Miss Hitomi said her family had cried

team prepared to take the field for the

France was leading, two matches TO one,
and had only to see Cochet defeat TIL

Both Tilden and Cochet were tired
from their exertions in yesterdays
doubles matches, in which they played
leading rolls, while Frank Hunter and
Jean Borotra were more or less mere
figures to the drama. Tilden required
much time to recuperate from the

ELECTION IRREGULARITIES

That IRREGULARITIES existed in elections in Sheridan coun-
ty the past few years has been quite generally admitted, but
never has it been brought so openly to the attention OF Plen-
tvwood citizens as occurred last week, when Walter Currie,
who carried and exhibited credentials as a walking dele
gate" of the Industrial Workers of the World, hailing from
Baltimore, Maryland, and lately of Minot, drifted into town
the other day, and upon being apprehended tor drunkenness
and vaorancv. requested to be taken to the office OF the
clerk and recorder in order that he could register to vote at
the coming election this fall. Currie stated that he wanted
to register so he could vote for Salisbury for sheriff. he
had never resided here and evidently had no desire OF estab-
fishing residence here except to help out in election:
Currie was sentenced to thirty days in the city Jail, which
sentence was suspended on his agreement to leave the city
and not return. This did not seem to suit his convenience,
however. and the following day he was again arrested on the
same charge, this time being given another thirty days, which
together with the reinstated sentence of he day before, plac-
ed him in the city Jail to accept the hospitality OF the city
officers fl a period of sixty days. However. the city OF
ficials were again prevailed upon in Curries behalf, and ne
was pardoned, leaving the country Immediately.
Previous to Curries release another walking delegate
of the w. WIS came to police headquarters and admitted
that Currie had been saying too much, and IT the city
would only release him they would see that he got out and
stayed out.
According to reports Sheriff Salisbury went to Currie
after he had been locked up, and prevailed upon the de-
PENDANT to sign an affidavit that he (Currie) did not know
Salisbury and had not made the statement that he intended
to vote for the sheriff this fall. Currie, of course, signed
the affidavit. But if he was willing to perjure himself by
swearing that he was qualified to vote here, what would
prevent him from following the same tactics IN signing an
affidavit for the protection of Salisbury Surely his self
honor would be no stumbling block for such actions, and
an affidavit signed by such a man would not be worth the
paper it was written on.

trary had prevented it from becom-
ing effective and considered il wrong?
As stated we recently have made
an Investigation. w have searched
documentary records and evidence
and have interviewed many promi-
nent Americans from various sec
tions of the United States who have
been in position to know some of the
actual facts. The conclusions we ar
rived at are;
l. Herbert Hoover, from the stand
point of character, education, train
ing and demonstrated ability meas
ures up to the full stature of Presi-
dent of the United States and is bet
ter qualified for that position than
Alfred Emanuel Smith.
2. Herbert, Hoover, a great hum
unitarian, with the welfare of all the
people of the United States at heart,
with his demonstrated administrative
and executive ability is best qualified
to solve all domestic problems that
so greatly affect the welfare of the
American people.
3. New problems and forces oper-
ate today in the relations of Amer
lea with the rest of the world. In
creased world markets mean pros
perity and they must be developed.
Business, transportation and COM
munication of today bring US into
more direct contact with foreign
countries. Herbert Hoover has great
er knowledge and experience with
foreign conditions, methods and dip
lomacy than Alfred Emanuel Smith
or any other American statesman.
He can develop and take care of AM
erica's interests. He is not the type
of statesman that can be tricked,
duped or bested by foreign methods
or diplomacy and will serve and pro-
tect American interests.
4. Herbert Hoover is not prohibit
ish, anti-German Or anything but
pro-American.
5. Herbert Hover during his food
administration was not anti German
and did not tell starving German
women and children to go to hell.
6. Herbert Hoover is not respon-
sible for or in favor of the so-called
National Origins Act, but prevented
it from becoming operative and con-
siders it wrong.
