Frank Sanders of Oklahoma,

west of Mike the horse wheeled
around in front of the car and
in addition to having a leg brok-

wise that it was necessary to
shoot the horse to put it out of

Gardner at Brunswick

On his way from Kansas City
to Fayette Col. F. D. Gardner,
leading candidate for gover-
nor stopped off at Brunswick
and for nearly an hour Wednes-
day night addressed a very large
crowd considering that the notice
of his coming was so short. He
left Brunswick for Fayette, stop
ping over night at Salisbury and
meeting many citizens and far
mers of the neighborhood.
There were nearly a hundred
automobiles lined up at the de-
pot at Brunswick to meet the
popular candidate, and the Gard
ner Club had the band out and
nearly all its members.
President Bowman of the club
introduced the speaker and the
the Secretary. Arthur Wallace
had number one arrangements
perfected for the occasion. To
Mr.. Wallace is due in large meas
ure the organization of the club
and general boosting for Col.
Gardner. The illness of Col.
Gardners wife disarranged all
his campaign plans for the last
two weeks, and what with con-
slant attention to her and after
her departure for California do
ing his best night and day to fill
some of his broken dates, the
man is pretty we'll worn out, but
his speech at Brunswick was
given the closest attention and
was all that could be desired.
His explanation of the
bank bill which bears his name
was convincing, and when he
said to the large crowd that if
the democratic party of the state
felt that there was another
among the candidates for COVER
nor who could best serve the in
terest Vt the people and party.
he was more than willing that
that man should receive the NOM
tination, he was most appreciat-
ed.

To Voters of Charlton County:

If l have been denied the op-
portunity of seeing you during
my canvass for Representative
of this County, l want you to
know that this failure to do so is
the result of conditions over
which | had no power.
dare say there is not a candi-
date in this campaign who will
see all the voters. In the num-
Der of unseen voters will be some
of my Oldest and best friends.
AS the rest of my time will be
taken up in speaking, l will not
be able to give more time to the
individual voter,
| believe it is peculiarly desir-
able that the position of candi-
dates for law making offices be
known to the people, and to that
end will say that | shall, if elect
ed, vote for no bill which would
take away from the people the
right to pass on any question:
that | favor convict labor on the
public roads: that | believe that
navigation of the great Missouri
river should be encouraged in
every possible way: that corpora
tions should be regulated both
with referance to a fair return on
the Capitalinvested and the inter-
ests of the public: that extrav-
agant expenditures should be
discontinuedand therevenueshow
a surplus without increase of tax
alton instead of a shortage. Let
my opponents enlighten voters on
what they have as an excuse for
asking for the nomination at the
hands of the democrats of this
county. That | could
not see and tell you your
consideration and support are
desired and valued, is my only
regret.
Very respectfully yours

for this nomination. l have not

people of the county. l sincere

you do not be misled by articles
put out on the eve of the elec-
ton.

Denial of False Reports.

When my late husband, P. R.
O'Brian died in the fall of 1914
the county committee placed
Robert Hurts name on the ticket
to fill out the unexpired term.
When he became sheriff he en-
tered into an agreement with me
that he would deduct $500 per
month from the earnings of the
office as his salary and pay the
balance of the fees collected over
to me to meet the obligations of
my husband. This agreement
had been suggested at the time the
committee appointed him. Just
on the eveof the primary elec-
tion word has come to me that
some persons, evidently desirous
of injuring the candidacy of
Robert Hurt are circulating the
report that he has collected
and kept all the fees of sheriff's
office during the time that he
has served.
/ am sure that this story is be-
Observation-Disclosures l am
writing this letter that the dem.
ocratic voters of Charlton county
may know that this story is alb

Robert Hurt has dealt fairly with
me in every particular. Every
dollar that has been earned by
the sheriff's Office had been paid
over to me as soon as it was col
lected and | have paid Robert a
salary of $500 per month as
was the original agreement.
| trust that the voters of this
county will not be influenced by
the wickedly false report that is
being circulated to the contrary.

DR.. S. P. Towles,
Moberly, Missouri.
My Dear Doctor:
/ have your letter inquiring in
to the standing of Judge W. w.
Rucker in the house. He is
chairman of one of the biggest
committees of the house of repre-
sentatives and has been for six
years, or three congresses.
which would seem to be a suffi-
cient answer as to his standing.
Men do not get to be chairman
of big committees in the house
OF Representatives unless they
are able men and good
workmen. He is the author
of several very important bills
and is at this very minute on
the floor of the house plotting
through a bill which is intended
to break up the use Of money in
politics. That is. the corrupt
and unnecessary use. He is uni
versally regarded as a first rate
representative.
Yours very truly.

he got to Washington. 1t is too
late to regulate him after he is
elected and Mr.. Lozicr should
outline some of his views on ma
tional questions before he makes
a request for votes. Leaving
out of the argument the presum-
ton Lozier exhibits in coming to
this county and asking voters to
pass over to him an office held so
honorably by one of our citizens
without offering some excuse
better than merely wanting our
man put out to let him in, there
there is good ground for viewing
his aspiration with considerable
suspicion. Yes, suspicion, for he
is groomed and directed and we
belIve, controlled by Jim White
Gotten who is in evidence in this
county in various forms, backing
the Lozier campaign Why? No
denial of Whitecotten.s right to
swarm about over the district
in the interest of whom he desir-
es to support, but when he has
been at it for years and is still
active against Rucker in favor of
any one he can persuade to run,
we reiterate, suspicion is well
placed. Mr.. Loziers entry into
the the race was at the instance
of Whitecotten and a few who
wanted post offices they could
not pretend to fill properly and
so did not get them. The &C.
tive ones against Rucker in this
county and there are few, must
surely expect to get from Lozier
what Judge Rucker refused.
Otherwise, why the sacrifice of
time and treath against the dis
tinguished home candidate?
Judge Rucker has been most
careful to recomend no one for
public place who was not COM
petent. If some of those he re-
fused to reccomend are to be fav-
ored by Lozier because of their
support, in several places in the
district as we'll as in this county
the public service will get its
filst backset in years. Is it ami
mostly against Rucker or hope
of getting a salary as figurehead
in some appointive Office that is
actuating some of the vicious
electioneering against him? So
far as local aspirants for the place
Judge holds are concerned, they
or there may be but one, may
feel that it would be better to
defeat the Judge with some man
outside the county, having no
chance whatever against him in
this county, but will still assist
the district in taking care of it.

calamity.
