Political Observersin Co
lumbus Say Admins
tration is Vindicated.

~
tration is Vindicated.
from the Ohio Republican EDITORIAL
Association.
Columbus, o., May THE ob-
position to Governor Frank B. |
Willis has proved complete f.
asco. The primary proves his
great strength with the people of |
Ohio.
The above is the verdict OF The
skilled observers of political af-
fairs in the capital city. While
the Governor ran a close second
to Senator Harding, these same
observers say that his position on
the ballot lost him 10000 votes
last Tuesday.
The primary vote was one Of
confidence in the high integrity
of Ohio's chief executive and one
of approval for the program of
economy and efficiency being
worked out under every depart
ment of the state government.
In short, it vindicated the admin
istration of every hostile charge.
Governor Willis was intended
to be the victim of one of the
most far. wrought plans in the re-
cent political history of Ohio.
Three candidates were entered
to make a fight against him, in
order that, from different angles
and factions, as much of his vote |
as possible might be taken from
him, All kinds of publicity was |
given this opposition by the Cox !
press, which carefully concealed |
the fact of the disgrIEtled pat
ronage proposition which really |
caused the three to enter.
But in spite Of this fact, tie
Governor ran second and hia vote |
was only slightly behind that Of |
Senator Harding, for whose cat
didacy even the alleged oppOsi
ton worked In numerous coun- !
ties the Governor ran ahead Of
the Senator. In view of the fact |
that the vote was light in the |
country districts, where the Gov
ernor is normally strong. and
heavier in the cities, where the |
opposition to him has been most |
manifest, the showing is regarded |
as a splendid indication of the |
of the state, by the
Willis leaders.
On the Democratic side, it is
pointed out that in most of the
normally Democratic counties, |
which III 1914 went against Cox, |
the Ex-Governor runs behind a.
bout the same percentage as vot- |
ed against him in 1914, compared |
with the vote for Ex-Governor

From the Ohio Republican Editorial
Association.
Yes, it looks as if Governor
Willis would be able to get into
the convention hall to make that
nominating speech.
The State Journal can now take
that menagerie back into the sta,
bles. They need not hee-haw any
more in the fear that some one
else will be nominated for COVER
nor. 1t will be Willis, and he
will be elected.
There is one consolation of hav-
ing a newspaper of your own
you can run your own pictures
in it, boom yourself for anything
you like, but the trouble is to get
the people to support you.
When it comes to voting, most
of the people are not so easily
duped as good many folks think
they are.
Matt GIaser can console him
self at least in the fact that he
didn't run so awful far behind
Tyler, even il he was at the tail
end of the procession.

preparedness for defense makes

At last we have the real
dope" about Charlie Chaplin. The
Moving Picture World, recogniz-
ed as the authentic trade paper
of the movies, comes out in Its
last issue with an article telling
about the famous comedians lat
est deal. Chaplin signed an
agreement with the Mutual COM
pany Feb. % to work one year at
$4,000 a week. In addition he
receives a bonus of $3.50, 1000 for
signing the contract, making his
years salary $4,000 plus $780,
600, or $4,000.
Sid Chaplin, brother of
Charlie, handled the business end
of the deal. Chaplin will have
his own company of players and
will direct his own productions.
He guarantees a release every
two weeks. President John r.
Freuler of Mutual says that he
intends to put out Chaplin come
dies at even a lower price than
formerly, SO that all theaters
will be able to handle the films.
Chaplin predicts that 1916 will
be his greatest year. The IA
nous comedian is only 81 years
of age.
