THE POLITICAL wRITEUPs

This issue of the Democrat is de-
voted to a great extent to advertis-
ing and write-ups Of the various can
didates for county, state and district
offices. On page four you will find a
brief mention of all the candidates
running for the more important Of
fees on the Democratic ticket, and
you will find their ads. scattered
around in different parts Of the pa
per. You will also find big bunch
of ads. from the local merchants
which are we'll worth taking time to
read and pay attention to. 1t is our
intention to mail copy Of this
weeks issue to every voter in Seward
county, and If you fail to get yours
come to the Office or call us up and
we will gladly send you one. Also, If
your neighbor fails to get one we will
gladly supply him with copy If our
attention is called to It. It has taken
all hands and the cook to get out the
paper this week, and II it hadn't been
for our long, hungry friend Millman
coming to the rescue with his news
gathering proclivities, we would in
deed have been a bunch of "blowed-
up suckers"

Major Barney Faces Big Task for

Major Barney, in charge Of the re-
cruiting in Oklahoma, is facing the
almost impossible task of getting
1,sSf recruits within the next twelve
months. The largest number of men
Oklahoma has ever produced in re-
srHitins in one year Is s67. This year
heee more must be found to supply
okiahoma's quota in the new army
divisions.
The hRst postmaster in the United
States to take advantage Of the IS
payment for recruits was the one at
Utioa, Okla. And he is the only post
master in the state who has secured
q recruit to date.
There are two ways in which q
postmaster may secure recruits for
which he will receive S. for each en-
listment. He may send an applicant
to Major Barney in charge of the sta
ton here with letter stating the
desire for enlistment or he may
notify Major Barney by wire or letter
and recruiting sergeant will be sent
to examine the applicant. BY either
method the postmaster may collect IS
for each recruit.
Some postmasters have secured ap-
plicants for enlistment but have not
used judgment. Last week one wired
the station that he had man. A
sergeant was sent to the town. He
found the prospective recruit to weigh
1lS pounds and to be six feet, three
inches tall--a fine applicant for side
show but not the army.
