vote and influence I will do my
utmost to secure better road laws.
laws more adapted to the needs Of
our island people. pledge my
opposition to all efforts to increase
the burden of taxation by extravagant
or unmise expenditures of public
moneys.
Recognizing the fact that an over
whelming majority of the people of
this state and of my own county
have declared in favor of Wesley L.
Jones as the choice of the whole
p ople for United States senator. l
would. If elected. feel in duty bound.
as the peoples choice. to give him
support in securing his election to
such position. and would support
him and use my influence in securing
his election to the senate.
l pledge myself to use every honor
able endeavor to secure the repeal of
that portion of the revenue law of
this state which permits bankers and
money sharks to demand and purchase
delinquent tax certificates. thus de-
priving the county of the accrulng
interest. and adding an additional
burden to the taxpayers by the i'm
position of fees and the compromising
of accrued interest.
I pledge myself to promote and
protect the fishing industry, in which
this county is vitality interested.

an act repeating the so called 'corrob.
orative evidence law" one of the most
vicious acts ever directed at woman
hood. and I will use every endeavor
to secure the repeal of that law.
Recognizing the fact that San Juan
county possesses one of the grandest

people who generally suffer with most

smell the fresh air all night when it

there is no danger of your catching cold,

Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs,
crusaders and Turks left it Palestine
still, still Asiatic with customs which
go back of written history, remaining
fixed through centuries of change. With
the opening of the first railroad the in

ancient life showed itself in making it
part of the contract with managers of
specially conducted tours who guaran-
tee the comforts Of civilization to their
touring parties. Naturally, the modern
ism thus brought to bear was expected
to put the ancient life of Palestine to
the test, but there was a possibility that
the immortality of Asia would sustain
itself in spite of this continually grow
ing pressure.
