In his sleep "Dutch" finally got up

CHARLIE NOT FORGOTTEN

Commenting on the Gazette's recent
whole-hearted endorsement of Charlie
Dicks nomination by the Republicans
for Congress, the Rittman Press has
the following to say:
w. B. Baldwin, editor of the Medina
Gazette, who had the congressional
bee in his bonnet for awhile last sum-
mer, thinks it will be ian eminently
wise and sane" thing on the part of
the voters of the 14th district to elect
Charlie Dick to congress this fall. This
endorsement does credit to Baldwin
as partisan, but not as a citizen.
The people of Ohio buried Dick and
the machine politicians with whom he
trained long time ago. They branded
him then as eminently unwise and un-
satisfactory. 1t will be hard to con-
vince these voters that the leopard has
changed his spots. There are few
that believe Dick is now anything but
the willy politician that he was then
The Mark Hama gang of politicians
lost favor among Ohio voters years
ago. They were driven in route to re-
tirement, They were mistrusted and
condemned. We can not believe that,
when full and fair vote of the 14th
district is taken, Dick will be proved
"eminently sane and satisfactory"

j. TO VISIT Medina

During the week before the next
Liberty Loan drive and dur
ing at least the first two
weeks of the drive proper two
trainloads of war exhibits will be on
tour in the Fourth district making
their stops at Medina and many other

train with tank, field guns, tor
pedoes, aerial bombs and depth bombs

being shipped by General Pershing and
officials of the allied governments
Some have already been landed at At
lantic coast ports and are being tag
ged and sent forth to the districts.
Three of the federal reserve districts
Dallas, Atlanta and st. Louis had
similar trains in the third campaign
and they were great help in reaching
the bond buyers in the rural sections
The Treasury department has just
been able to get the sanction of the
railroad administration to put two
trains in each one of the twelve dis.
tricts.
Efforts are being made to have the
speakers aboard the trains recruited
from actual fighters who have beer
over there and know first-hand what
war is and means.
