To the Public:

 My opponent, Mr Mum, was induced to enter this race as an anti-road man, and is Mir Bushs candidate Mir Bush is now on the stump in this County. making every effort to induce the peo- pie to vote for certain candidates. He has made a great many statements at tempting to show how the people are being deceived and he is representing himself to be the defender of the peo- pie. l thought it good idea to look up his record and see if he is consistent with the way he voted when he was in the Senate
 l have spent whole day looking up the Senate Journal for 1917. l find that on page 353 he voted for Senate Bill No H. to give to the Town of Wal dron 50 per cent of the Road taxes col lected in the town. from which I sup pose that he thought the towns were not getting their share of the taxes. He also voted for similar bill in Pine Bluff. hut he is HOW trying to convince he people that the town people are not paying any tax scarcely and the farmer K bearing the whole burden.

THE TIDE SWEEPS ON

The race for Governor narrows daily. It nar- rows hourly. Righteous-thnking men and women, have you ever witnessed such a campaign of mis- representation and islander?
 Is it possible that very many people will be impressed to believe the islanders being uttered and distributed against Thomas C. McRae? Is the stur- dy character which he has builded to be affected by such unthinkabe n,isrepresentations? We ask these questions merely to present the thought. We know that the people are with hirn.
 We were not prepared for the wonderful up- heaval for McRae that is on. The death knell of machine rule is soon to ring out We ask friends to stand firm. The hopeful messages flooding into headquarters leave no doubt of the situation. Mo- body knows this better than the machine, and its candidate. But the machine stumbles on. 1t must fight out. It is its last legs. The death rattle is in is hoarse throat Soon the people will rejoice. In the meantime we augment our forces right up to the closing of the poll.

Illicit Trade Is Spreading IN

Smuggling and Usury Increase
Courts Crowded With Those
Who Break Laws.

Coblenz.-Illicit trade in food, with
its attendant evils Of smuggling and
usury, Is on the increase throughout
Germany, according to newspaper &C.
counts.
The rationing system has never
been abandoned even In the occupied
areas Of the Rhineland, and some Of
the newspapers contend that the aver.

Butter has been selling there at $

cost 1.75 marks apiece. Eggs in the

but are very scarce at any price.
Meat is also reported as fairly plen-

twice each month. when the author
