\ WINNING TICKET PLACED
In THE FIELD BY THE RE-
PUBLICAN PARTY

last ANOllutly NllS9OW Wa
the scene of one of the most no
table political gatherings eve
seen in that we'll known town
where many good politician
has either met his Waterloo OF
glory. The occasion was the
county convention of the repub
licans of Valley county, who fol
the first time in some years, left
heir hatchets at home and gath
cred in convention where the
dove OF peace was very conspic
uous by it's presence. Every
precinct within the county was
well represented, and if reports
are true that these gentlemen
circulated at the meeting, there
is nothing to it but the shouting.
That Old story Of political job
berry within the ranks OF the re
publican party Of Valley county
is deceased and q thing of the
past. The party leaders are
awake to the fact that to sue.
cessfully win the glorious battle
with votes on November 3rd is
by concentrating and ANAL gam
ating the forces of the entire
party of the county. Every
good republican of the county
should assist the county central
committee in every manner pos
sible, and in no better way can
the republican voters assist the
managers than by working and
voting for every man on the re-
publican ticket. Let every pre-
cinct Join hands in a sort Of a
ring around a rosy" and work
for one OF the most successful
republican campaigns ever
known in the history of Valley
connty, that We may show our H.
lustrious president, and friend
of the west, Theodore Roose-
welt, that we appreciate the
work and assistance he has Civ
en- this valley by emphatically
endorsing his policy at the polls
on November 3rd.
1t is up to the candidates
to conduct a clean aggressive
campaign. regardless OF any
methods that might be used by
our friends. the enemy. as in
county affairs it is always the
honest, energetic and business
like candidate that wins out.
True that political lobbcry in
this county. like in all other
counties Of the state, in the past
was an important factor, but it
is our honest belief that this
despicable game will 'be elimin-
ated in this campaign by the re-
publicans. The grave question
of electing a president for these
grand United States Will cause |
every patriotic lover of freedom
and prosperity to vote the repub'
lican ticket straight. as that |
party has for these many years
successfully the great
ship Of state. regardless OF

md but few voters are overly
anxious to return to democratic
rule and free trade.
Enthusiasm was constantly in
evidence during the entire meet
ng and the name Of William
Howard Taft and James School.

Synonymous expression OF on
husiasm and applause. Speeches

The convention was called to
