GOVERNOR HAWKINS is making
vigorous canvass, and his speeches
are having telling effect. He
stands squarely on the same plat>
form he stood upon when elected
Governor, and the people see no
good reason why he should not be
reelected to the position he has SO
ably filed. His recollection would
put forever at rest the State debt
question, and before another Gaber-
material canvass takes place the peo>
pie will recognize the benefit accru
ing to the State by the adoption of
an honest policy. The old maxim,
''let we'll enough alone" will hold
good in this instance.

that Houk would fairly demolish
