HOW THE CANDIDATES
STAND
HOW

The following is clipped from
the Home and State, of Dallas.
1t sheds light on a question that
is ofttimes asked us, and for the
benefit of our readers, both pro
and anti, we reproduce 1t. That
the prohibition question is an is
sue in the present campaign for
state offices and United States
offices is no longer a thing that
can be denied. The ants are
going to vote as nearly solid for
anti candidates as they know
how and if the pros dc not line
up, we will not get our prorata
of men in state offices. Study
the list and learn the position Of
these candidates as nearly as you
can from it. And everything
being equal otherwise the pro
had best take the pro, while IN
some instances it might not be
best. still as a whole this is our
idea about it. \ And in the name
of good judgment, sobriety and
clean politics stay clear of the
wishy-washy fellow who is afraid
to come out on one side or the
other. The Home and State
