politics to attempt it? If this
bill passes both houses the gov
ernor will surely veto it. He is
the son of a minister, and him
self a member of the Baptist
church. If Governor Harmon is
alive to his political aspirations
he will never allow the Demo
Gratis to modify the Ten Com
mandments. Bad politics? We
should say.
Why is the change desired?
Ostensibly, to legalize an inno-
cent recreation on Sunday, but
really to give a few professional
ball players a chance to make a
few dollars on Sunday after
Moons.
If the bill should pass very few
could play, and they not for ex-
ercise, but for mohey-the mon
ey paid by the crowd of idle
spectators.
We regret this effort to pollute
the sacred day. 1t is not friend
ly to morality or religion.
Washington, in his farewell
address, gives it as his Judgment
that morality and religion are alb
solutely necessary to the mainte-
nance of our democratic govern
ment. He had good reason for
so thinking. No political party
can succeed for a long time that
shows itself on the wrong side
of moral questions.

We heartily endorse what LEO"
said last week in regard to keep

that some of our people should
practice his teaching in order to
elevate the moral status of our
town and vicinity. 1t occurs to
us that it would be we'll for bus
mess houses to remain closed on
the Sabbath day, and that it does
not look just right to promote
play parties and such like on the
same evening that the church is
giving a social for the benefit of
the local church. Neither do we
think it right for Sunday school
teachers or Christians to take an
active part in such parties at
such times, or, in fact, at any
time. However, we may be a
little old-fashioned, therefore not
capable of passing judgment on
such matters. Yet, we want to
be found on the right side of ev.
cry question, and add our voice
and influence to every movement
for the moral uplifting of oul
community. Therefore, we would
like to see the Sabbath kept holy

It Is Bad Politics.
BY LEO.

LEO.
The administration in Ohio at
- the present time is Democratic.
y The governor, state officers and
both branches of the General AS
sembly are Democratic. There
fore, the Ohio Democracy must
be held responsible for all meas
ures passed in the General AS
sembly, whether approved by
the governor or not. The DEM
ocrats do not often have full
sway in the state. It is gener-
ally Republican. In view OF this
condition of things one would
naturally suppose that care would
be taken by the leaders of the
party to keep on the right side
of moral questions, for moral
questions in the long run are
\ sure to determine the fate OF
Il How is it in the General AS
= semBly? Well, Judge for your
self from the bills introduced
and passed. The Dean bill pass
ed triumphantly in the Senate,
but failed in the House by a few
votes. And what was the pur-
port of the bill? 1t was practic-
ally in favor of re-opening hum
dreds of liquor saloons in coun-
ties now legally dry. The pro-
saloon people had been in full
assurance that the Democrats in
the General Assembly would go
on record against the Rose coun-
II2sSy option law. The failure by a
few votes caused chagrin. And
it failed because the governor
has his ambition to reach the
White House in the near future
This alone defeated the Dean
bill.
Now, the Dean bill, though it
failed to pass, shows the trend
of things. It put the Democrat
ic party in Ohio in the attitude
of friendliness to the liquor in
terest. And this we regard as
bad politics, for thousands OF
Democrats in Ohio are hostile to
saloons they have their SYM
pathy with temperance.
To make matters worse, when
the Dean bill failed to pass, an
other bill was introduced to make
violations of the Rose law mat
| ters of jury trial. Obviously,
! an ironical bill. It seems to fav'
or temperance, but in reality,
measure to encourage illegal sell
ing of liquor by rendering the
punishment for it very uncer
tain. This, too, is bad politics.
The animus of Democracy il

in the House in favor of sport
