Complaint has been frequently made that
many persons fail to take out their licenses,
and that 9th rs pay on one or two dogs when
owning and harboring more, or sending them
away during the summer months and bringing
them back in the fall.
MY attention has been called to this evasion

Get Ready for Business,

With election day only four days dis
tant 1t is not out of place to suggest
to voters who believe sincerely in the
principles represented by the Republi-
can party that enthusiasm and zeal,
to be most thoroughly effective, re-
quirc to be supplemented by system
attic organization and careful detail
work. An organization of the Republic
can party has been formed in this con-
gressional district and it is a good one,
but it Is not so good that it cannot
be made better If every earnest Re-
publican who has not yet done so will
put himself in communication with the
COMMITTEEMAN in his district and re-
port for duty.
The Democrats have charged that
this was to be a campaign character
lied by the profuse expenditure of
money. The charge is false and the
Democrats who make it know that it
is false. If a campaign for the protec-
tion of our local industries and for the
honesty and honor of our currency
cannot be won on its merits; If these
interests are not of sufficient concern to
the voters of Lackawanna county to
render them energetic in their behalf.
then the sooner we have free trade
and free silver the better. A purchased
victory Is a moral defeat, and 1t is an
insult to the manhood of our commu-
nifty to insinuate that its electoral
favor is commodity for bargain and
sale.
A rousing victory for the whole Re-
publican ticket can be won in this
county next Tuesday If every voter in
sympathy with the Republican posi-
tion will take pains to help roll 1t up.
He will benefit himself more than
anybody else by doing it. 1t is pri-
marily his fight. He is the one whom
free trade has injured and whom free
silver would despoii. He it is whom
restored Protection and continued
sound money would directly and per-
ceptibly benefit. Let him look to It,
then, that his interests are not ne
elected. Let him see to it that the Re-
publican majority is impressive.
