AND now comes the campaign liar
with a new one. 1t is being circu.
lated that Hon. Champ Clark did
not fill his appointment at Lebanon,
Mo. This, like all the rest OF the
lies, is coming home to roost. Hon.
Champ Clark not only filed his ap-
pointment at Lebanon but made one
OF the best speeches of the campaign.
The Lebanon Rustic devotes Il large
amount of space to this address and
refers to it in most complimentary
terms. After giving the main points
of MIR. Clark's argument the Rustic
says:
Mr.. Clark's speech was one of the
best ever heard in this city. 1t put
Democrats to thinking, and aroused
them to the highest pitch of enthusi.
asm. 1t was just the kind of a speech
needed here to arouse the Democrats
to a sense of duty and an active, ag-
gressive campaign. 1t was a grand
and successful opening of the cam :
paign in Laclede county, with the
eioquence and personal magnetism
of the gallant Congressman from the
Ninth District to start the enthusi-
asm for the fight SO auspiciously be-
gun, and with every prospect of vic
tory for the county ticket, placing
Laclede county safely in the Demo.
cratic ranks this fall.
Mr.. Clark has made forty speeches
already in the campaign and will
make as many more before the cleo.
ton. He strikes from the shoulder
and every blow has a telling effect.
Mr.. Clark will be returned to Con-
gress by a largely increased majority.
He is an able and brilliant orator
and an aggressive, courageous fighter.
He has made a splendid record DUR
ing his first term in Congress.
