was for those of us who could spare
a nickel, a dime or a quarter to pur-
chase five, ten or twenty-five copies
from the various newsboys and dis
tribute them to readers on street cars
on our way to and from our homes
and among our neighbors and friends

the book.
From personal experience 1 know
that both methods, while a little slow,
are exceedingly effective.
Let those who have not tried them
apply this test and then suggest
something better.-T. P. Quinn.

Editor Day Book:-The daily press
asserts a desire to be fair and impair
tiaI on all subjects especially those
of public interest and welfare. In our
opinion the enclosed treats on mat

SOCIALIST CANDIDATES

Editor Day Book:-In your article
of Sept. 8, in which you indorse Dan
Cruice for county judge and state
that you are affiliated with no politi-
cal organization and that you think
it best as a voter because you can
make a better selection of candidates
by not being under obligation to any
faction, wish to reply that since the
three parties, the Rep, Dem. and
Prog, are all friends after election
sometimes before election in order
to fight the common enemy, the or
ganized labor and mostly the work
ing MANI that the working men
should and must also have a party
Of their own. This every union man
and every working man will find in

tickets who is not under obligation
to the factions or bosses.
The Socialist party candidates are
the only ones who represent the
working class and the majority. Their
platform can not be changed to suit
any individual or bosses.-Frank j.

Criminal Court.
