At the committee meeting of the
bull moose party at the court house
/ in Kahoka last Friday, no action was
taken toward getting out county
ticket. We understand that num-
Der of the committeeman were in
favor of endorsing the republican tic
ket and having the names Of the can
didates put on their ticket, but this
was opposed by others and as a COM
promise no endorsement was made,
leaving the party free to vote for
whoever they please in the county.
At first glance this would appear all
right, but when the fact that not one
out of ten will think to write in the
names on the ticket, it spells" prac-
tically nothing.
VIM. McNally is seriously i'll at his
home in Kahoka.
