To The Tired Republican Ed.
itOrS OF State
Why Doesn't willis Hire An
Office And Pay Expense?


more economy at the capitol The tele-
graph and press room set aside by the
general assembly for a specific pur-
pose, now houses the publicity depart
ment of the Willis machine. 1t is in
charge of former Editor Sherman A.
Cuneo, who is on the state pay roll as
assistant secretary of the defunct Ohio
commission to the Panama-Pacific ex-
position. His business is to write
puffs of the Governor on state paper
and mail them to machine editors.
Money is saved, but it is not to the
taxpayers. Why doesn't the governor
hire an office and settle the expense?
An indignant editor has risen in his
wrath to call Governor Frank B. Willis
"copperhead" because of his failure
to stand by the government at Wash
ington in these perilous times. This is
going too far along the road of COM
pliment. Ohio's governor, to speak
plainly, has not the qualifications to be-
come "copperhead" He just does not
know how real men should act in time
of stress. The other night he deliver
ed an address to the youths of the
Canal Winchester high school. 1t was
on the same day that the authorized
statement had been made on the floor
of congress that President Wilson in
dignantly repelled the groundless
charge that he favored war. To the
boys and girls before him the Gov
ernor, after some vapid talk about the
blessings Of peace, said that "all the
bellicose talk was at Washington" and
his alert press bureau, helping along
the malicious inuendo, made it read
"the White House" Because of this
disloyal action he cannot escape the
charge that he deliberately endeavored
to make the high school pupils believe
that the president of the United States
was a liar. The editor above referred
to, angered by this performance, uses
the copperhead epithet. He should
calm himself and ponder the mental
equipment of public official, also des-
cribed as an educator, who would en-
deavor to poison the minds of trustful
scholars of tender years. A few min
ute's reflection will convince the editor
that an apology is due the snake.

Charles Dick of Akron, wants to be

Randolph Walton, former clerk to
Governor Myron 4. Herrick, has

own note book that that candidate for

1912, claimed the sole credit for Sc

Chautauqua Exceeds
Expectations Of Many

The 1916 Chautauqua session is I'm
der way. And it is surely going to be
some session. You don't even have to
60 out to the grounds to catch the
feel Of big things. But when you do
get out there you get a view OF tho
possibilities that almost takes your
breath away. '.s5
Everybody who has anything to d.
with the enterprise in an official way
and every citizen of the county who il
interested in the advancement Of the
county is nightly pleased with the
way things have started off. There's 4
vim that betokens long, careful prep
aration. There's an air of expectar
ton about the crowds that indicates
increasing interest. There's that indie
Unable air about the grounds that
shows intelligent supervision of the
labor expended on the place. The
committee on sanitation made a tour
of inspection Friday, and they are
pleased to inform the public that they
find everything in an ideal condition.
The underbrush and weeds have been
cut, the low places and pools have
been filed and the grounds are wen
drained in spite OF the frequent raina
The park seems to be free from flies,
worms and other pests. BY the use or
oil the breeding places of the mosquito
have been destroyed. The water
from the wells has been sent to the
university laboratory for a sanitary
test and nothing has been left undone
to make the park and buildings in a
clean and sanitary condition.
Much credit is due to J. j. Enger
and Lawrence Bonhoff in their efforts
to put the grounds in the present con-
dition.
The committee and the management
hope to have the hearty support Of tho
patrons of the association and every
body in an earnest endeavor to rnain-
tain the high order Of sanitation dur
ing the entire period. This can only
be accomplished by combined eff.
fort of each and every one.
Sanitary drinking cups may be or
tanned free at the secretary's tent and
receptacles for garbage and waste
may be found at convenient places on
the grounds. All cases of illness SHOULD
be reported promptly to the commit
tee, that possible epidemic may be
prevented.
