CARD OF HUGH A. WHITE

| have recently understood that
there has been some discussion
among the democratic voters as to
the political record Of the legislative
candidates. I have never had
political opinion, nor done o political
act which | desired to conceal, and
| wish the voters to know just how
I stand. In 1896, with thousands
of other democrats, who now rank
high in the honors and councils OF
the the party.I voted forlPalmer and
Buckner, against free silver. and
this vote was in accordance with
nv conscience and intelligent con
viction. My action then was entire
" in occord with Mr.. Bryan's views
OF citizens duty. On February H.
1896, some time before Mr.. Bryan
was nominated, he wrote as follows
81 am now a private citizen, but
nv vote is my own. Directed by
nv conscience and by my best judg,
ment, shall use that vote to defend
nv rights, to protect my family and
advance the welfare Of society. No
convention can rob me of my convic-
lions nor can any party organization
drive me TO conspire against the
prosperity and liberty OF my coun-
try. 49,, A.
In concluding this letter Mr..
Bryan further said:
"Mr. Cleveland would not sup port
free silver candidate for the presi-
dency and he should not do so II he
really believes that free coinage
would ruin the country"
| therefore did exactly what Mr.
BRYAN advised and told one to do
Since 1896 have voted for Parker
and Bryan because they were dem
ocrats and I thought they stood foT
the best interest OF the country. The
very essence of democracy, as Mr.
Bryan understands it, is to obtain 6
frank and manly expression OF the
intelligent Judgment OF the people
He is right and, and herein lies his
greatness. n,t,,Dn

stauuton Votes "Dry" for Fret
Time In History

For the first time, in its history
Stanton veted "dry" in the local
option election held in that
city last Thursday, July 22nd.
The victory was won by a majority
of twenty, out of total vote cast
of 1904.
The election passed off quietly,
and there was a notable absence oil
excitement of any kind. Both
sides were alert all day, but the
best of feeling prevailed and no
untoward event occurred to emphn
size the strenuous contest between
the temperance and liquor forces
The "drys" were jubilant over the
result, and the "wets" accepted
the verdict with as much grace as
possible under the circumstances
Az result of the election Staun'
toms saloons will have to close
their doors for at least two years
The liquor dealers have ninety
dave in which to dispose of theil
present stock, making the date OF
closing Friday, October 22nd, o.
midnight. There are fifteen ga
looms in the city, including those
at the hotels.
1t is probable that the saloon
keepers will embark in some Other
business and it is understood thai
there is already an option on al
least one or two of the houses now
occupied by saloons, with a view
to opening another form OF buai
ness in them.
The other local option election
| in Staunton resulted as follows
Ii 1887 the SWEETS" were victorious
by majority of 95; In 1891, tn
"wets" won by % majority; an'
In 1907, the "wets" carried tn
