Make the world a little better!
AS you journey day by day,
Share some blessing with another,
Lift the stone from out the way,
Speak a word Of consolation,
10 some mirthless misanthrope.
Heal some hurt or soothe some sorrow,
1t you hove no gold-give hope!
Make the world a little betterl
AS you mingle in the throng
Spare a tear for him that sorrows,
Cheer the weary with a song,
When you overtake a pilgrim
Painting on life's fertile slope
Wake his failing courage somehow,
If you have no gold-give hope.
Make the world a little better!
AS you briefly bide therein,
Break some captive's CALLING fetter,
Lift some sinking heart from sin;
All Of human resolution
Men require if they would cope
With life's grief and disillusion,
If you have no gold-give hope!

Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-10-30
fact remains they must be borne.

ldCI ISIHdllo ticy must NC uolAC'
Fulton County is not peculiar in her
situation. Every county so far re-
porting shows a similar situation.
Questions were sent each Auditor in
Ohio, through an important taxpay-
er in the County. 1t is significant
fact that democratic auditors seem to
be acting under instructions not to
answer these questions. Is it pos
sible that King James the First ar
rogates to himself the power to for
bid County Auditors disclosing the
exact situation to the taxpayers? Is
it possible that he looks on the State
levy and the general revenue fund as
his personal asset, forces the Warnes
tax officials to do his bidding, but al
so closes the door on public records
1t seems so.
To meet this situation and to aid
others in retiring to private life all
those who aided in enacting this OBJ
noxious Law, The OHIO LAND OWN
ERS LEAGUE was organized whose
motto is taking officials should be
selected by the taxpayers, not the
tax spenders."
Governor Cox compares the cost of
assessing property in 1910 with 1914.
Why not be fair? In 1910 both real
and personal property was assessed
In 1914 personal only was taken. In
1915 and thereafter, until the odious
Warnes Law is repealed, both real
and personal will be assessed.
MARY E. LEE,
Secretary Treasurer,
Ohio Land Owners League
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-10-30
OFFICE COMMON PLEAS JUDGE.

In the judgment of the writer, the
most important question the people
OF Fulton County have to pass upon
on November 3rd, is the question of
which one of the candidates shall pre-
side over the proceedings in our COM
mon pleas court in this county. No
person can know how soon he may be
dragged into litigation, no matter how
exemplary his conduct may be or how
careful he is in his business transac-
tions. Remember that the man YOU
elect will hold this position for SIX
YEARS. If you make a mistake,
that mistake cannot be righted for
SIX YEARS.
Nothing in this election can be so
important as to make the proper
selection for judge. You know, or
can know, the qualifications and repu-
tation, not only for ability but for
integrity and honesty of every one of
these candidates. Nothing urged in
this campaign by POLITICAL
FRIENDS should have weight as
against the things have mentioned.
You may at any time be forced into
litigation that may involve not only
your personal liberty, but your pro-
perty, the earnings of a lifetime. An
erroneous ruling, whether from ignor-
ance of the law or made by reason
Of prejudice, may give the opposite
party the right to carry the case to
a higher court and secure a reversal
against you and double the costs to
you, no difference how clearly you
are right.
Consider these questions well before
you cast your ballot for Judge. Then
vote for the man that your calm best
Judgment dictates, and the right man
will be elected to preside over our
courts for the next six years.
