Says Graves
Parties Can Put Whom They
Please On Their Tickets
(Columbus Dispatch)
Can u Democrat file a Republican
petition or vice versa?
This was the question put up to
Secretary of Stale Graves yesterday
from Medina County nnd his reply
was: "There is absolutely no law to
prevent tho Doniocrntlc electors from
offering as their candidate any per
son, Irrespective of party afllllatlon."
If Republicans dcslro to place Dem
ocrats on their ticket, or It Demo
crats would like to name Prohibition
ists, there Is nothing to prevent their
doing so, Mr. Graves says.
James Kong has filed a protest, as
sorting that tho name of L. 13. Can
yard should not be placed on tho bal
lot as a Democratic candidate for
county surveyor on tiio ground that
ho is not a Democrat, but n Republi
can. (lanyard wrote to Secretary
Graves, saying:
" I was elected county surveyor In
1802 us a Republican, but at tho Re
publican county convention In June
1901, I was deprived of a renomlna
tlon tlnough fraud. Of this I havo
ubHolulo proof. I stood by the Re
publican party until February, 1008,
when I told my friends that my next
vote would bo for Bryan, as he
preaches something cleaner than wo
havo in Medina County. I havo vot
ed tho straight Democratic ticket
since then, except that I havo sup
ported throe personal friends, who
happened to be Republicans."
Secretary Ornvcs says: "This
man's name should go on the ticket."

That Stays
Stylish
Yon young fellows who know and like the
smart distinction of style in the clothes we sell,
can host-understand why we say so much about
quality.
You want style; but what's the good of st h
that doesn't stay stylish? Do you know wln.f it
is that keeps these
Ik! Schdffner 8 Mi
clothes looking well, even after a whole season's
wear? It's the most important thing to know
about clothes.
All-wool fabrics first; there are plenty of
clothes that are not all-wool. Scientific shrink
ing by cold water; a process that cotton mixtures
can't stand. The best tailoring; skilled hands
shaping the garment, not just sewing seams to
gether. These are the things you get when you buy
Uart Sclia I'f nor & Marx clothes here. They're
the things you want to get.
