Entered at the Post Office, Cedarville, Ohio, October 31,1887, a# second class matter, __ ____ _____ FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1933 REPUBLICAN CITY BOSSES NOT DEAD YET The Republican city bosses that have brought the party to more defeats in the past twenty-five years in this state still want to act as official pall bearers at future elections and thus be in position to deal with interests that profit not only off the party but the state as well. Under a call from Ed. D. Schorr, state chairman, and a cog in the discredited Cincinnati Republican machine, which was shelved by his fellow citizens last month, gathered the faith­ ful followers on Tuesday in Columbus to “ rehabilitate the party,” what ever that is. Based on past performance such an attempt is like raising the dead from the grave. If Schorr has his way all candidates for state offices must go to the bosses to get the “ O K” before they should announce for a state office, or to have a more perfect arrangement the bosses would have all candidates picked at a pre-primary con­ vention before they could enter a primary. This would be de­ feat the purpose of the primary law and is a direct challenge and a dirty insult to the independence and intelligence of the Republicans in the state. It makes no difference what plan the Schorrs and Tafts present, the rank and file of the Republican party in the state are against it and the bosses might as well be told today as next June. We predict that the Schorr plan could not get the support of a half dozen newspapers in the state and we are suife rural county. organizations have had enough of the city boss control. The Republican party has been on the auction block so long in Ohio to be used by special interests, once success is evident, even the special interests become divided and those not so fortunate as to get the inside immediately start in to wrecking the ship. The time is here now to eliminate leader­ ship of the Schorr type or there will be no “ rehabilition” but plenty of county endorsements with the coming of the New Year. BIG BANKS CRY FOR LITTLE BANKS The wail going up by big eastern banks that the-new bank­ ing law that provides for guaranteed bank deposits is to burden little banks sounds to us like the “ fellow that whistles while going across the graveyard at night.” The Word out of Columbus is that ninety per cent of Ohio banks will be ready to meet the terms of the new law speakt volumes and must be an answer that the big banks are not looking for. . • The new law makes illegal many practices o f both large and small banks that have prevailed for years past. The public knows more about banking today than at anytime in the pas fifty years and it has been a bitter lesson to hundreds of thou i2_sand of depositors. Even many stockholders are wiser today if they have had to face the double liability law owing to closec banks. We do not believe the honest banker has any great serious objections to the principle of the new law. It may not be letter perfect but it can be improved as experience demands or the burdensome features modified after given a trial. The Senate investigating committee that has been uncover ing banking practices in New York proves that the time haf come when the Wall Street bankers must be unhorsed. Westerr bankers now know that in keeping surplus funds in New Yorl they were but playing into the hands of banks that were usinf funds purely for speculative purposes while legitimate business could not get loans. The. tears of big bankers and their Senators will have no effect on'the ayerage citizen. LIQUOR CONTROL LAWS COME NEXT Now that the legislature is in session to pass liquor control legislation with what ever tax goes with it the question of pro­ hibition no longer is an issue from a legal standpoint. What should be the duty of a known dry member of the legislature? He will have no opportunity of voting “ No” on the wet or dry cause. Different measures will be introduced to legalize the sale of liquor either by state control or by the glass What plan is the best we do not" believe yoii could get a unani­ mous decision in any dozen citizens. For this reason dry mem­ bers must vote on the plan they think will give the public the most protection. As must be expected the state control plan has many favor­ able points but With a $2.50 upset price per quart for liquor we do not believe the bootlegger will be put out of business. Whether it should be sold only in hotels and restaurants is another questipn hard to decide. It has its favorable and un favorable arguments. The campaign for repeal was made on the plea that the old time saloon must not come back but now We find distillers demanding such institutions and sale by the glass. If sale was only, confined to saloons it probably could be better policed. If the saloon was not burdened with stiff regulatory laws and allowed to take its Old place, then prohibition would soon be on its way back. It took fifty years to get a fifteen year trial of prohibition and it is going to be many years before it will return. The tax situation in the nation, is to be so heavy for years to come that prohibition may have trouble of even being a minor issue. The .doerseof today will rule the world tomorrow. False pride and fat purses keep prosperity for the beauty Shops. If a man has no conscience why make the mistake of try­ ing to find a substitute? Don't be too dignified, you will feel better if you loosen up a little. Good insurance for the whole family— safety first. The world may be crowded but there is always room for argument. l U M n v F f ) UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson (By REV. r . B. PITZWATER. D. D,.

He was bound for Je­ rusalem. tin bis journey thither he took up bis abode with Philip who had so successfully wrought as an evangelist in the early days of the church. While entertained in this home, Agabus, by symbolic act using Puul’s girdle, portrayed the binding of Paul at Jerusalem. The meaning of the words of the disciples at Tyre is to be understood in the light of the Spirit’s revelation through Agabus. To the Tyrian disciples the Spirit mnde known the fact that suffering awaited Paul. To AgabuB Uie Spirit mnde known what kind of suffering. The same Spirit made known to Paul what awaited him at Jerusalem and sent him forward into it. il. Paul before Felix (Acts 24 :l-27> . 1. Paul arrested In Jerusalem (Acts 21:18-40). Paul, at the advice of the elders of the church of Jerusalem - took a Jewish vow in order to con dilate the Jews. Even if It did con- cilinte the Jewish brethren, it greatly enraged the unbelieving Jews, Incit­ ing them to mob Paul. On the basis of supposition these maddened Jews dragged him from the temple and beni him unmercifully, intending to put him to death. 2. Paul accused (Acts 24:1-9). Paul is now in the hands of Felix who de­ termined to hear his case after his ac­ cusers had come from Jerusalem. The case against him was formally presented by Tertulliis, a Roman law yer. The charge contained four counts: , (u) A pestilent fellow (v. 5). This would indicate a fellow utterly base and corrupt—a plague. (b) An inciter of rebellion (v. B). This they hoped jvnuld bring him into conflict with the Roman power. (c) The ringleader o f a sect (5) l'hc .aim in this charge was to throw contempt and suspiclt. upon the Christians, thereby bringing Paul into deeper trouble. (d) Profanity of the temple (v. 6), In this charge they wilfully * sup­ pressed facts. I 3. Paul defends himself (w . 10-21). This defense Is a superb example of the strength and dignity of a man whose life Is actuated by a noble pur­ pose. Observe: (n) Paul’s frankness and courtesy (v. 10). He freely recognized the fact that Felix had been ruler long enough to be able to form a'just judgment, and assumed that 'Felix would render a decision on the basts of facts. (b) Charge of sedition denied (rv. 11, 12). He shbwed the utter falsity of the charge on the ground of the shortness of time, and also on the ground of his conduct vhiie In the temple, even challenging proof of their accusation. (c) Charge of heresy (w , 14-16). This he met by a concession and a de­ nial, He admitted that he was of this •'way” which they called heresy, but denied that Christians were heretics, lie showed that his actions were In keeping with the Hebrew religion, worshiping the same God, believing in the same Scriptures and had the same hope of a coming resurrection of the dead. 4. Felix trembles before Paul (vv. 22-27). Wicked as was Felix, Paul’s manner won his favor thotigh It did not secure the apostle’s release. Ill, Paul bsfors Agrippa (Acts 23:26). The occasion of his appearing be­ fore Agrippa was the visit of Agrippa and Bernice to Festus. More than two years had elapsed since the trial be­ fore Felix. During this time the Jew­ ish hatred for him had not abated, Upon tbe arrival o f these guests they expressed a desire to hear Paul. Be­ fore these distinguished personages Paul boldly witnessed. The gospel should be preached to all, regardless of wealth or station In life. As a re­ sult of Paul's defense Agrippa was almost persuaded. “ Once a man and twice a child" might be applied to the controversy that is raging at present between some o f the so-called big men, senators and even the clergy. Men always hay« differed on the silver and gold issue for monetary standards [conditions. When borrowers fail on payment of both interest and prin­ cipal then foreclosure follows. Legal liquor became available in sixteen states Tuesday whether you can get it or not.
