REEFS is AFRAID
TO MEET 5. 5. SMITH

In reply to s. S. Smith published
today Judge Rees refuses to meet Mr.
Smith in joint discussion. This will
be surprise to Rees' friends who did
not think him gutter.
In his reply Judge Rees asserts that
he has already concluded his canvasL
in parts OF the district and that it
would be folly for him to 60 over the
same territory again and that In
other parts Of the district where he is
well known he will make no canvass.
He says;
aside from this it seems to me q
matter OF doubt to say the least
whether, at this time Of year,
we could find an audience with pa
thence enough to listen to three
speeches night. You must remem-
Der that this is an unusual time for
holding political meetings and that
this is very busy season. would
have no objection to meeting either
you or Mr.. Calderhead in joint debate
in few places in the district and |
would most certainly be willing to
put up my share Of the expenses, but
l would not care to talk with both Of
you on the same evening"
1t is probable that Smith will chal-
lenge him to joint meetings in which
only Smith and Rees will speak.
