D. II. Evans, of Tracy, has been nominal

member of congress. He was mentioned for
the position early in the summer, and re-

press of all kinds of political faith, but at

There is going to be bitter fight in this
congressional district in the present campaign

he can wear more winning smiles in minute

Mr.. Eustis must have spent that $500 on
buttons alone If the rest of the state has
been flooded like this county has. But all
the buttons in the world will not make a
sensible man vote for a slippery politician

Some one has remarked that the Republi-
