Business Experience.


A great deal is being said about q
business Governor and what course Of
life he should have pursued to give him
the proper experience. Some insist he
should have run for office for forty
years, while others claim he should have
compounded interest.
My friends, for business ability the
hillside farmer Of Tennessee takes the
lead. The banker lends him the money,
takes his notes secured, reserves the
interest in advance, places the note away
and waits for its maturity. The farmer
takes the money, plows and harrows the
land, buys seed and Bows them and
makes the soil to produce. He raises
sheep and hogs, COWS and horses he
educates his children. He visits the
sick and helps the poor and mixes and
commingles with everybody, and knows
little about everything. Who has had
the best experience, the man who lends
the money or the man who puts it to
a useH
tell you that man is best qualified
to be Governor of great people who is
best acquainted with his people In all
phases of life. He must know the wants
and needs of his people before he viii be
able to give them that administration
they desire The first qualification for
Governor should be desire always to do
right. He should stand for Law aud or
der, for morals. for Justice; and his Ideals
should be of the highest type Of man.
