brief one-simplY giving an outline
of the policy on which he proposes
to make the race for congress. He
said that his candidacy will be a
clean one and will be fought upon
no antagonizing principles. He had
the best of words for his opponent,

against the course of Mr.. McRae in
congress- Mr. Carter simply stated
that he wanted the Office and pro-
posed to work to that end, prom
ising a faithful discharge of the
duties in case he we're houored with

Mr. Carter is easy and graceful and
deeply impresSes the audience that
