Those who framed the original pro-

the BEST MAN
ommunication)

Which is the best man to elect to the
office OF which he is an aspirant? is a
question that is easily answered at this
time. The best man is the one whose
political affiliations, are with the party
under whose policies conditions have
been created that have inaae possible
the prosperity of this country that we
now enjoy. This is the man who is en-.
titled to our suffrage whether he is
aspiring to be governor or constable.
His opponent is put forward by the
party that tried to govern from 1892 to
1895. With a result many of us have
cause 10 remember. Those who claim
TO be republicans when soliciting votes
from republicans and democrats when
asking favors from democrats, ARE not en-.
titled 70 the confidence OF either party
and should not be entrusted with Office
of any kind.
