Editorial OUR CANDIDATES No amount of raving or belit­ tling candidates of the opposite political party will strengthen the cause of the Republican candi­ dates. Governor Herbert is not an experiment- He has served Ohio —notably well—for two years, and his native ability is enhanced by that experience to make even a better- executive for the coming two years—maybe more. Thomas Dewey has a record for public ser­ vice that is unsurpassed. Un­ equaled. Dewey will be the best president the United States has had in a long time, and the equal ox any president the country has ever had in ability and experience. Neither Herbert nor Dewey is an experiment. Not in the whole country are there two sounder, saner, safer men. THE DRAFT AGAIN Again the boys of the country, the young men on whom the hopes of America and the world de­ pend, are to be drafted for mili­ tary training. A peacetime draft is a new idea in our democracy. Far be it from a country editor, engrossed in the day-and-night task of getting out two weekly papers, to pose as an authority oh the matter. This is the situation; Congress passed the law. Con­ gress studied it seriously and long. Debated it. Brought every argument to bear on it. Heard evary evidence for and against it. Then enacted the law. This being a representative government, and congressmen acting as the peo­ ple’s representatives, the draft law by American principles is the people's decision on the matter. That’s that. Society REUNION Members of the Ramsey and Bull families gathered a t the home of Mr. and Mrs. Paul L. Ramsey for their annual reunion, Monday, July 5.

BONDS, PREFERRED -1948 A t the Courthouse File Suit A highway accident on Route 72, between Jamestown and Bow­ ersville, last June 13, is the basis for two civil suits seeking a to­ tal of $1,515 in damages. Cecil E. Sprinkle and his wife, Qraanna, both of Jamestown, are plaintiffs, naming Vernon Staf­ ford, of Jamestown, as defendant. Smith & Smith, Xenia law firm, is representing the Sprinkles. Mrs. Sprinkle asks $1,000 for injuries suffered in the auto-truck collision. Stafford is named be­ cause his son, Robert, a minor, was driving the truck owned by the father. In the other case, Sprinkle asks $415 to compensate him for damages to his car and $100 for the loss of its services. Confirm Sales Common Pleas Judge. Frank L. Johnson has confirmed sales in two different cases pending in Ms court. Sale of real estate was ap­ proved in an action brought by Martha V.
