The railroad administration has an

allows wage . increases for sleeping

the employment of Pullman car at-

As To a Silent Campaign
Mr. Editor:
I have been asked by several peo
ple of late in regard to the campaign
in Randolph, whether or not it should
be "silent" I can only give my views
as an individual. I am opposed to
this and think it is only right for the
good people of Randolph to know the
true situation as it exists today; and
again, I think it the duty of every
Democrat to tell his neighbors of the
unfulfilled promises of the Republican
office seekers in the last campaign.
I Ask your Republican neighbor if the
(present officers are measuring up to
the standards set forth by them two
i years ago. Let us take a look. Are
they building and maintaining the
road system which was in operation
,when they came into possession
Have they issued any bonds without
the vote of the people? Have they
put the county officers on a
saiary
It is up to the voters to see i all
these promises have been earned out.
If not, why not? These are some of
the promises made by the Republican
speakers in the last campaign. Have
they been weighed in the bslances and
found wanting, Or have all these been
kept; We are toivay living under
"efficient" Republican rule. How
mwuw kmo , I'll. VUICI ;
