Vote nothini? but a straight nonpartisan democratic ticket. Twenty nine ties, all in two years, all made by a non-partisan republican council. The way to queer this is to vote the straight democratic ticket Tuesday. Ves Peterson feels rightfully slighted because his name was yesterday orni'ed from our column*. He claims to be still running and that he does not expect to finish lower than fourth place. His nerve is something awful. Do n< tbe worked on this nonpartisan issue that is being worked for campaign purposes only. It sounds good but as practiced by a republican it only counts one way | Profit by experience and vote the democratic ticket straight. The election Tuesday should register the opinion of the public upon the question of a council who have got the required backbone to transact the business of the city. In other words it should be a condem- i nation of fostering ties upon nearly j all questions except when the appointment for a republican is before , them. T.ie four republican candidates for council should make this campaign run on their record. A record of twenty nine ties. A tie on every important proposition before them, unless it was the appointment of a republican to office, and then they agreed as they always agree. Isn't that a great record to expect democrats to support.

AT OUR Spring Opening OF Buggies Carriages Harness Implements AND Bicycles

These goods will be GIVEN AWAY absolutely FREE on Friday and Saturday. We will make SPECIAL PRICES in every line on these days. We will show the greatest line of Buggies, Carriages, Harness. Implements and Bicycles ever displayed in Northern Indiana.

Make it a good rousing democratic 1 victory. Something to crow about. Do not be mislead by any fairy tales. Advantage will be taken during tne last few days to star 1 ’ “hot air” stories, but. be wise enough to investigate everything about wh'ch you are in doubt. As it now stands every democrat will be elected. A council of non-partisan democrats would not have appointed six non-partisian republican election inspectors. They would not have made a record of twenty nine ties in order to shift official responsibility to th< shoulders of others. The way to prove this is to give them a trial next Tuesday, by voting the straight democratic ticket. It is now conceded that Horace Porter was defeated two year ago by a mean, contemptible political trick. It is now conceded that he never said one dollar a day was enough for a laboring man. His election a’t this time will be a merited vindication and at the same time will place a champion of labor in the city council.
