JUDGE MANN
Makes REPLY
Ccontinued from page onel

utmost confidence in the Integrity
and ability of Judge Rhea and in his
fitness for the high position he now
occupies, and we endorse the action
OF the governor and general assem-
by of this state in his Apo 'ntment
and confirmation, and we also de-
sire to extend our thanks TO the Hon
A. A. Phlegar, Hon, r. Tate Irvine,
Hon. A. A. Campbell. and Hon. b.
f.. Buchanan for their voluntary
and patriotic defense of Judge Rhea
before the legislative committee"
Judge Mann adds:
Surely the gallant Democrats of
the ninth q strict, who know Judge
Rhea personally and who adopted
these resolutions are entitled to the
confidence of the people OF Virginia
and justify the committee in their
conclusion reached, / believe then
and believe now that / was II ght in
voting with the committee and leg
iclature for the confirmation of
Judge Rhea'
Judge Mann gave a deta led ac-
count of his Confederate service
showing that on account of physi-
dal disabiltlen he was prevented
from returning TO the regular army
after serving one year therein, but
that during the succeeding years
of the war he DID perform active
and hazardous service as a soldier
He concluded his statement as
follows:
CAS- to the general charge that 1
am the candidate OF two 'rnes' /
VII say that four years ago, when
was defeated for The nomination.
announced that 1 would be a can
didate at the next primary. The
supportI now have consists of such
friends as | then had, and such as
have cincs come to my support. The
recruits | must say have been very
Numerous, and l am proud to say,
that among them are many of the
best citizens Of this commonwealth
They have come to my support free
y and of their own accord.
Il have not, nor has any one for
me, made any compromise or com
bination Of any kind whatsoever.
and have not. nor has any for me,
made any promise o. pledge to any
man or set of men whomsoever, nor
have | been asked to do so; and If
/ am elected / will be absolutely
free and untrammelled to perform
my full duty to the very best of my
ability.
''The Antl-Sa' DON League is not
a politl cal organization and has not
endorsed me. have long stood for
the great principles it represents
and am one of Its members, AMI it
should not seem strange that 1 have
among my supporters almost the en-.
tire membership of the organization
not just the leaders, but the great
rank and file of members.
The statement that a combina
ton was made between the Anti
Saloon League, and the Iquor inter
est5 in my behalf or between myself
and the liquor interests seems too
absurd to answer.
1t IS, Of course, untrue and has
no foundation whatever in fact,-The
policy declared by the Anti-Saloon
League was adopted because in its
ju lgment that action would best
promote the temperance cause"
