Harry D. Wilson is making a runaway race

He served two terms in the Legislature and
refused reelection to a third term. Dur
ing the sessions at which he represented his
constituents in the lower house of the Leg

having passed, the separate coach bill for
railroads, the pure milk bill, the bill requir-
