The Standard Oil Company is kin

casions when Bayonne was kim TO
Standard Oil. This time Bayonne is
the recipient. Not only will the COM
pany pay half the cost of ditching the
meadows in the Hook section of Bay
onne to destroy the breeding places
for mosquitoes. but it will also furnish
all the oil needed free Of cost. 1t is

Rome's celebration of its 2.66Sd birth
day Yesterday makes us realize what
an oldish ny Rome is. Compared in
antiquity with some of the cities the
archaeologists are turning up from the
soil in Egypt and Asia, Rome is quite
a yeungster, but the wonder is her
preservation. Carthage was one Of
Eome's contemporaries. and We'd with
her in %splendor, but today even the
site of Carthage is in dispute.

advertise the fact that he was, or
claimed, to be honest.
Second. That we regard the above
quoted article as Slanderous and cal
culated to mislead and deceive voters
who are not acquainted with Mr.. Rea.
Third. That from our acquant-
ance with Mr.. Rea as a man and
lawyer, we know that if he is elected
to the Office to which he aspires that
no graft, misgovernment or unlawful
ness will be countenanced by him.
Fourth. That graft, misgovern-
ment and unlawfulness will not have
attained any victory by the defeat of
Judge Ruppenthal.
Fifth. That it is not necessary for
Mr.. Rea to advertise himself as being
honest because his record has estab-
lished that he is honest, to the salts
faction of those who know him.
Sixth. We submit to the voters of
this district that the publication of
the article quoted from the Oakley
Graphic, is unwarranted and unfair,
and more especially so when it comes
from the pen of a man occupying the
position of judge of this district.
Seventh. We endorse the candidacy
of E. A. Rea for judge of the 23rd
Judicial District because he is ex-
ceptionally well qualified to fill the
position to the satisfaction of the
people, and because we know him to
be fully as honest as Judge Ruppen-
thai advertises himself to be.

Inasmuch as Judge Ruppenthal has
during the present campaign inserted
in various newspapers of the district,
advertisements written and paid for
by himself to the effect that he is "a
strictly honest and impartial judge"
and has attempted to make capital by
calling attention of the voters of the
district to his claim of honesty; and
fnasmuch as he has written and had
inserted in the ''The Oakley Graphic"
in its issue of October 21St, 1910, the
follwing advertisement:
''It would be a great victory for the
forces of misgovernment, graft and
unlawfulness, if they could say after
election: we beat JudgeRuppenthal
and we notice that we will beat every
other judge and other official who
does his duty Which side are you
on, Mr.. Voter? Adv
And inaSmuch as such advertiS-
ment and statement of Judge Rup-
penthal's by inuendo draws the con-
cIusion that E. A. Rea, the Republi-
can candidate for judge, is an advo-
cate of and stands for misgovernment,
graft, and unlawfulnesS, and that
graft, misgovernment and unlawful
ness, would flourish in the district if
Mr.. Rea is elected, we, who have
known Mr.. Rea for years as an honest.
decent, respectable and able citizen,
man and lawyer, wish to say to the
voters of the district:

essary for an honest man to himself

Judge Arthur Artman has served
Lincoln county eight years as Pro
bate Judge and is a candidate for the
fifth term, without opposition. A.
Sidney Chase has held the same posi-
tion in Ellsworth county nine terms
in succession and is candidate for
reelection, without opposition.
Trego county may profit by the
good example of her neighbors by
voting to retain A. S. Peacock in the
office of Probate Judge. He deserves
the compliment of another term be-
cause he has proven his fitness and
ability by industry and attention to
the work of the office. For these
reasons and because of his experience
he is better qualified than any be-
ginner could be. Vote for him and

Says Young Will Win

Senator. J. L. BriStow came back
home Sunday for few hours rest be-
fore starting out in the campaign
again. Last week he spoke with Sen
ator 1. D. Young in four counties of
the Sixth district, and this week has
several more dates in that district.
Senator Young will certainly be
elected congressman, said Senator
Bristow Monday in speaking of con-
ditfons in the Sixth. '1It is merely a
question of getting the people out to
vote.
Il believe that Senator 1oung's s
vote will run very close to that of
Governor Stubhs, as close to Stubbs.
perhaps. as that of any congressional
canidate.
Everything indicates that Governor
Stubs is stronger than ever, in the
Sixth district as well as elsewhere.
There are a great many democrats
going to come over and vote for
Stubbs. and also for Senator Young
for congress, because they believe he
will be clean. able. and progressive
representative in congress. Senator
Young is making a good, clean-cut,
straightforward talk to the voters,
and it is making fine impression.
We have been having excellent meet
ings.
s'Governor Stubbs is going to get an
| immense vote in Kansas this year.
The people are with him. .''-Salina
