THAT is GOING OUT - BONE.
HEAD, SAY CARRIERS FRIENDS.

Letters were received here today
by a number of citizens from Con.
gressman Carter, begging support
for Bob Williams. One man stated
that Charley had played a pretty
smooth game since he has been in
congress, and that this was the first
bonehead he had pulled of. The
people generally expressed the opin-
ion that the democratic party had
honored Mr.. Carter enough without
taking his advice on the election Of
governor.
However, Mr. Carter has a right TO
work for whom he pleases, but the
people at the same time have a right
to disregard any semblance of ma.

national capitol. 1t is very evident
that some kind of a deal has been
pulled of in return for which Mr.
Carter has announced for Williams
From reports that come from every

PERIlS OF PAULINE
Story of the Sixth Episode.

The last attempt to secure Paul
ines fortune having failed, the two
villains are desperate. Harry is exert
ing all his influence to have Pauline
mary him at once, and they see their
opportunities slipping fast. When look
ing around, they see that there is go
ing to be balloon ascension and they
decide TO get Pauline to the grounds,
trusting to be able to do something
there to cause an accident. Pauline,
much 10 the chagrin of the cOnspira-
tors asks Harry to go along. When
they arrive, the balloon is about to
go up. Harry unconsciously helps
them by asking Pauline to see what
sitting in a balloon basket feels like.
Just as she enters the basket a wild
horse runs away, and in dashing
through the crowd, knocks over the
men who are holding the ropes. Paul
inc is carried up alone in the balloon.
She is carried some distance, and then
the anchor catches in some rocks.
There is only one way down. She is
forced to slide down the rope. Harry
has been following the course of the
balloon in his car and arrives in time
to see Pauline land on ledge about
half way down a cliff. The sides of
the cliff are so steep that there is no
way either up or down. He gets a
rope and proceeds to slide down to
her. Just then the conspirators arrive
on the scene and cut the rope. Both
Harry and Pauline are caught in the
trap. A good idea comes to Harry
and he climbs up the rope to the bal

CANDIDATES. PRINCIPLES IN
SPlRE METHOD OF HIS
CAMPAIGN.

Had you observed in this cam
paian that Chas. West has never
answered any charges made
against him. He has made a
campaign that has put him above
the ordinary mudslingng Of pol
itics, he has talked issues to the
people, he has left personalities
behind, he has kept on the offens-
i've and not on the defensive, and
for that reason we will give but
little heed TO the eleventh hour
campaign made against him here
by over jealous workers for
some other candidate.
II has been told on Mr.. West
that he is a Knight Of Columbus
in order to throw votes Of Masons
away from him.
MR.. WEST is HIMSELF A
MEMBER OF THE MASONIC
LODGE. THAT is ENOUGH TO
DENY IT.
chas. West has made a CAM
palgn above slander. He is a man
who never did a little thing in
politics.
People have right to choose
men for whom they shall cast
their ballot. They have a right
to measure them by the standard
of brains and Of moral fitness
which they think the office de-
mands.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington.-Forti with official

Democratic Leader Underwood told
the House Saturday there would be no
deficit in government finances and
that any prediction of one was a
dream based on wishes spripging from
political antagonism.
In an analysis o. the government s
financial situation, he announced that
the total receipts ofthe government for
the fiscal year ending June 80 would
aggregate s733.000,00O, leaving sur
plus of s30,000.000 and that with only
tax
That did not include Panama expen-
ditures, estimated at s35.00O.000. Next
year. he declared. Panama expendi-
lures would practically pass away and
the canal receipts would pay running
expenses.
Underwood's speech was in support
of the Senate's amendment to the leg
islative appropriation bill to increase
the treasury fund for collecting the
income tax from 1000, 900 to s1.500,-
900. which the House finally agreed to-.
Underwood explained that the increase
was for the collection of the income
tax from persons and corporations
trying to evade it.
For next year." he predicted. I'VE
can be assured of collecting more than
500. 100000 from the income tax even
If no more proportionately is collected
than was collected this year, and more
proportionately will be collected"
Underwood said customs receipts
were producing the current year $22,-
100000 more than the administration
had expected, and that the Treasury
Department had reported to him these
| figures of the total revenues for the
current year just ending:
Income and corporation tax SIS. 5.OO0,-
900 which had been estimated at $685.
900, 900.
