COMMENT ON COX
v.
Members of Daily News Force Much
Gratified?Marion Star Admits
Ability.
Both Governor Cox and Senator
Harding beintr newspaper men and
both puFdishing in Ohio, it is interesting
to note the comment made by
the Dayton Daily News and the Marion
Star, their respective papers, on
the nomination of trovernor uox.
Harding's Paper.
Senator Harding's Marion Star
says:
"The action of the San Francisco
convention in selecting Gov. James
M. Cox to head the Democratic ticket
will receive, we believe, the approval
f the rank and file of the supporters
of the administration.
"The dominant influence early manifested
in the convention was such that
the general thought was that the
honor would go to Mr. McAdoo, Attorney
General Palmer or some other
personage prominent in the party who
was closely in touch with the administration.
This thought was intensified
when the almost absolute control
of the White House was made plain
m the framing of the platform, Naturally
the view was that the convention,
having followed in detail the
platform plans and specifications as
sponsored, would name one high in
administration favor to make the
race. The tribute wh;-' the conven.
tfico has paid to the nominee is thu.tS
the greater.
"*** " i a 1 _ * i.L ?
"wnue tne general irena or me ?nnrtical
views of Governor Cox is away
from those held and advocated by this
paper, we none the less frankly rec(
agnize his ability as demonstrated in
business and political life alike.
"The Presidential candidates of the
two dominant parties thus being determined,
it is pleasing to believe that
the campaign will be conducted upon
the elevated lines which the high office
bespeaks, if it is within the power
of the nominees to control it."
Cox's Paper.
The Dayton Daily News has the following
comment on the nomination:
"It is hardly necessary to say that
the news of the nomination of Go.-.
James M. Cox, for President of the
United States, by the Democratic party
in national convention at San Fran?
cisco, furnishes the theme for unalloyed
happiness at The News office.
Those of us who'have been his associates
in the conduct of this paper
have been talking about this thing
for a long time. We rather expected
it, in fact. Life is ever so much
sweeter to every one, from pressroom
to the roof.
"The employes of The News are
conscious of a great distinction coming
not oily to the newspaper itself
and its publisher, but to the city of
Dayton, the State of Ohio, and the nation
as well. It becomes rather difficult
to collect one's thoughts under
v the circumstances of the moment. We
want to congratulate the 'Chief because
we believed he deserved to win.
It was written in the stars that this
greatest honor should come to him.
His record as governor ot unio, as
representative from the historic Third
Ohio district, and as private citizen
Dayton is brilliant No man who endeavors
first to be of sen-ice to his
fellows can be denied a place in the
world. The universe admires a man
who sticks everlastingly at it until the
principles he favors are triumphant.
"Governor Cox is a man of principle.
He always has been. Whether
it is in the newspaper office, or in
the governor's chair, the 'Chief always
has been the same. When he decides
that a thing must be done for the
good of every one, he makes*up his
Triin/J that hp will ficht it Out On that
line if it takes all summer and winter.
"It is not necessary to review his
official life. This record i3 illuminated
by achievements quite beyond the limits
of the space at our command at
this instant. He is progressive in
every meaning of the word. He is
intensely human. He loves his fellowmen
and he takes pride in helping
them. We like to think of him at this
moment as the man who started in
life as a farmer's boy. The opportunities
of primitive farm life were too
limited to hold a man of his striking
* -rr V )
abilities and ambitions, ne wor*eu
as a reporter, then went to Washington
as Congressman Sorg's secretary,
then bought the Dayton News. Then
he went to congress and was reelected.
A jump to the governor's office fol.
lowed and then two more terms, a
record of no mean consequence in
Ohio. What he did in the way of initiating
and pressing highminded leg-1
islation for the citizenship of his home
state now is history, eternally written
in the hearts and minds of his
fellow citizens.
"We'd like to say to him today,
'Congratulations, Jim,' but he's the
chief around here, and we don't call
him 'Jim' to his face. But we cannot
help, one and all, from the newsboy
on the streets to the men who are associated
with him in the conduct of
the paper, saying: 'Congratulations,
governor, God bless you. You'll make
latter
}
a great president and we're for youfrom
now on, just as we have been in j
the other years when the game some-1
times went hard against us.'
"And we extend to Mrs. Cox and
the members of the governor's family
tiie same hearty felicitations. Dayton
we know, is proud of this new distinction.
We know Ohio is. When everybody
in the United States knows as
much about Gov. James M. Cox as
those who know him best and appreciate
his thorough honesty and high
purpose in public life, we seem to
catch a vision of tlie White House,
with the 'Chief there. There has
come to all of us a vision oL the universal
affection for the man, of the
same variety as that which his newspaper
associates in Dayton always
have held."
o
Prize Baking.
A great many women who are nat
urally fine cooks, never really accomplish
prize quality baking, becaus"
they do not have the advantage of a
completely air-tight oven. During
the week beginning Monday, Aug. 9th
to Aug. 14th, a visiting demonstrator
of the famous Great Majestic Range
will be at the King Hardware Co.'s
store. This range is riveted in all
its parts, so that no heat escapes from
the oven. The baking results are wonderful,
and with saving of fuel, besides.
Also it gift of fine cooking
ware, a complete set, goes with each
Majestic Range sold during Demonstration
Week. The price of the
range will be the same as always?no
charge for the set of cooking ware.?

J. N. HAMMET NOT TO BLAME
For Bad Condition nf Roads and
Bridges Since New Law.
Editor County Record: It has come
to my healing that quite a number of
people are blaming J. N. Hammet,
County Supervisor, for the bad condition
of {he roads and bridges in the
County, and for the clearing and cutting
of timber along some of the public
roads by the chain gang. This is
placing blame on a man who is not
responsible for it. Thinking people
ought to think more, and remember
that the County Government was
changed about eight years ago, and
the supervision of roads and bridges
was taken out of the hands of a supervisor
and placed in the hands of a
road engineer, then an elective office,
(since an appointive).
Since then this responsibility 1 as
been delegated to five County Commissioners,
appointed, and the Road
Engineer, the Supervisor's duties being
defined, makes him absolutely the
clerk.
Mr. Haramct has had the training
and makes an excellent clerk, and I do
not like to see an injustice done a
painstaking and efficient officer, as
he has proven himself to be. I might
further say that the County Commissioners
and Road Engineer are doing
all in their power for the benefit of
roads and bridges.
