gaining strength of President Wilson.
The fight made against Wilson and
the Wilson measures by Albert John
son, the present Congressman from
this district, is hurting him in a vital
way in Lewis county. Fair-minded
republicans all over the county know
Johnson is wrong, just as clearly as
Johnson himself knows he is wrong
in the bitter attacks he is making
on the president.
"These Lewis county republicans
will vote for Charles Drury, knowing
him to be an ardent supporter of
President Wilson and in strong sym.
pathy with Wilson's policies and legis,
lation.
"If the remainder of this district
is anything like Lewis county is now
and like Lewis county will be on
election day Drury will be named
Congressman by the people of South
western Washington November Srd.
This is political wisdom. 1t is
prudence and foresight 1t is the kind
and quality of public spirit and
sagacity a well-informed, independent
voter, such as Southwestern Wash
ington has, exercises"

Fishing so far this season at Devils
Lake has been exceptionally good.
Baraboo fishermen have been returning
during all hours of the day with fine
strings of pike, pickerel and bass. E.
G. Marriott has been having his usual
luck, having landed a number of large
pike and pickerel Now is the time
for sportsmen to enjoy an hour or two
at the lake because from past expert
ence local fishermen know that there
are only certain times during the sum-

willing to bite. Pike seem to be biting
the best, although number of fine
pickerel and bass have been landed.
