REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Paris. Mo. Feb. 6-Earr:- q. Hawcs
candidate fer tho Democratic nomination
for Governor. addressed the Democrats
of Monroe County at the opera-hnuse in
! Paris tonight. The house seats. 500 per-
sons and it was rowdcd.
Mr.. Halves was cutie caustic in his
reference to Congressman who remain
away from Washington during the legis-
lative sessions. intimatinG that only prom
Use of reward could induce them 10 neg
| lect their duties"
Emphasis WIS placed on party loyalty.
Mr.. Halves spent the afternoon mingling
among the farmers who We're in town In
large numbers.
Mr.. Halves was introduced by R. n.
| Bodine. former Congressman from the
Second District.
Among the prominent Democrats pres
ent were: w. NJ. Terrell. chairman Of
Whitecotton. Speaker of the Missouri
House: Editor Rouse of the Monroe Dem
ocrat: F. l.. Pitts. former State Treasurer.
and W. H. Alexander of the Paris Mer-
curry.
NEGLECT OF DUTY.
In part, Mr.. Halves said:
II a farmer employs a man to chop a cord of
wood for him and pays him for it he expects
that the wood will be cut or the money re-
turned. When the people employ a public SER
want and pay him 20 perform certain work in
their behalf they expect him to perform that
work or not draw his salary.
There has been a special session Of Congress
and now Congress Is engaged in a regular sss-
sion. It Is the duty of every Congressman to
be in his place and attend to the duties OF his
office. II every Congressman in the United
States stayed away from Congress and neglected
the duties of his office. there would be no
national legislation.
When the people employ a Circuit Attorney
they expect him TO devote his time to the duties
OF his office. When they employ a Congress
man they employ him to stay in Washington
and to attend to national legislation.
high brite to cause a Congressman to corrupt!y
neglect the duties OF his office for some other
purpose. The promise of the excise commits
sionership. a coal oil commissionersh'p or the
position of Beer Inspector would be al,uring to
a man who would soon go out Of office and had
no position in immediate prospect. But no
matter how alluriag or attractive the promise of
position might be to a retiring Congressman. he.
nevertheless. owes 1t a duty to his constituents
to attend to the work for which he is paid,
poses.
The employment of the old Meriwether lead
ers in the city of ST. Louis makes me serious
ly doubt his position. A statement which IS
by him. will at once dispel any doubt about
the matter.
The hired men Of my opponent are claiming
that l am not a bona-fide candidate.
They know this to be a lie. as each day It
becomes more apparent to them that my sup
porters will be the dominating element in the
next State Convention. 1 have entered into
this contest determined to succeed.
CAN'T. Reed and Crow have not injected per
sonalities into this campaign. My opponent in
abide by the consequences. / will not run
away.
