50 COUPLES NOW RUN FOR SINGLE OFFIGE Fergusons of Texas and Pinchots of Pennsylvania Examples of New Era. By Consolidated Press. Are Ma and Pa Ferguson going to set a new political precedent by . ning for Governor of Ti couple? Ma Ferguson practically did that two years ago, but then the Lone Star State was divided Ma was going to be govs own right or whether Pa going to be governor for her. Ma now insists that both Fergusons have been gove: tor and that the job calls for a hus- band and a wife, ‘'fhe Texas experiment has already had its repercussion in the State of Yennsylvania, where it is reported tnat Gov. and Mrs. Gifford Pinchot are going to run for the Senate. Gov. Pinchot has made no secret of the fact that as chief executive of the Keystone State he has leaned heavliy upun Mrs. Pinchot. in whose political Juogment and sagacity he is said to have unbounded faith Mrs. Pinchot Campaigning. Mrs. Pinchot already has started the campaign for her husband and is mak- ing speeches in ny parts of the State. She is addr ng herself large- 1y to the women of the commonwealth, and it is easily to be surmised that if Mr. Pinchot is able once more to beat the powerful Republican machine in his home State and wrest the nomina tion away from Senator George Whar- ton Pepper Mrs. Pinchot will feel that much of the responsibility of the sena torship will fall upon her even if she 18 not able to invade the Senate floor and take personal issue with the forces of reaction. Mrs. Pinchot is echoing her hus band’s sentiments about Mr. Andrew Mellon, the Sccretary of the Treasury. She charges Mr. Mellon with having thwarted attempts to enforce prohiby tion in Pennsylvania and says that permits issued by him have protected many illegal sources of alcohol. ! Pinchot also accuses the Secretary anew of having “smuggled wine into Washington.” She has demanded to know how the eighteenth amendment can ever be enforced with “‘a man like that” at the head of the enforcement forces. The experiment of husband and wife control of political office is decidedly an interesting one. Ma and Pa Fer Euson are going to test public sen- timent on their share in the experi ment by running again for office. At least Ma will be on the ticket as the runner, but evérybody will know that Pa will continué to do business at the || ©ld stand in Austin, just as he has done ever since the day Ma was in- augurated. Novelty Interests Public. The great American people appear to be more startled over the fact that a woman official should call upon her husband for help than that a man official should openly ask his wife for assistance. Since men and women have come to political equal- ity there is really not much to choose from in the two situations. There are many Senators and Rep- resentatives here in Washington who openly admit that they owe their pres- ent jobs to their wives, to feminine tact, diplomacy and general help. It was even commonly admitted a few years ago that President Harding had risen to the highest office in the land through the influence of his wife, who was a far better politician than her President-husband ever had been or could ever hope to be. Mr. Harding had wanted to remain in the Senate. Mrs. Harding wanted him to go to the White House. Mrs. Harding put him in the pre-conven- tion primaries and held him there against his constant wish to withdraw. Mrs. Harding had a will of steel; Mr. Harding was something of a drifter. Mrs. Harding had her way and she let it be known after the election that in certain matters of rewarding friends or punishing enemies she would have the final word at the White House. Mr. Harding had im- plicit faith in his wife's political judg- ment, or intuition, or whatever you choose to call it. There has been discussion for some time as to what should done in the future with the husbands of women elected to high office. In the past the wives of husbands in high office have been more or less content to hide their lights under a bushel. It has been supposed that husbhands would not be so quiescent, although as a rule where the wife takes the lead in a family the husband gener- ally is found to be ultra quiescent. Pa and Ma have set the style of dividing the office. Gov. and Mrs. Pinchot are doing virtually the same thing. So perhaps here we have the solution without much difficulty, after all.

Three years granted the degree of here. He taught in Columbus North High School between 1895 and 1902 In the latter year he returned to Ohio State as an instructor in politi- | cal science and American history and law.
