The political campaign is rapidly
lrawing to close. Only a few days
emain. Soon the great struggle will
,e ended and the side-lights will flash
ipon the election returns of nation,
tate and county. During the interim
he citizen and voter should keep cool,
hink for himself and not be drawn
nto anything calculated to excite or
loud his better judgement. Do your
luty as an honest man and allow no
doubtful influences to sway you from
four conscientious motives and what
you believe to be right. We are all
human; all have much the same
,ame desires but have different views
rs to how to reach that end. One
hing you can do; vote for those whom
you know to be the best men for the
various positions and there will be but
,he natural result, better conditions.
The NEWS believes in standing by
hose who have been tried and found
faithful. Such men, where of ripe ex-
perience and energy, are generally
most capable of guarding the public
interests. This is not q mere politi.
cal statement but statement based
on excellent evidence.
