the other necessary victory for
the 100 cent loyal is to that the vote gets out
The editor of The Tribune has full faith that the
100 per loyal win top to bottom,
tho he realizes that there is danger in overconfdence
for that all loyal voters to let nothing
interfere with going to the polls next Monday.
Our country calls. year the country called to
the to enlist and the young men of Stevens
county responded in such numbers that this community
took just pride in the record which they established
Then the first call for for the Red Cross

Cross chapter organized, the women were en-
listed and today chapters compare with the
Stevens county chapter in the amount of supplies which

for the Third Liberty Loan and the Second Red Cross
War Council Fund, and Stevens county went way over

Our country calls, and the voter who needs that
call will have sacrifices just the young men
who needed the call enlist had sacrifices (ho
to how very much less degree) just the loyal
workers of the Red Cross have made sacrifices and just

right down to the rock bottom of loyalty. In BIZ
ennial diversion getting all excited election
and forgetting all about it the day. have the
past picked favorite candidate for thousand and
good, bad and Indifferent and for rea

liked him. and sometimes because didn't like the
other fellow voted against because he was
inexperienced and against another because had

and for another because he hadn't fattered in
a hundred men have often voted the way for
hundred different and those have often
been conflicting and SO jumbed up that candidate
could hardly tell what he expected to satisfy
the majority.
The fact is that in the past the which have
divided in political campaign have insignificant
and we have often become much excited trivial
matters. This year there big issue, vital ISSUE
the issue of loyalty, and there is exctement-only
