Here as III most of the places where
stops were made, the schools were
dismissed for the time being and one
lad bringing his football into the midst
of the crowd found several volley ball
players on teams of the local Y. M.
c. A. just aching for chance to pun.
NELL the pigskin and they satisfied
their wishes. A more varied assort-
ment OF entertainment could scarcely
be imagined and good cheer and Tel
lowship pervaded.
After Ollie came the visits to Pack
wood, Linby and Pekin where crowds
of varying size turned out to greet
the visitors The same program with
shifting of speakers was the order
ut these places with much mingling
among the people by the visitors. The
CHEEKY numbers by the band aided
in keeping up the jollity Of the bunch
and lent to the entertainment OF the
people gathered in the business Sec
lions Of these towns to hear the speak
ers and music. M
Like dessert that is served after the
meal were the very cordial receptions
rendered the visitors as the day began
to wane and the last places were
reached. No more hearty reception
and welcome could be received than
was given at Farson.
Received With Open Arms.
The arrival of the Ottumwans at the
Competine township center was an oc-
casion of real joy and pleasure to both
visitors and visited. Here the crowd
was received with open arms and was
fC1H op
preparation was made.
Flags bedecked the business houses
and even some of the residences. The
people were out and so was their
right hand In welcome. A reception
committee was on the receiving line
and the keys Of the town turned over
to the Ottumwans. Men were station
ed at the various corners to direct the
visitors to their places and last. but
not least, chicken suppers Of real barn
yard fowls were served in the Metho-
dist and Baptist churches by ladies
who know the culinary art az no chef
does.
: Supper, however. did not come until
all were fittingly prepared by the mu-
sic and speaking program. Upon halt
ing In the center OF town, G. w. Dick
ems and a number of the townspeople
greeted the visitors and the former,
mounting the speakers auto, delivered
in brief address the hearty welcome
of the community to the visitors from
Ottumwa. He expressed the appreci-
alton of the people of Farson for the.
coming of the Ottumwa merchants
and said that Farson people know
their town and country is among the
best and would not be fiattered to be
told that, but that they wanted Ottum-
vans to know 1t as we'll He also said
he did not fear that the visitors would
take away the town but expected in
stead and wished as well that they
would come again.
Several selections were played by
the band here and the quartet lent It's
aid in making happy the occasion by
a number of songs. The speaking was
ably taken care of by Chairman Hutch
ison, Major T. p. Spilman, j. H. Nor.
rell and Secretary Shanahan.

Martinsburg followed Farson and
again a crowd was In waiting upon
the arrival Of the caravan and the pro-
gram Of music and talks was carried
out in shorter time than at the former
place because haste must needs be
made to complete the schedule as
night had already fallen. From Mar.
tinsburg the party motored over to
Hedrick and the reception rendered at
Farson was duplicated here. One Of
the biggest throngs that greeted the
visitors en- route was packed in the
streets Of Hedrick.
The band stand was erected at the
principal corner and when the cars
stopped the welcome began with the
citizens of Hedrick grasping the hands
OF the visitors and making them feel
the sincerity Of the receptions extend
ed. Mayor e. L. Ysager opened the
meeting with an address OF welcome
to the visitors and turned the program
over to Chairman Hutchinson. The
band having taken places in the stand,
gave concert that was only interrupt
ed to give the speakers chance to
deliver their various messages. The
megaphone quartet was generous in
its songs and the occasion made a
most happy one. Messrs. Hutchinson,
Spilman and Morrell spoke.
Fremont Extends Greeting.
Fremont, the last stop before the
home stretch was reached, was but an

mont, extended heartfelt welcome
to the visitors. Despite the fact that
the hour was approaching 9 o'clock, a
big crowd filled the business section Of
the town and the people listened to
and applauded generously the re-
marks of Messrs. Hutchinson, Spilman
and Shanahan who closed the speaking
program for the long and arduous day.
The people likewise showed their ap-
probation for the playing Of the band
and the singing Of the quartet.
The day was fittingly closed by the
visit to Fremont where no more cor
dial welcome could be given than was
evident there. BY 9:10 p. m. the work
started at 1880 a. m. was closed and

OTIS OPPOSES
 INTERVENTION
Special to The Republican,

LOS ANGELES. oct. 2S.-General Otis issued hot statement in specific denial Of charges of democratic news papers and Wilson campaigners gem erally that he Is seeking American in- tervention in Mexico or fomenting trou- bit there with an object of enhancing the value of land holdings in Lower California, in which he and other mem bers oi the Times company have small financial interests Wilson democrats themselves have revealed also that the owners of these lands which were pur- chased from private owners with clear title to the improvements were vastly beneficial to the Mexicans themselves. although the promoters of the syndicate have never as yet made
 dollars profit on the project The Times has shown that il Is opposed to the annexation of any part of Mexico on account of labor conditions. The Times company is not Il member of the purchasing syndicate and no member
 Of the company was ever q beneficiary of any concession from the Mexican government and no such concession
 was ever sought. The democrats de-
 fled io prove that any person connected
 with the Times or the California Mex ican Land and Cattle company has
 ever sought to promote the annexa ton of Lower California despite the facts that bandit raids have cost the company S5l4.000 in stolen cattle and ruined property ard for which the com ! pany. despite Carranza's assurances ! has never been reimbursed one cent.

MANY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO VOTE AT
 COMING ELECTION

Unless there are better facilities for voting at the general election than at the primaries, not all the voters will Le able to exercise their franchise. according to M. A. Stanford who has served for ten years on election boards
 MT. Stanford says the present ticket is the most complicated one that has ever been before the people, and that he believes it will take the average voter from twenty minutes to half an hour to cast his ballot.
 He argues that unless the board of supervisors establishes more booths at the polling places, there will not be sufficient time for everyone to vote And everyone will want to cast his ballot at q presidential election" he adds.
 MT Stanford. whose son is Judge R. C. Stanford of the superior court, and who has represented this county 1 in the legislature, has the same fault to find with the ballot that is com mon among those who have seen the 1 sample ballot, He objects strenuously to the form which places the cand date for judge of the supreme court. judge of the superior court and the state tax commission, separate and apart from the other candidates. ! This form has been provided by the statutes and can not be changed except by an act of the legislature. Mir. Stanford contends that in many cases these candidates will be over looked.
 1 Voters will go right down the ticket without a glance at the names that appear above the list Further more, they will not stop to look for the iudges, they will be so worn out by the time they have voted on the amendments. Those amendments by the W: Y should be studied. The gen eral public Is not familiar with them and reading them over in the polls does not prepare one sufficiently to pass an intelligent vote on these amen lnents"
