The Waverly Watchman says petition for
Ex-Sheriff Cherington for the position of War
den, was extensively circulated and signed in
that place, the Democrats signing for two
reasons: They didn't believe there would be
any change, and if there should be, they would
like Cherington for the place. That's what
they all say
The Chilicothe Leader thus speaks of Mr..
Cherington's candidacy for the position of
Warden: sfGov. Foraker ought to know w. B.
Cherington, of Jackson. and if he does know
him, Mr.. Cherington should require no indorse-
ments, or petitions, or recommendations for
the position to which he aspires The state of
Ohio has no more competent man for the posi-
ton of warden of the penitentiary; and that
should be the first consideration in making a
selection. A first class man is hard to find and
when once found. other considerations should
weigh lightly in the balance in comparison.
We trust Gov. Foraker will be able to see his
way clear to Mr.. Cherington's appointment.
