It is usual at this time of year that the office of the Governor be made a polictical melting pot, but instead of politicians, it has been relief workers and agencies which have marshalled their forces in the oflice of the Ohio executive. No one would suspect that this is the year of election of a "President and Governor, and while a few politicians failed to grasp the necessity for immediate action in the relief campaign, a visit to the office of Governor Donahey soon impressed the fact unon them that it was not a good time to attempt to talk politics. Governor Donahey, who left his 4 family in New Philadelphia for the scene of the disaster within a few hours after it occurred, has worked night and day to help the stricken population. Every agency of his office has been, turned over for relief purposes, and every employee has been devoting his time and'attention to the •work.

The Right of Way [Copyrighted for The Sun by W. N. U.] WOMAN IS IN RACE FOR LEGISLATURE Mrs. Margaret Allman of Canton Seeks Nomination On Democratic Ticket, But She Is Not a Blind Partisan. CUT TAXES, HER SLOGAN The announcement that Mrs. Margaret Allman of Canton is a candidate for the legislature and that she is the first woman from Stark county tp seek a state office is interesting for several reasons. To begin with, under the present law Mrs. Allman is compelled to seek the nomination under the errfblem of a political party, and so it is as a Democrat that she is making the race with three men also seeking the honor. As three are to be nominated, one of the men or Mrs. Allman is to be the loser. Although a Democrat, Mrs. Allman is not a partisan. She believes that the state senate and the state legis lature should conduct the affairs of the state on business lines strictly, and that the best way to, serve the interests of the people is to cut out the political labels and run the state as you would a large corporation. Is Against Extravagance Mrs. Allman's platform isn't a long one, but it is becoming popular all over the United States. Briefly stated it is: Reduce taxes. A living minimum wage scale for women. No graft in public improvements. Get rid of the fellows sitting in swivel chairs and drawing pay for doing nothing. Compel a man or woman holding a state job to work faithfully each day, and if they are shirkers put them out of office. Taxes are altogether too high in Ohio, and it is time to begin reducing them by practising economy it- public affairs. Nice Woman To Meet Mrs. Allman is a life-long resident of Stark county, and when her husband died a number of years ago she was left with a family of four boys. Three are now in school in Canton. She is an intelligent, good-looking and agreeable woman, and she has entered the lists as a candidate for the legislature solely, she says, that the people should have the burden of excessive taxation lifted from their shoulders.

The Right of Way [Copyrighted for The Sun by W. N. U.] WOMAN IS IN RACE FOR LEGISLATURE Mrs. Margaret Allman of Canton Seeks Nomination On Democratic Ticket, But She Is Not a Blind Partisan. CUT TAXES, HER SLOGAN The announcement that Mrs. Margaret Allman of Canton is a candidate for the legislature and that she is the first woman from Stark county tp seek a state office is interesting for several reasons. To begin with, under the present law Mrs. Allman is compelled to seek the nomination under the errfblem of a political party, and so it is as a Democrat that she is making the race with three men also seeking the honor. As three are to be nominated, one of the men or Mrs. Allman is to be the loser. Although a Democrat, Mrs. Allman is not a partisan. She believes that the state senate and the state legis lature should conduct the affairs of the state on business lines strictly, and that the best way to, serve the interests of the people is to cut out the political labels and run the state as you would a large corporation. Is Against Extravagance Mrs. Allman's platform isn't a long one, but it is becoming popular all over the United States. Briefly stated it is: Reduce taxes. A living minimum wage scale for women. No graft in public improvements. Get rid of the fellows sitting in swivel chairs and drawing pay for doing nothing. Compel a man or woman holding a state job to work faithfully each day, and if they are shirkers put them out of office. Taxes are altogether too high in Ohio, and it is time to begin reducing them by practising economy it- public affairs. Nice Woman To Meet Mrs. Allman is a life-long resident of Stark county, and when her husband died a number of years ago she was left with a family of four boys. Three are now in school in Canton. She is an intelligent, good-looking and agreeable woman, and she has entered the lists as a candidate for the legislature solely, she says, that the people should have the burden of excessive taxation lifted from their shoulders.
