\roter , that letter froiii C. H. Corj j
nell landing Pres.Eooseveltn.ncl ap
pealing h'nnlly for you to vote for
Kincaid , and gotten out iu the last
round is like a dying man grasping
for ( u straw. Moutbless and stom-
achless Moses will be defeated and
should be. Because Boosevelt
N
brought about a temporary ending
Ihe'coal strike just before election
a pretty good sign that the terms
will not be lived up to after the elec
tion. It's the Savage and Hartley
deal over again just'o gut a few
more votes for the republican party ,
The news of the settlement ! h of
the : coal strike W&D flashed all over
the country to every ready print
house and-was ehoved in last week
order that everybody might
learn of it just before election. D. )
not be deceived by these overtures
to ( get your vote. We cant ! control
the ready print houses andveuon't
think the voters will take any more
stock in this "before election Fettle-
rmnt" than they ought to have tak *
en in the republicans sending Bart-
ley back to the pen before election.
Already there is great dissatisfac
tion among the miners. Let ua
A-ole for Qen. Barry and _ fata no
changes with the republican party.
