We have said in previous issues
that we would not support the
Populist State ticket as a whole,
and have not changed our opin

heartily endorse. On local Off
ces our people should cast party
aside and elect the best men and
women to Office.

: The mayor of Wallace has is
IS sued a proclamation in which he
declares that the charivari mus
'f go. He says This city ha'
q too long been disgraced by tha
y relic of the barbarous ages callet
y the charivari. May it be said te
