Egad, What Treason" is This?

The newspapers of Fayette county
will charge five dollars for announcing
candidates for Office and will expect
payment in advance, or at least before
the McGregor News adds:
The News will go this one better.
When candidate wants write up to
tell the good people of all the things he
has done why should he not pay so
much per line? AS a usual thing can
didates call and expect you to go out
and spend your time introducing them
to the voters. If he is defeated, that
is the last you ever hear of him, but
if he is elected and you ask him for
some favor, he will probably tell you
to go to Iceland or some other cool
climate. Newspaper space is our stock
in trade, any one that desires to use
the News columns will pay our price.
We are going to work for our own
beLefit from now on and the other good
fellow will pay for what he wants
before he gets any notice in the News.
We don't propose to go begging for
what we really earn, and what we are
entitled to we will demand. We
have to pay as we go for what we
want aud the dear candidate will have
to do the same. -Waukon Democrat.

The Charles City Chautauqua is the
biggest and best thing advertised to
be held in the Cedar Valley this sum-

TO go to the coast this summer
have abandoned that. and are finding
in the Charles City Assembly most
excellent substitute. The grounds
have been leased for a number of
years, by the Commercial Club, new
500 foot permanent suspension bridge
is assured to directly connect the
city and the grounds, and plans are
making for the greatest list of splendid
attractions ever held in these
parts. The price is so low, the tentinq
facilities so superb, that thousands
will turn their steps Charles City
