The Leader wants the voters Of
this district to vote purely in its
interest next Tuesday. 1t has mar
rowed the Campaign down to that
point. Ii there is one reason more
than another why the voters should
do the opposite it is because that
paper is interested. 1t is n bitter
enemy of Elk Point, and does all it
can to hurt the town and malign its
foremost citizens. The COURIER
believes the voters understand this
fact perfectly.

are open to visitors free of charge.
