that Frost might have piloted his

exhausted. This theory was strength

The Real Significance

The true significance of Tuesdays election in Ohio
lies in the breaking down of the Anti Leagues
effectiveness in its home States. The league has kept
it's cammy thumb the necks of Ohio State politi-
clans for many years. From the little town of West
erve, the leagues national headquarters the poll
cians have been accustomed to receive their orders
They believed in the power of the league and feared
to defy its wishes.
Tuesdays election must have been enlightening
to these Ohio politicians 1t may well be enlighten-
ing to politicians in other States For in this in
stance the AntiSaoon League took its desires direct
y to the people. But couldn't bully-rag or coerce
the people, as it could the politicians It could only
oer its proposal and present such argument in its
favor as there was to present.
1t didn't have enough argument to convince the
people. The bill which the referendum was sub
mitted was bad bill and the people smothered it
with their ballots. But-and here is the point-a
similar and worse bill had previously been given to
the State legislators by the AntiSaloon League and
the legislators had enacted it! They were afraid to
refuse the demand of the league. They passed the
law and later it declared unconstitutional bv
the United States Supreme Court.
The law in question was the one that filed Ohio
with kangaroo oourts"-ofices into which auto
mobists and volators Of liquor statutes found them
selves dragged by enthusiastic constabes dividing the
money collected AS submitted to the people of the
state this law revealed Improvement the court
ana constable received some salary and there was
limit to the amount they could make by fning citi-
zens in any one month. STILL the people of the
State wouldn't have it. The thumb print of the Anti
Saloon League on the measure wasn't saffcient to
persuade the people This true in the rural re-
gions where all hearts alleged to beat in unison
with the league Country precincts as well as city pre-
cincts registered their disapproval
The league must have learned lesson Tuesday
1t is less likely to intrust its fortunes to an open
vote. But, at the same time there is hope that the
politicians have also learned a lesson There is
hope that the legend of the leagues infability has
been destroyed in the minds of public servants here
tofore accustomed to take their orders from that
source.

Banishment for Blackmer

Henry M Blackmer will want to come home some
day.
Blackmer is living in Europe so the United States
Government can not force him to into court
and tell what he knows about the Continental Trad
ing Company and its Liberty bonds the transaction
which the Government says part Of the plan
between Sinclair and Fall to defraud the Government
The Government has notified him it wants him
as witness and he refuses to come.
Billions of dollars the national defense and the
integrity Of Government by the people are involved
in these oil cases. 1t is small matter the United
States has at stake. 1t is no trifng thing in which
Blackmer seeks to defeat the nation of which he is
a citizen.
In spite of Backmers silence the Government has
reganed its oil reserves from Sinclair If Sinclair
and Fall now escape punishment, it will be because
Blackmer has stayed away
But next year, or the year after if he succeeds in
his purpose. Blackmer will try to come home. Shall
he be received?
This Government has said plainly in the few years
just past that it does not want undesirable aliens
within its borders 1t turns back from its shores all
aliens who, in its belief will not make desirable
residents. It subjects aliens who seek citizenship
to tests for loyalty.
Can anyone contend this Blackmer is a desirable
citizenP
Should he then be allowed to come back into the
country?
Is it not clear that he has forfeited all claim and
all right to the shelter and comfort of his homeland?
Blackmer has chosen his course. He has fled
abroad to escape his country's call. Let him now
remain there SO long he lives.
Let Congress provide Punishment for citizens who
refuse to testify for their Government when SUBJ
poenaed, unless they can show good and sufficient
for such refusal Legislation this effect sure
ly would have the complete support of the people.

Counterfeit AS Ever

Il is reassuring and Illuminating to receive
The information that the Christmas present
which the former grand dragon of the Khan
gave to member Of the family Of Senator
Robinson was an imitation pearl necklace.
That runs true to form.
The whole reign of Stephensonism and
Klanism and it's present heirs to power was
Glled with the spurious and the counterfeit.
Some weeks ago The Times naive and
guileless as always, printed the statement of
Senator Robinson that his relations with
Stephenson had been limited to those of client
and lawyer.
1t wanted the people to believe that its rep
resentative in the greatest deliberative body
IN the world had never had any close intimacy
with the States most illustrious guest.
And now comes the black boxes and their
secrets.
Cherished among those secrets and kept
perhaps with fond desire to link himself
with responsibility, is the note of thanks for
pearl necklace.
Perhaps the wives Of the other lawyers of
this State will wonder why they do not re-
eeive such remembrances from their husbands
clients at Yuletide.
They may be consoled.
The gifts Of the man who once boosted that
de was the law, and proved it, were not real
He dealt in department store stuff, if that
term be not libel on the department stores
His gifts of pearls were fakes. He gave
only limitations
The State at last understands and perhaps
is ready to act.
It may understand that he also gave gifts
of imitation Senators and imitation Governors
and imitation Congressman.
He put the counterfeit brand on everything
he touched. Just as the whole movement ne
headed was counterfeit and deception.
But what Of the counterfeits he placed in
office?
Will they dare to seek reelection? Will
they dare to again offer themselves as realY
The pearls were fakes. What about the
statesmen he made whose families he showered
with fakes?
e Can they be real?

TRACY
SAYS:
"Yo@ Can Almost Meas
Mre the Advance of HUI
MON Progress By It's Tri-
Mnepk OVer Plague and
Affection"

Nothing is more unpleasant to
talk about than disease especially
disease of a loathsome character,
but nothing presents a more COM
mon or intimate problem for
average people.
So far as average people are
concerned, the greatest battles
mankind has fought and the most
worth while victories it has won
center around the suppression Of
deadly and painful maladies.
You can almost measure the
advance of human progress by its
triumph over plague and afflic-
ton.
