Nichols to a Re view man yesterday We have good ! material here and the boys are highly ! enthused. We are encouraged in the ! movement by the old democrats, who ! don't like to be called old, but come ] out and help us and work better than | some of the younger members. We I, have secured a nice hall and will have l everything in readiness for an active i campaign in a few days. It is tr-e we | haven't much opposition from those 1 who oppose us in our political views; | the work the club is doing now is | looking after he registering of voters | and helping Judge Perrin in this all | they can. We are going to count for | something in the election in Novem- ber," continued Mir.
