L'ENGLE TALKS
OF CAMPAIGN
CANDIDATE FOR Tilt UNITED
STATES SENATE SAYS He
WANTS TO BE ELECTED BY ALL
THE PEOPLE AND MT BY ANY
CLIQUE.

CLIQUE.
Claude LEngIe, cahidate for
United States senator. wo has been
in Pensacola for two avs, leaves
this morning for all poins in Escam-
bia county that can be cached in a
two days rail and buoy trip. He
has started on his seconttrfp through
Florida to carry out his declared in
tention of seeing as may people as
possible before the wong time ar
rives.
To those who ask hm about the
senatorial campaign, ir. L'Engle
says:
1t is impossible foFl man to tell
how he is getting aIdg in a cam
paign that has to b. made under
conditions that exist t present in
Florida. Under our binary law as
amended by the last legislature, the
people have the clifton of their
representatives absOFeIy in their
hands, and each indIdual, qualified
to vote, can exert hiSnfiuenCe in the
choice Of public ofjals. ! cannot
understand how cadidate can esti-
mate his chance Of lection until he
has seen or heard SpressiOns from
all the people who sill vote in the
primaries, and WhenAe has seen them
all I know not how he can 4sossfUAy
get information of he intentions OF
the voters on which to make an esti-
mate that is wOrth.aaything.
Met 1900 Voters.
ION my first tout Of the state-just
complexion whth ] visited more
than 200 Florida owns, 1 have per
sonaIIy met tweIV thousand voters
to whom I have glen one Of my fold
ers in which I haE set forth, in con
densed form, the governmental prin-
ciples which I beRve will best safe
guard the rights I'D liberties OF the
people, vet I canOt say what i'm
preston I have nade on majority
of these twelve tOusand.
Some people ineach town ! have
visited have deClTed for me, but
aside from a kindand courteous re-
ception most of he people l have
met have not eXpessed their voting
intention.
Il am encouraged to keep right on
with my canvass, IS I have begun II
for many reasons Chief among them
IS that I believe'the only proper
way for a man Il get pubic onlce
is to convince a majority OF the PEG
pie that he is be man best fitted
to represent thGn. The only way
to convince the pople is to see them
/ am seeing thea. Then nearly al
the people l meeGsay that they know
me either By hating read my paper
or bv reading abdTt the fights l have
made on bad conditions in the state
When a man is kaDwn as | am known
he has a good Cbnce to win IN his
fight against the anne influences Una
have Before ODpEed him, Wnen ne
asks the npODIp for whom he has
fought, to let linn further SeTV'
them in one of ne Offices JhaJ De
long to them
No SpeciH interests,
There is no SPECIAL interest behind
me; no political GOwd CT faction run
ming me: no gTdTp. gang or ouncl
pulling for me; NJ person, institution
or company pUttilg up for me
Il am determined to owe my OfiC'
10 all the people, sr do without the OF
fee
IF a few peCde run a candidate
when he is running, they will ru'
him after he aTTEes-
IF a small cTOEd get together, ant
by a campaign fund. spent by q cam
raign committee, put candidat
throuEh-they viii keep TiSht on put
ting him through after he is elected.
Special intereTts have elected IN
senators in most of the states, An
special legislation is turned out -
them for Che sreCial hencht OF III
special interests.
This special egYslGtion has BE
come the curse qf the country.
