HE MISSED THE PRIMARY
----
John T. Struble Missed First Election
in Fifty-two Years.

John t. Struble, the well known pioneer of Scott township, missed his first election in fifty-two years when he was not able to attend the primary election held recently. Mr. Struble was stricken with paralysis a year ago and while he has gained a good deal since then he was not at the time of the primary in shape to get out and cast his ballot. Mr. Struble, however, expects to exercise his republicanism in the November election and states that he will cast a ballot for Secretary Wm. H. Taft for president.
