Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 59, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 November 1910 — CONSCIENTIOUS VOTERS. [ARTICLE]

CONSCIENTIOUS VOTERS.

To conscientious republican and democratic voters who do not want to perpetuate the liquor traffic. I suggest that you get together and “pair” and vote the prohibition ticket. This would not effect the result between the old parties and would increase the prohibition vote, and the only thing that will put down and keep down the liquor traffic is a majority of prohibition votes, Yours for a pure, peaceable, sober conmmunity.— A. G. W. Farmer. A carload of nice Winesap eating and cooking apples, $3.50 a >arrel; $1.25 a bushel; 35c a peck, at — John Eger’s. We will unload two cars of fancy Michigan sand grown potatoes this week. 60c a bushel in bulk from cars.-r-Jofin Eger’s. Miss Katharine Luers who has been employed in the law office of Geo. Williams for some time as stenographer, is now employed in the office of Dunlap & Parkison.

The report has been circulated in certain quarters that if Felix R. Erwin is ejected clerk fre will not give the office his personal attention. This report is wholly false. If elected Mr. Erwin will move to Rensselaer and take sole charge of the office and give it his entire attention, and he will make one of the most competent and popular clerks Jasper county ever had. If there is any taxpayer in Jasper county who believes the county got 140 fool of extension —for which it paid five, years ago —oh the Burk’s bridge, let him take a tape line and go out to the bridge and measure it from the point where the old gravel approach appears, to the south endt and he will soon have his mind disabused. Take nobody's word for it. Go measure it and see for yourself. Perhaps one of the largest and m ; °st enjoyable “hen” parties ever given on hallowe’en in Rensselaer was given by Mrs. C A. Roberts Monday* night. The ladies were dressed in fantastic costumes of all kinds. There were “preachers.” “hunters,” "Little teva’s.” “football players.” “Militiamen,” “The Golddust Twins,” “dudes,” and “tramps,” and numerous other characters. Charley took a hike when the guests began to arrive but Uncle Simon was able to stand it and seemed to enjoy the freakish apof the guests as much as anybody.
