NOT AN OFF YEAR.

In Marion county, more particu-
llarly in the rural districts, there Is
an inclination to consider this an of
year in politics. In the city and
Villages. there Is full municipal
ticket 10 be elected, and in the town
ships, full township tickets, while the
voters OF the entire county are to
select a state legislator. The talk of
an off year arises from the fact that
no state or federal offices are to
ibe filled.
This is indeed mistaken idea. .
There should De and are no off years
in politics with loyal citizens. No
man has the right to stay away from
the polls nelection day. He should
certainly be willing to devote an
hour or two out of the year to doing
his share in selecting those who
shall have charge of the peoples bust
ness.
In reality, the officers to be chosen
this fall are the ones who come near
est to the people themselves and
have more to do with the things
which come closest home to the vot-
Iers. The fact that a representative Is
to be elected has served to, in a
measure dispel this of year feeling,
but it should entirely eradicate it.
What officer can be of more import
ance than he who takes hand in
enacting the laws of the state. The
road laws, the school laws, the ditch
laws, the tax laws, the laws which
have direct bearing upon the farm
er, and the laws which govern the
railroads and corporations, what little
mite OF regulation that is left to the
state. Then, too, in addition to all
of this legislation, this years cleo
ton will practically determine what
part Marion county voters are going
10 take in the election of the next
United States senator from Ohio.
In the city and villages where
municipal officers are to be selected,
there can be no question OF the Wit
al importance of getting to the polls.
II a mayor. justice Of the peace,
members of council. members of the
Board of Public Service and members
of the Board OF Education are not OF
sufficient Importance to warrant a
man taking the time to go and vote,
then, indeed is interest dead. 1t Is
the duty of every man to go TO the
polls on election day and express his
preferences. This Is the first duty Of
every loyal American.
There should be no off years in pol
itics.

FORTUNE And
A HUSBAND
Won by a Young Lady of
Pittsburg at Almcst the
Same Time.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct. 16. With
n fortune of 100000 Miss Edna
Loxterman has become the wife Of
MILFORD C.. Mayo, a bookkeeper,
formerly of Pittsburg, but now OF
Canton, o., where the couple will
make their home. 'H
Miss Loxterman, upon reaching
her twenty-first birthday a year ago
inherited 100000 from her father
John F.. Loxterman, formerly a
wealthy contractor Of this city,
but who died fourteen years ago
in New Jersey. Miss LOXterman
was a stencgraphcr for-the Union
Switch e. Signal Co., hut did not
cease work when she became a veal
thy woman. Mayo, who is twenty
six, secured better position in
Canton and persuaded her TO share
his lat.
While both have relatives and no
to the wedding was ex-
pccted they decided TO take no
one into their confidence. Saturday
Miss Loxterlnan and Mayo met Mt
Youngstown and were married.
Then they went TO their home in
Canton. From there Mrs. Mayo
notified her brothers and sisters
in this city. Each OF the Iloxter-
man ohilden receives 100000 upon
reaching his or her majority.

GIVE OFFICIALS A
GOOD LEGAL ADVISER

The democratic city ticket this fall
presents an exceptionally strong can
didate for City Solicitor, in the person
OF William p. Moloney. The voters
should consider themselves very for
tunate in having such thoroughly
informed counsellor. capable attorney
and eminent gentleman upon the
ticket.
The office of city solicitor is one
Of the most important in any munic-
ipality. 1t is the solicitor who must
guide council In all of its legisla-
ton; he it is who must draft all doc
uments for the city, all ordinances,
resolutions and deeds, pass upon
franchises and direct the city council
in the expenditure of moneys. In ad-
dition, he is the counselor for the
Mayor and all other city officials and
the city's defender in actions brought
against 1t in any and all forms. Thus
1t will be seen that the position is
one which should be held by man
who Is thoroughly versed in the law
and who is thoroughly capable of
looking after the interests of the city
IN a capable manner.
Mr.. Moloney, the democratic nom-
tnee. h universally recognized as one
OF the bright lights in the legal pro-
session In Marion. He is not
The Marion daily mirror. (Marion, Ohio) 1892-1912, 1907-10-16

only capable of holding his own
against the younger attorneys at the
bar, hut he does not take q back seat
to even the older heads. While yet
in college, he demonstrated that he
had not missed his calling. He grad
uated at the head of large class in
law college and won the highest prize
for a theses upon municipal law.
In his examination for admission to
the bar, he ranked first and since
his entrance into the practice he has
held q foremost position.
A good criterian and really the only
true guide In selecting city solicitor
is a personal application by every
voter. With whom would you trust
your case II you were beginning some
action in court or to whom would
you go IL you were seeking legal ad-
vice in some business transaction?
The citizens, as a whole, should exer-
else the same care that they would as
individuals.
The private life Of Mr.. Moloney is
without shadow of suspicion. He is
q clean young man, who by his own
efforts has fitted himself for his
chosen profession. That he is thor
Dughly qualified is questioned by no
one. What more could the people
ask Of n candidate?
