reservations.
"3—Then he said that if he had
to do it over, ^ie would not vote
even for the Lodge reservations.

ate peace with Germany.
"5—Then he accepted the nom-
ination on the platform which said
'the league has signally failed.'
"G—Then he indorsed the re-es-

SCOTT FERRIS, DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE FOR. U. S. SENATOR
Mr. Ferris spoke to a large audience Tuesday night in this city and
made a profound impression with his audience. He is a statesman
who has made good as Congressman in the fourteen years he has ser-
ved in the lower house and will prove his ability again as junior
Senator in the upper house of Congress. There is no question of his
election if the Democratis strength go to the pollss on Next Tuesday
and exercise their soverign rights.
The Democrat is carrying the
county's re-sale tax list as provid-
ed by Act of 1918 Legislature.
1 his is a re-sale of all property
jthat has been sold for taxes since
statehood. Every year a regular
sale is held and generally the pro-
perty is bought in by the county
and now it is proposed to offer to
the highest bidder this property
and a tax deed will be issued by
the county to the purchaser. If
you have a piece of property ad-
vertised in this list it will be to
your interest to settle for seme be-
fore the day of sale as you will not
be allowed to bid on your own pro-
perty and thus it will be sold to
some other party. The sale will
be held on the Fourth Monday in
November, thus you have over 3
weeks to go to the county treasur-
er and settle this matter and get
it straightened out.

LONDON, Oct. 25.—Terence
MacSwiney, lord mayor of Cork,
the most prominent of the Irish
hunger strikers and said to have
been the brains of the republican
army in Ireland, died early today
in Brixton prison.
The end was not unexpected, for
the lord mayor had been uncon-
scious several days. He was en-
tering upon the seventy-fourth day
of his hunger strike as a protest
against a sentence of two years
imprisonment on several charges,
I including one of having seditious
documents in his possession.
Only his brother, John Mac-
| Swin«y, and his private chaplain,
I Father Dominic, were with him
when he died. Mrs. MacSwiney
and MacSwiney's two sisters were
at a nearby hotel.
i The lord mayor who was terri-
bly emaciated as a result of his
long abstinence from food, had
been delirious many hours, and
was unconscious when death
came.
