POLITICAL
j. GOSSIP.

Well six candidates are happy In the
third Representative district while twenty
five are not wearing as broad smile as
they did on Friday last.
Tho shoulder hitters and ballot boz
suffers have lost their occupation but tho
persuaders were in evidence on Saturday
last around every voting place
/. Politics are not yet run on the Sunday
school plan OF some mon who never take
any interest in tho elections only to cast
their ballot
Vest pocket voting was in evidence on
Saturday last.
Lucky Is the man who receives one half
of the votes that are promised lin.
The number Of Republicans who voted
on Saturday last Is far in excess Of tho
number that voted at the Democratic pri-
maries.o Saturday week.
Only those who voted at tho prim ary
election on Saturday last can vote at the
primaries next Spring for Mayor and other
local offices.
One section of the oath of office that
each member of the Legislature has to
take Is Us follows:
"And 1 do further solemnly swear Tor
affirm that have not directly Or indirect.
ly paid. offered Or promised TO pay, con.
tributed or offered or promised 10 contrib.
ute any money or.other valuable thing asa
consideration or reward for the giving or
vote at tho election at which
l was elected to said office"
The printing Of tho ballots with the
name, Winfield S. Vernon In tho third
district was misleadinga as
he was known to most persons as W. Scott

Mnnitoban Cure for Drunkenness

They have very effective way Of
putting the brakes on inebriates up in
Manitoba" said Mr.. 0. A. Bemis of
Minnesota at the Ebbitt
when a man has been convicted
twice or thrice for drunkenness in the
local police courts, he is sentenced to
wear a brass collar, which Is a plain
tip to saloon-keepers that he Is a per-
son to whom it is forbidden to sell
any intoxicating beverages. No man
with this badge Of disgrace can get a
drink anywhere, for the law Is strict
ly respected. The result is that in
many cases an entire cure is effected
In the individual. Whenever the au-
thorities think that the collar penalty
has been endured long enough the COL
lar comes off and the citizen is at lib.
erty to get drink"
