AN HONOR TO HIS RACE
n. c. Smith DSISaatS to Ohio Con-
stitutionaI Convention.

Over 1000 signatures OF voters
have been secured indersing the
candidacy Of the Hon. Harry G.
Smith Of Cleveland, o., as dele
gate to the state constitutional
convention to be held in 1912
Realizing the necessity Of having
a member OF the race in such an
important convention, about If
ty Of the colored voters Of Cleve-
land volunteered to secure the
proper number Of signatures to
nominate Mr.. Smith for the po-
sition.
They had but q short time IA
which TO accomplish the task,
but they went about II with q
determination to succeed The
signatures were secured from
among both colored and white
citizens. In speaking Of the phe-
nomenal success Of this volun-
tary movement to nominate Mr..
Smith one Of the canvassers for
signatures said: I'VE did not
even have to ask or urge the men
to do the work. As n matter Of
fact, we who were at the head
. OF the movement did not think
the necessary signatures could
be got IN so short a time The
result was an agreeable surprise,
which seldom falls TO the lot Of
an individual without some ef-
fort on his pHrt."
DisfranchiSSment has grown
in the south until nearly every
state In that section Of the
country has disfranchised its
Afro-American voters. The race
needs an able and experienced
statesman Of fits own, such as
we find In the Hon. Harry Q.
Smith, to champion its cause.
We are taking time by the fore
lock. Color prejudice should not
have any influence with those
who make the laws by which
all citizens Of the United States
are to be governed Mr. Smith
has served three terms a. q
member Of the Ohio legislature.

The
Safest


Well put a Winona Box
against any wagon box we
ever saw, or heard of. They
are not only handsome in
appearance, but are better
made, better ironed, better
braced and better finished
than any box we know of.
Only good stock is used in
a Winona Box. The fifth
cleat under the front of the
box and the double bottom
over the hind axle are i'm
portant features. An extra
brace on the hind cleat pre-
vents the box from spread
ing at the back.
Then Winona Box is thor
oughly painted-painted to
withstand the moisture in
the air. You have surely no
ticed how well they hold
their finish.
We carry the regular box
and the IL, IA and Is foot
racks. They are certainly
the masterpiece of box
building.

If the pole on your wagon
is built right-strong- de-
pendable-you may feel Sc
cure under the most trying
conditions.
A Winona Pole is made of
air dried, thoroughly season
ed wood. An IA strip of
steel riveted to the bottom
reinforces it the full length.
The cap is six inches long
er on the top than any other
made, preventing the horses
from nibbling and weaken
ing the pole. just in front
of the hold back is a safety
device which will prevent
the pole from dropping out
of the neckyoke ring. Two
clips give additional strength
where the hounds fasten.
In short-the Winona is

BENT AND DOUBLE RivErRI
| FELIOES

No wagon is stronger than
it's wheel. No matter how
good wood in the gear-or
how well you iron it, if the
wheel won't stand your
wagon is no good to you.
The Winona has the strong
est wheel made. The rim
is made of but two pieces
bent into shape when
green. This makes the grain
follow the bend of the wheel
all the way round, making
it much stronger than a
short, sawed felloe could
possibly be. Further-riv-
cts are placed on either side
of every spoke, so that the
rim won't split.
It's the strongest felloe
made.

In this country a STRONG
BRAKE is a necessity. Win
ona Brakes are made extra
heavy and very strong, just
where the greatest strain is
put ON them. This is done
by "upsetting" or thicken-
ing the parts while they are
red hot and then welding
them into one solid piece.
In all the time we have sold
Winona Wagons we have
never known one of their
brakes to go wrong never
heard of one that did not
give the service it was call
ed on for.
You can depend on this
brake.
