RaIlyins to Vardaman's Standard.

While Judge Critz carried this,
Lincoln) county by a small plu-
rality in the first primary there
is no doubt about Vardaman's
carrying it this time, since Mr.
NoePs most enthusiastic friends
and supporters are now more ell.
thuastic for Maj. Vardaman. Not
only are the Noel votes rallyiug
to the Major, but since the true
light of investigation has been
turned on, a larger portion of the
Critz support has rallied around
the Vardaman banner and will
vote for him who will make Mis-
sissippi a clean and incorruptible
governor. Lincoln County Times.

But voters, We are persuaded
Of better things Of you and we

A Plain Statement.

To the People of DeSoto County:
In last weeks issue of the
TINES PROMOTER | published a
card explaining matter out of
which some were endeayoring to
make political capital. I also
stated that | had made the race
on my merits only. Ny sttention
has been called to the fact that,
since the issuance of the card
above referred to, | have been
the victim of plot to connect my
name with dirty political work.
lnsinuations, to support which
positively no proof or facts are
adduced, have been insidiously
circulated. In order that my
friends may know my exact posi-
ton during the present race, I
will state that my canvass was
made solely on my record and
ability. At no time did | induce
any candidate to enter the race
or approve of his entering. I
have had no understanding with
any candidate for the chancery
clerks Office. At no time have I
assisted, encouraged. approved,
or countenanced any mudslinging
or dirty work.
therefore brand any report or
insinuation to the contrary as un-
true and us manufactured and in
sidiously circulated in a base de.
sire to rob me Of votes and of my
reputation and my friends.
Very respectfully,
l. d. FoGG.
