Before the political boiling kettle
of the November election has had
hardly time to sufficiently cool. we
notice in Fridays issue of The Citi-
zen some unknown Hawleyite is try
ing to push ex-Sheriff Braman head
long into the State Legislature, which

admit that Mr.. Braman, as one of the

know, perform the duties of his of
fee honestly and to the entire salts
faction to the people, but how about
locations? Hawley is not represented
by a single elective officer. For the

has had its Fuerth and Damascus
now has its Jackson. Hawley has
some faithful Republicans who has
labored zealously for the success O.
the party ticket, with some business
men and retiring merchants any o
