Look here, Mr. Republican; If you are an admirer of Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Lafollette, Mr. Felk and others who have sought to correct the evils of the body politic—which have become so festooned about our own county government —why not follow the advice of these gentlemen, who say that politics should cut no figure in local affairs? Election is here, and the people are about to perform that duty which alone can preserve the liberties of this country. If this sacred duty be neglected, then it will be but a short time before those blessings of a free government for which our forefathers gave their lives and fortunes, will be sadly absent. A representative government is "just as good as the people will it” and no better. If we want good laws and just legislation, then send only those men to congress and legislature, that are "above suspicion” and free from graft and "trust influence.”
