Vote early. If you would sub
stitute the dominion rule of the
Woodrow Wilson League for good
old fash Toned Americanisn, the kind
of Government the Revolutionaries
whipped the British for. you ought
to vote for Cox, because he says he is
in complete accord with Wilson. If
you are for preserving our home rule,
the kind of Government our fathers
and fore-fathers fought and died for,
then vote for Harding and Co 'idge,
because there can be no doub. as to
what they stand for. Don't go off af-
ter strange Gods. Don't worship at
the shrine that Woodrow built across
the Ocean. For ourselves, we are
content to bow only at the foot of
that fashioned by Washington, JEFF
ferson, Lincoln and the other illus
trious Patriots, that Shrine DER which
the STARS AND STRIPES float. the
white of which symbolizes purity, and
the red, to us is an ever reminder of
the rivers of blood shed by the he
roes of Valley Forge and Bunker Hill,
that reasonable freedom should be
the heritage of man in the Western
World. Which shall II be, the Shrine
for which the Stars and Stripes serve
as a symbol and covering or shall it
be that Tower of Babel that Woodrow
built? Should Washington ask you
on November 3, concerning your
stewardship what will you be able to
say. VIII il be Father Washington,

actly we will swallow Cox, Beckham
Johnson and the whole shooting
match, if we die with ptomain poi
son in "a hours thereafter. In or
der to make his charge complete, to
clinch it even beyond the shadow of
doubt, he offered the following un-
conference.-the, unimpeachable and
profound argument in support there
of, viz: that the Good Lord entirely
overlooked the Editor of the Re-
publican when he passed the brains.
We have never prided ourself with
having any too much of the gray
matter, but we have barely enough to
know that a charge of the lack of it
in the other fellow, is a mighty poor
argument. Yes Stree, mighty
lame argument against something
that is down in plain English, and of
which Harris has brains enough to
be ashamed, yet not quite enough to
enable him to answer, or explain in
a sensible manner. AS to the brain
matter, I'll confess, the Lord did miss
me, for there was a little fellow who
was not eating at the first table, you
know the little always had to wait,
and when the dish was passed to us
there was nothing much left other
than scraps of monkey brains, so we
had them reserved for the little,
freckled-faced urchin who had to
wait. After the Lord had gotten thru
examining the scattering scraps
amounting to about one-tenth of one
grain, into the brat's nut, he named
him Charlie Harris, and planted him
in Versailles and this is the same
thing that wandered off to these
parts, to fill the engagement of T. u.
of Mississippi. We trust that
Charlie arrived home safely, as his
people have made no search for him.

It's a queer way about how things
take such strange turns. for instance,
last fall Democrats in State cam
paign would not look at you and talk
State affairs at all. No sir, 1t was the
war, the League of Nations and such
things. The Speaker here Saturday,
appeared to love the ether side of the
qnestion most, that is local and not
the big things the people are most in
terested in now, and are to vote on,
Tuesday.

Vote early, Men and Women, and
when you do, let America, the Sweet
Land of Liberty, be uppermost in
your thoughts, the Land that has
never failed though it delayed some

doing the right thing by the Cypress

mortgaged in a Covenant to do so at
the dictation of any outside or for
eign influence.

Wilson couldn't or wouldn't, at

out of war, and now they would have
you believe that the League this same
Wilson built will keep the world out
of war. And Cox says "me too" It's
our business, our duty, if you please,
to support the United States of Am
erica, the Commonwealth of Kentuc-
ky, Ohio County, the community in
which we live and our own household,
even to the last drop of our blood
and the bottommost farthing This
we mean to do, always, when justice
and the exigencies of the occasion re-
quire it. Under the Wilson League
we are called upon TO make no dis
tinction when it comes to matters of
support, of life and DEATH as relates
to our own beloved Country and the
countries of other and foreign climes.
Are you ready to offer your self and
your son as a pledge, as hostage
that no oppressed people may throw
off the yoke of tyrrany We gained
our independence by just that sort of
method, are you ready to say that
you will shed your blood that others
may not do the same? That's what
the Covenant that Wilson built
means. It's a guarantee against en-
croachment from without and preser-
walton of conditions now existing
within.

Morrow for taking time off to de-
vote to the campaign. We thought

say anything about Cox being absent
