County Boss Pulls Paper Out of Pocket

for Election judges and Clerks.
Old Gang Prepared for Fall Election by
Packing the Election Officers as Far as
Possible--Prepare to Win Election by Old
Means--Probably Wont Work.
FRED IRSEN PICKS LIST FOR
DAGMAR, SAYS BROTHER JENS

Jud Matkins is preparing for cleo
ton. He does not intend to leave a
stone unturned that will interfere
There is nothing like making assuInce
double sure. Tuesday morning after
the board had re-assembled, Matkins
pulled hist of names out Of his poe
ket and read them to the board and
moved that they be appointed judges
and clerks of the several precincts re-
spectively. Most of the names We're
new ones and practically all of the old
judges and clerks We're left off and
for the most part people presumed to
be friends of the old gang were sub
stituted. However, this is not the
case in many instances, but it is true
as far as it were possible to make it
so. Com. Ibsen seconded the motion
and the appointments were carried un-
animously. 1t has usually been the
custom to have the Clerk & Recorder
prepare the list Of names for Judges
and clerks anG that office had pre-
pared them up until this occasion.
In many of the precincts it was i'm
possible to get anyone else but leag-
uers on the election Boards and of
course Matkins and his crowd did not
win anything by the changes that they
made. The law provides that all
parties as far as possible be repre-
sented on the election board but
whether the law has been complied
with or not, is not known, but the
names will be checked up and NE
truth discovered in the immediate fut-
ure. Because Of the changes in some
places it will be necessary for the
farmers to put watchers at the polls
to see that the tricks pulled during
the Redmond administration are not
repeated.
When Matkins was reading his
hand picked lists and came to the
Dagmar lists, Com. Ibsen looked up
with sheepish grin and said, Fred
must have helped you select that list
last night. Nobody answered and
Jens just smiled some more and looked
funny.
