olutions are lengthy filling about
portion of them are devoted to full
some praise of Hanna, Roosevelt.

an anti-climax. Take out the one res
olution favoring the creation of the
Sixth district and you have nothing
left but a poo quality of foam and
froth. On the one issue which is be
fore the people of the territory, the
question of statehood. the platform
is a complete straddle. In all it's YER
boseness only seven lines are devot-
ed to statehood. Here is the s%traddle:
We favor. and of right are entitled
to statehood within the boundary
lines of our territory, as they now ex
list. We hereby express our conf
dence in the national committee and
congress to deal with us in the mat
ter of statehood fairly and justly.
In other words while some of us
prefer single statehood, we will do
just what the national committee
wants us to do. We would in fact,
do this just now but we don't know
what is wanted. Then the climax is
reached when Rodey is thanked for
his untiring efforts for statehood.
but it depreciates his advocacy of the
present measure before the commit
tee. There was never more of a com
plete straddle or a more namby-pam-
by resolution than this statehood res
olution. But nothing better could be
expected, from the Office holding oil
garchy that dictated the platform.
Their one object is to freeze to the !
Offices and when a real issue is be-

daily press divided, and the national
administration taking one side, and

The following are some OF the
more interesting charges being
made by the two Republican con-
testants for the Congressional NOM
nation in the spotless Eleventh
District:
That the Edwards forces spent
upwards Of $780, 900 against Hunter.
That great part Of this sum was
collected Illegally from Federal
offlcoholders.
That those who refused to donate
were transferred and reduced in
salary.
That DR., Hunter was Threatened
with assassination and will make
affidavit to this effect.
That ]. G. Bird, OF Williamsburg,
was told in the Edwards rump
meeting at London that il he pro-
tested against the action taken that
he would be thrown from a two
story window. Granville Phllpot,
of Clay county, and George G.
Thompson, OF East Bernstadt, pre-.
vented violence to Bird by the use
OF arms.
That In one judicial district
seventy-four felony indictments
were filed away in the interest of
one Of the candidates.
DR.. Hunter has friends who de-
clare that one man was promised
that an indictment for forgery
against his son would be filed
away II he would steal the vote OF
one precinct. He is alleged TO
have counted the precinct for Ed
wards, and, upon being detected,
attempted suicide. His recovery
is now doubtful. DR.. Hunter will
furnish the State Committee with
the mans full name, his address
and the number OF precinct where
he was election officer.

That ballots and boxes were
stolen and burned in Laurel, Bell
