Ohio Whips Gang Rule

Ring rule did not fair so well
in Ohio.
TIL Akron gang was taken for
the worst ride in it's history.
Cleveland retained the city
manager plan in spite of the Davis
crowd; Toledo showed its indie
pendence of a group that has run
things too long by majority of
1000, and Cincinnati put its foot
down once more on efforts of the
old regime to come back.
Scripps Howard newspapers
worked the people for clean poll
tics in all four instances. They al
so fought to beat the infamous
Marshall bill, by which the Anti
Saloon League strove to increase
its hold on Ohio, with the result
that this organization went down
to a crushing defeat in its home
State.

Women Lax at Polls

New York women celebrated the
tenth anniversary of their enfran-
chisement on election night.
The next day was the ninth an
niversary of the birth of the Ger
man republic.
So far as the element of time
is concerned, American women
and the German people are about
on a parity in being granted the
ballot.
Considering all the TODD Amer
lean women made for this right
and the reluctance with which the
Germans accepted it, you would
expect the former to make a much
better showing than the latter at
the polls. But that is not the case.
Germans vote to the extent of
40 per cent and more of the total
population. American women do
not vote to anything like the same
extent,

Premium on MOdeSty

Concord, N H, takes a man
who campaigned hard for mayor
in preference to a young woman
who spent only SIS.
Detroit does the reverse. That
city likes the self effacing Lodge-
uncle of Charlie Lindbergh, better
that the Grating, bill-posting
Smith, even though the latter did
come out for a wide-open town.
Though Indianapolis held no
election, it. too, acquired a mayor
on Tuesday, and under circum-
stances which seem to pu. a
premium on modeSty.
L. Ert Slack, who was elected to
this Office by the city council on
the thirty-eighth ballot, took so
little interest in the matter that
he did not know his name was be-
ing considered, and knew so little
about the city hall that he had to
be directed to the council cham

TRACY
SAYS:
"The Most DiScowraging
Aspect of Our Elections
Is the Number of People
Who Fail to Vote"

Election results throw little
light on 1928, which is contrary to
what most of us hoped, but quite
in line with what should have
been expected.
The best one can say is that
nothing occurred to indicate a
sizeable shift of opinion as be-
tween the two major parties.
This probably would have been
the case even if such shift had
occurred, since the campaign was
confined to State and municipal
affairs.
Leaders did what they could,
of course, to line up the voters in
a partisan way, but local senti-
ment proved too much for them in
most instances.

F allure to Vote

The most discouraging aspect
of our elections is the number of
people who fail to vote.
What makes it even more dis
couraging, the condition appears
to grow worse instead of better,
especially in older communities.
The people of this country sell
dom vote in the proportion they
ought, or in the proportion that
people of other countries vote.
The English Guido us right along
when it comes to percentages. And
SO do the French, Germans. Ca
nadianS and Australians.

high, wide and fancy to meet all the calls on her
budget
BY this we do not mean to cast doubt on Ger
many's intentions Since the Dawes plan was put
into effect she has Loyalty fulfilled her responsibilities.
At the time Gilbert is hardly to be blamed for
calling the German governments attention to STU
alton which undoubtedly exists Say what one pleases
In fact, he was only doing plain duty.

Rebuke to Dry League

Ohio administers a terrific re-
buke to the Anti-Saloon League
and Detroit elects a dry mayor.
Kentucky prefers a Republican
Governor who believes in horse
racing to a Democrat who does
not.
If Tammany retains undisputed
control of New York, the Ware
machine retains equally undis-
puted control of Philadelphia, and
if the cry of fraud has gone up in
the latter city, it is beginning to be
heard in the former.

Another Al Victory

Nine constitutional amendments
were up for consideration in New
York. Governor Smith favored
eight and opposed one. The eight
he favored were adopted, while
the one he opposed was defeated.
This is enough to convince any
one that he remains leader not
only of the Democratic party, but
of the entire State.
At the same time, Republicans
increased their lead in the State
assembly by slight margin, and
there you are.

Tracks Are for Trains

Railroad tracks are for trains and highways are
for motorists Trains just little heavier and
ghter than automobiles which is to the point that
when train and automobile meet, the train comes
out best ninety-nine per cent of the time. Trains
hard to stop and automobiles easy, which
is to the point that when highways cross tracks,
automobiles should stop.
when man goes upon railroad track, he knows
he goes to place where he knows he will be killed
if train comes upon him before he is clear of the
track He knows he must stop for the train not the
train for him. In such circumstances, it seems to
us that if driver not be otherwise whether
a train is dangerously he must stop and get out
Of his vehicle although obviously he will not often
be required to do than stop and look. It seems
to that if he relies upon not hearing the train
or any signal and takes further precaution he
does at his own risk
Those the words of Justice Holmes of the
United States Supreme Court, applying to a mans
suit for redress because his automobile was demol
ished by a train.
There is no logic in rushing railroad track
There is no sense in not stopping and taking every
precaution to avoid being struck by train. There
is only world of azneSs-and criminal recklessness
A grade crossing is rendezvous with death. There
is always train coming.
