The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1916-09-29


States Senator from Ohio, and Demo-
cratic nominee for reelection will be
in the county on Friday, Oct 13, and
in all probability will speak either at
Ft. Recovery ,Coldwater or st. Hen
ry. Definite announcement will also
be made of this next week.
Congressman John Hefel, OF GeoT-
gia, one of the most noted humorists
in Congress will address the voters of
Minister and vicinity on Monday even
ing, October 5. Quite a number Of
Democrats from Marion township will
likely attend the meeting.
State Auditor Vic Donahey, Demo-
cratic nominee for reelection will be
in the county the week of October 16
and will probably speak in this city
and Coldwater. Several other prom
inent speakers are promised for
meetings at Rockford, Mendon and
Neptune, while couple of good Ger
man speakers will tour the south end
Of the county the week of October %.
While the laboring people and en-
ployers of the State are alive to the
imminent danger to their laws they
must give thought to the judicial
branch of State government. In Ohio,
Judges James G. Johnson and M. H.
Donahue, who are now rounding out
their first terms in the Supreme
Court, are candidates for reelection
on separate non-partisan judicial tic
kets. They represent the forward
looking kind of Judges and during
their term of office Ohio has been CIV
en- a Supreme Court that is recogniZ-
ed as impartial, fair and honest.
They are opposed for reelection In
one instance by man who was turn
ed out of the Supreme Court six years
ago because of his reactionary record,
and who since has been engaged in
propaganda against laws passed for
the benefit of the common people.
The other opponent is a man who
ranks low as lawyer and who has
not single personal attribute to
make him worthy of the place he
seeks. Those who want justice in
Ohio and an efficient administration
of the Courts must reelect James G.
Johnson and M. H. Donahue. To Sc
cure their reelection it is necessary
to have these names fixed firmly In
mind so that the x mark can be
placed in front of them on the ballot
in which the order of names is chang
ed on each succeeding ballot.

A communication published editor
tally in the Cincinnati Post takes this
view of the Maine election: The
Democratic vote this year was an in
crease of Is, ,434 over the Democratic
vote four years ago for President
Wilson The Republican vote in
Maine this year was only 1919 more
than that for Taft and Roosevelt four
years ago.
In a canned editorial for Myron T.
Herrick this Introductory sentence
was used. "Myron .Herrick's splen-
did records as Governor of Ohio" Let
us see. Two years of that splendid
record caused Warren G.. Harding,
now Senator to refuse to run on the
same ticket with Mr.. Herrick, and
turned favorable Republican major
ity of 1882 into an adverse major
ity of 42,647. Perhaps it would be
well il the Herrick supporters did not
spend too much time talking about
his splendid gubernator1al record.
His wobbling, carrying-water on both
shoulders attitude then gained him
the name of "The great what is 1T.
He is no different today but he has
more money to spend to get an office
