BOYD. " * " "Ce S** " " "*** " " " " " " " Editor The Advertiser: A regret to be always trespassing on your patience but if you can sparo the space I would like to havo a fcw things to say on the platforms of the candidates for governor. I have had only a few of them yet to study but all that I have seen have one fault and that Is that they are very general. They are not definite enough for me. I have long wondered if the candi date made his platform general just to prevent any one from taking excep tions to what he saidand to catch the vote of the lman who was willing to follow his vague intelinite insinuations without the absolute concrete proof of th titI. ('a1 it he possible that this is the case? It so it is high tilme that we were iaking this type of 1tiani hiint sot'e other way of obtainig a iivli hood. On the other hand is it tiee;. ise he has lot tie absolulte ;rool but knows ienougt to know that the tAIn., is goi-i' on? If Ihis is the c::e is hle (onsist e tly I 'yiig to get more infori ..ion! thwn he has? \\'oubli it not he wise fort him to let thens public se' what he s es and let them hii'l' Iln roudinglii up the wlon doots If he is t rsieing theln a ndi will eventiially caeh' ; them; whIt are his ;clans after h has cawrbi thin? Ilas he any. it' so. 10'11 as wluat they are Or er'ihl:iis lie feels that hie canl not catch thlem anid thinks no oile else can: then has le Some plan that will remedy the evil without lidilig out for certain That the thing is going on? 'Then wlit Is iI? I tor one. like to know what 1 am1 doing whten I do a thing. Now let 'I- propound a f~ew qutestionls for the hledit of thiose who (nye putting forth their platforms at this tilme. Now, some may think Ihat I at at tac"king somie caldidatles herause I ask a few tiuestions about their inlividial platlformis, I dbeny anly suich intentions for some of tIhe men I know personal ly and( do not mean to attack at all. I have not made up imy mind on the candidate I shall favor yet and shall not announ1e it when I do, but merely ask these questions to slow the public what I aol aiming at. Now, for instance, one of the plat fo'miis iadIe some stat em its about tie railroads' influence over the state leg Harvester Oil Engines [FUIL farmers are no longer "Shall I buy an engine?" ssed that point and now in h engine shall I buy?"

Have them ready der working service for ~st and Best" lye Works A;dMd islature. The question with mei is: Wil he give the people the benefit of what he knows on this subject and will that he sufficient to show the people beyond a doubt that the rail roads have a pernicious influence over the legislature? Who of the legisla ture are under the influence of the railroads? Let us know and have a chance to leave those people at home. . Again one of the platforms says something about the cotton mill man and the treatment of the employes. Let hin make this perfectly clear to the people and place the blame and we will be ready to follow in this. Let us not have a misty idea about the matter but have it threshed out from every point of view so that we may know wlat is right. Let us not have a one-sided discussion of the matter all act on anl impression but upon the real conldition. Let the candidate present his charges In lefnilte, unnis tatkable terms and then If the other side has anything to say let them say. Another platform or maybe he same one says that ilense is the lentlet' of the poor people and that all that a1re opposed to himi1 do not desire the wel f::re of the poor or something to that effect. In effe i he says Iilie:ise is the v!f; pion) of tl' poor. 11e seemis to leave the impress i t1hal t ile:::e is being I'e:ielted as a chmpiltlon of the.' people. Now, .\lr. Edtitor, it is not enough Ihat a inan maklle a at mlIenIt like that to satisfy the mind of think ing men. We want some I hinigs that are plainly seen to establih the fact in our minds. If facts enn he bruought to miind that will satisfy the ainnds of ::ny impartial set of Judges that. Cov e:inor Ille::e is really being In.uistly i;: e ur id and that he is tl' re:al. sincere e1ha11-pion of the rights of the poor peoiPle, I am one that will lie with himt all the tinie. Let this can dI date pr'oduice the evidence. Somiie of ithe platforms make al holihy of the ruiral schools. I too, ain most ti artily in favor of the developtent of the r ural school anci would be glad to devote my life to the uplniilding of a 0011111in; ty and school tuost espee ially if 1 could do so. I want the can didate who ldvocates them to let us know what it is lie wants to (1o for I hem. ] low is he going to help them? ''here ate thousands of 11o1e all ov er the state who are in favor of the rural school development measures who are not fit to be governor. We wwant something definite. Now, .\I r. Editor, let me make this co sing appeal. When the candidates come before us and make charges and1( insinuations let us demand that they give the facts or shut up. We do not desire to be harrangued all the time with generalities and insinuations that 11y wide of the marlk and are not worth the tim 1 it took to tell themr. If a ran who has hail II ollice of iulic trust comes biefore you telling you of rottenness th existed close to where he has Leon while in office ask himi what he did while there to better it.
