And Then ''Time' Will be Called on
All Voters.
Congressman johnson Will Deliver
Three Addresses This
Week.

The campaign will be concluded this
week. and the remaining nights prom
tse to be lively ones
Congressman Grove L. Johnson Will
be heard at three places in this county
during the week. This evening ne Will
speak at Folsom, on Thursday evening
at Oak Park, and on Saturday evening
he will make one more appeal 10 the
voters of this city to stand Dy their
home interests by casting their ballots
on election day for the Repupl1can
nominees and Republican principles.
Mr.. johnson thoroughly understands
the needs of Sacramento and OF the rest
of his district. He understands the
needs Of the wage earners, and is bend
ing his energies in their behalf. Be
cause political enemies outside or Sac
ramento are training all their mud bat
teries on him and striving to encom-
pass his defeat, is one of the best rea-
sons why the people Of this county
should stand shoulder to shoulder in
his support, regardless of their party
affiliations.
At the meetings to be addressed by
him this week Mr. Johnson will un-
mask his enemies, as he has been doing
right along, and show them up in their
true colors. He stands for the princi-
pies Of his party-for protection to the
workingman and for legislation that
will insure them steady work and good
wages. No public man can engage in
any nobler mission than this, and Mr..
JOhnson's record in the past is a suff1-
cient guarantee that he is earnest and
honest in his promises to the people. Go
and hear him, all you who are waver-
ing as to your duty to yourselves and
your families.
