John Lind is a poor man and that
proves that he is an honest one, be-
cause he has been in a position for
years where he could have made u
fortune had he chosen to betray the
people. His opponent is not only a
rich man, but a man who has at all
times taken advantage Of the main
chance. Mr.. Eustis has much to ex-
plain. John Lind has nothing. There
is no guaranty loan or hospital scandal

In the last campaign Mr.. Lind lost
many votes because he was falsely
charged with declaring he was an

falsehood after a jury branded the ar

they do not like to have God mockeG
