in politics, owing the duty 10 God,
his country and his family. DE- Ball
said the voter should see that only
the best men are nominated for office
and elected, so that good laws can be
made and enforced.
DR.. Ball said the Republican county
ticket showed such men on it. the
best any party has placed before the
voters in years in this state.
The State ticket is absolutely safe
with Charles r. Miller for Governor, I"
said DR.. Ball, better men could not be
selected f3r the county ticket but
right here is where a danger an
pears We are going TO elect our
ticket and we want no trade. Do not
allow any candidate or party worker to
trade the state and county candidates
for votes for representative and Levy
Court.
Candidates for representative and
Levy Court are making these offers
right here in the rural districts, and
you Republicans cannot afford to
sacrifice the main offices when your
whole tickets are safe. Work for the
whole Republican ticket and do not
allow one vote to be lost in trade.
As chairman of the county COM
mittee l know these offers have been
made in this district. Mr. Shaw is
going to be elected and Mr.. Appleby's
chances are exceedingly good with
Republicans solid at his back. Vote
the whole ticket and scorn a trade
offer. Remember that Maine Repub-
licans when united won the state
ticket. Get busy men, for you owe
IT to yourselves to elect the Republi-
can ticket.
"As has been truthfully said the
Republican Levy Court has made it
possible to travel over improved
highways anC we want more good
roads, and James G. Shaw and his as
sociates are the men to build them
We want good times to continue and
never again want 10 60 back to the
conditions of '93 to go The same
prosperous conditions existing in
New Castle prevail throughout the
country. Prosperity is here Happi-
ness reigns supreme. We want no
Wilson free trade. We need the pro-
tectson which stands for prosperity.
Ice country has genuine prosperity
under Taft and protection. Why need
a changer"
Those wishing to join the mounted
-lnb will meet on Monday night.
