speeches, and now after hearing

speeches, and now after hearing
him, speak, he knew he did" .
Mr.. Hubbard failed to tell how
corporations are taxed. He had
aught to say about banks giving
up their books so the assessor
could list all who have money in
the bank. He keeps this part OF
the laws quiet. He otld about
poor men having to pay their
head tax in April and instanter
but tried to laugh it off by re-
lating what he claimed was part
of a speech made by our next
Governor, Cornwell. But in do
ing this, he told one important
fact; namely, that John j: Corn
well, the Democratic nominee for
Governor, as a member of the last
Senate, did oppose this head tax
law. He clearly admitted that
much in Cornwell's favor, but it
was WIDELY unintentional on his
part.
Mr.. Hubbard made as good a
speech as anybody can under
the new tax laws on his side.
Come out tonight and listen to
John A. Howard talk CT the tax
laws. He will read the law. He
will not make fun of anybody,
and will cheerfully answer any
question anybody may ask IN
good faith or otherwise. Bust
ness men, property owners, every
man and woman who pays taxes
is vitality interested in this new
tax law should attend the speak
ing tonight and get all the infor-
nation possible.
After hearing Mr.. Howard, If
you think it is to your interest
to keep these laws in force then
vote for Dawson, for Smith,
Parks and Hill; if not, then vote
for Cornwell, Ash, Twyman and
Thorn, who will repeal this tax
law when the Legislature meets,
as it will, January next.

Orr friend. O. W. O. Hardman

Our friend, O. W. O. Hardman,
closed the campaign at Middle
bourne Saturday night in a long,
loud, bowling speech. He devot-
ed most of his time, so we are in
formed, to the Oil Review and
journal. Glad he did so. We
would feel very badly, indeed, II
at the end of any campaign, we
would have the approval OF Hard
man. We don't trot in his class,
we never did nor do we ever ex.
pect to. He is the gentleman who
indicted the teamsters for haul
ing on Sunday. He is the man
who was foreman of the grand
Jury that found sixteen hundred
indictments at one term of court,
for "revenue only" He is the
man who is. now urging Repub-
licans to vote for Shriver and not
be boilers; but he himself bolted
the nomination of R. L. Gregory
two years ago and Dovenor fol-
Congress some years since. It's
rule or ruin with Hardman. We
are glad he does not like the Oil
Review. We are glad he does
not belong to the Oil Review s
ticket. We are pleased he is fol-
Shriver and against Reppard and
Kirchner, and so are these gen
tlemen. Oliver has many gooo
traits of character that we have
always admired, but he has some
others we don't admire. We are
much obliged to him for adver
Using the Oil Review so Otter
and in so many places in this

of his nasty remarks because

very badly. We never like tc
