Man--Hat--non.

On a very windy day a man is walk
ing along the street with his dog. An
extra fierce gust Of wind takes off the
MANS hat and sends II rolling and
skipping
"Heyl Royerl" shouts the man to
the dog and the dog bounds after the
hat.
A fine, intelligent animal that; in re-
trieFing the hat he saved his owner a
lot Of work and trouble. you think; but
wait a bit.
Now that Rover has got the hat a
playful streak strikes him and before
he brings It back he rolls the hat
around on the sidewalk where he has
nailed It and gets It pretty dusty and
he winds up by slamming a big dent
IN the crown.
Nice dog, intelligent, very, but the
man thinks he'll recover his hat him
self hereafter-New York Sun.

Mr.. Free Press, why don't you
publish the amount that was

Court House and Jail Bonds? Do
this, please, and try to BE FAIR
for once, even if you have to do it
after election. For fear that you

to secure the information from

Governor Wilson in his message
to the people speaks of the diff.
Guilty of capturing the senate, the
last citadel of republican power in

democrats to capture it with their

peal of our great leader and assist

voting for Key Pittman tomorrow ?
If you do not, you miss a golden
OPT ortunity to assist in the re.tora-
ton of the government to the

The attention of the voters could
not have been called to the glazing
mistakes of Fred c. Voight in his
election proclamation any sooner
than it was. THIS proclamation
was published only eleven days
before the article, LAYING bare
his many official plumbers, ap-
peared. Do not be misled by the
cry of stop thief" The guilty
culprit is usually the one who joins
the crowd and makes the greatest
noise. Do not he deceived in this
matter. The article exposing his
official record was published az
soon as possible after IT was called
for by the ridiculous praises Of the
p1sers supporting him concerning
his wonderful official efficiency.
A few DAYS ago the Free Press
jammed Commissioner Willis on the
deputy health officer proposition.
When we were fighting those

officers, when we rediculed It's re-
port. 1t now tries to make the only

Every democrat, whose hands

Wilson'S message before casting
