Kansas City, declaring that elections
had been more honest in the last 10
years than in any other city Of a sim
liar size in the United States. Reed
also expressed opposition to Federal

Representative W. P. Borland. Jack

the Importance Of honest elections.
Reed was followed by Judge william

Reed in these words:
