It's Funny, Isn't 1t?

It is strange that newspaper mar
should be compelled to solicit adver.
Using or offer argument for its use
Funny, isn't it, that the man who
thinks he is a business man, will get
up IN the morning from an advert Used
mattress, shaves with an advertised
razor, takes off advertised pajamas
and puts on advertised underwear, ad-
vertised hose, shirt, collar, tie, adyer-
tised suit, sits himself at the table
and cats advertised breakfast food,
drinks advertised coffee or substitute,
puts on an advertised hat, lights an
advertised cigar, goes to his place Of
business where he turns down the adj
vertising solicitor for his home news
paper on the ground that advertising
doesn't pay.

Payette county is experiencing her
FIRST real political campaign. In years
past we have just been on the out
skirts of old Canyon county where a
candidate from this part would stand
about as much show of being elected
as the kaiser now has of ruling the
world. There seems to be no Lack of
candidates to fill the various offices,
and every fellow knows the other fell
low, and will cast his vote at the
polls with more or less personal know
ledge of the real qualifications of the
man he is supporting. Some of the
office seekers have become confused
in the shuttle and really forgot which
party they belong to, but have finally
settled down to take pot luck with the
rest September Sd will settle matters
with more than half that are now full
of anticipation, leaving like number
on each political ticket to make the
final run for the general election in
November, when it is hoped that set
of officers will take their seat who
will conduct the affairs of Payette
county in a creditable manner.
