Election of a city ticket means more
than some wlll admit. A number ar
gue that It will make no difference If
the socialists are elected here, but
those very same- people will find out
If socialism should prevail. It is too
. important to treat lightly, this naming
Ct a city ticket Were La Grande the
Tillage it once wag the effect might not
be so groat but this city has reached
a stage of doing big things. It is the
biggest business Institution here. The
municipal corporation has more
usances for small leaks than any other
business In the city; it requires con
tant attention and , earnest effort to
tiring about good results. Take all of
these matters with you to the polls and
then vote against socialism for It is as
yet unsafe to adopt
No, ou cannot afford to vote the so
cialist ticket. Think it over carefully
Jefore you decide the matter. The rea-
. -ons are many and varied which give
preponderance of evidence why La
Grande must not go socialist. Los An
geles suffered a heavy scare over the
- swlnllt. ad-
jalnlstratlon, but at so time In the
game did the socialists have a ghost
of a chance of carrying that city. The
election returns show that plainly. See
that La Grande casts a proportional
majority against socialism as Los
Angelea did.
The action of the business people of
ij& Grande in passing the resolution
night before last and the action of The
maor in Issuing his proclamation do
Xot mean tiat people are not welcome
Jn La Grande. It means the rverse.
All are" welcome, but the rough stuff
must be cut out once and for all.
