To the Editor OF The Times-Dispatch:
Sir.-1 have read with the deepest in
terest everything that has been said
for and against the candidate for Gov
ernor. and now that the campaign is
drawing to a close I feel that every
man should give the matter mature
thought and weigh we'll his vote before
casting same. for in these strenuous
war times Old Virginia needs a strong
man of the highest type. not only a
man that will command the love and
respect of the whole State and do
honor to the office, but a man Of abil-
ity and experience, who will be compe-
tent to guide the State through some
of the greatest legal and military ques-
lions that have come before the execu-
tive in years.
In very short time there will be
10000 soldiers encamped at Petersburg
and equally many encamped at
jamestown. where the United States
government is now building the larG-
est naval base and aerial school in
the world. Naturally. with SO large a
military population in our midst there
are bound to arise military and legal
questions between the State and the
government. Therefore, IT is necessary
and imperative that Virginia's next
Governor should be Il soldier and law
yer. so as to be fully competent to deal
WIN lhSoS 6iedt pueSNlOnS anu many
others. Where can Virginia better find
such man than in her distinguishc cd
son. Westmorcland Davis who Is a SOL
der. as he graduated from the Vir-
ginia Military Institute with distinc-
ton; he is also lawyer of reputa-
ton and n man of many and various
accomplishments, as his record will
show. There Is no man who has done
more for the bettcrment and uplift of
the State than he has. and there is no
man who has done more for the farm
ers and working people Of tho State
than he has for he has been instru-
mental in having laws passed in their
favor. He got the lime Erinding
plant which has been OF great benefit
TO the farmers of the State. He has
long been a hard worker for good
roads and good causes of all kinds for
the uplift OF his fellow man. His time,
talents and purse have been freely
given wherever he could do any good
There is no man on whom all classes
and conditions of men can so we'll
unite Westmoreland Davis. for
his name stands for justice. truth and
honor.
Therefore I ask all men to vote for
him. for in these trying times we need
n true and tried man of ability and a
strong man. who will conduct the
office OF Governor with not only honor
to himself. but to the state.
