VOTE IT STRAIGHT.

Republicans, is it your desire
ever to have your party win a
victory in Benton countv, or is it
your will that the little ring OF
Democratic bosses shall be per
petuated indefinitely? You have
supported and encouraged the
Trio-who regard the election OF
every candidate on the Demo
cratic ticket as victory for them
selves-until they feel that you
are their property. They have
grown so bold and arrogant, that
to give one of them affront means
an attack by their organ, the
Times, or a personal assault.
They jeer and laugh at you after
every election, and taunt you be-
cause the Republican candidate
you voted against was defeated,
and, yet, when two years roll
around again, they ask you to
forgive and forget.

THE PLATFORM.

Resolved, That we favor the permanent
betterment of every highway in Benton
county, without regard to the political COM
plexlon of the section to which it leads
or through which it passes.
Resolved, That We favor the liberal but
Intelligent exenditure of public money for
road improvement, under competent super
vision, and limited to the employment OF
such methods as will provide good roads
without imposing unnecessary burden on
the taxpayers.
Resolved, Th,t we favor an administra-
tion of county affairs which will render un-
necessary gradual increase Of the taxpay-
ers' burden from year to year at time
when the county is free from debt, and there
is no demand for heavy expenditure OF
county funds.
Resolved, That we favor al equal and
uniform system of taxation as prescribed by
the constitution and laws of this state, and
condemn in most severe terms pollcy
which discrlminates in favor of one indl-
vidual and against another,
Resolved, That we favor the strict atten-
tion of every county officer to his duties pre-
scribed for him by law, and the faithful
observance of the obligations imposed by
his oath of office. Adopted by the Benton
county Republican convention, March 81
1904.

| Do You propose 10 be "doae'
this election, or are you going t
join hands with the honest, sell
respecting Democrats who are re.
solved to break the strangle hole

Mr.. Republican voter, YOU may

the nomination. What hope can
you or he have of being elected,
If one or both of you help to de-

The ticket nominated by the

Like rat in trap, the Busi.
ness Democrat squeals at each
thrust that is given him, ano
sticks his nose into a new crevice,
hoping to find one that will prove
a loop-hole of escape. His alb.
normal appetite tor political
crumbs has led him into the trap,
and he himself has closed the
door behind him: He is walled
in by old copies of the Times,
and every crevice is stuffed with
scurrilous editorials from that
sheet. For years. he has had his
nest in the political house of the
Republican party, and he has
waxed fat on the crumbs that
have fallen from the tables of its
members. He has grown bolder
and bolder, and has become more
and more exacting, until he in
sists on having his choice of the
viands before the members of the
Republican family are served.
He has bitten every hand that
has ted him, and now that he is
trapped, his squeals of distress
arouse no sympathy. In fact,
many members of the party upon
which he has saddled himself, re-
joice at his present discontinue.

SEEKING A SCAPEGOAT.

Of all the inane, purile twad-
die that has been printed in the
editorial columns of the Times
during the present campaign, the
worst appeared..in the circus day
edition of that paper.
The trio have certainly reached
the limit of assurance, when they
devote a half page of their organ
to an attempt to fasten upon Mr..
Jolly all the mistakes and short
comings of the present Demo
cratic managers of county affairs.
Of course, it is apparent to every
one that the trio hope to attract
attention from themselves to Mr..
Jolly. They try to disguise the
fact that they are attacking that
gentleman, by masking their bat
teries with boquets.
We indorse all the nice things
they have to say about Mr.. jolly,
but protest, most emphatically,
against their effort to make him
a scapegoat.
Reference to issues of the
Times, published in the cam
paign of 1890 and 1892, when
Mr.. Jolly was Republican candi-
date for sheriff, will convince that
pentleman's friends of the dupli-
city that is being practiced by the
Willy Sachem and his lieutenants,
Twelve or fourteen years ago the
Times was unable to discover a
good quality or an admirable trait
in Mr.. Jolly; now, it finds him
an ideal citizen and competent
official.
