Some one who should know better
has circulated the report that as two
candidates are to be nominated for
each Office at the primaries, the voter
is allowed to vote for two. Whether
this misleading information is being
circulated with the intention of
making votes for somebody or just
from sheer ignorance, we are not pre-
pared to say. To vote for two for the
same Office, except for members of the
Legislature, will only invalidate your
only harm yourself inasmuch as it will
be evidence that you should not have
the franchise of the ballot. We un-
derstand this was brought cut in the
county commissioner race now on.
Vote for the man of your choice-only
one-for each Office to be filled

Some interesting facts were short
time ago brought out by Merle Thorpe,
editor of Nations Business. He showed
that the laboring man was hit in taxes
one days labor out of each week. We
earn Is billion dollars a year and the
tax bill is Is billions-over thirds
He also showed that out of every IL
persons working one is public en-
ploye. Only few years ago the ratio
was one out of %. If this continues
at the same pace soon one person out
of every five will be living off the bal
ance of U.S. Just take your pencil and
run over the situation in your own
city. We here are conservative at that.

Next Monday will witness the close
of a bitter primary campaign on the
part of several of the candidates for
offices to be filled. So bitter has the
campaign become in some quarters
that it would be no wonder if some OF
the voters would take each side at
its word and refuse to vote for either
of them If both sides are right, they
are both wrong and not ft subjects to
place in office If the parties to the
controversial campaigns being waged
are telling the truth about each other,
why perpetuate the dishonor and cor
ruption claimed by electing them to a
public office?
This does not apply to any particu-
lar candidate but to all those who are
making their campaigns with a slop
bucket and whitewaSh brush and mes
sing I'D columns of newspaper adver-
Using space and clean white paper in
peddling the dirt about their oppon-
ents. This class of campaigning is not
so noticeable in country districts or
local scraps but the higher-ups are
indulging in the "billingsgate OF the
housewives" in speaking of one another
Charges are being promiscously hurled
about especially during the last few
days of the campaign, too late Tor
either side to square themselves. The
senatorial fight has developed some
exceptional dirty dirt.
Many of the Misrepresentation being
hawked about have been proven un-
true. Notwithstanding, these state
ments are being hashed and rehashed
by those who will do anything during
political years to further their In
dividual or their candidates interests.
Some seem to think this Is good poll
tics and we are sorry to say, there are
those who like that kind Of stuff.
There is a difference between poll
tician and a statesman. Some on the
ticket are politicians who want the
place for the salary and there are
others who are statesmen and want to
be of some use to the country. The
records of all are as an open book and
should be looked over before the voter
Joins the whitewashing or the befouling
gang. Before every election the cry
is "cIean politics" When the voting
day rolls around the same old stuff Is
used and the voter feels that he Is
being used as catspaw to pull poll
ticaI chestnuts from the fire.

so of a shape" He contends that
Madame could as well visit his
palace because it is not nice for
kings to jump out of third story
windows. Groucho has plenty to
do but he is letting Chico and Harpo
do more than usual.
I think that Harpo Marx has one
of the funniest entrances in the

stage. Not saying a word, he pulls
off his dress coat and stands in his

transformation is such a shock that
he picks up a gun and starts shoot
ing everything in the place.
Harpo plays the harp but he seems
to devote more time to getting
comedy out of the piano, following
some interesting playing by Chico.
Harpo is much more serious with
his harp this season, playing only
two numbers although the audi
ence as usual demands much more.
It is a wise Snowman who knows
when to stop 1t is wise to leave
the audience wanting more and
Harpo does that this season. For a
background in one number he has

Chico has a funny scene with
Groucho in which they decide to
locate a stolen painting by building
a house next door and finding the
painting there. Here is wild fun but
good.
1 believe that if there was any
more comedy in this show, many of
us would not have been able to last
out the performance. I think that
the comedy has been better grouped
