For aldermep: E. W. Blythe, C. H. Klueppelberg, Henry Ranson, '3rady Kilpatrick, Clyde Ashworth. A VOTER. ANOTHER SUGGESTED TICKET: drinking produce a state of mind that says, /'What is the law to us? We shall obey it or not as we please**, it needs no aiggument to prove that these classes are enemies to society. They are in the class with Debs, and Tucker, who refusing to obey laws of which they disapproved, were sen tenced to the penitentiary. Even those who think their person al rights invaded by the Volstead law, must hesitate to admit that per sonal dislike for a law, excuses one frdm obeying it. No one can suppose himself at lib erty to pick and choose which laws he will keep and which he will break, without Blowing the same right to everyone else.
