VOTE FOR UNION MEN

We desire to call the attention of
the trade unionists of the city to the
fact that there are quite a number
of union men in the list of council
men candidates to be voted upon
next Tuesday. These men mostly
have been good and true to the cause
and are deserving of the support of
all trades unionists. Several of them
have given up much of their time and
effort to the movement, indeed they
have sometimes sacrificed much to its
betterment. Then there are several
who were in the movement for years
and now carry withdrawal cards only
because they have entered into busi-
ness for themselves, but whose hearts
are right on all questions dealing
with labor. They, too, are deserving
of consideration by union men.
1t is easy to determine who these
union candidates are, and why not
select ticket of this kind and then
have somebody whom you know is
fright" when the scratch" comes ?
Ask around little bit and stay with
the colors.

THE PARK BONDS

Hamilton now has the chance, the
best chance in all its history, to get
one of the finest large and beautiful
parks in the state. And this without
practically the cost of a dollar to the
general taxpayers.
The Press refers to the develop
ment of the Peck's Addition, as pro-
posed, into fine park. The city
already owns about 65 acres of the
high land surrounding the addition,
which it is proposed to divide into
500 building lots. But before these
lots can be sold it is necessary to make
them attractive to buyers. This is
to be done by the purchase of approx
imately 85 acres in the lowlands of
the addition and converting them into
a fine park with recreational and
Fairgrounds, the making of streets
and a fine boulevard all around the
whole
But to acquire the lowland, con-
vert it into a park, lay out streets,
boulevard, ETC., money is needed. The
park board, for the purpose, is SUBJ
mitting a bond issue of $175,000 to
the people at the coming election.
The SITS, 900 asked for by the board
should be considered in the nature
of temporary loan, for after the
proposed development of the land, as
contemplated, it is expected that the
money from the sale of the 500 lots
on the high ground will redeem and
retire the bonds to be issued.
So it is plain to be seen that Ham,
ilton can get this long desired i'm
provement without single dollar of
expense to the taxpayers. Surely
Hamilton doesn't want to miss this
great opportunity. Let US vote the
loan to the park board.

BONDS.

the pupils. The cause of this pres
ent overcrowded condition is plain
and simple. There has been prac-
tically no building of schools in Ham
ilton during the past twelve years.
And all during this time the school
population has been increasing in
leaps and bounds. Statistics show
that the school population during
these past twelve years has increas
ed so per cent-that is there are
2650 more pupils in our public
schools today than there were
twelve years ago.
To relieve the congestion and to
care for the school needs for several
years to come, the board of education
has mapped out five-year building
program, and is submitting to the
voters for their approval bond issue
of $1,500,0OO This money if voted
will not all be spent at once, but will
be used as the needs require.
To keep up the good work in our
schools we must furnish the facili-
ties, and in order to do this the board
of education must have money for
the erection of buildings and to fur
nish them.
The Press has every confilerce in
our board of education, and believes
when they state the needs of the city
and the amount of money required to
acquire them the citizens generally
can take it for granted the figures
are correct, and should grant the
boards request without hesitation.
For the sake of our boys and girls,
the Press urges a ''Yes" vote on the
school bonds.

THE ELECTION

Next Tuesday is election day and
it should be considered by Hamilton
ians as one of the most important
ever before them. January 1st is to
see complete turnover of the city's
government, change in administra-
ton. Whether we have been salts
fled or dissatisfied with administra-
tions in the past has nothing to do
with tive are in for new stunt
of conducting the city's affairs.
We are to have the charter form
of government with city manager,
backed by council of seven mem
bers. The general public will have
nothing to do with the selection of
the city manager, who under the
charter will be the whole works, but
the general public has MUCH TO
Do with the selection of the seven
members of council, who in turn Sc
lect the city manager.
1t is up to every citizen, man and
woman, to go to the polls next Tues
day and vote. There are 81 candi-
dates for council member. The voter
should scan the list carefully and
select only the best men, regardless
of political afiliation, ever keeping
in mind only the best interest of the
city, and vote for them. The list of
candidates contains many desirable
men for conducting the city's affairs
during the next two years, and it
should be no trouble at all to select
a fine council body.
If you don't vote for only the best
to be had, don't complain in the fu-
tuPe at some of the actions of those
you help to elect.
Whatever you do,VOTE next Tues
day.

GREEN. LABOR ENGINEER

Bill Green must have been a good
miner when he worked in the mines.
He is the kind of man that would be
good at whatever job he tackled. He
was good legislator in the Ohio
house of representatives. He was
good secretary ry-treasurer Of the.
United Mine Workers.
He has now been the chief engi-
neer of labor's forces for nearly
three years. Those who saw him per-
form through the Los Angeles con-
vention say he earned every bit of
praise that could be given him. He
was engineer, general, counsellor and
guide.
And as presiding officer he mani
tested kindliness, a tact and toler-
ance that left respect everywhere and
rancor nowhere. SOME MAN, this
president of the American Fedora
ton of Labor.

which were alleged to have an impor-

MARKING YOUR BALLOT

In marking your ballot for council
members be sure to disregard the old
manner of marking with an X be-
fore the name of those you desire
to vote for. On the council ticket
use only figures before those you wish
to help elect, such as the figure !
before your first choice, the figure 2
before your second choice, and SO on
until you have marked at least seven
choices, the number of men to be
elected.
However, it is advisable that you
mark more than seven. The voter
ought to mark for twelve at least, for
it is possible that all of the first
seven you mark for will be eliminat-
ed from the race before your ballot
is reached and it will count for none.
On the other hand if you mark
for more than seven, say twelve, it
is possible that your ballot will still
help elect someone. Your ballot
helps to elect but one man at any
time, in that is where we get the
proportional representation.
On all other ballots than the coun-
Gil ballot, use the X mark in voting,
just as you have always done.

North Cardinals Introspection:

North Cardinals Introspection:
There is at least one State in the
South that is beginning to tell the truth
about itself This state is North Caro-
lima They have found out that North
Carolina has more illiterate white
women than any state in the union;
44,053. That is, there are that many
white females in the State who have
reached the age OF ten and can neither
read nor write. The report says moth
ing about Mississippi. This makes me
doubt that North Carolina is in the
lead in female illiteracy. At any rate
| feel pretty certain that the per cent
Of illiteracy in Mississippi is higher
than in any other state in America.
Next to North Carolina comes Ken
lucky with it barefoot mountaineers
and corn whisky experts. Then come
Tennessee with its Cumberland Val
ley prIllaltS, LOulSldlld Ol lHC IdllO-
breaks, Alabama and Tom Hef1in,
Georgia with rope and torch, Texas
the steer country, Virginia with F. F.
VS. and 24,340 illiterate white women,
South Carolina next to Mississippi the
most savage community on earth, Ar
kansas where they don't know nOthin
and don't want to know nothin.'
| doubt that the average white man
in the South wants the white women
to be intelligent and literate. For if
these women learn to read and think
they may have some uncomplimentary
things to say about the male and his
grandiose ideas Of chivalry as it re-
lates to white women and Negro men.
And too, the men don't know much
themselves With their inherent
energy it is probable that in few
years the intelligence OF the South will
be in the possession of the women.
That is, if the wise men OF the legis-
lature permit the women to get rid OF
their illiteracy.
