Chandler, Okla, Nov. l, 1915.
Dear Friend and Co.Worker:
Just one week from today will oc-
cur the general election, and l am
writing you at this time because reel
that as a school officer, you are ceep-
ly interested with me In the edu-
cational welfare Of our county and
state; and that In the selection Of
men for such offices, as county and
state superintendent that politics
should not enter therein, but that fit
ness for these positions should be our
only consideration. Having been c'ose-
ly associated with you In the school
work OF this county for several years
| know that you prefer men in these
positions who stand for clean conser-
vative, non-partisan administration oil
the school affairs, both county ana
state, men who are fitted by education
and experience to carry on this great
est OF all work, and men In whom You
have the utmost confidence as TO Their
ability and character, We are indeed
fortunate In having just men in the
person OF p. C. Rawdon, for county
r. II. Wilson, for state superintendent.
For the same reason that am asking
you TO support Mr.. Rawdon, the re-
publican nominee for county superin-
tendent, | am asking you to support
Mr.. wilson, the democratic nominee
for state uperintendent-sole for
the reason that | honestly know and
believe that these men are better
qualified than their opponents and
that with our school affairs in their
hands for the length of their respec-
tive terms of office | would have no
fear for the future welfare and de-
velopment OF our educational inter-
ests-county and state. In conclusion,
let me urge you to give these men
your heartiest support, and as one
who holds your friendship and conf
dence in the highest esteem, l shall
ever feel indebted to You and TO your
friends,
Very respectfully submitted,
o. F. HAYES,

in and work for the success of the
ticket, while If he should force his way
TO nomination, SO it is said, the oppo-
Sltlon within the party would be so
strong that Fern would have a walk
away.
Hustace 5 chances are brighter
There are many who were exceedingly
t0uchy on the mayor question after
the last county convention and these
are still of the opinion that Hustace
defeated made a better impression than
Lane nominated. There is a strong
feeling running that Hustace would
have won the last election if given a
chance and the chance may come this
year. There are others in the party
who see in Hustace the one man who
could beat Trent for the treasurer 5
position and when it became known a
few days ago that the former chairman
OF the supervisors was resigning from
the Bank of Hawaii it was decided in
many quarters that he would be an
available and a successful candidate
for treasurer
Jim Quinn is another possibility and
his record as chairman of the roads,

how ably he could hold down the lob
