Business Men DenOunce MiSstatement.

To the Voters of the Seventh District
Our attention having been called
to the assertion made by Mr., j.. A.
Douthit, Democratic Justice of the
Peace in The Dalles, that Sam Stark
is a weak opponent to Judge Brad
shaw, and considered by the people of
his home town to be a joke. We do not
hesitate to say this in untrue and
misleading.
Mr.. Stark is over 80 years of age,
with ten years experience Yin the
active practice of law in the state and
federal courts of Oregon; is a man well
learned in the law, and in every re-
spect competent and qualified to dis
charge the duties of Circuit Judge.
He is a self-made man, with mind of
his own, and if elected, in our judg-
ment, will administer the duties of the
office without delay, impartially and
irrespective of politics and without
fear or favor to anyone.
So far as property interests are con-
cerned, we feel they would be Just as
safe with Mr.. Stark on the bench as
they are now or would be with Judge
Bradshaw reelected.
We believe it will be demonstrated
beyond doubt that Mr. Stark will prove
the strongest opponent ever met by
Judge Bradshaw, the Democratic
nominee, in any election, and we feel
safe in saying that Mr.. Stark will
carry Hood River County with a safe
majority. Respectfully,
M. F. Shaw,

WINTER COURSES
PLANNED AT @. A. c.

The winter short course at the Ore

period of six weeks and will be fol-
lowed Immediately by special course

The committee now in charge of
the work, is arranging for the ac-

Those who are making the effort to
have it appear that Blease's strength
lies with the cotton mill votes of the
State to which they refer sneeringly
must remember in order to secure the
large vote which he had in the first
primary, there were great many
thousand voters of South Carolina who
cast their ballots for him who are not
cotton mill people. Besides that, we
have observed for many years that all
of the candidates for office have been
very anxious and have labored very
hard to secure these cotton mill votes,
as they are termed, and it is no dis
credit to any man if he does secure
then.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-09-09

We wonder if the newspapers which
are making such bitter fight on Can
didate Blease ever stop to think what
might be the result of such cam
paign as is being waged. If there
should be trouble before this election
is over, which We hope there will not
be, the newspapers will be responsible
for it. 90
The people know the two candidates
for governor and have had their rec
ords before them for number Of
years. Both of them have made cam
paigns in the State heretofore and if
there is anything that is derogatory
to either it should have been and
would have been brought out before.
It is wrong and unfair and unjust to
make insinuations and charges that
are not sustained by the proof and is
calculated to arouse the passions OF
the people which may result seriously.
The people, we do not believe, are 60
ing to be Influenced against any man
by insinuations and charges as to
what he will do.
The opponents of Mr.. Featherstone
have made no attack upon him per-
sonally and are making none. The
issue now is as much an issue OF plat
form as it was before. The two men
who are in the race were in the race
before the first primary and II there
we're charges to be made they should
have been made then.

doing him more good than harm.
1t is not for Blease that We mourn,
but for the newspaper profession.
"The menace"-the real menace
will be met by the people Of South
Carolina, as they have met all other
questions.
During the campaign and before the
first primary election, the Columbia
State made a strong fight in an argu-
mentative manner against Mr.. Feath-
erstone and thereby brought down the
wrath of a large majority of the
papers of South Carolina charging it
with ''unfairness." They had practi-
cally nothing to say about Mr.. Blease,
he having distinctly defed them to
make their charges, if any they had,
to his face. They failed to do so.
Now they are making one Of the
ugliest and most slanderous cam
paigns against Mr.. Blease that has
ever been wased in the State of South
Carolina What do the newspapers
think of this fight at this time? Is it
fair? Mr.. Blease and his friends have
no manner now in which to answer
them for they will publish nothing
favorable to Blease; he can not an-
