TO REPUBLICANS:

We are anxious to have every
Republican in close touch, and work
ing in harmony with the Republican
National Congressional Committee in
favor of the election of Republican
Congress.
The Congressional campaign must
be based on the administrative and
legislative record of the party, and,
that being so, Theodore Roosevelt's
personality must be a central figure
and his achievements a central
thought in the campaign.
We desire to maintain the work of
this campaign with popular subscrip-
tions of One Dollar each from Repub-
licans. To each subscriber we will
send the Republican National Cam
paign Text Book and all documents
issued by the Committee.
Help us achieve great victory.

not agree and the Whitman Warblers
this morning decided to take the
chances of a deficit and appear before
the public in good shape.
This is the first time in four years
the collegians have, attempted to un-
dertake an expensive method of giving
their annual entertainment, but the
fact the club is so much larger and
better decided them in the matter.
Sixteen men comprise the regular
chorus, and, besides this, there are
quartets, triOs, duets, solos. also special
features such as cOrnet numbers, club
swinging acts. and many other new
ami novel stunts.
The club leaves tomorrow for tour
north to Spokane, Ritzville, COlfax.
Pullman and other towns in northern
Washington, returning to Walla Wal

make the best of it's kind ever seen
