RENEGADE OHIO.

There are so many divergent angles to the stirring national election through which the country has just passed that it will be many days before they cease to be of editorial interest. 'Mr. Hughes owes his defeat to a number of things, but to one thing above all others and that Is the loss of Ohio. All the fussing over California and Minnesota and a number of other unimportant little western states doesn't amount to a hill of beans by the side of Ohio the Ohio of revered McKinley's memory. How the corses of McKinley, Ilanna and other illustrious Ohioans gone where there is no more politics, must turn over in their coffins to think of democratic Ohio. Here is Michigan on the north of her, Pennsylvania on the east of her, Indiana to the west of her, all strongly republican. ,Here are Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa keeping the faith, while Kentucky and Missouri will see the day soon when they will be entrenched in republican ranks. Yet Ohio, once a proud republican state, wallows election after election in the democratic" trough. Had Ohio gone for Hughes he would have been elected. As a part of the great middle west we trad every right to think it would do so, but she stands alone an isolated fortress of bourbonism trying to break into the solid south.

THE EUROPEAN WAR AND THE AMERICAN NEGRO. Due to the demands of industry, the shut-oft of the stream of southwestern European immigrants and the high wages paid, there has been, a steady influx of negroes from the south. The steel mills of Gary and Indiana Harbor are using the services of many of them in lieu of the foreign laborers that ordinarily would be coming in. Other industries are employing negroes, and contractors engaged in railway construction work here have recruited many. Here the negro gets from $2.50 to $3 a day, where in the south a dollar might be considered a fair wage. But the south is not so cordial to us for taking away her negro help. Just now southern industries are booming and the leaving of large numbers of the common laborers has affected them in no uncertain way. Perhaps the treatment they get in the north makes wages not the sole inducement for the darky to come to the colder clime. An insight into this Is shown in the report of the staff correspondent of an eastern newspaper Investigating the situation in the south. He writes: . "One Jacksonville negro who was waiting for an offer of a free ride and good wages to go north told the World correspondent he wanted to go where he could get 'more money and better treatment and quit the country where the white people knocked and cuffed negroes and treated them as if they were not human.' "Out of the several hundred negroes interviewed, the one just referred to is the only one who gave as a rea'son for going north the treatment he had received in Florida. Most of them declared they were going where they could make more money and have more advantages."

If the southern negro finds his present position a soft of serfdom the

prosperity resulting from the war overseas is affording him a chance to bet

ter his condition.

NECESSARY TO LIFE OF CITY.

One of the boosters m the Kasi Chicago Chamber or commerce said to the secretary the other day: "A business man in a community who is not sufficiently interested to contribute his moral and active support to the Chamber of Commerce should not receive the same consideration from his business associates as the man who does support the Chamber, and through it the commercial and industrial advancement of the city." Is it not true that every principle of social development points to the condemnation of the man who will not help? Captain John Smith advanced pretty much the same idea when in the days of the Jamestown settlement he took exception to the laziness of some of the colonists, and told them that those who would not work might not eat. Any business man who has an idea that he can profit by the work of the local Chamber of Commerce while doing none of the work, is laboring

under a delusion. The general public, as well as the workers in the organization, know who are the shirkers and they develop an appropriate opJnion of them. We profit by helping along public works because it does us good to fret into that sort of thing, and we profit in a more selfish way because people will help those that help them. Membership in a Chamber of Commerce is not only a privilege but it is a real asset from the standpoint of individual development of rubbing elbows with the boosters of the city and in the satisfaction that conies to every man from a sense of doing his duty.

THIS MAN LIKES A SUBSTANTIAL WIFE. In the November American Magazine there is a story about fat sirls and it is called "A Fat Chance." Jack Lait, who wrote it, says: "And the fat girl, beneath whose apple blossom warmly beat3 a heart as human as ever ticked within the structure of the skinniest shrimp alive, whose face is unwrinkled yet unsung, knows that her lines have been made funny by funny lines, and that no man can ever kneel at her feet without laughing. "Yet those who have charged into the trenches of the kidders and dared to love a girl who couldn't squeeze into a misses' size, tell strange tales o: how comfy and satisfying the oversized ones are. Some men have substantia! tastes. I, for instance, when T crook my wing about a female, like to
