If the period for filing nominations
for the city primary had been only a
week longer, the other five thousand
citizens might have been persuaded
to run. - However, the record is very
ood considering the ten-day limit.
Advice is comparatively inexpen
sive, and political advice especially so.
When it comes from the man who
has an axe to grind, it is worth even
less than it costs.
With a (rood field ami a fair
the voters will do the weeding out.
Their judgment is usually pretty good,
and even if it isn't nothing can be
done about it.
The fact that a man Is not rich
enough to own scads of city property
Is not a valid argument against him.
There is no property qualification for
voting, and there should be none for
holding office.
The cautious editor, not desiring to
offend the touchy among his readers,
printed it this way: " 'John, you d
f said Joe, 'see what you got me
into.' " The strain of trying to figure
out what those censored words stand
for may lose him hundreds of sub
scribers. The Office Test, who likes
his movies undiluted, says the letters
stand for "dangerous fanatic."
r . f .i . .
i une oi me worst insinunaiions
against us is made by Ole Buck, who
tells the following wicked lie with a
straight face:
"Alliance is going to put slot ma
chines and poker parties out of busi
ness. First thing they know the town
will become so tame the Burr boys
won't stay there."
Favorite fiction: "Now, speaking in
the interest of the public "
Referring to the decision of the
Scottsbluir chamber of commerce not
to attempt to build a packing plant
this year, the Rushville Standard in
sinuates that those hard-headed men
have more sense than dollars.
Here's a surprising thing. The Pot
ter basketball team lost a game, and
they didn't pull a single excuse. They
didn't even say that it was the referee's
fault. And the Review adds this suc
cinct statement: "Good sportsmanship
has no alibi."
We don't quite understand what Ole
Buck means when he tells about some
brother who, after reading the corset
ads in a couple of women's magazines,
declares that he is now quite certain
that stockings will never come down.
