Cushman of Wisconsin is put down

which is quoted in the Washington
Post. He was once approaching a
town, where he was billed to make a
speech, and stopped at house on the
outskirts to get drink of water. He
met the farmers wife at the we'll.
What is the political sentiment
around here?" asked Cushman. II

TRUSTS RULE

This McKinleyized government is
ru ed by trusts. Even governmental
work which conld be done under gov
ernmental control, Is turned over TO
private concerns. This is financial
folly and official crime. Just recently
the house committee on naval affairs
voted to pay ss4S ton for armor, in
stead Of the maximum price OF $500
demanded by congress.
II is proposed by this body Of trust
pAnderers to put sixty-iive government
ships under construction In private
yards when the government navy
yards prepared TO do the work are I'm
employed.

great respect for Ray and bis associ-

are unwise. Lnred on by the myster-
les of the print shop and the glamor
Of the journalistic horizon, they have
allowed their political conseiences to
be sand-bAgged and their mouths to

was born he kicked. Even at that
early age he kicked at being weighed
in the balance-and found wanting.
For thirty-niae consecutive years plus
he has been kicking. He represents
the most appalling case Of ofstomach and
liver complaint in town. II he is
placed on the school board all the
white teachers will be discharged and
negroes given their places. Renfro is
strong minded enough 10 run any
thing he fAstens on. He will run the
board OF education II elected He will
not give the other members q mo-
ment's peace. With all his pessimism
Renfro is shrewd. He will make
billy-goats of the school teachers
while Winfield Smith, If elected, will
be making monkeys of the taxpayers
on the council. Both Renfro and
Smith are good citizens when left
alone, but placed in Office they are
dangerous, illogical and frowsy.
