a CANDIDATE BATTERED.

The candidate seeking votes with
out publishing his card, who has
told people that rather than to pay
the Times FIVE dollars for his an
nouncement. he will give the money
to charitable cause can now have
the opportunity.
Here is at you brother. For every
dollar not heretofore promised that
YOU will contribute 20 any church in
the county Or 10 any helpless widow
not related to you IL the county, we
promise TO give TWO dollars. The only
conditions that we impose, IS that
you must make {. fair and square
contribution without aid from others
and that this shall be independent Of
any contribution heretofore prom
ised.
Now Mr. Candidate, you have a
right to squeeze your dollars until
the eagles s,-uall, but you have no
right to pose as contributor to
charity unless you live up to your
professions. There will be no need
of a committee waiting on us in this
matter; the only thing necessary is,
for the candidate who made the as
sertion to prove his faith by his
works and to remember distinctly
that the editor will pay two dollars
for every one paid by the candidate.
This proposition stands until the
primary closes.
