Politically he has always stood

just 70 further his own ends.
By absolute misrepresentation
he managed to gain the consent
Of A. T. Cole 10 run against Mr..

placing Mr.. Cole on the ticket.
The day OF the election Gable
was elected over Cole by small

neither one got out and made

as follows;-
1--WE base our judgment on
the outcome of the election, two
weeks ago, when L. NJ. Gable
defeated A. L. Cole for alder
man because MIR. Gable was
familiar with the tastes OF his
people and provided it in abund
ance.
The New Era editor has taken
pains 10 find out about this affair
and he has interviewed ALL the
parties concerned, Mayor IN

no reason or excuse Of any kind,
shape, sort or description for
the stand taken by the Leader

mayor, that the Leader would
lose the official printing very
good reason, truly, for attack
ing a mans standing with the
citizens OF his home town.
We are indeed sorry that such
. thing should occur in our little
city-that such lies should be
given publicity. They only tend
to engender bitter animosities
such as 3 growing place like
Wagner can i'll afford. It seems
incredible to Us that such q piece

of either of them. The vote as
given them tells nothing as to
their popularity. Had positions
