THEY ARE ALL GOOD MEN

Recently one of the good domi-
nies of the town was giving the
members of his congregation ad-
vice, or instructions, as to whom to
support in the coming primary Tor
governor. However he sort OF for
got himself, or for some other cause
failed to let it be known that there
were any candidates in the field on
the Democratic ticket. When ques-
toned as to why he instructed only
the members of his flock, of Repub-
Ecan affiliations. he excused himself
by saying that the Democrats need
ed no instructions-that they were
all good men. We are ready to ac-
cept his explanation at 100 percent
value. They are all three good and
capable men. If one be weaker than
the other, he is stronger than the
strongest of the Republicans. Judge
James G.. Johnson has served al
most II years in the state supreme
court. and is one of the ableSt, and
best of jurists. Not only has he
legal training, but business training
as we'll. T. ]. Duffey has served for
a number of years on the industrial
commission, and has occupied other
places of trust and responsibility,
and has been big enough to handle
any job he tackles. No man in the
state has worked harder for the
workmen's compensation laws than
Duffey. The other candidate is Vic
Donahey. He needs no introduc-
tion His eight years matchless
record as state auditor and watch
dog of the treasury" is known to all.
AS to which one of these three will
be nominated, we would not ven-
ture even a guess, but no matter
which one is nominated, no mistake
will be made, and the nominee is go
ing to be the next governor of Ohio.
Again in the words of the preach
er, they are all good men,"

There should be as big turnout
at the polls as there was for the
presidential election. Too many
men and women consider that vot-
ing is merely a privilege; but it is
more, it is duty, and one of the
very greatest that devolves upon the
citizen. Not only do men and women
owe it to themselves to vote, but to
the community also
The right of suffrage is trust,
involving the safeguarding in gem
eral of all the people, through
the selection of honest and capable
public officials. This trust can be
betrayed by a failure to participate
in the selection of these officials, as
we'll as by voting for candidates that
are unworthy or inefficient.
Every qualified voter should cast
a ballot at the primary next Tues
day. There never has been time
when it was more vital for all men
and all women to be true to the
trust devolving upon them as voters,
than it will be on Aug. 8.
How many are going to be true to
that trust? How many are going to
betray it?
