ernor on Victory Ticket
UP FROM THE RANKS
Went Into Service as Buck Pri-
vate, Came Out With
Shoulder Straps

Frank B. Streeter, publisher OF the
Emmons County Record, candidate
for lieutenant governor on the Anti
Townley Republican ticket is a red
blooded American. He never minces
words and for years has been fighting
for principles of sound and represen-
tative government.

the fighting editor of Emmons coun-
ty. and one of the old political war

less reputation and of well known in:
tegrity When the recent referendum
election fight was being waged, he
started out after the red band Of
socialists without gloves and the re-
suit was that EmmOns county SWING

Streeter fights straight from the
shoulder. He has made some of the
most powerful addresses of the cam
paign and is fearless in his discus
sion of the issues and relentless in
his opposition to the red menace that
is sapping at the vitals of the state
He is not in the fight for any
emoluments. The office for which he
is running is a sixty day job, but, it
is tremendously important for the
lieutenant governor shapes to a great
extent legislative action through con-

mering. Mr.. Proctor, they said, will
continue in his present capacity with
the Wood forces. and the present
agreement to have Mr.. Hitchcock act
as generalissimo of the forces on the
