In a state where a reactionary candidate for governor, a believer in privilege, a foe of people’s tule, is running on a ticket with certain progressive candidates for minor offices—the latter merely shells allotted to the liberal wing while the stand- patters keep the oyster—the political organs are tuning up in this wise: “The situation calls for reg _ time has come for a rally in support of the party.” Note it well—“in support of the PARTY”; not “for the welfare of the people.” “For the pay men who believe in the ' 1 &R,, in equal suffrage, in curbing greed, in put- + ting opportunity down from the level of a pet few to came it can be realized by the many, are asked to vote for a governor who is against all these ‘Telegraph News Service of the United Press Association.

Even thi yphenated gue didn’t claim there were actual forgeries on the “Seven Sisters.” Their strongest contention was that some husbands signed their wives’ names. REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS, PROGRESSIVES alike, attended that big meeting In the Hippodrome to endorse the passage of the cur- fency bili which puts a stop to artificial panics. But Congr an * Humphrey of Seattle voted against that bill. Would you voted against it also, Mayor Hi Gill? OF COURSE you are ashamed of Humphrey. There’s pienty of reason.

Can you imagine grown men falling for such bunk? Yet they do, thousands of ‘em, every election day. Chances are you've fallen for it, too, more than once—for all we know, you may be intending to fall for it again next month.
