Pictures Change Politics.
A story is told on Mont Robb, who
put in a good deal of time last week
framing some pictures. which he priz
ed highly and when they were taken
home and unwrapped, one of the ones
which he had prized so highly, turned
out to be the late candidate for the
presidency on the democratic ticket,
James M. Cox. Just how the wrap
ping up of the picture and taking it
home changed it from a republican
to a democrat, he does not under
