ed to the winds being waited in

will Ohio play this your in the battle

Occupying them.
Ohio is he “key stale" id presi-
dential elections. Since 1860 seven
of the twelve presidents were born
in Ohio. In Mark Hanna it produced
the nearest thing the country ever
had to a national political boss.
Since 1869 only man—Grover Cleve-
land—has been chosen without the
twenty-four electoral votes of Ohio.
livery governor of Ohio is a presi-
dential possibility. and nearly every
scnnior has the opportunity to get
the serious attention of a political
convention. Ohio has one or two
men in the cabinet almost continu-
ously—it has produced more cabi-
net. members-in the last 50 years
than any other state. These are some
of the reasons why the Buckeye state
is the cynosure of political observ-
crs.

oilice or two. For Ohio's position
as the “key state" is unquestioned.
“’hy this is qua is explained this
way:
It is middle ground and .battle-
ground, and the drift of the state
is likely to be the drift of the coun-
try. More the political currents of
the country meet and mingle. There
is more genuine independent voting
in it than in any other state. In a.
single county there are more than
25.000 habitually independent voters
The number of regular voters in the
state without party affiliation runs
into several hundred thousand.
Thus. because it in neither Dem-
ocralic nor Republican. politicians
in both parties play the game with
a greater degree of intensity than
any where else and political organ-
ization is more efficient than else-
where.
Another big factor is the great
number of Olilonns who hold fed-
eral office. Every Ohio president
has installed a lot of them. Har-
ding was typical. The result is that
more people play politics in Ohio.
because the inducements are great-
