REPUBLICANS FOR
REPUBLICANS
e. ID. Koontz

In every State the "Demmies"
howl to sHelp a Native Son."
If Republicans loaf upon the job a
victory might be won,
For President most Democrats will
always vote it straight, Is
They try to catch Republicans on
different kind of bait,
You're the very best Of fellows, II
for their man you'll vote.
But-After the election you find that
you're goat,
Go stand upon the side-line and
watch the crowds go by,
With whoop and shout and hurrah
from the Democratic guy,
It's a very pleasant thing when you
hear their rooster crow,
To know your vote has helped to make
that Democratic show,
Voters don't forget the fact, it's
the Presidential year,
And if you do your party's part there
is not a thing to fear,
In East and West and North and
South, we have our millions strong,
Don't stay at home but come and vote
and help the cause along,
Our leader silent, same and safe
Statesman tried and true,
He's knocking out the knockers, there
are only just few,
And when elections over you can
stand among the throng,
That celebrating victory For you
helped the cause along.
The Democrats are bowling with
the rottenest sort of stuff
1 If you'll only check them up, you'll
find it's MOSTLY bluff,
For if your party's half as bad as
Democrats will tell,
You're not half good enough to vote
Too bad for even hell,
Don't listen to their argument about
that "Native Son."
It's the thinnest sort of camofloug'
by politicians spun.
4 CAST YOUR VOTE FOR COOL
IDGE WHOSE SILENCE MEANS
FAR MORE,

Paul M. Warburg is quoted as say

stopped sliding down hill, and begun
to recuperate. Cheering intelligence
conveyed in mixed metaphor.
The statement that the Van Swer-
ingens, the youthful railroad mag
nets, achieved their success by luck,
only recalls Napoleon's saying that
successful strategy consists in TAX
ing an intelligent advantage OF luck.
Bill Jinkins says he's lost faith in

THIRTY PERCENT TAX IN
CREASE PLANNED?

Aeitators for the Socialist-Thlrd
Party rushing about the country
screaming for government ownership
of railroads, would be run out OF the
apricultural counties if the farmers
would but realize how directly their
creased by the government taking
state and county taxes would be in
over the railroad.
The railroads, owned by the govern
ment could not be taxed by the indl-
vidual states. In agricultural states
and counties an enormous share OF
the tax burden is carried by the rail-
roads, which WOULD otherwise de-
volve upon the farmers.
Take the case of Porter County, In
diana. The total tax paid there last
year was 1884, 40. And of this a
mount, the railroads paid $493, 1926
more than a third. If the govern
ment owned the railroads, the farm
ers of Porter County would be pay
ing an additional half million dollars
in taxes-snd that is only in one
county.
If these few bare facts were real
lied by the farmers, it should be suf-
ficient in itself to eliminate from con-
sideration forever any candidate fol
anything running on government
railroad ownership platform.
