matter of law enforcement Gov

direct to the people:
In the fight for the enforce

desire to appeal directly to the
great masses Of our citizenship
for support and cooperation.

weeks have demonstrated to my
mind that an overwhelming ma

political affiliations, are deter.

The Extraordinary session Of
the Fifty Eighth General Assem-

vt an early hour last Saturday
night without taking q vote on
the law enforcement bills, one Of
which known - the Nuisance

The regulars, representing the
interests Of the sale Of whisky
elsewhere, as we'll as in the lsw.
defying cities, inaugurated
fillibuster on Wednesday before
the close and continued it sue
cessfully until the gavel fell ct
the close of the session. Most Of
the regulars were brazen in the
alliance with the whisky inter
est, but toward the close Andrew
!. Todd, Of Murfreesboro, and
others took the hypocriticaf stand
Of favoring enforcement Of the

outspoken opposition which made
