THE PUBLIC THE SUCCESSFUL MAN

Editor Looey delights in referring to Governor jCox as the millionaire Democratic candidate for president. Well, if Mr. Cox is a millionaire he has made his money by his own individual efforts, as he started in life a poor boy in a newspaper office in a little inland Ohio town. Harding’s father bought a newspaper for his son and gave it to him —and the latter never got beyond the little town of Marlon. Sneers at the man who has made a success in life honestly and by hds own efforts will never get you anywhere, Looey. We want and need the experience of live, successful men in office, not dead ones nor failures.
