Ell PASO HERALD

POindexter is ''straddler'' and that he
is the stool pigeon for Bailey. not in
the race to win, but to defeat the prOhi-
bitiOn cause by defeating Johnson.
And there you are and the end Is not
yet.
Supporters OF each man are busy
delving into every salacious rumor put
out regarding any of the candidates and
If there is a basis of truth in any of
them they will be sprung.
There are yet three weeks in which
to make the campaign and the closing
days will find the contest even hotter
than it now is.

Is there a Democrat, one who is real
simon pure, died in the wool, yard
wide and a foot thick, a candidate for
the office of governor?
If those who have been listening at
the speeches of the various candidates
or reading them. believe adj the charges
made, he will have to come to the con-
clTsion that the Democratic party has
fallen in a bad way so far as selecting
a standard bearer is concerned.
The question as to the democracy or
the candidates was first raised in re-
gard to the faith of o. B. COlquitt.
Davidson asserted positively that the
railroad commissioner was not Demo-
crat because he had repudiated Demo-
cratic platform when he fought sub
mission. Johnson took up the cry and
Poindexter Joined in. The three agreed
unanimously that Mr. COlquitt ought to
be kicked out of the Democratic party
and make the race as the Republican
nominee. They proceeded to express this
opinion in various speeches over the
state
Mr.. ColQuitt's friends then got busy
delving into the political archives which
contained the records of the other three
men and now he is asserting positively
that Davidson, Poindexter and Johnson
ought to be read out of the party and
that he is the only Democrat in the
race.
Davidson Also "Unwashed."
Mr.. Colquitt says that Davidson is
not a Democrat because when Harri-
son was elected president he endorsed
and worked for the appointment of
Wright Quincy, negro, for collector
of customs at Galveston, and that he
added to this offence by recommending
Quincy for reappointment over a white
man when Cleveland was elected. This
charge he has been making on several
occasions and always concludes with
land you haven't heard Davidson deny
the truth of the assertion, have you?"
Next Johnson record was called into
question. Colquitt charged that when
Bryan was the nominee Of the Demo-
Gratis for president that Johnson re-
scented it so much that he tore Bryan's
name off the top sof the ticket and
stamped II under his feet in the gutter
This is said to have occurred in Tyler
Johnson has also been called upon to
deny the incident.
Poindexter Helped Enemies.
Nor did Mr.. Poindexter escape crfti-
cism along the same line. Mr.. ColQuftt
charges that when the immortal Hogg
was leading the vanguard Of the Texas
Democracy and needed all the help he |
could get, as the Clark cohorts were |
crowding him closely, that Poindexter |
was found in the enemies camp. This |
has likewise not been denied.
The injection of this personal element |
into the fight has made the contest even |
more bitter. Slurs are being thrown in /
all directions by all four of the candi- |
dates.
Colquitt calls Davidson a tax !
dodger" because it is charged he owes !
the state for certain taxes due. Da- |
wilson retorts in like manner by calling !
ColQuitt tax eater" because he is cam |
the state and at the same time |
drawing a saIary for which he is not |
rendering any service.

grace of God and their valiant services
America we hope forever
The pledges made in those trying days
by those who preferred to stay at home
or We're unable to enlist, that no old
soldier should verNsuffer either physi-
cally or financially. if It was in their
power to prevent it, are well remembered
by the writer Hence, I hope that no
governor of Maine will default the
pledges then made by declining to re-
position which the applicant is so well
qualified TO fill, as is Leroy 7. Carleton.
His Repubicanism is of the sterling
reliable, unquestioned type, inbred by
association with the spirit of the Great
Lincoln, and others of his kind, but few
of whom remain with us as reminders
of the patriotic past
Among others. that ideal soldier and
former Governor of our State, Joshua L.
Carletons disappointment.
Hoping, my dear Governor, that this
appeal from your humble servant will re-
ceive due consideration, based as it is
on my memory of the past and the
pledges made to the valiant men of those
days, as well as because of the eminent
qualifications of Mr.. Carleton for the po-
sition to which he is a candidate for re-
appointment in the near future | am,

My Dear Governor:
AS an average citizen of Maine and
Republican in sentiment since the first
| canddates-Freemont and Dayton-weri'
named in 1856 when | was a boy but seven
years of age, | desire to make an appeal
to your excellency for disappointment Of
the Hon. Leroy T. Carleton as Fish and
Game Commissioner for another term at
least.
My reasons / will enumerate seriatim
First. by conference with many of our
distinguished citizens. some of them eN-
governors and one of them n soldier OF
most knightly bearing and distinguished
prestige, l find practically unanimous
sentiment favorable to Nh. Carleton s
appointment, because of the splendid
prestige which his department under
his efficient management has given to
health restoring. vacation territory of
the nation.
Second, because of Mr.. Cartoons en-
ergetc and acute mentality coupled with
vigorous public spirit and loyalty to
Maine as made manifest by his handling
of the department which he has been in
charge of for so many years, and because
of his familiarity with the best methods
for the further development OF his former
and present good work.
Third. and in sentiment the most i'm
portant issue to my mind. is the fact
that he is one of Names old soldiers Of
whom there are but few left that will
ever appeal again for appointment to
important positions within the gift of the
peoples governor
Carleton served his country faithfully
as young man, and received as YOU
know serious wounds in fighting for the
unfolding and development of the unity
of our country in your behalf and mine,
AS we'll as that of all the citizens of
Maine and the country at large.
As a boy during that most tragic period
of our eountry's history, l have not for
lasts, the assurances that were given the
Bows i'm Blue when they Shouldered their
muskets and left their homes and their
fathers to fight for the overthrow OF hu-
man slavery and the maintenance on
freedom to every man which through the
