they have proven on several occasions,
one notable occasion being when they

time gave our candidate for governor.

Senator Turner is making a speech on

he is winning votes for the democratic
ticket every day.
throughout the state the prevailing
sentiment of the independent voter is
with the democrats and there is every
indication that we will win in the cleo

In this campaign the issues are
clearly drawn as between the railroad
lobby of this state and the interests of
the people, and the people are going
