ELLYSON'S MANAGER

managing the State campaign Of Lieu

Ing statement to a reporter for The

quarters in Murphy's Hotel last night:
II have read with some little in
terest the claim made by Attorney
General Pollard that he has 3O,656
committals pledged to him for Cover
nor, which is nearly 1000 SHIT of
the votes polled by him in the primary
of 1913 when he defeated Judge Samuel
w. Williams for Attorney General by
the narrow margin of 1.0S4 votes.
I'm that primary Mr.. Ellyson was n
candidate for Lieutenant Governor and
had strong opposition. yet the records
show that Mr.. Ellyson polled 47,516
votes. a lead of more than $1,000 over
Mr.. Pollard, whose total vote was 3d.
ESQ.
Judging by information received
daily at headquarters from all sec
lions Of Virginia. this same ratio will
prevail in the primary of this year, be-
cause the friends of MIR. Ellyson are
just as loyal. just as active and just
as anxious to elect him Governor as
they were to honor him with the sec
ond place on the ticket four years ago.
"a comparison of the primary vote
in 1913 will also show that Mr.. Ely
son received a majority vote in seven
ty-five OF the 100 counties in Virginia
over Mr.. Pollard. and that he led Mr..
Pollard in sixteen of the nineteen
cities. including Richmond.

SUPERINTENDENT HARRIS.
DENIES POLITICAL RUMOR
Henrico County School Head Sets mt
Rest Reports About Discrimination
In Selecting Trustees

In statement issued yesterday
morning by ]. D. Harris. superinten-
dent of the Henrico County public
schools. attention of the patrons of
Henrico County. and particularly of
Fairfield District. is called to the fact
that no credence whatever should be
given to certain false reports and
rumors in circulation concerning school
matters.
1t appears from Superintendent
Harris's statement that he and GER
tain mebers of the electoral board
have been falsely accused of circulat-
ing petitions whose object is to sup
port or discriminate against certain
applicants for the trusteeship in Fair
field District; it being his belief that
these falsehoods are the Preparations
of scheming politicians.
The following was the statement is
sued by Superintendent Harris yester-
day:
Several prominent citizens and pa
irons of the public schools of the
county have called my attention to
certain false statements that have been
and are being circulated now in Fair
field District. presumably for political
purposes.
For the welfare of the schools
desire to state that the statement that
the electoral board circulated a petit
ton against for any applicant for
school trustees in that district is alb
solutely false and really too absurd to
pay any attention to. 1t is my policy
always to vote for the best man for the
said position; also ! deem 1t my duty
to look into the qualifications of ap-
plicants before casting my vote.
Various statements have been made
why the county school board was not
| called recently to reconsider it's action.
1 will say that If any citizen OF Hen
rico desires to know the facts in the
case. If he will get in touch with my
office I will take pleasure in giving him
the facts as they really are"
