HIs RECORD Good.

No Congressman could have stood
any closer to the wishes and inter-
ests of his constituents than Mr..
Capehart. Hehas necessarily made
some enemies and aroused some OPP
position by his recommendation
for appointments, but his vote and
his influence has in every particu-
lar been with the people and he has
stood as firm as stone wall. On
the great silver question he has
stood firmly for the money of the
constitution and the money the peo-
pie demand-silver. He has done
this in the face of the Administra-
ton and at the risk of losing infu-
ence for appointments. On the
tariff question Unsupported the Will
son bill which was introduced as a
measure embodying the principles
and doctrine of the Democratic
party.
And yet few newspapers and
some politicians have used every
means to create the impression in
the minds of the people that there
are some serious flaws in Mr.. Cape
harris record. But every such
newspaper and politician is oppos
ing Mr. Capehart on account of hav-
ing made some recommendation for
Office that he or it did not like, or
for having failed to make some rec
ommendation that he crit did want.
They have the right to oppose him
for this, if they choose, but they
should tell the people why they op-
pose him and not give a false reason.
If they are opposing him on account
of some appointment they should
not try to make it appear that they
are opposing him on account of his
record.
1t is not only due a faithful rep
resentatlve but it is due the Demo-
ocratic party that they tote fair

Judge J. G. Mcclure, of Wood
county, has published a letter with
drawing from the contest for the
Democratic nomination for Cong
ress in this district. He says that
in justice to himself and his bust
ness, he could not now be a candi-
date. He further says that the
nominee of the convention will have
his most enthusiastic support. The
withdrawal of Judge McCluer,
leaves now only Mr.. Capehart and
Hon. ". W. Thomas TO contest for
the nomination. Mr.. Capehart will
doubtless be nominated by acclama-
ton, as the people everywhere are
for him.
