Word was received this morning
from headquarters at Fargo definitely
fixing the time of Mr.. O'Connor's
speech at Valley City for Friday
night at s o'clock October Is. This
time was set in order to give the
farmers and others from the country
and nearby towns to come in without
having to delay work on the farms.
Farmers are busy blowing and
it was thought more would
come into the night meeting.
The band will be on deck that
evening, the new school auditorium
will be used and it is planned to give
the next governor one of the biggest
meetings he has had this campaign.
Plan to have your friends hear this
candidate because you will hear a
scholarly, convincing, clean speech:
free from all abuse. Mr.. O'Connor
does not resort to any of these politi-
cal "abuse" talks-he tells you the
facts in a gentlemanly way. The la
dies are particularly invited to hear
him.
