Two Elderly, Voters

Saratoga Has two oldgentleman
that voted a good many years at
the presidential election before
Taft, Teddy or Wilson were ever
thought of as even possible candi2
dates. j. M Sterret one of the
of the men voted his first time id
1S4S for Taylor who was elected
at the time. He has voted contina
ually ever since except the first
time Cleveland ran. He was
on hand Tuesday and cast another
vote and from the looks of him at
this time We would not be- sur.
prised to BEE him vote at one or
two more presidential elections,
altho he is SO years of age. j. w.
Moore is the other and cast his
first vote for Pierce in 1852.
Pierce was elected and we have q
happy thought that possibably
Mr.. Moore voted this time for the
winning candidate.

SARATOGA REPUBLICAN,
Swings into line with a neat Majority
1ondell ahead Of the ticket here and
Warren is to the Good

Election in Saratoga was very
quiet and orderly with very few
people working other than to get
out the vote. The vote was nearly
all gotten out about $50 ballots
were cast. The Legislative ticket
carried by about Is majority
which showed that Warren hadn't
lost all of the votes through the
combined efforts .of the Bull
Moosers and the Democrats. The
same held good with Mondell
it saveithe endorsement of.
-sonal feeling as,was shown insthe
Legislative ticket when, personal
prejudiceruledtsome of the people
who would have voted for Warren
direct but would not vote for
some of the Legislative nominees.
Mondell ran ahead of the ticket
here and resolved the highest
majority which vas AZ. The
National ticket carried for Taft by
an average of 8 in spite of the
two opposing candidates with an
appearance of Roosevelt being
the favorite before election.
'hMr. Phelps the nominee for
County Attorney received LOG aud

and r. A. Day was behind Nc

exceptions the Republicans did
better here than it was conceded
by the committee.
Saratoga for the past four years
has been going a little majority

Justice of the Peace, Blood was
reelected and Snyder was reelected

that lodge did it's self proud
as it always does in public events.
The hall was nicely decorated and
presented a pleasing appearance.
The music was splendid and
furnished by E. M. Green j. c.
Burnett and Mrs. Frank Scribner.
The committee appointed by the
lodge to take hold of the matter
were VIM. Miser E. M. Green and
j. b. Eager and those men did all
that could be expected to make
the affair a successful and pleas
Ing event, which while not a
financial success, was not intend
ed to be, but enough money was
taken in toinsure the payment of
all expenses.
The supper was prepared and
served blythe Rebekah lodge and
was considered as good a table
as ever spread in the hall.
Mrs.. Frank White at the head OF
the supper committee naturally
insured it's success. 1t was a
bountifnlf feast and a very moder-
ate fee was charged considering the

on such occasion. "a The ladies

All reports show that Wilson is elected president and will prob

ORDINANCES
 ADOPTED

Two ordinances were adopted at the meeting of the city council held on Friday night, one of them giv- Ing wider scope to the police de partment in the case of "undesir- ables, and the other reducing the pay of election officers from s15 tc $1O per day. aCllahan opposed both measures, and he was joined in his opposition to the undesirable" ordinance, the mayor stating it as his belief that it was brought up at this time for political reasons. Councilman Driscoll, Heacock, Nor dale and Peoples voted in favor of the ordinance
 c. D. McCauley was elected to the position of election judge.
 Councilman Driscoll moved that two special policemen be engaged for the purpose of preserving order at the polls, and this action was taken in face of the vigorous ob- jection of Callahan.
 After attending to the various mat ters the council adjourned.

VOTE STRAIGHT.

That the issues in tomorrow's electicn are clearly defined is well known to the majority of the vot- CTS of the city. the fence-straddling declarations of half-afraid suppor'- CTS of the Peoples ticket to the contrary notwithstanding. The Cit iZens' ticket stands for decency ard a continuation of the policy of the retiring council, neither of which is promised, even in the most vague terms, by the Callahan-Thomp- son ticket.
 This being the case the occasion has arisen when the voter, if ile wishes to make his vote count ac- cording to his intention, must line up with che ticket or the other and vote it straight. Splitting the ticket, while logical in some cases where the issues are not clearly de, fined, is inexcusable in this case where it is the policy that is to be pursued by the incoming council that is of chief consequence.
 If you want clean and honest city government vote for the Citi Zens' ticket and vote it straight Don't half do the job. Do it we'll

shades. but growing ever more rad ical. and drifting all the time in the direction of Socialism Whether 1 this mass is at first clustered around a Roosevelt or LaFollette. makes not the slightest difference in the long run. though curiously enough these questions of the lead ership of this CT that individual are as yet regarded as the real pol itics" of the situation. This raw.
 Immature and inChoate mass of rad i icalism is naturally as yet domin- ated by individualistic conceptions. and for this reason the political leader assumes an apparent position ct importance at first. that he grad l uaIiy loses as the radicalism be comes more clear and definite in its objects. As it more and more ap- breaches Socialism. the importance of the individual declines, just as in the Socialistic party today. the SC lection of presidential candidate is matter of very much less inn poTance to the Socialist masses.
 than is the selection of a Republ- can or Democratic presidential can didate to the managers of those par ties.
 It is one of the ironies of the po- iitical situation. that Roosevelt. the
 man who of all his tribe most vici
 ously attacked Socialism in the past.
 should now be preparing it's path and
 making it's way smooth by marshal ing the hosts of the yet aimless and vague discontent of the country un- der his political leadership. In all probability it will not be long now
 until We hear the cry of Socialism"
 raised against Theodore. and his vigorous retort that if they please to call his policies Socialism, they
 can make the most of il. The most
 encouraging feature about the live
 and energetic radical is that there
 is no stopping place for him. If
 he halts he is lost, and another
 takes his place, just as the timidity
 and vacillation of Bryan has rele-
 gated him to political oblivion. But for Socialists there is nothing to
 fear in this new political alignment While pushing their own .propagan-
 da they can have the satisfaction of
 watching Roosevelt for the time be-
 ing, preparing the elements that will
 inevitably go to strengthen the So-
 cialistic party in the future. just

THE CITIZENS TICKET.
A CLEAN ELECTION,

That adequate steps for the pro lection of the ballot tomorrow have been taken by the city officials is in keeping with the good record for business judgment displayed by the retiring c.Wucil during their year of office. and gives reasonable assur- ancc that there will be no illegal voting The fact that Councilman Callahan vigorously opposed the hir- ing of special officers for duty at the polls indicates. even to those who were not already aware of the fact. that he would be better pleased il there were absolutely no voting restrictions whatsoever imposed
 Those who care. or have the slightest interest in the welfare of the city. believe the votes to be cast tomorrow should be as carefully scrutini2ed as those cast at any ,lecti.n for the president of the United States. The man who does uor value his franchise at it's tru. worth can under no consideration be classed as good citizen. for he fails to bear his share of the bur den that is imposed on him by our system of popular government. Such pers is little interested whether or not illegal votes are cast, and he has little reason 10 be. But the man who takes an intelligent inter est in the government of his town. state or country. looks upon his bal lot as something of value acquired by birth. or adoption of country, and he insists with all the might al his disposal that he be allowed to vote when he is properly entitled so to do He is also equally insistent that his vote shall not be nullified by someone casting an illegal bal It who has been hired or persuaded for the purpose.
 The candidates on the Citizens ticket have offered a reward of $50 for information that will lead to the conviction of any person who votes illegally. and there is no doubt that this will have a salutary effect on any who have unlawfully registered. IL is a matter of comment that, al though such steps are frequently taken at elections here, the candi- dates on the Peoples ticket have not also made a similar move But there still is time for them to do so, and they need not be a little Dir afraid that there will be no one on hand 10 watch the voting with the idea of collecting the reward.
 The candidates on the Citizens ticket do not want one single vote that is not entirely legal, neither do they wish to interpose objection against any legal voter who desires to favor the Peoples ticket But they do insist that no illegal votes shall be cast for either side. and they are taking all steps in their power to accomplish this result
