Ou account of not being able to get the use of Election school house, in Precinct Middle Monroe, the voters of that precinct will vote at Berne and I Monroe, as heretofore at primary elections, the north half voting at the town of Monroe, the south half voting at the city of Berne. J. W. BOSSE, ‘ >e 1 County Chairman. President Wilson today delivered! hi? ■ second message to congress. As be- 1 fore, he appeared personally and gave j the message to the law-makers, and it ! must have been a most impressive j scene. And the message—it is clean | cut and entirely new—not one of tbe old “cut an<J dried" efforts that no ‘ < body reads. It is of the twentieth cen- , tury and is told in language that makes you take an interest' whether you want to or not. He han- 1 dies the Mexican situation, pavs considerable attention to the proposed currency legislation and especially to < the benefits to be derived by the farm I ! I <. er and small business man, advocates ‘ the building of a railway line that will ‘ , open the rich coal and gold fields of t Alaska and make that territory on? of, the most valuable of United States I possessions. It is the message of a ' i great president and we hope every reader will study it and discuss it. His theory for the election of president bv | t a direct primary, the nomination to be I * ratified at a convention composed ofi * ( the law-makers and committeemen, the men who must make the laws, and they to write their own platform-, is 11 u new departure and one that wils I 1 probably cause much discussion, but j 1 the more you study over it. the wore; J you will favor such a mode of election. The men who are to be heW responsible should make the platform 1 on which they stand. NOTICE. Saturday, December 6. ' 1913, is the last day to pay 1 for your Christmas Savings Club and get interest, so all , parties who have cards give this your attention. OLD ADAMS CO. RANK
