The seventh proposed amendment on Ohio’s ballot expands each house to compel witnesses and documents to support investigations of legislative action or alleged misconduct. It aims to prevent blockages seen in past Drake Committee cases and to empower both houses to enforce attendance and protect honest members while restraining corrupt lobbyists. The Journal endorses Yes and urges readers to vote yes.

He faults worn sieve bottoms in driven wells and urges immediate action: drill new wells on 84 acres west of the Pennsylvania rail line, avoid Campbell Island Farm, and convene a special city council session or seek state health department emergency authority.
