Does any sane man believe that
graft, ring rule and political chican.
cry is being practiced to the limit in
this county?" We had been going
along for years thinking we were liv-
ing among pretty decent set of peo,
pie. We now discover that those who
have been held in high respect are
crooks. grafters and thieves. How
has it been possible for us to get
along all these years? How have we
been able to build up such splendid
county and such fine communities!
If we are advertised to the world as
being held by the throat by gang
of crooks, is it encouraging to the i'm
migration which we must depend upoI
for further development?

A vote for Sidney j. Cats is vote
against Woodrow Wilson, for Cats,
time and again, in speeches over this
State, denounced Wilson, and when
finally cornered into making state
ment as to whether he would vote for
the President or not, he declared
that che might do so, but that he
would close his one eye and hold his
nose while doing it.

Our heart goes out to the poor poll

OF course, it doesn't make any diff
lican one day and a Democrat the
next. But if he has no principles
politically, he is not likely to have
much principle personally.

If Cats should by any chance be
elected there's going to be lot OF
fun in this State when the boys
come around to cash in the promises
that have been made them. There
isn't an office in the Governors gift
but that at least half dozen broken
down politicians are claiming each
that it has been promised to him.

A paper that adheres to the truth
is seldom sued for libel. The Cats
papers that are whining because
some of them have been jerked up
for their wild, reckless and SANDER
Gus statements, ought to try print

Details of Cats negro killing are
trickling down from Alabama. Cats
rather tries to leave the impression
that he killed two negroes, but only
one murder can be traced. That was
of a negro youth, a boy, it is said,
only 10 years old. Cats jerked a
paling from fence and struck the
boy dead. Gentlemen, there's the

HORRIBLE CONDITIONS AMONG
WORKERS EXPOSED IN CINCINNATI

From the Cincinnati Chronicles:
Thousands of men and women
have been forced to strike against re-
Voting conditions Sr low wages.
Whenever there is a strike one can
hear the question, "What are those
men striking for?''
''Sometimes it is question of
hours, another time it may be ques-
ton of wages, again it may be pro-
test against insanitar5 and unjust
working conditions. And once again
it remains for Cincinnati concern, a
branch of the National Biscuit COM
pany, to come to the fore and take
the palm for the IN ,st horrible con-
ditions that the human mind can
conceive.
Were mere words depended upon
to illustrate the horrible conditions it
would require a more gifted pencil
than the one penning these lines to
adequately describe the revolving con-
ditions under which some of the men
labor, and especially SO since the
strike for better conditions and bet
ter wages forced the old employees to
give up their positions"
half-tone depicting the horrible con-
dltion of one mans hands who has
been handling bread in what is known
as Muth's bakery, a part of the Ma
tional Biscuit company. It then con-
tinued:
I'm the handling Of bread the hands
of this one man became blistered
and those blisters eventually broke
and became fostering sores, exuding
a pus and a fluid that would almost
turn the stomach Of the healthiest
man or woman. And yet with his
hands in this horrible condition he
was forced, as strik cbreaker, to con-
taminate every loaf of bread that
passed through his sore and fostering
fingers.
FINALLY they became so bad that
