Pap
Iitirintr the past two or three
we.'ks the Mist has received col
limns and columns of plate mat
ter ( onccrninir certain candidates
fur oilice and meiiHures to 1h vot
ed on. They are fent us with a
reipiest to use them but in no in
stance has there lccn any th.'vks
for payment enclosed. As a re
bnlt none of them y.o in the paper.
Our coliimns nro our stork in
trade. If any candidate wants
to buy spuce in tno patn'r. it is
for sale, hut we are not ninr.ini;
a charity proposition and abso
lutely refuse to publish anything
alnnit any candidates or measur
es unless paid for, outside of our
editorial columns. We have tak
en a political stand on a khm1
many of th measures and can
didates and our renders no doubt
know just what we are advocat
ing along these lines. In order
to he specific on our choice of
candidates for the leading ull'icrs
we make this announcement.
U e are heartily in favor of tht
election of Taft and .Sherman for
President and Vice President,
for reasons elsewhe re and here
tofore given. We are in favor
or the election Ken fuelling n r
Cnited Slates Senator for a gw d
many reasons. lie iaand .luuyK
has been a real Progressive when
others, who are now claiming to
be the simon pure article along
this line, only adopted Progress
ive principles for the purpose of
feathering their own nests. lie
is capable and honest. lie has
Inert tried and found not want
ing. He went before the people
at the Primaries and won out in
a fair tight and is entitled to the
upMrl or every man who is a
Hi publican because he believes
in the Republican principles. We
are in favor of the election of
W. C. Haw ley for Congressman
for several reasons. The first
reason being that he is the only
man nominated on any ticket
who is capable of filling the oilice.
tin' others being strange, untried
mrii with no other recommenda
tion thnn that they want the
oll'u-e. Again, Mr. Hawiey has
been in Congress for tix jears

Why not have your house wired for electric lights? It
is to your interest, not only for your own convenience
but for protection from fire. Over ten per cent of the
fires in dwellings last year in the U.S. were caused by
kerosene lamps and two per cent from electric wires.

reason why he should not he re
turned and there seems to he no
doubt of his election. We ure in
favor of the election of Clyde 15.
Aitchison for Iiailroad Commiss
ioner for reasons explained in an
other column in this issue and
because, after carefully consider
ing the qualifications of all the
candidates for this important
office, Mr. Aitchison seems to be
the only one who is especially
qualified from experience and
ability to perform the duties of
the office. We are in favor of
the election of E. Ii. Tongue for
District Attorney of this district
for every reason there is to be
Howard Taft.

No longer are we required to
grope about in the darkness of
uncertainty. The mystery is
solved. Th-3 secret is out. The
reason for the support of Theo

been making a vain search for
thetin reasons and at last have
been rewarded. One of the tnrst
