BAD FAITH
IS SHOWN
Republicans Refused to
be Bound by Laws
OF State

Attorney General chas. West was
in the city few hours this morning,
stopping here on his way to Freder-
tex.
Speaking Of the meeting Of state
candidates yesterday, called at the
instance Of Joe McNeal, republican
candidate for governor, for the pur-
pose of agreeing on plans TO insure q
fair election, Mr.. West said it denion-
strated several things very clearly.
The republicans came with several
propositions already drawn up and
they wanted to give us ten minutes 70
accept them and then adjourn OF
course we wouldn't agree to anything
like that They finally consented 70
Iengthen the time 70 30 minutes. we
then announced our willingness to ac-
cept all their proposals except where
they were in conflict with the law OF
the state. They refused to agree to
this latter condition. Both the repub-
Iicans and socialists refused to go on
record for the enforcement Of the
grandfather clause although it Is a
part Of the law Of the state.
In my opinion the republicans
showed bad faith when they refused to
be bound by the laws Of the state.
McNeal is against the grandfather
clause and he won't dare 10 say that
he is in favor Of enforcing il. He is
also against the .Iim Grow law, the
rate laws and the hatk guaranty law
and does anybody expect him to en-
force them?
'McNeal's slogan. less politics.
really means less law he is opposed
to enforcing law that he doesn't like
and this was shown clearly in the FL
Reno meeting. Hesis posing as a busi-
ness mans candidate but he would be
as destructive Of law as vandaI He
is making common cause with the 50
cialists in the war on the law Of the
state"
