dead on his hands. The people
know that Hooper was defending
boot-leggers while Rye was pros
ecuting offenders OF the temper
ance laws. The change in text
books, and the increased cost of
the present system as manipulated
by Hooper, is a thing which does
not suit the tax payers. Hooper
is mad and it is plain he sees the
handwriting on the wall. AT one
appointment in West Tennessee
last week he spoke to 1871 people
by actual count, and at another he
spoke to $50. He seems to think
all he has to do to answer Rye's
arguments is to denounce some
body as telling a lie. He has been
severely criticised for telling vul-
Gar anecdotes on the stump. The
Hooper papers are making des-
perate attempt to disguise the
truth about the crowds that hear
Rye and the enthusiasm which is
manifest at every speaking. The
Roosevelt people fully realize that
when R Roosevelt called him Mr..
Facing Both Ways he gave him
a name which pictured him in his
true light. Rye is marching to
victory. Hear him at Newport,
Friday. October 23rd.
