On Friday night they underwent in
spsc,ion at the hands of Capt. w. n.
Hughes, U. S. Army, and Capt. Rich
ard -McCracken, of Frankfort. They
were pronounced a crack company
On account, of the hot weather the
drill was gone through with on Main
anu Center streets, beneath The eiec-
trio lights. The boys made a very
imposing appearance as they marched
coilnter-marched and went through th'
various evolutions of the drill. Har,-
ford is proud of her soldier boys,
and the willingness and activeness OF
the company may be judged by The
fact that out of full membership OF
| 81 there were A eager and ready "a
go. N is hardly probable that they
will see any active service, only as
guards and on patrol duty.
Quite a crowd of relatives and
friends of the boys was ON the streets
Sunday morning to see them off. Thei
stay will be indefinite and there is
no certainty when they will return

Gives Republicans Entire Credit.


To the Editor Of The, Times: Let
ms hear little from the other side
of the question. Forty-eight years
ago The Republicans first took con.
troll of this government With the
exception Of eight years i'm which
the Democrats had control, they have
run this, government ever since, and
is there "A voter in this land who
wants four or eight years more OF
Democratic rule. II was the worst
time this country ever saw.
One could get all the common labor
they wanted for so or 10 cents a day.
and the farmer did not know what
to raise TO get a little money to help
pay the interest on his mortgage.
When the Republicans took control
this country was one OF the most In
significant countries in the world as
far as riches and power were con-
cerned. but what is il today under
Republican rule? II is the most pow
erful and influential and intelligent
and wealthy nation In the world. Now
why does any sane person want a
change?
DO they expect the Democrats are
going TO better things? II would not
be- in accord with their nature. All
they are after is the pie They put
me in mind OF the boy. when his
mother said johnny. don't lick the
platter quite so clean" replied: by
gosh. mother. il has been SO long
since | have had even smell OF pie
that what little | do get tastes mighty

A WASTED
OPPORTUNITY

''Ole Bill'' Foote and "Ole Bill" Eng
lish were political travelling compan-
ions, and many stories were told Of
their joint journeying.
The two hardy Democratic campaign
ers were doing southern California one
election time and got into the country
at the back door of Los Angeles. One
night they reached a farmhouse where
they had expected to find lodgings
The farmer had nothing but two arm
chairs. Foote and English pleaded for
5eds-cots, trundle beds. anything that
looked like bed. Nothing doing.
The campaigners. like Napoleon or
Grant or like Washington at Valley
Forge. slept in their chairs.
When the first advance agents of
dawn scudded out of the west, the poll
ticians laboriously got out of their
chairs and went out for fresh air. They
