woman offered her services in his behalf but he would have to put up $200 in advariee, He declined! the offer. The time is now here to sift the grafting women politicians from the number of women that-really have an interest in state and local affairs. The paid woman politician has but one object and that is to gain financial profit forherself and in this county We have some that haveho other means qf making a livelihood. They use any method possible to club certain people to accept their story and urge them to pass it on, It is not necessary to ■mention names. The public must stop and consider and if serious thought is given the matter you, will, at once satisfy yourself that these women represent no different standard of ,citizenship, than the ward heelers that used to lead a weak- minded voter behind some building to hand him two dollars to, vote a certain ticket. ^ I f the present practice is to Continue on the part o f the women politicians we will urge the men folks to take a hand also and help spread this financial prosperity' in a wider circle, so that more people can benefit from it. M •3*. , . * MOSQtritQS AND VACATIONISTS / The vacationist that decides fo spend a Week or so at some water resort usually makes up his. mmd that he wilt have the pesky mosquito to contend with1. As’ we travel,about we find "many beautiful summer resorts located where the mosquito has ‘ an abode. *It seems to be taken for granted that the pest will be there and no complaint is hiade against it. * , ’All of this is quite contrary to Cedarvillians who have had experience at home that has been anything but pleasant in deal ing,with the little fellows that taunt us in and out of doors, We are inclined to view the local situation for different~after seeing what many sfcmmer resorts must contend with. These places have no paper mills within hundreds of miles to lay the blame bn. Boggy places and swamps have been treated with oil but the mosquito comes just the same, „ The Chicago Tribune-takes recognition of the situation and comments as follows: , • ‘ “In spite of mosquito abatement campaigns on- a compre hensive scale, the mosquitoes this year are, a greater nuisance than they .have been for some„years in many sections of the city and its suburbs. That is a depressing fact, but it might as well be faced. * \ ’ ' ’ • • “The season has been perfect for mosquitos.. Thdmosqmto breeds in standing water. Ordinarily there is little standing water in the Chicago region, and for that reason mosquito ex- , parts have said that.the locality is not a natural mosquito range. The soaking rains of June and July have created a condition that is not ordinarily-present and, against which ordinary • mosquito prevention methods have accomplished little. ‘ “We do not believe that this year’s experience justifies the conclusion that subsequent attempts at abatement will not succeed. It does, perhaps, whether the methods employed here are sound- There are few Insects Whose life histories and habits are as well known as those of the mosquito. Where the mosquito imperils life and health he has been eradicated in spite of natural conditions which favor his existence. The present situa tion does not prove that a persistent effort cannot accomplish the same result here,” , . A BIG CITY LOOKS TO THE FUTURE Some months ago Chicago elected as mayor of the city “Big Bill” Thompson, on a platform of an open town anc “America for Americans.” The city has "had the open town plan with all that usually follow;/it.- His Honor Was so much aroused that he feared. King George, of England, woulc eventually govern us so to create an adverse public sentimen he ordered certain public school text books be dropped that the younger generation might not know that England existed. This was all in his campaign promise to make Chicago a typica German city to capture that vote. After months as head of the city, Thompson finds himsel a discredited politician and his organization, including “ gang land,” disrupted. Bad management,- poor police service, waste and graft in contracts, has turned the great majority of Chicago citizens away from its idol of only a few months ago. Thomp son’s first big blow delt him was when the Hoover forces won last April. Gang politicians in Chicago as in Ohio, have no use for a man of Hoover’s type. But the Thompsons, Coles, Pem bertons, Daughertys, are slowly but surely being cast aside in national, state and municipal affairs. The public wants no more of that kind of government. While Chicago has had a black eye under her present municipal government, the civic leaders have not lost lippe and are striving to make the city bigger and better along all lines. From the many private improvements under way there is indication that these men face the future of the city with a willingness to carry on as if nothing had happened, . Away back in 1893 Chicago celebrated with the World’; Fair, an exposition that started the entire world. Plans are now under way for another such event on a larger scale for 1933, At this date a new World’s Fair grounds is being built by filling in a part of Lake Michigan* One might be inclined to think this an impossible task but it is,not and could not be with the re sources the city has. Less than twenty-five years ago Lake Michigan covered the site of the famous Field Museum, an institution that is a university in itself. This site as well as a public park anc several miles of beautiful boulevards would not be available had the lake not been filled in for that purpose. Visitors to Chicago twenty-five years ago and again this year can only see the magnitude of accomplishments. They also are convinced that Chicago will have a greater World’s Fair five years hence than was witnesse4 by millions o f people back in 1893, The failure of one man as an executive of a great city is only temporary!, Sometimes the public is fooled, on false promises and strange doctrines but there will be another change in the near future, Chicago’s reputation at present is not the best and it Will be “Big Bill’ Thompson’s administration that will turn the city’s face in another direction* nesot* give* one a’ broad view o f crop condition* and the prospects for the season* - From «, crop, standpoint interest; center* in corn prospects. While there are thousands o f acres o f corn that can be seen on such, a trip the most noticeable feature was a section here"5 and there with excellent prospects, while another section could not be egarded favorable. There are sections o f Indiana and Illinois that will not have the usual corn crop; The cold wet weather evidently held the crop back, As we neared Madison, Wisconsin, it waa easily seen that the crop in that- section o f the state was about on par, if not better, that in this sec tion o f Ohio, It was near LaCrosse, Wis., much farther north, that we found the corn farther advanced and eldom ■was there a poor field* In Minnesota, which is not regarded a strictly com producing state, were thousands o f acres of good corn. In the northern part o f Wisconsin the crop on the averdge will not be up to average. - - ' The wheat prop after ; leaving Indiana and part o f Illinois was good. In the spring wheat $fection_it is re ported excellent and a ‘ very large acerage that a week ago "was being cut. Great tracts o f oats and barley in all foUr states promises- an un usually large crop. Ohio farmers have reached the" stage where a small amount o f hay is har vested ^as in the years gone by. In the northern states Jthere seems to ^be no end to the finest crop o f timothy hay we have ever seen. In’a few sec tions we find much sweet-clover has been harvested, I f potatoes are one dollar a bushel this Wea"r the average farmer in the ahove mentioned states will have found his prosperity. Hundreds o f thous ands o f acres o f potatoes are now in broom and promise one o f tbe largest crops in years. , Rainfall has been more plentiful in Wisconson and Minnesota according, to indications as all kinds o f vegetation looks tlie best. While ;Wisconson is a state o f diversified . agricultural interests it depends largely on the daily branch and large dairy herds can be found everywhere "We were disappointed and expected to toe -more hogs not oply in Wisconsin hut Minnesota. Hundreds o f thousands o f acres of fine pasture land abounded In each o f these states but we recall Of only two herds o f feeding cattle that could be -seen from the road. The dairy cattle in the main are Holstein Where fru it trees were found there was evidence o f good crops. It was unusual fo r an Ohioan to find the northern .orchards loaded with cherries ready fo r picking, The markets in the cities* abounded with cherries and red tasberries around ten cents quart. ■ ■ • . . Minnesota and Wisconson are won derful states and noted fo r their land scape Views. Both have good roads that attract the tourist to .the many lakes and watering places that abound The state o f Minnesota alone has more than 1,600 lakes, Wisconsin has the best market roads that we have^yet had the pleas ure to drive, over. Hundreds and hUndrgds o f miles Of roads are cement or gravel oiled. President Coolidge |has put Wisconsin "on the riiap ns a summer resort and the state is -spend ing great sums to keep roads in per fect condition fo r the tourist.

Attorney Frank L, Johnson, a can didate for the Republican nomination to congress, is out with a mew plan' that is being discussed in neighboring counties in. the district. As taxation is an important item not only to the farmer hut* to the average home owner, ,Mr, Johnson advocates that an amusement tax created by the federal ■government to be used ex clusively in. support ■o f the public schools o f the country 'and by so do ing the present tax could be disposed with. He contends that more -than, fifty per cent o f all tax money goes Lo the Uppport o f the schools, ( Ohio rural school districts ca rry .a heavy tax to support the schools to educate the young, most o f whom enter voca tions that take them to other states for permenant residence, o r ,t o the cities within their own state, By this method the productive power o f the .educated youth has not beei\ retained in the district where the cost was levied to the form o f taxes. Mr, Johnson contend that education is a the other without a 'break. It would __ >j_g kum be more than interesting fo r tbe sheet to show just how much money Mar-1 shall has drawn from th# county, treasurer in the past twenty Of more ] years. Having drawn well on to ffi ! or 40 thousand dollars o f the tax pay- ’ ers money, would indicate that it i» • hard to leave the public teat and get j back to earning money by the sweat o f i the brpw like the laborer, the farm er? and the many women t b i t age struggling over the washtub to keep ‘ a family o f children in food and clothing. • , '. „■ .* * ... * . . * Marshall is now asking fo r a third term as prosecutor and ha# as his opponent Attorney William Howard, o f Xenia, one o f the highly esteemed members o f the Greene County B a r,' Mr. Howard Has never" before aspired 1 to county office and i f passing a good | thing around is in .order he should, have the nomination .for a number o f reasons.
