bers Of Organized Labor in Ohio
Submits Arguments Which Cannot
Be Refuted.
Cleveland, Organized labor
circles are becoming greatly interest
ed in Ohio's campaign for prohibition.
Following the action of the executive
committee Of the state federation OF
labor in declaring against the prohi-
bition amendment and in favor Of the
brewers proposal, which action is
freely criticized by many workers,
comes the publication of the Pasa-
dena california; board of labor, the
central labor body Of that city.
Pasadena is dry and campaign is
on in the state for statewide prohibi-
ton. In statement sent out by the
Pasadena board of labor it says the
working class of that city is eonsu.n-
ing negligible amount Of liquor, and
the money Of the wage earners is used
in the homes, on articles of necessity
for the family. The statement says
that Our wives and children are
better fed, clothed and educated aad
in all respects our men are better
sons, fathers, and citizens"
The statement goes on to say that
under prohibition the workmen now
engaged in making beer and whiskey
will be better employed in the manu-
facture Of the many household neces-
stiles and in the building of better
homes from which the wives and chill.
dren Of labor are now dependent and
to which they are entitled.
This labor party also asserts that
there is no other industry which re-
turns so little to labor as the liquor
industry. The profits are enormous
but the workers receive a very small
portion of the retail price. The inn
mense profits go to the owners of the
breweries and distilleries and the
saloonkeepers.
The statement concludes with the
assertion that the only ones benefited
by the liquor habit are the producers
and dealers and that under prohibi-
tion, that part of the wages Of the
working class formerly spent for
liquor will be spent for more food,
clothing, furniture, the manufacture
of which will give them more and
better Jobs.
The pronouncement OF this labor
party is generally commented on with
favor and the thinking working msn
declares its conclusions are sound ard
that its arguments cannot be refuted.

DEMOCRATS TO DRAFT
new REVENUE BILL
Caucus Rejects Freight Tax
Proposition.

Washington, Sept. 16.-By unani-
nous vote the Democrats Of the
house, in a party caucus, adopted a
resolution rejecting the proposed
freight tax that was embodied in an
emergency revenue bill adopted last
week with the approval of the presi-
dent by the majority members of the
committee on ways and means. The
caucus directed Chairman Underwood
and his associates on the ways and
means committee to write new rev.
enue bill. This bill is the third that
has been framed by the Democrats
since it was decided to raise addi-
tional revenues to make up the deficit
IN customs caused by the war.

At the general election in November
voters of Ohio will have to pass upon
four important questions, namely: Wheth-
er woman shall have the ballot; whether
the state shall have a minimum of a 10
mill tax rate with classification of prop
erty; whether the Rose county local OPP
tion law shall be repealed by a provision
in the organic law and the state shall at
that time affirmatively say that it does
not want prohibition, and finally, wheth-
er the state wishes to prohibit the sale
and manufacture for sale" of alcoholic
LIQUORS.

PRETTY GOOD SENSE.

OTTAWA County Republican,
Whatever else may be said of the
Cox administration, the fact remains
that it has wrought some startling
changes in the matter of tax collec-
tions in every section of the state
Millions upon millions of valuation
have been uncovered by the new or
der of things and made to pay its just
share of the burdens of maintaining
the institutions of the state. Here in
Ottawa county the assessors appoint
ed by the tax commission have uncov-
cred, brought to light and added t
the duplicate the enormous sum of
S2,133,2 ,295, while the tax commission.
er, Mr.. Mylander, has added S1,133,.
900. Under the old order of things
this immense sum would have escaped
paying taxes at all. Under the old or
der of things an assessor who even
attempted TO do his duty in an honest
and fearless manner was a marked
man. He never held Office again. The
rich tax dodgers saw to that
On general principles, we think the
Democrats ought to be kicked out of
Office as soon as possible and those
kept out; this is the result of our
wonderful political system. But when
the Republicans get back in power, If
they care to act the part of wisdom
they will be mighty slow to undo some
of the things the present administra-
tion has done. This sort of talk may
not be good Republicanism. but we
leaVa it to the average small taxpayer
of all parties if it isn't good sense.

No one has heard of dollar of inter

People are beginning to realize why
Dan R. Hanna and his papers are cuss-
ing the Warnes law and why Mr. Hanna
had the plank put in the Republican
platform that would restore the old days
Of ineficiency in taxation. In 1912 he
returned in Portage county only $22,-
400. In 1918 the elected assessor re-
turned $23 700. In 1914 Mr.. Hanna had
apparently grown poorer and returned
for taxation only S16,70S. But when the
Warnes law assessor got after him he
was glad to admit his mistake and re-
turn 81, 279, ,010 That's the colored
gentleman in the woodpile that's be-
hind the activity against the Warnes
law, which is increasing the taxes of the
dodger, and lowering the taxes of the
man who made an honest return.

the TT. Recovery Journal, candidate for
r Representative, and Calamity Jane Gil

and whine like stuck pigs1

A Trick For Bows.


Most boys like to do tricks of magic
and "sleight of hand" so here is
very simple trick that any one of you
can do after little practice. 1t is
called spinning the handkerchief"
OF course you wouldn't use your own
handkerchief. Ask some boy to lend
you his, and pretend to select one with
great care, saying, 1T is first of all
necessary to get the right kind of
handkerchief" After you have picked
out one throw it in the air. catch it on
the end Of stick that you are twirl-
Ing, and when the handkerchief
spreads out to its full size spin it
around rapidly.
The secret Of being able to do this
Is that there Is needle or pin in the
end of the stick, which catches the
handkerchief and prevents 1t from
falling off. The pin should be put in
SO that the sharp point extends out
about half inch.
The stick should have smooth sur
face, so that it will rotate easily in the
hand. If it is polished or vanished
SO much the better 1t will require
little practice before you are able to
catch the handkerchief in the middle
and with the pin going through one
thickness only. If it goes through two
or three thicknesses fold results and
your audience will notice the pin. You
need to do some practicing before at
tempting to do this trick in public.

TUSCULUM BEATS
LOCAL AGGREGATION

Tusculum college sprang a sur
prise on the Newport team last
Thursday night by defeating them
by a score of 43-17. The same
team had defeated the Newport
aggregation in Tusculum, but by
a smaller score and the overwhel-
ming defeat was a surprise. The
visiting lads, fresh from triumphs
in Asheville simply outclassed the
locals who do not consider it nee
essary to practise at all, and as a
result the old team work which
made the Newport teams feared
by all corners is sadly lacking and
the individual work shown does
not get results and does not en-
able them to cope with college
teams which practise every day
during the season.

"a girl in my class had geography
under her feet covered by her skirt in

any use for her after that.
"a good scout will never crib. A
good scout ought never to have any
use for boy or girl who does crib.
II don't mean that you should squeal
on cribber. There is a better way
than that.

of him, and just let him understand
that he is no better than any other
liar; that he has stolen, not money, but
good mark, which is just as bad

tuV ouo SCUGtos
A jolly game for children is called
"the bird sellers" Arrange the players
in a row, leaving two outside. These
two are to represent the bird buyers.
Give to each child the name of some
bird One will be a crow, one crane,
another canary, etc. One bird dealer
says to the other:
II wish to buy bird"
"What kindY inquiries the other.
"A bird that can fly swiftly" says
the first buyer.
every we'll, take what you wish"
"Then," says the first buyer, "I'll
take robin"
As soon as he says this the robin"
child must jump out Of the row and
run around, trying to escape. If the
dealer catches the bird the captured
one stays until the other "birds" have
been selected and caught.
