CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
Mortified News.

A'NiN''iNiu A'N"os
There is one society in this vicinity
which needs arousing to active life. We
refer to the Society for the Prevention
OF Cruelty to Animals. So far as the
editor of the News knows, there are no
really active members in town. There
are number of members but they are
either too busy or not enough interested
to look after some cases which should
be attended to. 1t is not compliment
to town, to putt as mildly as possible,
to see driven on its streets horses that
should long ago have been killed There
is scarcely day that horses are not
driven in from the country which are
poor or lame or crippled and should not
be allowed hitched to any vehicle, and
there appears to be no one to stop such
action. To be sure the Chief of Police
will hunt up and warn any who are guilty
of driving sick or named horses, if he
can learn of such cases, but he is busy
with other matters and it is not always
possible for him to keep an eye out for
those who are breaking the humane laws.
Why is there not an active society here
to look after these poor animals? The
probability is that the people who drive
poor, crippled horses are also unkind to
them. If there are officers in town where
are they, and will they not interest
themselves somewhat in the horses that
are being driven, when clearly they are
not able to draw vehicle.

industry and ability from the coal mines
to seat on the highest judicial tribunal
i'll the state.
He was born on a farm in the south
ern part OF Perry County, his father
having died two months before his sons
birth At an early age he was compelled
to labor for the support of himself and
his widowed mother-hrSt upon farm,
then in a stone quarry, then in the coal
mines. Later he taught school, and at
nineteen years of age was elected su-
perintendent of the public schools of
corning, Ohio.
As a child he attended the public
schools. When compelled TO work. he
studied at nights, and when he had fin
shed the high school course, took up the
higher branches under the instructions
of private tutors.
While he was still teaching school, he
took up the study of law, and at twenty
one years of age was admitted to prac-
tiCe. His course since that time has been
steadily onward and upward, until he is
now recognized as one of the ableSt
jurists of the state.
Yet, with all his success, he has never
I forgotten the hardship of his earlier
days. nor those who were his compan-
ions in toll He is still the same modest,
unassuming, intelligent gentleman, and
still has a warm spot in the hearts OF
those who knew him as a boy and young
man.
His career should be an inspiration to
the boys and young men of Ohio. He
deserves and should receive the support
not only of every working man who has
hopes and ambitions for his own sons,
but also of every voter in Ohio who be
leves in pluck and industry, and an able,
fair and impartial administration of jus
tice.
His name will appear on the separate,
non-partisan, judicial ballot. No voter
will be required to scratch his ticket to
vote for Judge Donahue for second
term

FOR FIRST TIME
Railroad BrOtherhoods Enter Poll
tics, Urging Wilson's Election.

New York, Oct 26-Chiefs of the
four railroad brotherhoods have sent a
PERSONAL appeal in the form of circular
letter to their members throughout the
country urging them to vote for the re-
election of President Wilson, it was an
nounced here tonight by G.. H. Sines,
vice-president OF the brotherhood OF
Railroad Trainmen The appeal, it was
said was based not only on the ground
that President Wilson had obtained legis-
lation favorable to labor generally, but
that he had been responsible also for
legislation beneficial to masses Of the
people. Mr.. Sines in making the an
nouncement, declared this was the first
time in the history Of the brotherhoods
that they had departed from their ira
ditional policy of keeping out Of poll
tics"

ORGANIZER OF STREET CAR
MEN COMING TO CONVICTION
Recon Orr Will Take Up Green Line
Dispute.

Recon Orr, national organizer of the

ed in Covington, KY, late Monday to
confer with officials of the Green Line"
Company with reference to securing the
reinstatement of six men who were dis
charged. Polk Laffoon, secretary of
the c., N. c. Company, has made formal
answer to the written communication of
the union. The union had asked that
the company accept as the third MEM
Der of the arbitration committee one
from a list of names which was sub
mitted. Laffoon did not state what an
swer the company made, but it is be-
lieved that, in view of the fact that he
sent request to the union headquarters
in Detroit asking for representative to
be sent to Covington, the company re-
fused to accept any of those suggested
by the Covington union. 1t is believed
that, after Organizer Orr arrives, ar
rangements will be made for an amicable
settlement.

Mr.. Sherman Applegate, Democratic
candidate for County Commissioner, is
union man of the old school, having
carried a card for the past twenty one
years. For two years he carried card
in Bricklayers' Local No. 2, in Coving-
ton, Kentucky, and for the balance Of
the time has carried card in Cincinnati
Local No. IS.
AT the time of the bricklayers strike,
Mr.. Applegate Immediately told all his
men to remain and that he would pay
them the additional wages regardless Of
the outcome of the strike
Union men will no doubt cast their
votes for the men that they consider
fair to them so it is unnecessary to say
that a man of Mr. Applegate's standing
should have the vote of every thinking
union man who has the interest of un-
ionism in his heart

KEEP JUDGES OUT OF POLITICS

A judge should be learned man. He
should be a wise man. But, above all, he
Should be a good man, human in his out
look on the world, with clear headed no
tions about justice and some understand
ing of mems impulses.
There is no way on earth to determine
whether this man or that has in him the
making Of good judge without trying
him out on the job as judge.
Because a man is a good lawyer it
does not follow that he will make a
good judge. And if man is a good
politician it may reasonably follow that
he will make bad Judge The people
of Ohio realized this when they took
the judiciary out of partisan politics.
Now, the way to make it easy for a
judge to stay out of politics is to let him
realize that if he does his job well and
honestly he won't need politics to help
him hold his job.
Two supreme court judges are to be
elected this fall Among the candidates
are two of the present judges. Both of
these men have done well. They have
shown an understanding Of progressive
ness and the superior value of man over
money They are the peoples judges
They have made good. They should be
reelected Tle;' names are.

order to force the issue the union met
and instructed its members to cease
work. In one days time the objection

Secretary of State Charles Q, Hildebrant has

two terms in Congress his record there met the

During his administration as Secretary of State
he has been not only fair, but representatives of
organized labor have always met with cordial
and sincere welcome whenever they appeared in
his department. Since his election in 1914
ganized labor leaders throughout the State have
realized for the first time that they have a friend
at the head Of the Department of State, who
is always on the job and ready to extend the right
hand of fellowship to labor upon any and all
occasions
He is a candidate on the Republican ticket for
