Columbus, o.-(Special)-Just what

Warren G. Harding doing at Washing-

etituents? What steps are being
taken toward the 1916 campaign?
These questions are ever before the

can committeeman, and the Republi-
can citizen. They want the truth
about the state and national govern
nlent, and not distorted stories, col
ored to suit the whims and fancies of
an editor who has an ax to grind.
The answers are to be found in the
Columbus Saturday Monitor, the only
Republican newspaper published at
the seat OF the state government. It
Is a high-class, newsy, edu catIonal Re-
publican newspaper, with statewide
circulation. 1t deals with local, state
and national politics from a Repubi-

bring about the very best things in
the form of an enlightened and for

The home of the good Republican
citizen can not, for a dollar a year,
afford to be without the Columbus
Saturday Monitor. 1t is Indispensable

The goal of the Columbus Saturday
Monitor-EVERY Republican home in
the state-is being approached
through an endless chain soliciting
campaign in which true Republicans
are forging the links. Realizing that
the greater its subscription the
greater its power will be in the ap-
preaching campaign, Republicans
Lave jumped into the work with zest
and vim.
Ten receipt books are being sent to
Republican county and state commit
teemen, with the request that one be
handed to each Of ten good, loyal Re-
lublicans or ubcommitteemen, each
of whom is to tear out one recent

pass the book on to another true Re-
publican. When the book is void o.
receipts, each Republican has done
nis part in passing it on to another,
and no one has been damaged fnan-
cially to any great extent, although
they have helped the party and helped
themselves.
The Columbus Saturday Monitor is
a conspicuous example of clean Jour-
ralism and will stand for clean citi-
szenship. Therefore, tne best news is
the news that has its foundation in
truth. The Columbus Saturday Mon
itor insists upon truth.
The respect and esteem in which
the Monitor Is held by Senator Hard
ing Is reflected in his newspaper, the
Marion Star, In the following edi-
torial:
"The Columbus Saturday Monitor
has just published one of the finest
concentrations of the Willis admin
istration which has appeared in print,
and 1t is to be regretted that the same
eorceful presentation can not be re.
produced in every Republican paper
in Ohio. Many voters will recall The
Little Red Book Of the 1914 CAM
paign. It was the publication which
portrayed the many Columbus build
ings In which the great Cox machine
was housed. The Saturday Monitor
portrays the buildings from which
state officials have been withdrawn,
at saving to the taxpayers of S1350O
q year This is not tremendous sum
when compared to the annual state
budget, which mounts into millions,
but 1t Is the saving OF a gratifying
sum, and distinctly move in the
right direction. In these days of
mounting cost. in these days when so
many, even in party power, are pro-
testing reduced salaries and the re-
duction of official forces, Governor
Willis has achieved the thing which
the taxpayers will note with satisfac.
tion, and will leave an impression on
thoughtful sentiment when the failure
Of the McDermott license plan at the
polls is long forgotten. The growing
cost OF government and the excess of
government combine to make one of
the big issues Of the times, and the
willis administration Is meeting a
great popular wish which Is of seri-
Gus import to the people OF Ohio.
