STRANGE HE GOT ANY
Marion County Seems to Have Had
a Queer Primary.


The more the returns on the Judge
ship nomination are studied the
stranger II appears that Judge Moore
was able to get any votes counted for
him. Here is what the Florence
Bulletin says: N s... II s,+
Between the time that the returns
were taken 10 Marion from thevarlous
precincts and the converting OF the
board Of canvassers the returns from
eleven precincts in Marion county
were opened. Henry Woolbeatef'
Marion county's popu ar county clerk
says he opened part Of them and that
other fellows opened the balance.
They were in his care and keeping.
The board OF canvassers did their
work but had to mark the returns
from eleven precincts as having been
opened before they assembled. The
law requires that the returns be
opened after the board Of canvassers
convene. This matter should be in
vestigated and the laws complied
with or punishment meted out"
In addition to this Gov. Hoch's
paper points with pride to the fact
that ''many a Democrat" called for a
Republican bellot so he could vote for
King for judge.
But even with 200 ballots illegally

 WHAT
 OLIVE OIL
 and why. OLIVE OIL Dealers, when Op pinned down to the last
 ditch of argum nt against our low price for Italian Olive Oil, generally harp on their Own" Special Brand bought lyatsecond or third hand) Jas the one article ill which we cannot equal their quality at our price. q That argument holds good Just so long as our Volonta Oil remains uh,ried-a and no onger.
 Volonta Oil comes in tins holding actual full measure. This fact in itself, price aside, means for the purchaser 25% more Oil for the money than if boughtin the regular trade glass bottles and, as for the quality, it couldn't, under the present Food Laws, be i'm ported into this country at all were it anything but pure Oil made from olives.
