Henry Ford, tho man who lends
Cummins In tho vote for presidential
preference among tho republican vo
ters of Nebraska, announced in New
York Sunday that ho would accept
a nomination for tho presidency "If
Ilio people want mo.
"One thing I nm absoluto sure of
In this respect," declared Mr. Ford,
and that Is I shall, not flnanco any
third party not with ono cent. Should
It bo made evident that I am wanted,
that 13 n different matter."
Mr. Ford expressed tho opinion
that tho office should bcoIc tho man
"rather than that tho man should seek
tho office.
"I nm not a candidate for tho pres
idential nomination," ho added. "I can
not regard mysolf In such a light. I
regard It as- a joko only. It Is a vory
serious question as to who tho joko
is on.'
Referring to tho recent primary
elections In tho middle west at which
ho was endorsed by tho republican vo
tors as their preference, for tho nrosl
dontlal nomination, Mr. Ford said tho
rosult was significant of what the
people In that section of tho country
tho people who rniso tho stuff that
feeds tho country think of militar
ism."
The circus Is comln' to town, to
town. Yes, slree.
And within tho next few days, a
gaily decorated car will roll Into
town, and tho army of advortlslng men
that go along with it will scatter and
post flaming pictures of lions and
tigers, elephants and camels, and
ponies, and parades, and all the thing-,
that mako ono wish tho day would
hurry up and get here.
And which ono Is It? Why, tho Al.
G. Barnes big four ring wild animal
circus, of course, and its going to bo
hero Thursday, May 18th.
So says Murray A. Pennock, general
contracting agent who was here yes
terday arranging the preliminaries. A
busy man, Is this circus agent for
upon him falls tho task of making con
tracts for tho licenses, the show
grounds, space on the billboards 'for
tho circus pictures, water and feed for
the animals, and food for tho bIiqw
family of five hundred people. Livery
rigs must be engaged to take tho
bill posters out into the country and
last but not least, calls on the news
paper boys and says "howdy."
"When tho show comes this year,
we believe wc will show you more
now, novel, sensational, thrilling and
amusing feats than you over saw un-j
der.a canvas In your life. The whole ,
program was made over this seacon ,
Its entirely different. Educated anl-t
mals give tho performance we're still
a wild animal circus, the largest of
that character in the world. ,
"Lions, tigers and bears do tho
"thrillers" on tho program, great
groups of them 30 full grown African
Hons being performed in one act.
You'll shiver when you see the peril
of the ono trainer who- mingles with
this bunch of mnn-caters.
