Davis can claim an all-absorbing de-
votion to the farmers OF the State in
view OF the fact that he resigned his
position as president of the Farmers
Institute in order that he might be
free to furnish his argument against
state wide prohibition to the wet or
csts. which argument was scattered
broadcast throughout the State. to con-
vince the farmers that prohibition was
a bad thing. 1t was crcditable to Mr..
! Davis that he should have resigned his
position before issuing such n docu-
| mcnt, but his act showed that his OPP
position to prohibition was so much
greater than his devotion to the
farmer that he was willing TO give up
a position where he could help the
farmer. in order 10 fight prohibition.
His opposition to prohibition must in
decd have been strong, If it out
weighed the supreme devotion which
he now Processes for the farmer. Per-
maps II could be justly said that it
was not that he loved the farmer less
but that he hated prohibition more
And IL may be that this accounts for
the fact that. while thousands of others
who voted wet, freely admit their err
ror. and would now vote dry, Mr.. Da-
! Wis has made no such admission and
is unwilling To say that he favors the
continuance of the poli,y of prohibit
tion.
Mr., Davis, during the prohibition
fight, had an opportunity TO choose he
tween his then high official position
or usefulness TO the farmt/ and no.
sition as champion of the legalized IL
quor interests. He made his choice.
let him stand by it. He may love the
farmer now in view OF the coming
election. but there was n prohibition

not first in his affection"

To dispel any allusion that his criti-

Committee was personal, Fitzgerald
