attempts to prosecute bootleggers
would be fatal to the best interest
of the community, we were determ-

therefore we took time to carefully
and Systematically collect positive
evidence before making arrests. Az
ter weeks of vigilance We collected
the evidence and had an absolutely
sure case, just as We were determ-

toward prosecution. We made the
arrest, had the day set for trial, and
now, imagine our disappointment and
chagrin, when we were informed by
our own attorneys that our own city

ed We were not a dry town and our
case would be thrown out of court
II we went to trial. OF course, we
had to compromise and in spite of
the expense our Bookkeeping account
SHOWS a balance on the right side
of the ledger. Today, through the
action of the Republican admins
tration our city records show that
we had liquor election in June
1915 and that We are dry city, and
upon securing evidence we can sue

ton on Tuesday, November 2, will
see the necessity Of returning the
party in power to office again on the
record made during the past two
years. They contend that 1t is the
most progressive administration ev-
er given in the history of the city.
The Mayor, Hon. C. z. Harris,
has made good Official and while
he could not see his way clear to
accept a second term, the Republi-
can candidate for the Office of May
or, Mr.. A. A. Thomas, is a man who
has made a success OF his own bust
ness and man with a clean record.
He has been one of the most ardent
workers in the city council during
the past two years and has shown
much executive ability in the water
works department where he has
spent most of his efforts.
AS for Henry Plant, aspirant to
the office of City Recorder, for
second term, it can be truthfully said
that Mr.. Plant has made a most
dutiful official. His experience
should be carefully considered by the
voters and there is no question but
that he will be returned to that Of
flee with handsome vote. His
books have been pronounced to be
in as good shape as one could ex-
pect them to be, were he working
for a private corporation.
The other candidates on the Re-
publican ticket are men who are all
well known in the community, and
II elected to Office will keep up the
good work of the past administra-
ton. They are men who believe in
public Improvements and will al
ways be found making the most Of
the moneys at their disposal. II
the people want the kind of an ad-
ministration that has characterized

STAND BY THE UNITED STATES

If American citizens were engaged
in blowing up factories in Germany,
every man found in such work would
be shot dead. Diplomatic notes from
this country would have no weight.
The men would die.
Yet depredations by German spies
are almost daily happenings in the
United States. This has been true for
year. Samuel Gompers, president
of the American Federation of Labor
has been active in discovering and
exposing these foreig nagents.
These facts are well known. Am
bassador Dumba was ordered home
because he had undertaken to provoke
strikes in certain industries in the
United States.
These offenses against our laws and
the lives Of our people ought to cease
and at once.

because they think everything here
is at loose ends and that nothing can
be done without primary election.
They read about the lynchings of
negroes in the south and the all too
frequent violation of the laws in the
north. These are elements of encour-
agement to the foreigner.
Furthermore, the foreigners believe
that our politicians are afraid of the
foreign vote; hence that the for
eigner can come over and shoot and
kill, and explode dynamite at his own
will.

are many who think the wedding

affair. No one begrudges the presi-

U. S. HAS BEEN SLIPPING.

Uncle Sam has been in business one
nundred and thirty-six years. His en-
Serprise has grown to that now he
mas 100.000,0O0 people.
During the past two or three years
he has been losing ground. People
who formerly respected him do not
do so now. AT one time his slightest
whisper was law. That day seems
20 have passed.
When an old established business,
which once had widespread trade,
begins to lose money, sensible stock
holders begin to inquire the cause.
The hats and bonnets of the civilized
world are no longer lifted when
Uncle Sam goes by.
He never was very much of fight
.ng man but he made it rule that
nobody spit in his face.
Uncle Sam was known as rather an
untamed creature. He was not cele-
brated for owning great fortresses,
out he as understood to be man
Who would not endure insults.
Since the advent of Woodrow the
cut throats and murderers who con-
troll Mexico have been killing Ameri-
cans, and reply evasively when their
crimes were called to their attention.
The Mexican somehow discovered that
Uncle Sam had grown timid, and
they piled insult upon injury. Some
how the ignorant Mexican learned that
a temporizing party was in control
n the United States. These facts
were part of the Mexican bandits
capital stock. On the border the Mex
leans were afraid of nobody except
the Texans. who conduct one of
Uncle Sans branch establishments.
These are some of the reasons why
Uncle Sans wagon is slipping back
On the hill.
The European countries which are
at war have learned that Uncle Sam
IS an easy mark and have filled his
country with spies. and have sustain
ed sedition by word and publication,
says the Des Moines Capital. They
have blown up manufacturing plants
and promoted strikes. They have
openly threatened Uncle Sam in the
discharge of his legitimate business.
they have blown up American citizens
on steamships. The worst of all is
they continue their manifestations of
disrespect.
Some of Uncle Sans stockholders
who are interested in branch con
Germs in other parts of the world, are
urging him on in his course, not car
ing whether he goes up hill or down.
Other stockholders having large-
interest in the general establishment,
are seriously inquiring whether or
not they had better permit the entire
old and we'll established house to go
to the wall, or whether they had bet
ter call halt. And from the recent
Tuesdays elections it looks as though
the do-nothing Mexican policy had
received severe rebutc.
Some of the younger stockholders
arc getting their enthusiasm up, and
say they are going to see about It.
