Jasper County Democrat, Volume 17, Number 51, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 October 1914 — Political Notes. [ARTICLE]
Political Notes.
Thomas F. Maloney of Kankakee tp., the democratic candidate for county clerk, has ordered a new Buick automobile and expects to get out over the county to see the voters as soon as his new machine arrives. —:O: Be sure and come out and register next Monday, Oct. 5. Unless you do so you cannot vote at the election on Nov. 3. The places of registration in the different precincts of the county appear on page two of The Democrat. Appellate Judge Milton B. Hottell of Salem, who is a candidate for re-election on the democratic state ticket, was in Rensselaer Thursday and made some remarks before the meeting of the county central committee. “Boss” Murphy was also here. Do not move from one precinct to another after today. If you do you will lose your vote Nov. 3, as to be a legal voter one must have been a resident of the state six months, of the county 60 days and of the voting precinct 30 days, and also must have registered as required by law. Hon. Patrick Hayes and a Mr. Friday came over from Idaville Thursday morning via auto to attend the meeting of the democratic county' central committee and candidates. Mr. Hayes is the democratic nominee for re-election for joint-repre-sentatve of Jasper and White counties, and will not only' receive the democratic vote almost to a unit, but will also get hundreds of republican and Bull Moose votes, for his record in the last session of the legislature was especially pleasing to men of all parties who stand for beneficial and economical legislation. We need more men like Mr. Hayes down there, and if we had only have had them there last session the democrats might now point with pride and view less with alarm the record made by that legislature. Mr. Hayes will return here at some later date and try to meet most of the voters of Jasper county before election day.
