TO the Voters of Preston County: ;

To the Voters OF Preston County:
A strenuous effort is being made BY
the county machine I'm the closing DAYS
of the campaign to discredit Honor
able John j Cornwell in the eyes OF
the people of Preston county. There
being absolutely nothing i'm either MIR.
Cornwell's personal or political record
that is furnished i'm any way. they at
tempt TO prejudice the voters by say
ing that Cornwell will be controlled
by National Democratic Committee
man Clarence W. Watson. IL elected
They have no reason TO say this.
Watson is a Democrat. Cornwell Is a
Democrat. Woodrow Wilson is a Dem
ocrat. Watson could not do other
wise than support MIR. Cornwell. who
was nominated by large majority
and without any faint OF FRAUD. force
OF coercion. which is more than Judge
Robinson can truthfully say.
We might answer their charges nv
saying that Davis Elkins is coal
operator. and that Robinson will be
controlled by Elkins II he is elected
There are no more labor organizations
in Elkins mines than in the Fairmont
region, where large number OF indie
pendent mines are run by Republ-
cans. and where the labor organiza-
tons are bitterly fought by the same
Republicans as 10y the Consolidation
Coal company.
In Preston county one OF the chief
spokesman for the labor organizations
is Senator Sam b. Montgomery. yet
Morgan Orr, n Republican and n
brother-in-law OF Montgomery's, Is OPP
posed to the labor organizations At
Howesville. this county. Isaac Conn.
one of the Robinson leaders, is a SUI
perintendent of the coal works there.
and claims to control the local situa-
ton.
So you see, my friends. that the coal
operators of the state have allied
themselves with both sides according
TO their political inclination, and that
there is no concerted action on either
side in favor OF either Judge Robinson
or Senator Cornwell.
1t is the intention OF Mr.. Cornwells
friends i'm Preston county as else
where. to make his campaign on mer-
it's and records, and not on prejudice
or personal abuse. and we feel sure
that the honest people OF the county
will appreciate that fact
We are appealing for votes TO the
people of Preston county. on our prom
Use To give them an economic, business
administration, free from eXtrava-
gance, waste. pay roll agents, political
machines. and last but not least Hat
ieldism. There are peoplei II Preston
county who are followers of the state
machine who are drawing down huge
salaries with liberal expense accounts
that have not shown any benefit or
actual work done for the state, but on
the other hand are engaged in other
lines of endeavor while on the state
pay roll. We think it should be stop
ped, and are willing to trust John J.
Cornwell to stop IT, as he says he will
do.
The issue is clear cut. The voters
are the jury. Let them decide.
Yours sincerely.

Chairman Democratic Committee
OF Preston County.
