share in this great work. On Saturday

organized the Roosevelt Taft Kittredge

Adjournment was taken to Wednesday
evening at the court house when a COM
plete organization was effected by the
election of the following officers: David
Villa ans, president: ID. @ Kidder, 1st
vice president; b. A. Walton, secretary
and l.. l.. Butler, treasurer. A vice
president was elected for each voting
precinct in Day county,, Stirring
addresses were made by President Will
liams, Frank Sears and others. Thir-
teen delegates were selected to attend
the meeting of Roosevelt Taft and Kilt
redge clubs to be held at Mitchell on
January 20 The organization starts
off with charter membership of 81
and from the favorable responses being
received from all over the county, il is
safe to predict total membership run
ming well up in the hundreds In fact
the republicans of Day county are
almost unanimous for Taft for presi-
dent. He Is the man of the hour, fully
in sympathy with the Roosevelt poll
cies and the personal choice of the
president If you have not yet signed
