OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT (Authorized and to be paid for by Andrew Johnson; $15.00 for series.) FAKE SLOGANS BEING CIRCULATED. Two fake slogans are being put in circulation by the Demo- crats in an attempt to influence votes in the November elec- tions. One of these is: “Vote the Democratic ticket and stand by the president.” The other, a more euphonious catchword, “Win with Wilson,” is getting wider circulation. Both campaign cries are fakes, just as the slogan ‘“He kept § us out of War” imposed on part of the electorate in the last presidential campaign. The Democrats, with unexampled effrontery, are trying to “repeat” on their performance of two years ago. The people, however, are aware of the fallacy of this second attempt and will not be imposed upon again by false .or deceptive catchy phrases. ¥ The Democrats, with their new fake slogans, imply that the citizen cannot be patriotic unless he votes for Democratic| Congressional candidates in November, 3 The fact®is, patent to all, that the president has been greatly hampered in his management of the war by the princi- pal leaders of his own party in congress, and the main opposi- tion to his war policies has come from within his own party.
