He is «* the opinion that by voting misted tickets-“ smaller men” are ^ r r f ^ w l .t into the government, threatening governmental stabil­ ity .. From a political standpoint Bettman may be right hut the voter* have the last say as to what candidates will be electee and what the issues really are. Trickery and deception prac­ ticed by professional politicians has driven voters from party ranks, Once the public makes up its mind that Certain candid dates should not be elected, thpre is no course party managers can follow other than accept the verdict, whether it suits or’not, NATIONAL BANK TAX INVALID SAYS COURT According to a decision handed down by Judge Hough in the United States Court, the Ohio law and method of collecting taxes on national banks in the state is invalid and conflicts with the federal law governing national banks. Ohio national banks objected and claimed a discrimination and evidently have proven their cla im .. These same banks had brought" injunction suits against county treasurers in most every county in the state and it is expected the Ohio courts will follow the decision laid down by Judge Hough. Jn the pleading before the court the national banks made it plain they did not desire or seek a method of escaping their just share o f taxes but did object to the valuation basis when - other financial institutions in competition were^iiot treated like­ wise, The State Tax Commission evidently refused to listen to reason and as a matter of self defense the national banks sought relief in the U. S. Courts. The situation is only the result o f our system of state government by commission which is usual­ ly composed o f politicians that must berepaid for party service. The action of the Tax Commission made few friends for Gov, Cooper among national banks yet the Governor, failed to heed the protest as he has in the conduct of the state banking de­ partment as well as the prohibition department. TARIFF AND WHAT OF THE FUTURE? The campaign is over but the tariff question is not settled. It has never been settled before or after any election thus far. It seems it is to be the one big problem for future settlement. W e have had tariff and free trade discussions for years. It has been tariff for protection and tariff for revenue. And yet no tariff bill has ever been passed that has not at some time been changed or substituted by a new one. During the past twenty-five years the tariff has become purely a sectional problem. Lumber interests in the great north west want a high tariff for protection against Canadian lumber Wheat farmers want a high tariff against Canadian wheat Steel interests demand a high tariff. Cotton and sugar interests of the south demand the same. On the other side of the ques­ tion sections that must buy lumber have not so much interest in . a high tariff, as a lower tariff generally means a lower price. The tariff is now a sectional problem and the public greatly divided. \ This year the country faces something new compared with former years. American manufacturers are going abroad and erecting factories where labor .is cheaper, taxes lower and closer to the desired market. By doing this American labor does ' not share in the opportunity to earn a living and the home manufacturer that has no plant abroad cannot compete and is forced to closedown. A t present there seematb be nib w ayto ' compel Americans to invest their money at home but there was evidently something more than cheap labor to attract investors obroad. Probably red tape regulation, inspection, supervision, and burdensome taxes have driven American manufacturers abroad? COMING ADMINISTRATION DIVIDED POLITICALLY When Governor-elect George White becomes governor next January he w ill have to deal with a Republican legislature. Governor Cooper, had both branches of the legislature in con­ trol o f his party, which many though would have been a good ihiiig. Judging from results,-politically as well as fro)n the standpoint of service to the people, we doubt that and look for less legislation and fairer laws to all the people when the new legiafature'gets into action. It will be impossible for the legisla­ ture to pass a bill over any veto the Governor-elect might ex­ ercise due to membership being.more evenly divided politically. 7 ~ During the campaign M r .W h ited ec Ia red fo r twerthings that evidently appealed to the people. That waB providing for a referendum on all tax or revenue measures and opposition T » W i t h a'cHpTsucKfas' a refer­ endum provides the lobby element will not be so keen to back additional tax measures, , While there is a great difference of opinion on the income tax plan it ho doubt brought much opposition to Governor Cooper in his campaign. This is a bad year to propose addi­ tional taxes if the people do not desire same. A state income must meet competition in selling products out of the state where , there are no income taxes, Ohio manufacturers have for the ’ past six or eight years suffered from the weight of state taxes, and with business not the best, feeling will be created by this new tax. The manufacturer must have a profit on what he sells and with competition as it is he cannot afford to be taxed again on that profit as an income. He must put as much of it on the article for sale as possible, or he must reduce his overhead and operating expense and this must come from labor. There are hundreds of thousands of .men and women on salaries In this state, and many of them have suffered reduc­ tions this past year. W ith the federal government collecting an income tax and the state, not only another but a much larg­ er tax, will create consternation. The percentage of people that would welcome any new tax i» naturally small, and yet the government must have revenue to function. It is generally admitted that Ohio is over burden­ ed With officeholders, many of whom are merely political hang- erton, for party purposes. If private industry must reduce its overhead to meet existing conditions and farm and well as home -owner do the same thing, it is high time the state pay roll be reduced. It has been estimated the state could drop fifty per cent Of its employees in many branches of the government and yet not impair the service expected by the people. During the administration of Governor Donahey the legis­ lature was Republican and the latter sought to tie the hands of the Governor when ever possible. As a result he had the elec­ tors evidently with him for he served three terms. It is to be hoped the Republicans in the coming legislature will at least effifbpffiMfo with the new executive for the good of the state a id a fp fo r political advantage, Any other course might re- MUblun the Donahey precedent. ' * /A rth u r Bdbbeuow Pehtice (J im to Stoop ari es Sixtoo* BUBoas i Tw i Sotaaol* Gave * Party A Surprise for Smith Tha voting and the nuisance are out of the way, heaven be praised, and the people can attend to real busi­ ness far removed from politics. Whether the election united you or not, comfort yourself with the though; that nothing is important excapt wnat the people themselvee do. If the ftfijr 000,000 will get to work without wait­ ing for the new year or a mUlenriium and keep their courage, we shall get out of our temporary difficulties. Politician* get jobs* ’but don’t do much. By the time they get oyer the excitement of being elected, it's time to be elected again. Have yon any idea what crime cost* the nation? The total amphntito $16,- 000,000,000 a year. There are about one million professional criminal* in the country, including the crop hi pro­ hibition supercriminal*. *■ The government could pension them at the rate o f $16,000 a year each, break even financially and save the lives taken by the criminals. Or the chief criminals could be profitably pensioned at $1’,000,000 a year each, leaving plenty foreman fry. ~ It cost* the nation $18,000,000,000 to takes,care of 1,000,000 criminals. And $5,000,000,000, less than one-thin of the crime bill, is the amount spent on 50,000,000 children in their parks, their schools, their playgrounds, and all welfare work. That’s a very nice picture of Amer­ ican civilization/ Observe crime, working on a smalt scale. John Passelli, twenty-five-year old racketeer, called “The Ape,” went to the hospital in Newark, N. J., with his head cut open, said he hac fallen and asked to remain overnight, although doctors said he might go home.' Later three gunmen walked up to. his private room. One held the nurse) while the other two shot Passelli to death in his bed. They left, threaten- ing to kill anybody that interfered. Nobody interfered. Marvelous, wonderful, amazing, far beyond the adjectives of any writer of circus advertising was the crown­ ing of Halle Selassie I as emperor of Abyssinia at Oddis Ababa) The emperor, you must know, is direct result of the1visit that the queen o f Sheba paid to •King Solo­ mon.- She.had a baby when she came home.

Sydney-Smithy British- wit,__£airlyr well satisfied with himself, as Is cus­ tomary with British wit* andwon-Wlts, askedthis -question “In the four quarters of the globe, who reads an American book, or goes to an American play, or looks at an American picture or statue?” The witty Smith would be surprised if he could come back. He would find all London going to American plays, musical and others. He would find the pictures of John Sargent, an American, selling for more than any British artist’s picture ever sold for within a century of his death, and he would read in the morning newspapers that the Nobel prize for literature, worth $46,360, goes to Sinclair Lewis, an American. He would also learn that Mr, Lewis’ books, their author still alive, have Sold 2,000,000 copies' and are popular with ’’highbrows” in England, Sweden, Germany and else­ where. wwiwwa)ii*W,«wmWMwitouiiMi>iiil>irtiiniMHiiminiia«tiw<miimwiiniiinni>Hrtnrt>miw»iiiiiei*ni*toiw< F t m j m i m i REPAIRED and UPHOLSTERED In Readt Of Everybody esHHoerner PHONE .
