former years, but this organization
will work in close cooperation with
the National Association for the Study

Letters From
The People
MCCLELLAN A DISAPPOINTMENT

Editor Advertiser: A little local in
your mornings paper stated that our
supervisor for the fourth district, Mr..
Mcclellan, expected to be reelected a.
the coming election. Probably, if ne
gets Democratic votes enough; but as
to Republicans, he has proven himself
unworthy of their support. Many Re
publicans at the last election voted for
the gentleman under the misapprehen-
sion that he was a representative of the
business community and would be an
Improvement on some of the other
names on the ticket, although a Demo
crat. But how mistaken we were. Mr.
Mcclellan has proven an obstructionist
on all matters of legislation proposed
by the majority, and in return what
has he proposed? Nothing His whole
record can be summed up in one word,
and that is Obstruction. He has
proved himself false to those who elect
ed him. He is unworthy of reelection
In saying this, [ believe that many
good Democrats of the business com
munity will agree with me. With
Aylett of the Republicans, he has been
tried and found wanting, and should
give way to good men now
