FARMERS VIEW OF MATTETs
Thinks No Chance Should Be Taken
to Reverse Conditions

EDITOR CENSOR: Such a tangle as
we are in politically has never before
been witnessed. Permit me to say
that we, as republicans, ought and
should stand by our party in Natio nal
affairs and send to the electoral college
Taft electors Ny candid opinion is
that the republican party has served
the people of this beloved country of
ours faithfully, and whatever progress
been made, it is to its credit Let US
look back to the time when Mckinley
took charge of the presidential office,
the conditions then, and compare them
with the conditions of today Then
the factory wheels were silent, labor
idle, unemployed men wandering all
over the country begging their daily
bread and shelter. Farm products sold
for little or nothing u oats 10 to Is cents
per bushel, eggs to 10 cents per doz
en-, good mich cows for SIS, and pretty
much everything was on that basis of
destruction. What are the conditions
today under republican administrations
and sound constitutional government?
Farm values have risen, farm products
bring good and remunerative prices,
people are contented and enjoying a
prosperity never before excelled. Why
then shall we at the behest of political
mountebanks change all this? | for
one will not, and it is my firm belief
that every reading voter will think
twice before he casts his vote at the
coming election and cast it for men of
capability statesmen who have the well
fare of all the people of these United
States at heart, and in the legislative
halls of the nation enact such laws as
will be for the good of all. Vote the
republican ticket anu we are assured
of representative constitutional gov
eminent and a continuance of the pres
ent good and prosperous times. We
have no sympathy with man who asks
us to quit our party. dictator and self
constituted candidate for the high of
fee of president-a man that has had
all the honor people can confer. No.
let us have progress, by all means let
US have it, but let it be sane and real
progress, enacted by statesmen that
are true to the people and not by fana-
teal theorists and their following.
Yours for real and substantial pro-
gress A. JOHNSON.

NEW BALLOTS FOR THIS FALL
Voters VIII Have Thr ee Separate
Ballots at Election

BY chapter $50 of the laws of 1911
there will be three separate ballots for
the general elections instead of one
large blanket sheet ballot in vogue in
this state for the last twenty-five years
Heretofore the names of all candidates
from president down to coroner as well
as referendum questions have been sub
mitted TO the people on one ballot at
the general elections. Hereafter three
separate ballots of different colors will
be in use for the first time at the pres
idential elec ion, November 9th.
The first ballot is hgh. blue known
as the presidential ballot upon which
there appears the names of the various
candidates for president and vice pres
ident, as well as presidential electors
in separate columns under the Bppro-
pirate party designation. For the
parties in existence at the last general
election the party circle can be used.
This will include all the parties for
only the Bull Moose which will go
ent column without the benefit of a
party circle, thus making it necessary
for those voting the Bull Moooe ticket
to mark cross after the individual
names of each presidential elector.
The second ballot is white and in
cludes all state, congressional, legisla-
tive and county officers in their appro-
pirate party columns under the party
circle.
The third ballot is pink, being the
referendum upon which are submitted
all questions relative to amendment of
the state constitution and of laws which
the legislature designate shall be sub
mitted to the people before becoming
effective. The principal question to be
submitted on the referendum ballet at
the coming election is that of woman
