DAN RUNNELS SPEAKS.
A Manly Letter to Republican
Electors.

William O'Connor, the democratic
candidate for Register of Deeds, is
flooding this county with circulars try
ing to arouse sympathy by stating that
he is poor while am rich, and insin-
yates that | did not use him fairly
when he ran against me two years ago.
Two years ago William O'Connor had
several weeks TO devote to his cam
paign. | had but u few days, having
been placed on the ticket at the
earnest solicitation of the County Com
mittee but few days before the elec-
ton to fill the place of the regular
nominee who declined to run. Hav-
ing been placed on the ticket labored
earnestly for the election of the whole
ticket, myself included, and was
elected. defy any man to state that
then or ever used any unfair means to
secure the election of myself or any
other man. | did not then and shall
not now say one unkind word against
Mr.. O'Connor. | am not, however, Il
little surprised at the means he adopt
ed to secure republican votes. He
says: He is a poor man and ! am rich
and therefore he should be elected.
Now, | know nothing of Mr.. O'Con-
nor's financial condition and | am
entirely unable to see what that has to
do with the coming election. Mr..
O'Connor says | am rich. | am far
from that but do not base any claim
for support on my financial condition
whether that condition is good or bad.
If | had not spent large portion of
what | have earned in trying to assist
my friends, my financial condition
would have been far better than it is
to-day. ] have spent all the years Of
my life from boy-hoOd in this county.
No poorer boy ever commenced life in
this county than | was. Without
friends, acquaintances, influence, mon
ey, trade or profession, a stranger in Il
strange place, single handed and alone
| commenced the battle of life here
in st. Clair County. | labored with
my hands for every farthing have in
the world and continue to labor now
every day of my life and expect to
to'the end of my life. | have been
no drone in the hive. | haye tried to
be an honest, industrious, charitable,
| law-ablding citizen. | have held the
Office of Register of Deeds for the last
| two years. No man, friend or enemy,
has found fault with the manner in
which the business of the Office has
been conducted. | haye, in accord
ance with party usage, been renomin-
ated by an Overwhelming majority.
| shall resort to no sympathy dodge or
any unfair means TO secure my cleo
ton. | believe | am entitled to the
support of the republican party and |
base my claim for that support upon
my record as an officer, citizen and
n republican. / am not ashamed of
that record and invite criticism by all
friends and enemies.
Republicans of st. Clair County, you
have placed me III nomination and
confidently expect you to stand by me
as faithfully as | have stood by the
party at all times and under all cir
cumstances in the past.

The Supreme Court of Indiana. on
rehearing. has declined to reverse its de-
cision that saloon may be attacked in
law as nuisance, precisely as are any
other things capable of being proved to
be detrimental to property interests. The
liquor interests of Indiana have agreed to
contest the matter further. This is graft
flying. The question involved ought to
be settled speedily and permanently. The
decision opens a door through which
abuse amounting to tyranny might enter.
IF anything detrimental to property
value, but IN itself business recognized
by the law, may be forbidden because of
such influence upon values. where shall
the line be drawn at which the operation
of the rule shall cease? On the other
hand. if business may be licensed for
conduct next door to ones residence.
which destroys the residence value of the
property and entails consequent loss,
shall not the party damaged have redress?
Nay. shall he not have the aggressive
arm of the law interposed that the thing
complained of may be removed?
