TO THE VOTERS OF THE
CITY OF ALEXANDRIA

g, The City Democratic Committee
urgently requests all citizens who
have the right Of suffrage to cast
their ballots on Tuesday, May p,
1919, for the Hon. R. Walton Moore,
of Fairfax County, for the Congress
of the United States.
He is the nominee of the Democra-
tic Party, and should receive the cor
dial support of all loyal democrats.
A better equipped candidate could not
have been selected for the standard
bearer of the party. His brilliant
mental attachments and lofty traits
of character eminently qualify
him for the position. If elected, he
win discharge his official duties with
singular ability, and his constituents
win have representative of whom
they can feel justly proud. In order
to maintain the present state of pros
perity prevalent in the city and dis
trict, it is of the utmost Importance
that the people should have repre-
sentative in the National Congress
whose capabilities will command in
fluence and respect. 1t will be impos-
sib!e to accomplish his defeat if those
who have the right of suffrage per-
form this important civic duty.
Respectfully,
/ City Democratic Committee,

Clipped Here and There


They take the rock bituminOus
And place 1t on the street,
Then they pound it and they roll it
Till they get it smooth and neat;
And then they boil the asphalt
In Brobdingnagian pot
Which they spread upon the gravel
And they give it to it, hot.
Then the mass is smoothed and leveled
And it's pounded and it's rolled
And a barricade is builded
To protect it from the cold.
Then they tell you there's a roadway
That will last until the period
When the skies are falling down.
