HINGE AIEV

That the Audrain County Repub-
lican Committee is making a des-
perate effort to defeat the Demo
cratic nominee, Alex Carter. for Pre-
siding Judge Of the County Court,
at the election, Nov. 3rd,is shown by
the following letter. The letter says
some Of the Democrats are dissat-
isfied with their nominee Judge
Alex Carter, one of the most loyal,
hard-working Democrats in the state
and 'they say they are going to vote
for the Republican candidate" The
letter does not express the opinion Of
the Democratic voters of good old
Audrain county who will give the
Democratic candidates including
Judge Carter a bigger majority than
ever. The letter sent out by the
committee is as follows:

Mexico, Missouri, October 20,l9l4.
Mr.. A. Collins,
Mexico. Missouri.
Dear sir;--
The Republicans Of Audrain Coun-
ty have an opportunity that does not
come to them very often, that is of
electing a Presiding Judge of the
County Court.
1t seems that a great many of the
Democrats are dissatisfied with
their nominee-they are daily com
.ng to us and stating that they in
END to vote for our candidate, Mr.. ,
:. B. Lyman, and that the Republi- !
ans must get out their full vote, s
| wish to go on record US stating
hat if the Republicans of this coun- i
poll their full strength in the No !
election, that we will elect :
'ur nominee. q
To get out u vote requires con- n
iderable work in the way of perfect 7
ng organization. We must have the i
and postoffice addresses of r
the Republican voters in the +
so that we may write them, y
nd urge them to go to the polls and
ote-we opened headquarters sew 7
raj weeks ago, and have been ac- e
engaged in securing the poll -
f the County ever since, but to :,
AIRY on this work requires funds. a.
We should also get in touch with U
Democrats that are dissatis- E,
ed. The form of ballot being chang n
i, it will be necessary to instruct A
that wish to scratch the bal
It, how to go about it. But we can p.
OF plan our campaign and carry it 10
4 successfully unless the rank and =,
lie of the party assist in a financial :,
ay. Will you not aid US? 4,
To make our plans and to carry =,
| the work to be done, we should a.
now what we can expect in the =
ay of help from the Republicans !,
the County. We would like for
contribution to be liberal-wo be -,
ave, however, that each Republican c,
iould be his own judge as to the g,
mount he should contribute. Do G,
1t wait for your committeeman to \,
you of our needs, send your con- j.
ibution to him, or to this office :.
here proper credit will be given. !,
Let me urge you to do your part.
he election is but a short time N
way, for this reason we request a
'ompt response.
Very truly yours, =

Why Missouri Men Should
Give Missouri Women
The Vote
BY
Suffrage League Mexico, Mo.
BY
Equal Suffrage League
Mexico, Mo.

Because they are proud of their women and are will
ling that they shall stand beside them in the manage
ment of the government of the town and the state as well
as in the management of the home and schools.
Because they recognize that times have changed.
and that today women are educated equally with men;
that they are in business; that they pay taxes and have
the same reasons for needing the franchise that a man
has.
Because the Missouri women have aided in civic
work and have shown the value of a womaifs idea in civ
ic housekeeping.
Because there are 10000 wage-earning women in
the state.
Because it will double the home vote of those people
who work for the permanent betterment of the state.
Because the women who move into Missouri from
Kansas and Illinois are disfranchised, as are also the
women who move from Colorado or California, Wyoming
Washington, Oregon, Utah, Idaho or Arizona. Suppose a
mans wife objected to moving into a state where she
would lose her vote just because she is a woman?
Because the women of the state have shown that
they want it by endorsing the movement through the
various women's organizations of the state.
Because statistics prove that women use the votes
when they have them for the improvement of conditions
and the publication of politics.
Because it is fair and there is no good reason for not
granting it.
Therefore, men of Missouri, vote Eyes" on amend

BRITISH FOUGHT
3 DAYS WITHOUT
SEEING GERMANS
Terrors of War at Long Range De-
scribed by Wounded Corporal
In London

London, Sept. 23.-The terror Of
modern warfare in lighting with
long-range guns and facing fire
from an invisible enemy is vividly
described by many of the wounded
who have reached here. A lance
corporal of the Connaught Rangers
.oday told OF the troops he was with
being in the line of battle for three
days before they saw a German.
THE disconcerting thing in the
present lighting with modern weap-
ons is that you may be in action for
hours without seeing the enemy,
said the corporal, one day we lay
for 10 hours in the trenches, with
shells dropping about Us like rain
We could see puffs OF smoke along
the horizon and hear the constant
roar of the guns, but that was all.
Only when you got bullet in the
arm or leg did you realize that you
were really in battle Though W
were under fire constantly, it was
three whole days before we actually
set eyes on a German. After that
there was plenty of hand-to-hand
lighting"
The corporal commented upon the
utter disregard German officers feel
FOR the loss Of men. He said that
the Germans advanced in close for
nations against one position, from
which the British had intended 20
withdraw, because it was dominated
by a German battery that could not
be located. The infantry came for
ward with the British guns opening
| great holes in the ranks, and Red
| Cross men said they picked up 1900
dead and wounded Germans III
front of the position. The British
loss did not exceed 20.
