4 LAST EFFORT.

The publication in the News-Demo-
crat. the local Democratic organ, re-
garding letters alleged to have been
sent 10 the addresses of the Republi-
can voters by the Republican commit
tee, is only another desperate effort Of
the gang to intimidste. Being unsuc.
cessful in the effort to strike from the
registration books the names Of legal
voters, they now claim as a last resort
that Republican voters do not live at
the addresses they gave and attempt a
bluff by saying something about "aT-
resting voters st the polls" AS a
matter of fact, the only letters sent
out by Republicans to Republican vot-
ers were for the purpose Of urging
those who were notified to appear be-
fore the county judge IN regard &c
having their names stricken. to be on

Misrepresentation of the other fellows,

what the Republicans are pledged to

may be no better than the citizens on

to give the people . good government,
ana their promise to do it is just rs
good as that of any other man or set
of men. This ought to be sufficient.
There is no excuse for any Republican
voting for the Democratic ticket. The

SUPPORT THE BONDS.

Paducah should have many blocks
of modern streets. 1t is the way to
build up city, and every citizen who
is in favor of better and more substan-
tial streets should not forget to vote
Tuesday for the bond issue. Memphis,
Tenn, has many fine streets, but this
year will complete nine miles as the
present years record. Nine miles
make over 100 blocks. or twenty times
as many blocks in Memphis in one
year as Paducah has built since the
town was laid off half century ago.
Paducah can we'll afford to issue the
bonds and build $4,000 worth OF
streets. IL would be one OF the best
things ever done towards building NJ
the city.
