LEADERS HAVE THEIR EARS TO
THE GROUND.

c. -. L. leaders still have their
ears to the ground to detect the now
and then false note in the universal
cry of harmony.
or Is it universal cry for Har-
mon?
Or the grumble and growl of a
people open-eyed to the presumption
seeming endless chain of Republi-
can administrations has not always
been governed wisely, honestly and
economically?
Have Investigations and discoveries
of graft brought about an unexpected
Climax climax that has not been
lacking in thrills and radical changes
of sentiment that are not to be turned
back into old channels merely because
of individual interest in favorite sons,
or TO add another stratum to party
patriotism which for some time past
has been in cold storage and awaiting
a better than the present market?
Is it from this condition that rises
the now and then false note which,
as the investigator prods deeper un-
der the surface of things, grows in
frequency and volume?
Indeed. the soft snap has dropped
out of Ohio futures-in a political
sense-and none know this so well as
Republican leaders who now have
their ears to the ground, listening
and with a weather eye glued to the
handwriting on the wall that spells
Harmon to the Democracy, and any
thing but harmony to the G. o. P
Columbus News.

WORTHLESS CANALS OR GOOD
ROADS?

Representative Smiths bill to dis
pose of the canals and turn the
money derived from their sale into
the state good roads fun embodies
proposition that surpasses all for
bluntnes and directness. 1t raises the
question of questions, Are the can
ais or good roads to be preferred?"
The canals originally cost the state.
according to Representative Smiths
figures, $2O,00O,000 and in later
years the appropriations in their sup
port have run from 100000 to $780,
900 annually. And what Is the re-
turn to the people II today for this
large investment and this annual out
lay? He does not overstate the case
when he says that there has been
mo appreciable benefit even to the
people living along the route of the
canal" Some persons have had sal
aries, with little or nothing to do to
earn them and others have had
dredging and other contracts. But
the great mass of the people have
got no return, and even now there are
pending In the legislature bills to
make payment to canal-boat owners
to cover damages 70 their boats due
to the lack of water in the canal. IL
is grave problem OF expense with
no adequate return IN service to the
state, for even the most usable
stretches of the canal are unused. Mo-
body now wants to travel or ship
goods by canal.
on the other hand, there is great
and growing demand for good roads.
| These would serve not one section OF
the state, but all sections. not a few
of the people, but all of them, for the
good roads would ultimately reach eY-
cry nook and corner of the state AND
would be of like benefit to all. R&k<
resentative Smiths bill suggests an
| idea, which on the face of things
must commend itself-the trading OF
something which is of little or no use
