THE CAT OUT OF
THE BAG WITH
A REPUBLICAN
TIC KET 7.

- The claim is put forward in behalf
If the Non-P Partisan Citizens Ticket
IN the pending municipal election
that the movement for nomination OF
that ticket was spontaneous, Joined
IN by many in both political parties,
in response to a strong demand by
people regardless of political affila-
tions.
That statement is not borne out by
facts that are significant. Take the
petitions for getting upon the official
ballot the names of those nominated
on that ticket.
Each petition is signed by twenty
three electors. If the movement for
nominating such a ticket were as
strong as supporters of the q ticket
would have people believe, signers
to the petition would have been some
where nearly equal in number. Yet
of the twentv-three so signing those
those petitions but three are
democrats. All the rest are Re-
publicans. One of the three demo-
Gratis is in the employ of a concern
which is strongly Republican, and
whose employees vote as dictated.
The twenty Republicans are dyed
in the wool adherents of that party
and they are the backbone of that
organization. They are all promi-
nent leaders of the, Republican Party;
and they would not have listened fol
minute to a nomination of hybric
ticket if they had been possessed OF
any hope for electing straight Re
publican ticket.
A great majority of the twenty
were present at all meetings held ii
support of that ticket, while the Dem
ocrats who signed the petitions were
conspicuous by their absence, showing
how much interest any Democratic
voter feels in the success of Re
publican non-partisan ticket.

As presented yesterday in "The

had publication of the monthly state

conformity with the ordinance quoted,
when the Clerk has transmitted to
the mayor and each alderman a copy
of that statement and read it in open
meeting of the City Council. That is
publication under the law. Whenever
the law means that publication shall

some cases goes so far as to say
that where there is no newspaper
published in the county interested it
shall be published IL a newspaper In

ter of publication of the statement of

ance has Oeen complied with when

WIRING THEIR ALLEGIANCE

The local office if the Western
Union Telegraph Company has been
completely swamped during the past
few days by messages from Mexicans
in various parts of the United States,
to First Chief Adolfo de la Huerta
announcing their allegiance to the
new government of Mexico, and in
many cases giving excuses for not
having gotten onto the band wagon
sooner.
Mani of the messages, it is stated,
are from Mexicans who have been
expatriated from their fatheranld by
the Carranza government, and who
are now taking advantage of de la
Huerta's generous invitation to all
Mexicans who have the welfare of
the country at heart to return and
help in the upbuilding of the nation

WAS THEIR KIND

Yesterday evening the Herald
"Made a roar" in a new line. 1t was
put out greatly by so many poll
ticians hanging around the City Hall
where registration is being conduct
ed. It declared the presence of so
many politicians was annoying to
voters calling for registration.
Now, what gave foundation for the
criticism was the fact that there were
in the City Hall yesterday four or
five gentlemen who might be describ-
ed as politicians" But except one
they were all Republieans-the
Herald's chosen people.
The gentlemen objected to by the
Herald were witnesses in a case on
trial in the police court. Witnesses
were excluded. So they sat in the
council chamber (registration office)
awaiting their turn to testify.

The Herald asserts that it
is alleged that there is a cam
paign fund of $4,000 in hand of
managers of the Non-P artisan
ticket, to use as a slush fund
to carry the election; and it
brands the story as "a cam

ranged to convey an idea that
the story was published in these

never published any such as

Corriedale sheep developed in Aus

There are at present about 1900 sheep
