10 the Democratic voters of Ac-

dered by my party to express pref
erence as 10 who is desired for county

next term OF office; and inasmuch as
this said expression OF public opinion
has, by the voice OF the people" IN
the usual way-(by almost endless
petitions and letters without num-
berj-been obtained by my opponent
and myself; and further, inasmuch as
this primary proposition is not only
out of order, and something unknown
in our State, but at this, the eleventh
hour, just prior to the Superinten-
dents conference and the appoint
ments of county superintendent, is
an unjust and unfair proposition
after my opponent has already com
pleted a most thorough, elective can
vass Of the entire county II there
fore most respectfully decline to go
into this unequal fight, and shall
pursue the usual course of applicants
for said Office. And / hereby appeal
to the fair minded democracy of Ac.
comac, and to my friends, to cast no
votes for me on the 18th day of May
but, by their silence, rebuke this
unjust and unfair movement, and
thus say to the properly constituted
appointing Board, 1--WE bow to the
will of the people-in accepting the
decision of the peoples elected
Board" Respectfully,

To the Democratic Voters of Acco-
mac:
The recent mass meeting held at
the court house having decided by
an overwhelming majority to hold
primary election for the purpose OF
nominating to the State Board of
Education candidate for Superin-
tendent of Schools in this county, l
hereby announce myself a candidate
for that position, and respectfully
solicit the support of my fellow citi-
zens. To those who are not acqualnt-
ed with me it may not be out of place
to say, that have spent my life in
the service of the public schools,
having been principal of the Oman
cock Public High School for the past
eighteen years. During this long
period of service 1 have not only tried
to discharge my duty as a teacher
but have studied school methods and
the most approved systems prevailing
in other States in order to fit myself
for some larger sphere of educational
work when occasion presented itself.
| shall esteem it a great honor to have
the support of the people of Acco-
mac for this position, and if | receive
the appointment promise to dedi-
cate all my energies to the improve
ment and upbuilding of the public
school system in this county. re-
main with great respect
Your obedient servant,

letters From the People.

Mr.. EDIToR-In your last issue Mr..
"Fairplayn puts himself before the
public in what | consider false atti-
tude. His assumed name is also
little too suggestive in these latter
days of unfair play. 1t is very evil
dent and plain to any casual observer
that he intends, by fair play or foul
means, to force his candidate upon
both "the people" and the appoint
ing Board.
How "Fairplay' pleads that his
candidate be left monarch of all he
surveys" All other candidates must
retire from the field of action, and
he, Mr. Joynes, be left standing alone
with the Board of Education-a
figurehead arrangement.
Mr.. Editor, the most surprising bit
OF seeming generosity on the part of
"Fairplay' is that any democratic
candidate whatever can get in bid
in this canvass-but in the same sem
tence ne hastens to say that any such
democrat "should have come out
while the battle was on" Deliver us
from such fairplay mamie is con-
demning in any candidate just what
his pet friend has exercised most
wonderfully and shamefully on our
present incumbent. Inconsistency
thou art jewel"
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, l cannot
longer stand by as a neutral observer
of all this farce under the name OF
1.-THE people"-but will now stake
hand.n DEMOCRAT.
