Beware of Last
Minute Campaign Lies

As is customary just prior to cleo
ton in this county, there are being
circulated a number of campaign
lies, which are absolutely without
foundation. This is done in the hope
that they will have effect after it is
too late to be corrected. We believe
that a large majority of our voters
have made up their minds as to how
they will cast their ballots and we
urge them to vote according to their
sober judgment and not believe any
Of the last minute lies being cir
culated.
