Now shall we, the sovereign
voters of Grant County be party
party to such a contemplate,
sneaking. sniveling mangy-cur deal
as this? Or shall we rise up as one
man and rebuke this brand of un-
derhanded chicken thievery with a
recall that will send the icy chills
up and down the spines of every
CRATER in our county? Voters of
Grant County, let us recall Them
ems and White with such majorities
that the whole state of Washington
will take notice that there is one
county that will at least demand
honesty of its public officials, and
which is prepared at all times with
brass toed boot and swift kick
for all crooks and con men. Let
us make it so plain in this recall
that none but honest men will care
to hold office in our county. Let
us put away this eye-sore of evil
that stands up as constant temp
tation to our sons and daughters
who may aspire to public office.
Let us, the voters of Grant County,
make the holding of public trust a
thing of HONOR instead of synon-
yms of disgrace as it is, and let the
recall of these two precious exam
Piles of malfeasance in office be the
beginning of a crusade that shall
