Ohio, with its scenic railway name, its
huge and happy population, and its Pc
cuUar genius for getting what II wants
politically. Is one of the most famous OF
the States. 1t Is a medium-sized Com
monwealth Of 4o.Ooo square miles, is about
100 years old, and contains $4,000 resi-
dent members. with nonresident or
alumni associations in every. State of the
Unicn and in the White House to boot
Ohio is eastern enough to be conserva-
tive and western enough TO be breezy. 1t
is the spot, in fact. On which the East
and the West shake hands. Most Ohio
families came from New York and New
England. while most Western families
lived IN Ohio at one time. Therefore.
when an Ohio man runs for national
office. it Is strictly a family affair
throughout the United States, and he Is
almost impossible to beat.
Ohio people cultivate the soil with great
energy, encouraging II to produce grain,
grapes, grindstones, pottery. and oil der
ricks in vast quantities. The iron ore
from Minnesota. and the coal from
Pennsylvania also collide In Ohio, pro-
ducing steel mills. which cover a quarter
section OF land apiece. and are making

A survey OF the activities OF the local
States, including chambers OF commerce,

interests OF their respective districts. has
been commenced by the Bureau OF Manu-

ing the usefulness OF these associations.
Few people realize how powerful these
commercial bodies have become In the
United States, and how vital a factor
they are in commercial and industrial
progress. They now number nearly SEQ,
with memberships ranging from a few
score each to large organizations like the
Boston Chamber OF Commerce, or the

tiles covering a wide range Of interests
The position of secretary of an active
commercial association Is now a very
responsible one. commanding high talent
for service, and the work Is really a new
profession, requiring careful training.
wide experience. and excellent Judgment.
There was a period not long ago when
cities was little more than a name
Little real or practical service was ac-
cOmplished. This state of affairs still
exists in some localities. but the active
commercial organization IN hundreds Of
cities are setting a splendid example of
efficient service The Bureau OF Manu-
factures feels that there is a very val
liable record to be made of this service
in its multifarious branches
There has been thus far comparatively
little relation or cooperation between
such organizations In different parts OF
the country. Much useful service Is be-
ing carried on in certain active associa-
tons. which should be established in
commercial bodies everywhere. to the
enormous advantage Of the whole coun-
try. not only commercially. but In such
fields as in the development of better

 Although Governor Harmon carried the state at the recent presidential preference primaries by nearly 11,0O0, nineteen district delegates pledged to Woodrow Wilson were chosen, and they object to being bound by the state convention with instructions to vote for Harmon at Baltimore
 They declare the Harmon plan vio- lates the state primary law and threat en to take the matter before the democratic national convention if nec- essary. On the other hand the Ha~- mon men declare the candidate was the choice of the democratic party of the state at the preferential primary and that Governor Harmon is entitled to the vote of the solid Ohio dele gation.
 In addition to electing six delegates at large to the national democratic convention at Baltimore, the conyen tion will nominate state ticket.
