ANOTHER REFORuER.
To the Editor OF Ing AEsus.

To the Editor OF THE AEsUs.
Terra Alta, WestYa., Nov. 18th,
lS99.-Will you please announce
my name as a candidate for the
Legislature from the East Side.
l have decided to become can
didate for two reasons, to wit /:
First to satisfy longing that has
filled my heart for some time and
second for philanthropic reasons
which | will explain as briefly as
possibly have been married for
twenty years and in that time
have bought at least ten dozen Of
eggs and at least ten pounds of
butter per month. Now, at least
one fourth Of the 20 called butter
would not have made good axle
grease. Now | want to 90 to the
Legislature to have a law passed
compelling every seller Of eggs to
have his name and address stamped
on every egg with a rubber stamp
or otherwise and every seller of
butter to have his name printed on
sheet of paper which shall be
wrapped around each roll of butter.
If this is done then we can tell to
certainty who sells us rotten
eggs and rancid butter. claim
that a man does no more harm by
breaking in my house and robbung
me OF my money than he does by
selling me eggs which he knows
are rotten or butter which is half
tallow.
| will no. expect the votes OF
dishonest farmers, but l will ex-
pect the vote Of every honest one
and of every citizen who believes
as do in regard TO the butter and
egg question.
All persons who will support me
are kindly requested to drop me a
postal card, care of The ARGUS.
Yours faithfully,
MIKE HUNT.

The overwhelming defeat Of the
Republican ticket in Nebraska is
considered a personal tribute to
Bryan and settles lis nomination
next year without any opposition.
Nebraska has been a very strong
Republican State, but gave Bryan
over $4,000 majority 10 1896 and
about $4,000 this time. Is there
any way the Republicans can get
around this tribute to Bryan ?
