[ DON’T MISS IT-JOIN THE MODERN BROTHERHOOD of AMERICA
Friends, in coming: here as the representative of the MODERN BROTHERHOOD OF AMERICA, we confess
and we recogniza that Jesus of Naz treth was the foremost statesman and liberator of his generation, when he pro-
claimed that the highest and greatest commandment of Deity was not to be observed in offering sacrifices and per-
petuating burning altars, not to be observed in rude professions and empty, idolatrous formalities, but that his high-
est commandment could only be consummated in loving your neighbor as you love yourself. Coming here, w‛e de-
clarethe new religion so happily formulated in the language of Joaquin Miller, when he said:

We come here recognizing that we are not the only star in th? fraternal firmament, as there ar others. We
come not as a rival, but as a co-laborer in the w vys and meats of providing an education and food and raiment for
the humblest laborer in the land and providing equality and liberty tor every man, woman anti child.
Fiiends, man’s responsibility don’t cease to his family after his demise from this earth, as God gave him the
nans and a way to provide for them after he has departed this life. The M. B. of Ar offers you a way whereby you
an provide for them far years after you have departed this life. So, friends, I spak to you thus: Take out a policy,
pd take it out with us, for there is nothing surer than the M. B. of A.

victions being 83 and 3-7 of all
cases where verdicts were
rendered. • .
After Mr. Beavers’ annouce-
ment for Congress, petitions of
endorsements were sent into
several different com mantles in
Wood county. Here is the re-
sult:
The petitions were presented
to 421 voters; were signed by
897, leaving only 24 out of the
421 that did not sign, with five of
the 24 who refused to, sign
stating that they would vote for
him when the election came on,
but had made it a practice not to
sign endorsements or obligations.
These petitions or endorsements
were not circulated or any
special effort made to get a
large number of signers, but
were for the purpose of testing
the per cent who approved or
endorsed his candidacy for
Congress, in Wood county, and
they were only presented to
and signed by qualified voters.
