Stub Pencils
Are the Keys
TO Pen Cells

The votes in tomorrow's pri-
maries will be counted.
If they are not, there will be
a lot of the boys who are expert
with stub pencils on vacation
at Leavenworth and Atlanta
and Michigan City.
The Times has decided that it
is time to end the political pre-
dictions that are always fin
ished with, eff they count the
votes.
The politicians and the peo-
pie have come to expect fraud
at the polls. They have every
reason to expect it.
The election boards III many
Of the precincts have been filed
by Boss Coffin with the boys
who might be expected to per-
petrate frauds. On no other
theory than that fraud is de-
sired could many Of these ap-
pointments be explained.
The Times, just as a friendly
hint to these boys who are so
brazen, and who may not yet
know that a new day has ar
rived, suggests that those who
have orders to steal look over
the records Of the last year.
They will discover that Th>
Times has batted about 100 per
cent in getting crooks.
The Times, of course, needs
help. 1t has some forces at
work. 1t wants the aid of all
honest voters.
If you notice any signs Of
fraud, any repeating, any eff
fort to steal votes, call Main
$500 and ask for the editor.
An honest election is more
important than victory. The
old anarchy of fraud must be
ended.
Boys with stub pencils will
find that they really are carry
ing keys to prison cells.
