E. T. STAPLES ANSWERS
Continued from Page One. }

Can you give us names of few or
even one of those you say are enc
mics of the home industry" who
are at work to assassinate it and
turn it over to the electric trust?
Have you ever, in all your life, paid
half as much Ashland tax or done
half as much gratuitous work for the
city as ANY ONE of these men you
slander by insinuations have done in
year?
Can you give us the names of any
one of the people you refer to who
assert that if the bonds are defeated,
the next step will be to take over
the city plant? challenge you to
do so, or even show justification of
such suspicious.
Can you justify your dirty insinua-
tions that there are hired enemies
of the home industry?
Please undertake to get the truth
and in so doing you will find that
those who may honestly differ with
you are as friendly to the interest OF
the city and to the present electric
plant as you, even though they may
favor waiting a while befort voting
more bonds.
Let us accord to each citizen the
right of his opinion without insinu-
ating that he is a crook because he
differs. Let the question of bonds
bu settled by one vote, and the judg-
mont of business management of the
proceeds of bonds and taxes and the
general affairs of the city be consd-
cred by another vote.
Mr.. Briggs is an old resident He
has always been an ardent worker
for Ashland's welfare. He has al
ways been at the head of sub5crip-
tions for charity and public necessi-
ties. He has been three times at the
head of the Commercial Club and
the club is proud of his sincere and
efficient work. He has raised a large
family in your midst, who not only
he but the people of Ashland may be
proud of. And if elected mayor, the
people will be proud of his admins
