TRyING.TO KEEP TT EIO.

Thunderation and hoWdy-do!
Have you heard about the Ford
vote2 If you have depended On
the Jumping Jingo press for your
news, then you certainly have not
heard about it. The listen to nae:
In several Of the Western
States, notably Nebraska and
Michigan, the vote in the Republi-
can primaries for a presidential
candidate was such a surprise that
it just about took the breath Of
the jingo bosses.
Flash went the orders to all
the jingo papers everywhere to
keep it stl1l-to print nothing
about the Ford vote.
For the plain, bare-footed facts
were these:
Our friend Henry Ford, the
Peace Advocate, ran away ahead
of everything elso on the ticket.
And Ford was not even a candi-
date.
All the big high-mucks Of the
Republican party are teeth-and-
toenail for militarism, but when
the the common voters Of that
same party got a whack at the
ballot-box, what did they do?
Voted almost solid for Henry
Ford, the Peace Advocate, that's
what they did. And that in spite
Of the fact that Ford is not a
politician, never has been, and
never expects to be. Could we
ask for any better proof that the
masses Of the common people are
for peace and against this insane
hurrah for butcher knives and
blood?
Blame-take it, if the common
people Of most any party could
rule they would do very well. But
it's these Internal bigbellied,
Mammon-worshiping political
bosses that spoil everything.
We might do better than Henry
Ford for president, but the
chances are we Will do a blamed
sight worse.

GET AHEAD!

Looky here, comrades, I'm 90
ing to start a contest. 1t don't
cost anything to JOIN it except a
little work, and there will Le lots
of honor and bushels of fun in it.

ing The Fuol.killer's clrcu alton

sent tue exact number of paid up
subscriptions TO the Foot Killer
on the first day of May, 1916. I
am making no effort 10 pad,
the list or make it appear bigger
than it is. The figures are cor
rect, and they speak for them
selves.
Run your eye down this column
and see where your state stands.
Is it at the top? 1t not, then roll
no your sleeves and go TO work to
put it at the top. You will notice
that Georgia has more than twice
as many as its nearest compet-
itor. I1urrah for Georgia! Now /
don't want Georgia to do any less
than she has been doing, tut |
want each and every other state
in the Union to pitcn right in and
do is level best to get ahead Of
Georgia. That's where the fun
will come in. Now let's see what
state will head The list next
month. This is going to be a hot
race for Fool Killer subs. Look

Every body ready? There! Go it.

YOU AND ME, COMRADE!

AltnOugn Inc FOOl-hlller has
been mailed at Boomer since
February, the printing was done
at MOravlan Falls up to and in
GLIDING last issue. But have
just now finished moving and set
ting up my big cylinder press 10
my new office, anu this issue is
being printed right here at home.
| now have a larger and nicer
Office than l had at Moravian
Falls, and it looks like the efforts
of my enemies to ruin me and
wreck my business have not a.
mounted to much. True, | have
been put to great expense in
building and moving, but 1 am
now better fixed than ever be-
fore, in spite of the fact that
certain parties thought they had
me on the downward road and
that would never be able TO get
on my feet again.
1t was all on account of nv
political views. AS long as | went
ahead like a blind puppy and
yelped for the Republican party
| was a mighty handy tool 10
have around. But the very minute
| got my eyes open and began to
expose the rottenness and cor
ruption of the old plutocra,ic
parties right then | became
very poison and dangerous.
1t was alright for a Republican
to denounce the Democrats, and
it was all right for a Democrat to
denounce the Republicans. That
was a part Of the political game,
and it was necessary in order to
keep the people fooled up But
for a man TO be SO recklessly
honest as to declare that both of
the old plutocratic parties are
equally rotten and corrupt, and
that they are not at all interested
or concerned in the welfare of the
common people-oh, horrors!-
that was the most terrible CRIME
ever committed. In their own
hearts they all knew that | was
telling the truth, but it was such
an unpleasant truth that they
didn't want it told. Some people
are such fools that they would
rather go to hell with their
party" than to go to heaven
without it. But l am not that
sort of a political fool. No man
was ever more blinuly loya t.
the Republican party than once
was. ItWas all the sense | had.
But one day | began using my
head to think with, and SOON dis
covered what an aA full boob
had been.
Since then The Fool Killer ha:
been hot on the trail vi the plutes
and has used all its energy fight
ing Tor the rights Ut the connot
! people. THERE'S only one poil,ica
party on earth that takts any in
lere st in the welfare of the work
