], K. MASON STANDS
WITH REPUBLICANS
Nominee for Joint Represent.
ative Says He Will Not
Join Progressives.

James X. Mason, nominated by the
Republicans as joint representative
from Wayne and Fayette counties, in a
statement made public today, declared
that he will remain on the Republican
ticket. He affirms his belief in the
Progressive principles, but says he has
a deep founded conviction that he
should remain the nominee of the Re-
publican party.
His statement in part is appended ::
Bentonville, Ind, Sept. 10, 1912
To the Progressives of Wayne and
Fayette Counties:
During the past few years we have
heard great number of our Office hol-
ders charged with graft or political
0rickery.
During all this time l have hoped
that some day 1 might have an oppor.
tunity to demonstrate to myself and
others that | could officially serve the
public In way that would meet with
their approval rather than subject me
to their charges of fraud or dishonesty
Controlled by these motives I an
nounced myself before the spring pri
mary as candidate for joint repre-.
sentative from Wayne and Fayette
counties.
In accepting that nomination there
was placed upon my shoulders the
greatest responsibility of my life
My pledge to the people then con.
stituting the Republican party OF
: Wayne and Fayette counties was that
would not desert nor neglect the task
assigned me.
I recognize the need of radical
change in our state constitution and
believe that legislation looking to a
constitutional convention should re-
ceive our earnest attention at this
time
I favor a carefully framed law es-
tablishing the initiative referendum
and recall.
l recognize the demand of our peo
pie for equal suffrage.
| favor the minimum wage scale for
women. the rigid control of all bust
ness combinations, and the promotion
of better educational facilities intro.
ducing agriculture as a study in rural
schools.
| favor the repal of the registration
law in its present expensive form.
am in favor of state primary cleo
tion law by which the present plan of
assessing candidates may be abolished
1t has been stated repeatedly that
il l remain the nominee of the Repub-
lican ticket I, by that action, endorse
every crooked method employed by
that party in the past.
Can you frame a more unjust pro-
position?
Certainly should not be condemned
for an action over which l have no
control
| still believe that you, when you
see my position through unbiased eyes,
will not place other discoura gements
victory for progressive legislation.
While l cannot but appreciate what
any man would regard as a token OF
your unwavering confidence, in your
tender of the Progressive nomination
I have deep-founded conviction that
I should remain the nominee of the
Republican ticket and with this decla
ration of Progressive principles I can
only ask that political justice be &C
corded me by the people of Wayne
and Fayette counties to the end that
may be chosen to represent them in
the lower branch of the Indiana Leg
islature. JAMES K. MASON.

defeating me. I brand the author of
these statements, whoever he may be,
liar and the father of lies, and un-
worthy Of the name Of Lexingto-

To the Voters of Lexington county:
AS it will in the short time, be i'm
possible to see the voters personally
before the second primary election,
through the medium of the county
paper desire to thank you sincerely
for the handsome vote I received in
the first election, aud I am satisfied
that I would have been elected in that
election, but for complications which
arose during the campaign, which cost
me hundreds of votes because I had
the manhood not to dodge, but my
countrymen whether you voted Blease
or Jones, I say God bless you, you are
all my people, and I shall know no
difference, in the language of that
magnanimous statesman Abraham
Lincoln, I say with malice toward
none, with charity for all, with firm
ness in the right, as God gives me to
see the right, I will do my duty if you
elect me to the State Senate on the
10th of September instant.
Very sincerely yours,

To The Voters.

Through the columns of The Dis
patch I wish to express my sincere ap-
probation and heartfelt gratitude to
the democrats of Lexington county
for the handsome vote they gave me
On August 27th for the Office of coro-
ner. I wish IL were possible for me
to thank each of you personally.
The returns have placed me in the
second race with Mr.. Weed; and, ow-
ing to the very short period between
the two elections, it will be physical
impossibility for me to make a thor
ough canvas of the county, and trust
thai my friends will be kind enough
tolook after my interest on next Tues
day.
While I have nothing to say against
my opponent, and while the salary is
very small, the office is nevertheless
one of the most important within the
gift of the people, and I ask that You
carefully weigh our qualifications be-
fore you cast your ballots.
Again thanking you and assuring
you that if I am elected I will dis
charge the duties Of the Office with f.
deity to every trust, am,
Most sincerely yours.
Jos. M. Caughman.
