WHEREVER the republican can

WHEREVER the republican cam
didate for state senator can find
an alleged democrat whose love
of money or liquor is greater
than his democracy, that man
is put to work for Findlay.
There are two or three such in
the county. Democrats and
populists, you know these men
and the influence behind them.
A republican senator and repre-
sentative will vote for a republi-
can for U. S. Senator. That is
the secret of the extraordinary
efforts republicans are making
for Findlay and Shaw. Vote for
Geo. B. Ross and M. w. CObun
and you will be standing by the
interests of your county and
yourselves.
