Stont. who voted for free trade OF
everything farmer raises or Mad
dox. who has been cow boy. miner.
rancher and lawyer in Montana for
more than thirty years and who is

The people Of Malta and vicinity
shon]d remember that DIR. Minnlck
of Saco, who is running on the
Democratic ticket for representative
has stood by the county division
promoters from the start and is
man worthy of your support. There
is but two Republicans OIL the ballot.

The Glasgow News says: "Use the
same Judgment aud common sense in
voting that you would in selecting
a man to work for yon III your
business or on the farm. You must
nav the freight" Now. that is the
first thing we have seen III the News

One of the noticeable things Of this
campaign is the fact that the CLERK
and Recorder isdelivering the ballots

The former Clerk and Recorder, MIR,
Shoemaker. was in the habit OF
delivering the ballots by registered
mail. Mr.. Shoemaker is the ltep"b-
lican candidate for the office OF Clerk
and Recorder. and if you want less
taxes, vote for ~ man that will save
the county needless expense.

Editor McGauvram, of the Glasgow
Democrat, throws Il fit because DR..
Clay and G. W. Powell come out for
office in Valley county. There is no I
reason why they should not come and
no reason why they should not be
elected. They are both men who
have been in Valley county a great
deal longer than McGauyran has been
and have paid more taxes into the
treasury of Valley county than
McGauvran will ever pay. lie says
they are from Phillips county, but he
