c., Oct. 25, 191S.-Any statement
that Royal G.. Johnson since joining

for the state senate in the district If
Hand and Hyde counties, in which
he said; Now, as league members
what is our duty? We are reformers
and must bolster up and assist our
government in every possible way.
When we find wrongdoing we must
do our bit to correct it. MI. Johnson
is drawing two salaries and perform
ing one service. He is a candidate

more years. III Mr.. Johnson must be
reelected to receive two salaries and
perform one service let the republi-

Judge Carter (the democratl or vote
blank for congress"
This is a part of a signed article in

cent charge of graft made against
