- ONGRESSMAN BURTON is one of the
- ablest members of the lower house Of Con-
gress, but he appears to have sacrificed himself
in the attempt to defeat Mayor Johnson for re-
election in Cleveland, Ohio The Ohio city is
normally Republican by good majority. Re-
publcans reelected Johnson and rejected good
man simply because he stood on the wrong side
OF the issue Burton allied himself with the fran
chised corporations that have done so much to
corrupt politics in Il e cities of the country. And
the moment that even so good man as Burton
espoused the cause OF corporations against the
people that instant his political fate decided
Burton himself by his record shows that he
opposed the aggressions of corporations in poll
tics by his valiant fight against the Foraker ring
that dominated Ohio in the interest OF private in
divduals lie. therefore, faced about when he
entered the Cleveland mayoralty contest
Whenever the issue of corporation control is
put up TO the people in the average community
the people are bound to win. The vote on the
referendum proposals at our own city election
showed how little real strength the public service
corporations had among the people. Here in
Delaware lesson can be drawn from Cleveland
ln the campaign of next year a oorporation-made
ticket would have every prospect Of defeat.
