The people of town should not fail to
attend the meeting in Robbins opera house
next Tuesday evening. This campaign is
one of education and every taxpayer and
voter should not let lesson slip.
Protection and reciprocity is the CRY.
The people who understand the system of
wild cat banks do not want such institu.
tions. People who do not clearly under
stand what wild cat banks are should net
fail to attend the meeting next Tuesday
evening.
If any voter is doubtful about the true
issues of the present campaign, let him
attend this meeting and hear the principles
of protection and reciprocity clearly
explained.
County Chairman Davis is conducting
an excellent campaign and he declares that
the outlook is more promising than it has
been for many years. This sentiment is
confirmed by many other prominent
members of the party who keep track of
current events and have tact enough to
Judge situations.

The Soldiers Monument Fund Continues
to Climb Up.

The interest in the movement to raise
funds for a soldiers monument in town is
not limited to the people residing here, as
will be seen from the following extract
from Charles G. Palmer, now residing at
Butte City, Montana, to the editor of the
HERALD;
"There are good sprinkling OF Shenandoah
boys here and in my next l will name them all
and tell the HERALD what they are doing. 1
might say one word more: All the boys agree
with the herald that some suitable place in
Shenandoah should be selected for soldiers
monument And, don't forget it, we shall con
tribute our share for such worthy object"
But two dollars more required to raise
the fund to the 5000 mark.

Yesterday the HERALD contained an
account 6 ven by boy of town of treat
ment he received at the hands of tramps
while he was crossing the mountsin on his
way to work at Boston Run oolliery. The
boy claimed that the tranps stopped him
and emptied his dinner pail. The borough
police last night arrested bum and after
closely questioning, concluded he was one
of the tramps who robbed the boy
of his meal. Toe bum has been
committed to the lookup on charge Of
vagrancy. As the complaint made by the
boy yesterday was not the first of the kind
the police are anxious of making an
example of the bum if he can be identified
as one of the guilty parties. If the boy or
his parents will apply to Chief Of Police
DAVIS they will have an opportunity to
see the tramp.

It mskes considerable difference whose
OK is gored. When the HERALD attempts
to show up the meanness Of some people Of
a neighboring town its local scribe gets ION
his ear and begins to tell tales out of
school. This is especially true when the
truth hurts. We have no objections to the
contemporary showing up the shortcom-
ings of our people if they find any and We
are not disposed to squeal. We admit we
have as mean people as some towns, but we
draw the line at PottsYile.

Political campaigns are not conducted AZ
they were thirty or forty years ago. Then,
every fall, the boys used to steal oil and tar
barrels and stack them high above a fire.
The blsze that would shoot through the
opening of the top barrel would enthuse
the old as well as the young, and would
draw immense crowds upon the ground
Meantime the boys would be hurting all
over the place for more oil and tar
barrels. Sometimes tall trees would be
trimmed bare and receive a covering
of barrels to its very height. The tree and
barrels would present a magnificent sight
until they would at last topple over, and
burn to ashes. These bonfres served in
place of fireworks, in use to-day, but the
speakers and attentive audiences were upon
the grounds, as in modern times. Those
good (2) old days have gone. The reminis-
cence Is not an encouragement for their
revival. There would be too much work
for the police and fremen if such demon-
strstiOns were INDUCED in now.
