Rev. George Steel has returned
from Flat River, where he has
been holding a meeting, and he
and Mrs. Steel are now stopping
at the Sanitarium. Mr.. Steel says
that any one who is not an advo-
cate of granitoid walks, should go
to some place like Flat River,
where walks are few and far be-
tween, on q rainy day. That, he
says, will sure make a convert of
him.
The Republican candidates for
Office in Iron county have refused
to enter into the agreement pro-
posed to them by the Democrats
not to use Doodle or booze in the
present campaign. Their action
is not at, all surprising to us. Il
shows plainly and Enthusiastically
the methods on which the "God
and morality" party rely to win,
So when you hear of booze and
Doodle in this fight you may know
the Republicans put it there.

Gently presiding elder Of the Pop
