The RexaI Straw Ballot

The United Drug Co. of Boston, is
again conducting nationwide
'straw vote" on president, the same
as in 1916, when the returns gained
from the advance vote in the presi-
Dental campaign foretold the result
in that election with surprising accur-
acy.
The vote is being taken, as in 1915,
through the 5000 RexaH stores
throughout the country. Ballot boxes
were placed in each of these stores
and on September 18th the voting be-
gan. These ballot boxes will be kept
open for voters until November 2nd,
and the results will be compiled and
given out to the public daily, begin
ming October 1st.
King Bros. opened up the ballot
boxes in their Rexan store in Hays,
Wednesday of this week, and people
can vote their political preference at
any time. All that is required is that
the person voting be of proper age
and of course, cast only one ballot.
The vote so far as heard from over
the county is two to one in favor of
Harding.
There are two ballot boxes, one for
men and one for women. This is
done because of the fact that women
will have the presidential ballot in
the country at large for the first time
this year, and the most uncertain ele-
ment in the coming campaign is the
woman" vote. How will ''she" vote?
The political dopesters and prognosti-
Gators don't know. That's why they
will watch the straw vote with fever
ish attention this year.
The drug stores of the country are
open from early till late and for that
reason more people viii have an op-
portunity to vote than if placed any
where else Not only will the local
vote be bulletined each day, but also
the vote in the state and in the ma
ton.
It seems the ladies have had enough
of the ''keep US out of the war busi-
ness and are voting almost solid for

The following from an anonymous
writer we publish because his ideas
are good. Some action should be
taken to get out of the old rut:
Well, how bout it Folks? Did you
you like the Fair, No? I know you
didn't and it's all because you are
getting tired of the same old races,
the same old carnival and the same
old everything. can't see why we
can't have something different from

having-have little originality about
