Additional Comments:
 
Notes:  

LAKIN name unclear, possibly Elton LAKIN.  

The editor of the GRAPHIC seems to have republished this notice and has written 
numerous comments over several months about Lee MONROE and included  
transcriptions of letters (sent and received) and brochures from Lee MONROE in 
WaKeeney and the commissioner in Washington, D. C. relating to the notices 
being withheld, misdirected to other newspapers.  The GRAPHIC was not sent 
these items to publish.  Personal politics of Mr. MONROE was offered by the 
editor of the GRAPHIC as the reason.  This notice reprinted from the Winona 
Clipper is the first such notice printed in the GRAPHIC since before the 1890 
elections.
