Senator Dicks Position.

Senator Dick is not in favor of his nemi-
nation. Neither does he look with favor
upon the proposition to make Warren 6.
Harding of Marion the nominee, The
reason probably is that he does not want
to see the candidates for governor taken
from the northern part of the state. He
intends to be q candidate for reelection
to the Senate and he lives near the lake
shore. This has probably led the senator
to the support of Secretary of State
Carmi A. Thompson Of Ironton for the
nomination for governor.
Ex-Gov. Myron T.. Herrick will be a
candidate against Senator Dick for the
republican nomination for United States
senator. This nomination will be made
under the new primary election law. In
vi,w of this Ohio politics will likely be
concentrated for the next few months In

Gov. Harris Was Weak.

But the republicans do not admit that
Gov. Harmon won the governorship last
year on his own strength. but rather on
the weakness of his of,ponnet, Gen. A. l..
Harris, who, because of his radical adj
vocacy OF temperance legislation. had ar
rayed against himself not only the liquor
interests. but the liberal element of the
voters generally. With strong repub-
lican candidate, like Judge Tayler, they
believe 1t would be easy for the repub-
licas to win next year. even though Gov.
Harmon has gained strength since last
year.
1t Is evident that Judge Tayler would
prefer to remain in his present position
on the federal bench. He has said very
positively that he will not be candidate
for the nomination. That he will main
tain this position few doubt. That he
will stubbornly resist efforts to bring him
into the contest seems certain. but nomi-
mated by the state convention despite his
refusal to be a candidate, it Is certain
that he would not refuse to run, but
would accept as d part of his civic duty.
In no other way can Judge Tayler be
nominated

NO MONEY GETS
BY BEACH
Especial to The Press.)

OLYMPIA, Jan. 23.-Representa-
tive Beach of Mason county has
officially declared himself to be the
watchdog of the state treasury. Mr..
Beach's legitimate occupation, as
the Bertillion gentlemen would say,
is the care, cultivation, propagation
and dispensatio nof oysters, but
with due solemnity he has given 1t
out that while he is here in
Olympia he is to be the whole
canine thing in front of the treas
ury door. He will be the Old Faith
full par excellence, all the way from
the tiny black and tan to the lum-
bering st. Bernard, and while other
members of the house may yelp

state dollars is heard. it will re-
main for Mr. Beach to let forth the
honest bark that will warn against
any legislative extravaganza.

ton and during his previous official
visits to this city has observed with
regret the post-sessiOn recollection

ner and sums in which the money
of the constituents has been burned
up. Mr.. Beach admits that he likes
to spend money, and he would just
as soon spend the states money as
that of any other corporation, but
he deems 1t advisable to hearken to
the complaints of penurious con-
stituency and hence his role of the
cautious and ever guardful bow
WOW.
THE trouble with spending the
states money" says Mr.. Beach, sis
that it is all right only for those in
whose district the money is spent.
This expenditure to the people who
receive the benefit is one of neces-
sity, but to the others of the state
it is simple waste. A very selfish
and undemocratic attitude, no
doubt, but fact. The only safe
line of conduct TO ra legislator is
to be a consistent miser, and you
watch me henceforth every time
anybody wants to spend a dollar

Nevertheless, that he failed in the
