We have to record this week
the death of our loved neighbor

LARGEST DRY CITY
MAKES GOOD RECORD
Statement From Chief Of Police
Of Ontario

Toronto, Canada.-This city with
its more than 100000 people is now
the largest dry city in America, Ac-
cording to Chief of Police Grassett, in
an interview in the Toronto Globe, tia
passing of the saloon has made a
wonderful change in the city. The
chief says:
Since Prohibition has been in
force Toronto has become a different
place from the point of view Of
the police. The stations are almost
empty. The streets are quiet and po
lioemen are free now to attend to
other duties which before, to a Ger
tain extent, were neglected. From
Sept. 10 to Oct. Is. last year. there
were 1,059 arrests for disorderly con.
duct resulting from drunkenness,
while IN the same months this year
that number had decreased to PA.
Evidence OF satisfaction with this era
of Prohibition is being given cor
stantly by men who were never
Iaown to be Temperance advocates"

Road Repair w Work is Not
Emergency.

Ordinary road repair work does
not constitute such an emergency
for which a tax may be levied in
excess of the Smith law l per
cent limitation, so the Supreme
court holds in a decision uphold
ing the centeEtion of Attorney
General Turner.
In June the Cuyahoga county
commissioners adopted a resolu-
tion levying tax to repair, re-
construct and maintain certain
roads, under the emergency pro-
vision of the Smith act, the pro-
posed levy amounting to $500, 900.
The county auditor refused to
place the levy on the duplicate
unless ordered to do so by the
court. Attorney General Turner
argued that if repairing could be
considered an emergency, thro'
neglect of roads, emergencies
could be created for which the
tax limit could be evaded in eve
ry county.
The ruling of the court is of
considerable Importance, as some
thing like 20 counties, following
a Miami county court decision,
which is upset by the high courts
ruling. proceeded to make levies
outside the Smith law for roac
repair. = Ohio Journal of Com,

Political Gossip from
Washington.


factory outcome Of the recent
campaign from a Republican
standpoint and the very general
disposition to criticise the man
agement has started considerable
discussion in favor of a change
in the method of selecting the
national campaign manager. 1t
has been the practice for a great
many years for the nominee to
select the chairman Of the Ma
tional committee, who is also
campaign manager. This has
been done upon the theory that
the nominee himself has the most
at stake in the campaign, and,
therefore, should have absolute
control.
But on several occasions there
has been a feeling that this meth
cd of selecting a chairman has
not been satisfactory. Although
a man may be a good judge of
nolitics under ordinary 'circum-
stances, yet few men are good
judges of their own political cam
paigns. The candidate, there
fore, may make poor selection
for a campaign manager and give
unwise instructions as to the
management. From the stand
point of efficiency, therefore,
there is serious question whether
best results are likely to be Sc
cured by turning the campaign
management over entirely to the
candidate and his appointee.
At any rate, as a result of the
recent contest, there is very gen
eral inclination to dispute the
proposition that the candidate
had the chief interest in the out
come of the political contest. Ev-
ery member of the Republican
party had a deep interest IN the
overthrow of an administration
that had proven itself to be gov
erned by unwise economic prin-
ciples and entirely lacking many
definite and fixed policies with
regard to our relations with for
eign countries. Yet the duly e.
lected representatives Of the par
tv had a minor part in the cam
paign management.
It is safe to say that if the COM
mittee had exercised its func-
tions, Mr.. Wilcox would not have
been chosen as chairman of the
committee, and Mr.. Hitchcock
would not have been his chief ad-
visor. While it is recognized
that Mr.. Wilcox is man of un-
questionable integrity and good
intentions, he was entirely lack
ing in political experience.
Republicans regret to make
this criticism at this time, but
feel it necessary in order that
similar mistakes may be avoided
in the future. It is contended
that if the members of the Re-
publican party are to be called up
on to work in the campaign and
to make contribution to the cam
paign funds, their representa-
tives, the members of the Ma
tional committee, should have an
effectivetvoice in the selection of
the men who shall manage the
campaign.
While it is not likely that the

less job together, ana now every post
Office is an agency Of the United STATES
employment service. The postmaster
is equipped with blanks for listing ap-
phcations for labor or for employment
and is instructed to help get the worker
and the job in contact.
While this may appear to be pTinci-
pally in the Interest of the worker, it
is really one of the numerous far
reaching things started for the benefit
of the farmer by the administration
of President Wilson. The increasing
scarcity of farm labor has become a
problem to the farmer, especially in
the wheat growing and fruit growing
sections. This labor, which is of
seasonal character, necessarily must
be performed largely BY itinerant
workers. Some agency which VIII meet
