Blease for Third Termg
In connection with the above ru-
NOR, Senator Allen Iohnstone OF New
berry Is quoted as saying: II know
Cole Blease and his ways. If he

run for governor TO save himself
And If he does, he viii be electeu
again, and 1T looks to me like that is
what he is fixing to do

what they are. worth, but there ufl-
doubtedIy is d fratricidal strife being

date Tor. each -office from senator
down ftoS coroner;, but will the polii-
tipiansgl lay aside personAl feelings and
petty ambitious in order to do that?
sTheEeis the rub, and with the four
Blease men, one half mad half, and
one puss-fOotef Iii the race for COVER
nor dividing the Blease vote 1t looks
like a cinch for Clinkscales and Man

gether.
