the story of THE NEW ORDER IN

Last week he visited nearly 40 diff

has closed he will have visited nearly
300 Ohio cities and towns since early
last summer when he really started
his campaign for reelection.
It's all done by auto and all the
plans are carefully arranged by the
local county committees.
How He's Getting On.
A few little stories will illustrate
how the governor is making out.
over at Delphos, Van Vert county,
about three months ago, the governor
was telling an audience Of farmers
that the new tax law would reduce
their taxes.
Governor, said an old farmer who
arose in the back of the house, we've
heard that story before. You've got
to show me-"
my friend" the governor rejoined,
"I'll bet you a s. hat to a red apple
that the new law reduces your taxes"
'I'll make it a barrel" the old fel-
low replied, while the crowd laughed.
The governor spoke at Lima last
week. AS he was eating his supper
at the hotel the colored head waiter
stepped up.

who wants to see you. He says he's

dozen or so musicians who comprise
the crack cornet band at the county
seat.
A representative of the Democratic
county chairman is with them.
"HItry up now, boys, and give US

are unlocking their instruments the
crowd gathers in close.
The band starts to play and at the
end of Is minutes every inhabitant Of
the town who is not bedridden is on
the scene.
More dust down the road.
"The speakers are coming" the
representative OF the county chair
man announces.

mission, and Howard Secrest, Demo

was full OF children Of all ages.

"show him In. I'm always ready to

he began, that I'm shipping that

row. The new law saved me just
$500, in spite of the fact that l
turned in $1,10O more Of personal

The man who introduced the gov
ernor at Columbus Grove was a little
fiustered by having such a signal
honor bestowed upon him, and he
partially forgot the governors name.

concluded, 'in introducing to you our

snapped an old fellow who evidently
wasn't a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat.
That gave the governor his text.
81 want you to know, my Repub-
lican friend" said the governor point
ing at his critic, that George B. Cox
of Cincinnati hasn't had anything to
do with the governors office since
the people of this state turned the
Republican party out of power. The
official records in the auditors office
show that George B. Cox used to
call the governors office as much
as four or five times a day, or your
Republican governors would call him
and get their orders; and the people
footed the telephone bills.

| wouldn't vote for you" said a Put
nam county farmer who stuck out his
hand to the governor. "The Repub-
licans have been cussing you so much
that wanted to see if you really had
horns as they said you had. But
that story about ketchin the old tax
dodgers converted me. You can count
on me, governor. And say, gov
ernor, I've got four SONS and two
sons-in-law, and reckon they'll vote
for you, too"
A high salaried official who had
heard the governor speak to several
western Ohio towns introduced him
self at the station in Lima.
Opposition Is Lying"
Governor, l see now that the op-
position has been doing a lot of lying
about you. / had told myself that you
were one of two things: Either the
greatest governor Ohio had ever had,
or else the greatest and slickest crook
that ever sat in the governors chair.
Your story of what has been accom-
plished for humanity and justice I'M
Ser your administration ought to con-
vince any fair-minded man that Ohio
has made wonderful advances during
the last two years"
A mill employe at Alliance pushed
himself through the crowd to the gov
ernor's auto, just as the governor was
about to start for Canton.

ribly mangled He stuck out his left

pensation act compulsory"
The governor arrived in little
Stark county town so covered with
dust as to be almost unrecognizable.
Everywhere he goes he wears
SLOUGH hat, and this time he had red
handkerchief around his neck.
When the auto stopped, the county
chairman beckoned one Of the politi-
cal leaders of the town over and said:

A remarkably commentary on

ment issued by the Studebaker cor
poration regarding the September
sales OF its automobiles which were
greater for last month than during
any other in the history of the orga-
niZation.
During September" Mr.. Benson
says, our sales of Studebaker -Four
and Six automobiles amounted toal-
most $5,O0O,000. All of these cars
are now in the hands of the buyers.
Had we been able to build 1000
more cars, we would still have found
an active demand for them.

THEIR OWN CRITICS.

I'm the latest issue Of the ST. Johns
Coleeian, under date of March "a, the
editor says the following:
Lately the order kept by the stu
dents IN chapel during the lectures has
been anything but the best. There
seems to be few men who either do
not. or cannot, appreciate a lecture
which will help them if it is listened
10. So. instead of keeping quiet and
letting other students listen, they talk
aud laugh and devise all kinds of
schemes to disturb everybody else.
That disturbance is bad enough, but
the effect on the speaker is worse.
You can imagine how a man feels who
Is trying TO lecture while his audience
is laughing, and taking no interest IN
what he says He at once considers
that his audience lacks one of the best
qualities of gentleman that of re-
specting another persons feelings
He leaves here with such al idea and
you may be sure he spreads. Thus the
reputation of the college as whole IS
hurt by the actions of four or FIVE men.
The lecture only lasts at the utmost
about one hour and a halt. and it should
be very easy to keep quiet that little
time. We are all proud Of the st,
Johns Spirit" What does the spirit
call for other than we should act as
gentlemen and do all we can to help
the honor of the college? Let us not
try TO take our honor away from US.
During the next lecture let us see how
good and quiet we can keep.

legian editorial on his straightforward

claring himself
