REPUBLICAN BOSSES

The inslncerity of the Republican
leaders IL Ohio on the reform of
abuses and the corrupt use of money
in elections is shown by the return
of the discredited Bos Cox, of Gin
cinnati to power. He now seems to
have complete control again of the
Republican machine in Hamilton
county, and according to a press dis
patch, has even gone so far as to
dictate the nomination of judges.
Judge Ferris, who now occupies the
Superior bench. states that he and
his colleague, Judge Hosea, have been
denied denominations because they
did not permit Boss Cox to dictate
the appointment Of a trustee OF the
Cincinnati Southern railroad.
Congressman Nicholas Longworth,
son-in-law OF President Roosevelt, is
evidently content TO be part of the
Cox machine, and while his strenuous
liather-in-law Is so much exercised
over the necessity of defeating Tom
Johnson for Mayor OF Cleveland. who
even his opponents agree is capable
and honest, the influence of the Ad-
ministration is being used by SON
in-law Longworth to bolster up the
corrupt Cincinnati machine controlled
by Boss Cox. How the Republican
voters OF Ohio can reconcile these
anomalies and vote to sustain such
evident Inconsistencies Is beyond be-
lief. There must be enough honest
Republicans in Cincinnati who will
vote with the Democrats TO again de-
pose the corrupt boss, II their par
tisanship does not get the better of
their duty TO their city and state,
and there certainly will be enough
Independent voters to reprove Presi-
dent Roosevelt for interfering in

Another point which cannot but APP
peal to every citizen is the great in
crease in revenue which has resulted
from the mayors policies. He has
turned over into the city treasurer
each month very handsome sum
from fines and licenses, sum vastly
in excess of his salary. This was n
very rare occurrence prior to Mayor
ScherG's time in office. The police
court has come to be a reality in
Marion. Instead of men being ar

only to repeat the offense, these men

/ was committed The city prison is
no longer a free lodging house for
Itramps and place where drunken
men may be taken to sober up. To
be locked up in Marion now means
something, thanks to the policy of
Mayor Scherff.
Not only has Mayor Scherff stood
for better city with better morals,
and respect for the executive and po-
lice departments of the city govern

has done much for Marion and her
citizens. The voters will have op-

express their approval of his efforts.
Will they allow petty jealousies to
blind them, and will they fail to APP
prove of the wirk of this official who
has given his best efforts for Marion
and Marion people?
