What Others Say.

for Ohio when it becomes the pio'
nccr in any pathway Of progress.
IIt is worth 50 much to know that
Ohio has within its confines some
thing more than politics and politl-
cans, an erroneous idea abroad
founded on the Preponderance of
Ohio men in the political life Of the
nation.
Nothing in the recent history of
New York gave such creditablo
prominence to the Empire state as
It's initiative in insurance probing
and the good results already OBJ
tanned and yet TO develop as a re-
suit of the Armstrong inyestiga-
ton.
Missouri is prominent as the
pioneer of anti-graft crusade. No
matter if the Missom'ian must be
shown, Missouri showed the way TO
deal with grafters.
Ohio'S proud boast today is that
it blazcd the way for a two-cent
fare on the railways. Years Of
agitation finally resulted in the
Ohio pioneer statute for two-cent
fare. In spite of the opposition to
lis enactment the statute went into
effect without contest in the
courts.
What is the resuIt7 For answer
we must ask the citizens of other
states. Since Ohio's two-cent fare
was put to the test of experience
other states that wanted it deter
mined to have it, until now two
cent fare is a reality or in process
of enactment in Arkansas. Indiana,
Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri

Missouri) Michigan, Nebraska. New
York, Pennsylvania and other
states.
This is only the beginning. See
ing the spread of this "Ohio idea ,
other states are going to follow the
lead until it will be possible to
travel froU" coast to coast and from
Canada TO Mexico and the gulf at
the uniform fare of two cents per
mile.
Ohio has opportunities to blaze
the way for other reforms of
equal value and Importance to the
people. The Ely bill, introduced
in the Ohio legislature in 1904 and
again in 1906, which is still pend
ing, may be properly called the
pioneer to the bill before the
Arkansas Legislature to compel the
interchange Of long-distance tele-
phone messages. That this matter
should be advocated in the plat
form of Texas Democrats shows
that the idea-it deserves TO be
called an Ohio idea is spreading.
What the state of Ohio should
do next in its pioneer work. is TO
put In the statutes an act TO reg
nlate telegraph and telephone rates
within the state and TO compel in
ierchange of long-distance mes
