Election day will be one week
from next Tuesday. The Republi.
can is trying to put none but re.
publicans on guard" They want
to slip in, slide in, or count in.
Put none but republicans on
guard" What does that mean!
Beat 'em fair or foul! This is
the we'll known policy of the fake
reformer who this year publishes
two tax lists instead of one at the
tax payers expense.
Valentine Democrat., 1906-10-25

The talk is: If you want to
support Roosevelt and his policy
elect republican legislators and
congressman. All the legislative
candidates talk it. Kinkaid talks
it. But nothing could be farther
from the truth. The republicans
did not support Roosevelt's policy.
They fought it on the sly and on
the open. He had republican
senate dead against him last win
ter. All of his reforms we're
hampered, doctored, amended un-
til Mr.. Roosevelt must have felt
ashamed of his own measures.
The politicians are using Roose-
velt's name for vote gathering. If
the people want the Roosevelt re-
forms, they must elect a demo
cratic legislature and democratic
congressman. Then they will get
it straight and unhampered. What
the leaders want is power, and
they will 60 any lengths of pre-
tended reform to get it. But once
in Office, goodbye Roosevelt, who,
great as he is, will be only a small
force in the hands of the manipu-
lators of the trusts and political
combines. Stuart Ledger.

Prof. r. II. Watson.

r. II. Watson, fusion candidate
for state superintendent, has been
superintendent of the Valentine
school for ten years and people of
all parties are going to vote for
him. 1t will be creditable to

The Republican wants its read
ers to believe that the worst that
can be said about it's candidate for
state representative is that he deals
in soda water, because The DEMO
crat recently compared that candi-
date with the candidate on the
democratic ticket. Of course, it's
no crime to sell soda water, and
the people will not understand that
The DEMOCRAT expected anyone
to vote against the republican
candidate because of his calling.
They will vote for Albert H.
Metzger because of his calling be-
ing in harmony with theirs. He
has endured the hardships and pri-
vations that the great number of
people have undergone because of
sending the wrong men to the
legislature to represent them. The
results of evil practices such as
sending a man who is not in &C
cord with the people and out of
harmony with the men who are in
need of representation can be
easily distinguished.
We do not say that the drug
store men or soda water men do
not need representation, but they
are not in so great need of rep
resentation as the farmers, stock
men and merchants. 1t is not
difficult to distinguish the differ
ence between such interests. The
Cody Cow Boy and the Republican
each took great pains to dodge the
real issue between the two candi-
dates. They want to send some
body to the legislature to vote for
Norris Brown. That is their
principal plea, and they say they
want to brace up Roosevelt.
Doesn't every body know that the
democrats were with Roosevelt in
all the reforms that were accom-
plished and that the republicans
were so divided that had it not
been for the democratic support in
congress Roosevelt wouldn't have
been braced up. The people are
also getting tired of the flimsy ex-
cuse to vote for republicans who
will vote for Norris Brown to
brace up the administration. DO
not be deceived with the willy
tricks of smooth tongued pervert-
ers. The issue at stake is: Shall
stockmen and farmers be hood
winked into voting to support an
administration that has fayed them
on all sides, robbed them by high
freight rates on everything they
ship in or out of the country,
robbed them by tariff rates and
trust combines on what they buy
and in unjust and unequal taxation?
Vote instead for change of adj
ministration. Vote for Albert H.
Metzger and S. S. Joice. They
will better represent Cherry coun-
ty and western Nebraska and will
help elect w. H. Thompson to the
United States senate.
