r. S. ROSE
Candidate for Circuit Judge

That is the real issue not who
is for one candidate or against
another.
And that is the issue j. G.
Bird has tried every way in his
power to side step, dodge,
evade and becloud.
He refused to accept Catron S
proposition that the four of us
be examined touching our quail
ifications, by first class lawyers,
and all but the best qualified
man quit.
He refused to accept my pro-
position to quit the track and
let him be elected if he would
tell what subjects a candidate
for law license is examined
on, or any of the half dozen other
questions | put to him on the
first day of the Whitley Circuit
Court.
He is now refusing to meet his
opponents on the stump and to
let the voters, decide after see
ing and hearing them all, decide
for themselves which they think
best qualified for the Office.
And he is now running round
the country, refusing to make an
issue as between himself and
me.
If that isn't an effort to take
the voters snipe hunting then
what name would you call 1t by?
As to that | would say that |
have never represented Chas.
Finley or his Company in a SIM
gle case in my life.
] l have taken more money out
of his pockets and put it into
the pockets of miners or their
widows or orphans than all the
rest of the lawyers at the Will
liamsburg bar and the records
II will prove it.

backing Bird is known as the
worst bunch Of election crooks
that ever cursed a county.
Nobody need be called as wit
ness to that except j. O. Bird
for he spent years of his life de-
nouncing them as ballot thieves,
ballot. box thieves, election
thieves, crooks and criminals.
This race should be run alone
on the merits of the men who
are candidates mot on the mer-
it's of any other man or set OF
men.
The people are entitled to the
best qualified man they can get
for the 81, 10000 they are going
to pay him.
Who is that best qualified
man?

/ was against Chas. Finley
when lie was a candidate for
Chairman 1T this District against
j. B. Snyder and put Snyder in
nomination before the county
Convention.
At a time when j. G. Bird was
County Attorney of Whitley
county and in a position to be
of service to laboring men, |
represented the men at the
Cook JellicO mines in this couu-
ty when the operators were try
ing to put them out after they
had organized. Bird did moth
ing for them.
If you don't believe this, write
to John Jelfries, Pineville, KY,
who was there at the time and
was then and is now an officer in
and organizer for the U. NJ. a.
Also to Dan Vanderpool, Pack
ard, KY, W. ID. Moore, Will

l have always represented the
men, and l have never repre-
sented the Corporations.
And if j. @. Bird THINKS he
can convince the la boring men
that. after a lifetime of service
to them, | am corporationist
simply because one operator de-
spies ne little less than he
does him.
If he can do that with men
who know my record he can do
more than l think he can do.
Who is the best qualified man

Judge2
That is the question and that
is the issue. Let Mr.. Bird try ia
