Democrats of the old rock ribbe d
democratic state of Missouri have lit.
tie hopes of carrying that state for
Cox next Tuesday. A letter from a
most reliable source just received has
the following paragraph "A demo-
crat told me today, az Aberdeen, that
he had letter from Missouri poll
tician' whom he has known for many
years, which said that Missouri ii
very doubtful, so uncertain that no one
should bet on the outcome" And tina,
is the way 1t goes all down the line II
looks very much as though the solid
south" was to be shattered this year.
A. B. Lee, of Wooster, Ohio, was an
arrival in town Saturday. coming here
with w. c. Jones. of Nighthawk, after
trip into Idaho. where he is inter-
ested in gold mine that has the ear
marks of real mine. Back in the ear
ly days when Loomis was on the top
wave of mining boom, MIR. Lee was
interested in properties in that local
ity and made the old camp visit. Ills
investments at that time were not
profitable, but We trust that he may
recoup his losses in his present VEN
ture Mr.. Lee sees many changes in the
country during the IS years since he
was last here.
Next Tuesday will be election day
and every voter, man and woman en-
titled to the franchise, should turn out
and cast ballot. This is govern
ment of the people, and the people
should take enough interest in the
selection of officials to aid in that
selection. Voting Is duty that you
owe yourself and owe to your country
All people do not think alike along
political lines, and it is just as well
for the government that they do not,
but every one has, or should have, a
preference as to party and that pref
erence should be expressed at inc
polls. Remember next Tuesday and
vote early.
