Forty-six new members were reported
by the hustlng committee OF the Gym

held. This makes total Of iS9 for the
first three days of the week. nfty-one
Monday. sixty-tvo Tuesday and forty
six Wednesday. The committee is now
striving to secure l70 more during the re-

The Commercial club has been forced
to wire to the novelty company for more
blue buttons. Such a demand has been
made for them that the box which con-
tained several thousand has dwindled
down to a few hundred OF the booster
badges.
There were some who ignored the let
tiers sent to them at the beginning Of last
week requesting that the button sent be
worn during the week OF campaigning.
Consequently some Of the little badges
were thrown In the waste basket.
The result has been that these men
have tired OF being stopped on the
streets, waylaid in office buildings and
at every corner by the boosters on the
membership committee.

OF course not, because Roosevelt

reputation Of that state would not
have been blasted Had he won in
Indiana, We might still regard the

heard no Word Of accusation or
cry Of outrage. But he lost in
North Dakots, New York and
Indiana and therefore the majority
Of the people. in those three states

And so we announce these

A primary is an honest primary

A primary is a dishonest primary

A promise can never he violated
