that all Germans are hopeful OF the
outcome of the war. They are loya',

CONDONING WRONG MAN-Leon
Jacobs practlceS law III the ieiiiiii ;
building, and Fred Jacobs sells real
estate in the Empress Theater build
ing, and thereby hangs a tale. The
similarity in names caused a miXup
that might have been responsible cor
the defeat of Fred Jacobs, who re-
Gently ran for county recorder. AT
least, that is what Leon Jacobs
thinks, who was not running at all
unless he kept it quiet This is the
way theangle broke. For the past
, two days Leon Jacobs has been meet
ing people with whom he is &c
quainted and they have been telling
him how they voted for him, ami
how sorry they were that he did hot
get the office. OF course, explana-
tions have been in order, but the
thing that strikes Leon is the poss:
bility that Fred lost more votes than
he gained. Leon says he is a demo-
chat, and that those who mixed the
two Jacobs up might have been
greater than those who voted for the
other fellow because Of him. Now
he wonders if he contributed to the
Fred Jacobs defeat because of the
similarity of handles.
