An Explanation Desired.

The Grit-Advocate suggests
that as they will have no county
ticket to elect this fall that their
politicians might come over and
assist us just to keep in practice.
That is all right, Brother Braxtan,
but you need not expect us to re-
turn the compliment next fall.
Nebraska women positively re-
fuse to take u hand in the fracas.
-Chappell Register.
Brother Johnson, the meaning
you seek to convey in the above
article is rather obscure. We are
unable to determine whether you
desire to create the impression
that there are no politicians in
Deuel. county excepting women,
or that your politicians are all
women. Please explain your
self.
