talking over" candidates for city Of

purposes il was a caucus. The slate
was made up and the mayor picked
by unanimous choice. we are told Mon

tand much r,ore):

Now and then a citizen is found who
wonders IL the business days Of the

Of mankind ought 20 lead him 10 satisfy
the public that the free beer gathering
last night was not in the interest OF his
sherir Davis ought to DO something
and say something about last night 5

We wish every citizen who wants a de-
cent local administration would call
Sheriff Davis TO the telephone today ard
make him tell where he is at Make him
tell what ne knows about beer politics;
and what he il going to do about Il.
In the course Of your conversation with

cares for his own good name and ha.

is that around Thanksgiving the
names Of anrMo and Carrigan will
belong 10 the dead languages while
zuppke and Haughton will be the big

they won't be heard of again!
