A CARD TO THE DEMOCRATIC
VOTERS OF BOURBON COUNTY

To the Democratic Voters of Bour-
bon:
When / announced myself several
weeks ago as candidate for the Dem
ocratic nomination for Coroner of
Bourbon county it was my intention
to make an active canvass, but the
press of daily employment during
busy season has so far made this i'm
possible, and | have only been sue
cessful in presenting my claims to a
small percentage of the voters. On
the other hand my opponent, with I'M
limited time and resources has taken
every advantage in furthering his
candidacy.
Notwithstanding the fact that l
have been greatly handicapped in this
respect / have a number of active
| friends who are presenting my claims
and beg the kind indulgence of the
voters of the county whom l may not
be able to see before the August pri-
mary.
Aside from taking this advantage
my opponent has availed himself of
the opportunity to circulate, with a
view of doing me harm in my race, I'M
founded reports that 1 was the tool
or candidate of certain politicians,
hostile to his interest, and who were
| instrumental in bringing me out in an
effort to defeat him in the primary
Such reports were false, and in so
finding, my opponent thought not a
moment of making a correction of his
statements, but left the impression
with large number that | was being
used by the politicians, thereby doing
me a great injustice, and in the face OF
an agreement that we would resort tC
on underhand tactics.
| l cannot but feel that my opponent
has injured me to a certain extent by
the circulation of such a falsehood
and / take this method of setting my
self right before those who might be
under a false impression.
1t is nothing more than a matter o.
Justice to myself that the voters O
Bourbon should compare the record!
of the opposing candidates in the race
for Coroner and it is with a great dea
of pride that l can point to mine with
out a blush of shame at having vic
lated pledge or refusing to supper
a nominee after participating in a con
lvention in which he was nominated
and who as participant was in homo
bound to support.
| This record in my regard has beer
handed down for almost a century, AM
it is matter of selfpride that l stanc
by it.
On the other hand l can point to al
instance in the political career of m.
lopoonent, in which he falterd at hi
pledge, and, after participating in ;
convention at which Democratic
candidate was nominated for Magis
trate, devoted his energies in the reg
ular election to have him defeated b!
"a Republican, nominated at Repub
llican convention, and at the instance
lOf disgruntled Democrats.
The Democrats of Bourbon SHOULD
weigh the matter carefully before
casting their vote in the August pri
mary, and consider fully the Democ
racy of the opposing candidates be
fore reaching a decision in the matter
With this before the voters 1 trust
to be favorably considered.
| Very truly yours,
(AdY.) GEO. NJ. KISER.

the hearing before the House commit
tee on ways and means, today.
Members of the committee emphasiZ-
ed the majority sentiment in favor of
free meats and strong trend toward
free cattle, IN accord with the general
policy of the Democrats, last year, to
transfer the necessities of life to the
free list, including free sugar and free
humber.
Protest against putting cattle and
meats on the free list was voiced by
S. H. Cowan of Texas, spokesman for
the cattle industry west Of the Miss
issippi river. He said free meat would
mean a flood of cheaper meats from
South America and ruin TO the indus

The joint note says that in case of

does il mean that Ike Powers them
