because it has been squeezed dry ol interest. Ii is a pretty well established fact that a republican administration
 will adopt high tarif rates and democratic administration will favor l lower levels so that the politician who | discusses this issue to the exclusion | of other subjects win soon find his audience beginning to yawn and won- | der when lunch is to be served
 | Aside from an abstract discussion
 of the tariff and the lack of interest | which audiences show in the subject l Mir. Spellacy made a weak start. The
 people don't want to hear anything
 more about business depression and
 they will dislike any man who tells
 them that another one is on the way | An indication that the republicans intend to play high trumps in the To- cal campaign is found in the an-
 nouncements during the past week
 that Ernest W. Christ and Deputy Judge B. w. filling will be candidates l for the nominations of representative
 under the G. o. P. banner.
 MT. Christ and Judge ATling would add strength to the ticket. Both are citizens of the finest type, friendly and democratic despite their po-
 sitions, and have a wide acquaintance among the" people and the people. Qt makes all the difference in the world where you put those quotation marks,) a',t. With "Dick" Covert running for the senate and Messrs. Christ and Alling asking the voters to send them to the lower house. the republican
 party would have three of the best men it could select. It would be the
 strongest ticket named by either party in many years and it should in fuence the trend of the voting. MT. Covert Is a vote-getter of the first
 water. MT. Christ is an od-tme campaigner, although his duties at the Stanley Works have prevented him from taking an active part in politics for a number of years. Judge filling is new in the political field. but he is well enough known and liked to make it worth while for the
 party to name him. All three stand
 we'll with the leaders and every effort would be made to push them across the line on election day.
 But the last minute announcements
 of these two men make the suspi- ciously inclined even more suspicious.
 Why is it? is question now heard
 frequently Are the republicans afraid of the election and therefore insisting on these strong candidates
 or-can it be possible that some fac
 tory interests have some pet legisla-
 ton they want put through and have
 therefore prevailed upon Mr Christ to run?
 The only fly in the ointment is the fact that there are others in the race, all of whom command some 'yiend- ship. Although the announcements by Messrs. Christ and filling over- shadowed everything else in the To- cal political world during the week, they did not by any means interfere with the. plans of Candidates Rice, Rossberg and Wells, who have been in the race for some time. The dec- laration by the Quigley faction that It's strength would be thrown to Rice adds Zest to the pre-primary cam paign. Whether the Quigley faction exists outside of the imagination of Quigley himself is question. The ex-mayor claimed to have control of the republican delegation to the state convention. but he could not prevent the election of Judge Klett to the state central committee, and the judge Hoo 1ryhn Quigley ioves just about as much as Babe Ruth loves the umpire who calls him out on strikes.
 This is a true story. as guilty fushes on the faces of at least two local young people who read this might attest. Both he and she were very tired and when they arrived at her home in the outskirts from some social gathering they sat down on a comfortable couch to discuss various items of mutual interest. i
 Then, a faint feminine voice in awed tones, might have been heard to whisper: "Oooh. Sh-h-h. How did you get in here?"
 A drowsy "Huh?"
 They looked at the clock on the then they looked at each other. It was after a. m. and both | had fallen asleep. And that's not all flor he had lost the last car into the | city and had to walk home.
 Moral Ware the light that lies in | a woman's eyes.
