low and the Anaconda Copper Mining company, IN connection with
political matters, do so, not to court sympathy, put 10 snow What
lengths the copper company's political machine and its banker satelL

When you go to the polls remember to what lengths ne Anaconda
Upper Mining company's political activities go. a illustrated m

ington D Rankin. a man who is competent fearless honest ne-
pendent.
