G O V E RN O R SH IP SH O U LD N O T BE LO ST S IG H T O F The Herald has been much interested in the success of an old friend and fellow publisher, Clarence J. Brown, candidate for the. nomination of governor on the Republican ticket. As a result o f the Congressional fight we hope the public will keep in mind Mr. Brown. The Gowdy-Marshall faction of the party is doing little or nothing for Mr. Brown, other than giving him a party endorsement. Both are more interested in the Congres­ sional contest and playing peanut politics to elect a committee The fact that Marshall is making combinations with supporters 1 wm u carried in their favor next of Ingals in some places and Cooper backers in other places, is November.' The danger is that the proof that organization support for Brown is lacking in Greene successful Republican'nominee maybe county—and it cannot be denied. For this one reason we ask J slaughtered by friends of the other support for Mr,"Brown Tuesday. This is ths last week o f tbs cam- paign before the primary and with it we have had the fewest number o f candidates about town we have had in years. The contest for governor between Brown, Ingals and Cooper gets warm between the -publicity men and' some sarcastic comment is given out every few days. The Democrats look on with glee hoping the feeling W H 0 3 E Y A R D ST IC K IS C O R R E C T ? This is the season o f’ political endorsements, usually the “Bought and Paid For” brand. Not always in cash but in many other ways that reaches into the pocket of the average citizen. Much of our politics today is a “ racket” . Both weta-drye use it in many quarters to get something over. But speaking o f en­ dorsements, “ H qw *can the Anti Saloon League, oppose certain candidates on dry grounds and publically endorse Judge Flor­ ence Allen, as “ satisfactory” , when she is running on a wet plat­ form in Cuyahoga county? Those who know politics know’of course that a candidate for congress or anyother office could not toe elected from that county unless on a “ wet” platform. Ihe-League musthave two different yardsticks for. measuring congressional'candidates. two opposing candidates. Local developments this week were no doubt a surprise to hundreds who depended on banking facilities.

FROM TH E “ ST ICK S ” IS R IG H T We have had a Secretary o f State for nearly three terms hut you probably never thought much about It even though he came from the “ sticks” , the kind of country found in Greene county, for Clintpn county, is the home of Clarence J. Brown, now Secretary o f State and candidate for governor at the pri­ mary Tuesday.... Maurice Maschke, Cleveland boss, says that “ Clarence Brown could not have the urban viewpoint, coming from the sticks.” Maschke of course has no use for Mr. Browr, as secretary of state,-because the gentleman from the “ sticks” fired his Cuyahoga county election board a few years ago owing to corrupt elections. To Maurice that was an infringment on his rights as a political boss. Maschke is supporting the Hoover administration candi­ date, David S. Ingals, but that ist.no fault o f Mr. Ingals. It is unfortunate that he must Carry the Walter Brown label for we believe the rural sections^ will resent the Maschke statement in support of Mr. Clarence Brown for governor Tuesday. The national administration is going to have all it can handle with­ out meddling in Ohio elections. The Hoover suction sweepei has swept billions of our money across th e . ocean to Europe, paralyzing business, wrecking farm prices and burdening the nation to feed the unemployed. From statements made by Mr. Maschke that if it takes his Candidate to win Ohio this fall, we venture the statement the Hoover administration will he a mill­ stone; to all Republican candidates and Republicans had better be talking about it before the national convention, than making excuses, apologies and I-told-you-sos next November.

Only those in active touch with law-making bodies really know. There is*a form o f lobbying that is proper; All interests have a right to have a representative t o ‘look after proposed laws that may be benificial. The reason many organizations are forced to em­ ployee a. lobbyist is for protection. There ate a number o f such parasites in Ohio. We have in mind a member of the Ohio leg­ islature that introduced what was known as a “ milker” bill. It was a'proposed law that would be detrimental to certain busi­ ness. Shortly after the bill was introduced a lobbyist, close political associate of the author of the proposed law, calls on a Springfield business man, to represent his interests, on the be­ lief that he could kill the bill. When asked' what his fee would be he was told $5,000.00. That same year this lobbyist pur­ chased a $80,000 home in an exclusive section of Columbus, his first home. It was a co-incident that during that same session the author o f the bill we refer purchased a fine home in his city. The lobbyist boasted to a friend following adjournment o f that session that he had made $60,000 that year.

The Loan Association has had a remark­ able record for, more than thirty years and all funds are invested only on first mortgage real estate. The present situation will be embarrasing to many for several days but the public should keep in mind every,effort will he made by the association to render the best service possible. It is early yet .to even predict a -statement whether an effort will-he made to reorganize the hank. This much can he predicted. A community such as this cannot be and will not be without a bank longer than necessary.

These organ­ izations along with private citizens wi^ have a new experience but in due time by exercising ^patience things will be worked out. We know our citizens have faith in the community as a whole. This faith with co-opera­ tion will bring results in .the end. Any other course only magnifies our pres­ ent trouble.

And the public has to stand the gouge. Ohio’s oldest newspaper woman, Alice E. Van Sickle, Ohio’s oldest newspaper; Woman, aged 86, died at her home in Csrdington, Sunday. She began writing for newspapers at the age of 14 and had hoped to live until she was 90. She was known to most every newspaper publisher in Ohio who ever attended newspaper gather­ ings. She taught school for a short time in Oxford, O., hut gave up that work to return to journalism. She edited a paper at College Corner and later went to Hamilton. From there she became connected with the old Gazette in Springfield. Thirty years ago she located in Csrdington and for the past fifteen years contributed a column “Notes by the Way’*, to the Independent besides representing a number of daily papers in Ohio as a correspondent. For' the past eighteen months she has given weekly talks over the^tfadio station WAIU.. She was a staunch Republican and took an active part in for ter Governor Myers Y» Cooper’s last campaign. She fre­ quently spoke at chapel in the pen­ itentiary where she was known as “ Mother Van Sickle.” The deceased Was one o f few Ohio women that ever devoted her life to newspaper work, Word from Washington does not indi­ cate that Congress is making much headway in adopting a plan to reduce the cost of government to enable a reduction in taxes. The Senate has voted to increase postage from two to three cents and higher postage for all newspapers and magazines. Congress fails thus far to do away with the franking privilege whereby membaru get free use o f the mails for trunks, tires, family washing or whatever tha members want to send back home. All this gones on And adds to the huge deficit along with scores o f million dollar postoffice buildings. The bust/ ness o f the government is in t i» hands o f officialdom. The average citisen as a taxpayer ha* little to say. conditions is worthwhile to me.' The amount of noise raised about this and that its nothing more than the cry of pur [office holding class to keep the mind o f people o ff the real issue— lower cost o f government. Our people have been busy spending the past few years and’ let control o f government pass into the office holding class and now we must pay the bill with higher.*] taxes, which mean* higher cost- on a llwe must buy. I was disgusted several days ago when I heard a. farm speaker over the radio trying to inflame one class against another class, He even'said Jesus Christ, Patrick Henry, Jane Adams and Abraham Lincoln were radicals and the thought came to me that neither were demagogues.. What we must have from wry viewpoint as a fanner all classes united .for one common cause, or wp never will lift ourselves from this economic turmoil What we need and must have is a ittle more faith in God; a little more >f the old-fashioned home-training for our children and' banish much o f the selfishness in the yorld. We are suf­ fering too from tee betrayal o f cer­ tain financial interest# that have a backdoor entrance to high govern­ ment offices. Some o f these, days the demagogues in Congress will be sent back home to stay and we should not send fiew ones there. . These are toying times and I think we have good reason to believe it is one way o f punishment tha Almighty is using to check Us and give us more time to think o f our future* The poor «re will always hay* and thfey have had little to loos* but how the unjust profits o f many that made their liv­ ing in the stockmarket have wither­ ed until Charles Schawb, steel mag­ net, said “ there are no more wealthy men in this country.” I f this is a punishment we must accept it just as. they did in Bible times. After all it may be a blessing that we must pause to take stock o f ourselves. We are all suffering from individual negli gence in permitting onr government control to be held by those who profit in politics. The reward from such a plan is the same today as in the his tory of the world under the oldest rulers, is more and more taxes until there is confiscation o f property for tha benefit o f those who live o l f the state and nation and the demagogue is our worst enemy and will continue to keep classes divided unless we arise to stop it, - For the Common Cause of All The home o f Mrs, Jane McCullough, Clifton, was damaged by fire ' last Thursday noon, A spark from the flue was supposed to have started the ,re which damaged the roof but discover­ ed in time to save the house.
