Things politically have been pretty
quiet here as yet. The primaries
are only a month off. They are
especially important this year as this
is the first time the people of this
state have had cnance to vote direct
ly for 9. S. Senator and we also elect
a Congressman to represent this district
at Washington as we'll as county
and legislative officers. Every voter
should post himself on the candidates
and everyone plan to attend the
primary. The politicians will all be
there and the people should too if
they want to rule. 81

poor year for the political kicker.

question that is rapidly forcing itself
into national prominence. While
these men hardly expect to be elected
and it is doubtful if any real good
would be accomplished ii they were
elected, still the campaign Of educa-
ton goes on, and who knows. some
time things may be different.
