Show POLITICS IS 8 ADJOURNED By M. M M. M Smith The above declaration was uttered uttered utter utter- ed by our beloved p president ident somo some months ago o while pleading there should be but one Issue before the American people during the war war and that is hOw to Win the w war war- warTh r Th I spirit spin hould be carried out from the highest to the lowest position to be tilled in is the land this fall Call I am m known as tie a strict partisan I and enjoy a 0 hot hof election campaign i also my party i. i is now in the ascendancy ascend ascend- f. f ancy and may be said sold to hold the o j upper hand haud both nationally and loo loti lo lo- lo I ti cally sally If Ie put pat to the test teat I 1 have no fl doubt as to the result I But what It Why be e a a. a hog bog when posing as a human Would such Eruch success contribute to win the tile war war No No party holds a monopoly on patriotism We Ve must give e our adversaries credit for being just as patriotic and just as sincere and untiring in their labors as ourselves our our- selves Not ot that a local defeat would cool their ardor for Cor they are cheerful cheer cheer- tul ful losers The point that I wish to make is this Political campaigns are expensive expensive ex expensive ex- ex pensive they cost money time shoe leather energy and friction all of or which should be diverted into war channels In submitting the following following following follow follow- ing plan I am trying o 0 prevent that waste without interfering In n the harmony harmony harmony har har- mony and progress of the work alread already al already al- al read ready being done There are other ways to than saving BaYing food tood Here Is my plan Let the two dominant dominant dom- dom parties get together The U third rd party is prohibited by its own plat- plat orni to cooperate with any other political po- po party If It the two county chairmen n happen happen happen hap hap- pen to meet they are aro not nol liable to prosecution When the central committees committees com corn meet as usual to fix fiz date dite of the he convention they should call it at the same time Ume and town as 88 that orthe of or the he other though In a separate hall When the primary caucuses are held in the several precincts a reso reso- lution should l be pas passed a 00 instructing th the delegation to work and vote in favor of ot placing but one ticket et inthe Inthe In Inthe the field for the fall faU election After Atter both county conventions have adopted the one ticket resolution resolution tion a conference or fusion committee committee committee com com- of t five Oe should be selected from each convention f Give them two hours in which to deliberate as to division of ot spoils apolla There are ton places to be tilled filled on the ticket as follows One commissioner com com- missioner 4 years one commission commission- er or 2 years one clerk one treasurer one ono r recorder order one sheriff one representative representative representative one attorney one assessor and one surveyor Of Ot course either party part would be bo too loo modest to ask the first Drat half halt of or orthe the ticket They could choose an office orfice of or- fice rice turn turn about taking five each cach Meantime the two conventions have taken a recess and met mot in joint session as a smoker indulging Indulging- In III spread eagle oratory toasts soft sort drinks and cigars Ways and means of or meeting the tiro fourth liberty loan ire are discussed The conference committee being r ready ady to report each convention reconvenes In its own hall upon the adoption of ot said report they proceed proceed pro pro- need to nominate their quota of ot can can- Upon learning the names of candidates selected by the other convention they thoy proceed to ratify or nominate them also There allten all allten allten ten of tine the candidates will appear on both the Republican and Democratic tickets Another advantage this plan holds out is s that it may be necessary to rumage through both parties to find Ond timber to fill these theBe ten peg holes bolos Out of or the tho old bunch but two will accept Four have resigned resigned resigned
