Representative William j. Fields
is one of those Democrats who has
no sympathy with efforts that are
being made to arouse the farmers
of the country against the coming
Democratic revision of the tariff.
MIR. Fields represents an agricultur-
al district, and he believes that the
tariff on the products of the farm
in this country is of absolutely no
benefit to the farmer, and is not
afraid to say so.
/ In an interview given to the Cour-
ter-Journal, Mr.. Fields exposes the
lshopworn argument of the Repub
nicans that the protective tariff is
,of benefit first of all to the farm
,er. and he intimates strongly that
dhe farmers of the country should
mot stand in the way of reduc-
rion in the cost of their clothing
and farm implements by asking for
h retention of tariff on their own
prodncts which is useless to them.
Il favor general reduction of
the tariff" said Mr.. Fields, First.
because the country for the last
four years has been demanding
such action; and, second, because

The Big Sandy news., 1913-02-28

, ever, we must have some sort of a
report this week from every candi-
date in the race. If you have no
subscriptions to turn in but want
| to continue in the race, then let
us hear from you anyway. There
are 10 prizes in the big list and
every candidate has a good oppor-
tunity to win one of them.
If there has been any mistake
in the count of any contestants votes
up to the present date, the mat
ter must be called to the attention
of the contest manager before next
Wednesday night. Otherwise the
standing as published today. must
be taken as correct.
About New Subscriptions.
When you get a subscription. be
sure and find out whether 1t Is old
or new and mark 1t so on the part
of the receipt which you turn into
the office with your remittance.
Otherwise, we are liable to be de-
layed in getting the paper started.
Also be sure to get the address cor
rect.
Where a subscription is changed
from one member of the family to
another. 1t is not considered New
Subscriber and votes will be issued
on it as If it were an old subscrip-
ton.
Thousands of Votes Polled.
Thousands and thousands of votes
have been polled lately and many
new changes will be noted. Many
of the contestants probably turned
in nearly all their reserve vote to
keep near the top. It's good idea
to poll enough votes to keep some
where near the top for then you
catch great deal of the scattering
vo-e. A great many people have no
personal friends in the contest and
they usually vote for someone in
their neighborhood or someone of
whom they have heard friends speak
Every day people come into the Of
flee or mail their subscriptions and
vote that way.
A Few Suggestions.
Now for a few suggestions as to
your plan of campaign. Never me-
glect TO see anyone personally. If
you have reason to believe that they
have not already pledged their votes
Sometimes the prospects which ap-
pear the most improbable plan out
the best.
When you have your prospect Sc
cured get him or her to put you on
the track of another or more un-
pledged prospects. The result will
be that your votes will accumulate
more and more daily and increase
in volume, like a SNOWFALL rolling
down hill.
Again, don't be afraid to adver-
tise the fact that you are can
didate. here, there and evrywhere
throughout the length and breadth
of this part of Kentucky. Tell
everybody you meet the glad It'd
ings and impress upon them the
fact that you are in the race for
one reason only that is to win.
You will be surprised how the
of your enthusiasm Will
persuade others. Even the most
callous cannot fail to accord GER
tain amount of admiration to the
plucky competitor After you have
left, 1t is quite as likely as not that
the recipient of your most recent
heart to heart talk will tell his
riends something like this;
Friends, you haven't promis-
ed your votes to anyone yet. I've
got friend who deserves to win
so )give her the votes" That's the
sort of an impression to leave be-
hind. Again don't hesitate to ask
for the biggest subscription at the
outset.

may no duty of government be un=
filled and no hidden wound go unre-
dressed. Thus may the glory be spread
abroad and these our words be echoed
far and wide; that those in distant
lands who hear may rejoice, our
neighbors on every side give us praise,
and may the new life Of the old ma
tion be lasting and unending. Who of
us can dare to be neglectful of his
duties ?"
This should be met by prompt
recognition of the new republic by
the United States, as no doubt it will
be. How recognition can be withheld
by Russia can be understood, but the
United States cannot logically refuse
to grant to the new republic full and
ample recognition.
