To the Republicans of the Sixth

Corning. March PA race war is
about to break out in Corning. An in
nocent coIored baby will suffer from
the outraged feelings of thirty eight
mothers
AS is well known Corning and vicin-
ity. when it comes TO babies, takes
the lead. An enterprising moving pic
ture show man, thinking 10 swell the
box office receipts, conceived the idea
OF having baby show contest. Thirty
feet baby fastened TO the artist and
had baby's picture taken, with the as
surance that il would win the valuable
prize offered for the most perfect BABY,
TO be devided by vote OF the audience.
Monday night was the opening OF the
contest, TO continue for week, pro-
viding the outraged mothers of the
thirty EIGHT can be restrained that
long. Each OF the thirty eight babies
got one vote and most OF the others
were east for No. l3. the almost per-
feet specimen OF son OF Ham. If
this continues for the week as il IS ex-
pected. the suffragette outbreak in
