LOWDEN DECLARED HOPE OF REPUBLICANS Despite the contention of the Hoover propagandists, to the contrary, notwithstanding, the progress of the race by Governor Frank O. Lowden for the republican presidential nomination at the oncoming national conven tion to be held in Kansas City in June is entirely satisfac tory to his backers and campaign managers, says National Farm News. Optimism reigns supreme in the Lowden camp fol lowing his sensational victory in Illinois, when the repub lican state convention instructed its entire delegation— 61 strong, to vote for Frank O. Lowden at Kansas City. “Recognition of the farm question is going to be the underlying factor in the coming 1928 campaign,’’ in the opinion of Rep. L. J. Dickinson of Iowra. “In my judg ment,” he declared last week, “this is resulting in a large number of uninstructed delegates from various states, with the purpose of being prepared to meet the situation that will confront the convention.” “It is conceded,” he continued, “that A1 Smith, with a national reputation as the friend of the common man, is going to be the democratic nominee. The republican nomination, therefore, must be made with a view of meet ing this situation. I am still convinced that Governor Lowden is the outstanding national figure to meet the situation as far as the republican party is concerned.” ----------- 0 O 0 ----------- CO-OPERATIVE MARKETING PAYS THE YEARLY SLAUGHTER Mail Order Competition In spite of warnings and pleadings by the press and safety organizations, the unending slaughter of human beings in highway accidents shows no indication of being diminished. Figures compiled by the American Road Builders’ association, made public recently, show that during the year 1927 in the United States there were 26,818 killed and 798,700 seriously injured on the streets and highways of the country. The number killed was greater than that enrolled in the entire regular army of the United States in 1897. Suppose that during that year every officer and soldier had been killed. The tragedy would have shocked the nation. Yet little attention is paid to an even greater tragedy in 1927. Suppose that every man, woman and child in the city of Boston were either killed or seriously injured. It would be a less disaster than befell the coun try as a whole from highway accidents alone last year, and, so far as can be judged, less than will occur during 1928 and each year in the future. While many accidents are seemingly unavoidable, the great majority of them are due to plain carelessness or foolhardiness. And it seems impossible to keep a fool away from a steering wheel. ----------- oOo------------ * When you have that mail order all made out, and you are going to send away that money that you will never see again, bring that list into us and wye will meet any of their prices.

Comedy, “What Even7 Iceman Knows.” Also a special added attraction Friday night AN EXAMPLE FOR OTHER SCHOOL BOARDS Over at Sandy last wreek a meeting of several school boards was held for the purpose of discussing matters of vital importance to all school directors and districts. It is a fine idea, and one that should be carried out by the school boards throughout the county. As a rule the mem bers of the boards selected to manage the schools are chosen without much consideration and it often happens that they know7 little about the management of the insti tutions under their direction. A school for school boards probably would not be popular w'ith the average member, but get-togther meet ings such as that held at Sandy certainly w7ould do no damage and would be a great benefit to those who are really interested in fulfilling the duties of their office in the best pssible manner. ----------- oOo------------ The news wonders if the editorial writer for the Portland Telegram gets his ideas from pictures of prize fighters shadow-boxing. ----------- oOo------------ There may be some who can see no good in baseball, but as a means of developing community spirit, it has no equal in this section of the country. only, Quby Bros.
