by Mr.. Hepburn as the basis for his
changing his support from Pollard to
Ellyson:
Rev. David Heburn. Richmond. Va:
Dear Sir,-l have read the copy Of
your letter to ME of the second instant,
published in to-days Virginian.
Notwithstanding your denials and
charges. l repeat-and 1 think that
your letter fully bears me out-that
the only matter discussed between YOU
and Mr. Pollard and myself on the Nir-
ginia Beach car was the question of
unfair treatment which had been &C.
corded to Mr.. Pollard by the Rich
raond virginian. You know that this
is true. and your endeavor to make It
appear. from certain language in Mr..
Pollard's letter to you OF the four
teenth instant. that there was a general
criticism by Mr.. Pollard of the temper
auce leaders OF the State is thorough
~ disinGenuous. Mr. Pollard did COM
plain OF the way in which the Vir-
ginian, under tho domination Of
Cannon. had treated him. but this was
the sum and substance of his complaint.
1 say that your letter discloses-un :.
Intentionally on your part-that what
1 say is true. You state that. upon
your return to Richmond YOU investi-
gated Mr.. Pollard's charges. What
charges did you investigate? Let your
own letter give the answer-charges
against the Richmond Virginian, the
| only charges which had been made or
discussed.
And SO far were you. apparently,
from being displeased with Mr.. Pol
lard on account Of these charges: 80
far were you apparently from thinking
that they were sufficient to cause you
to withdraw your support from Mr..
Pollard. that you promised to investi-
gate them. and to use your effort to
| have Mr.. Pollard treated with greater
fairness in tho future.
In your letter to Mr.. Pollard, an
| nounclng the withdrawal OF your sup
port, you assured him of your con-
tinued high personal regard for him,
notwithstanding your Withdrawal: and
put the latter solely upon the ground
of his attitude towards certain tenn
perance leaders and the necessity of
harmony in the prohibition ranks. In
your letter to me. however. you say
that you were n. that time Of the optn-
ion that Mr.. Pollard had oeen un-
just in his complaint against the Rich
mond Virginian; that he was more
interested in an antimachino victory
than in the cause of prohibition, and
that you had found that hs had play,
| ed dirty trick on the management
of the Richmond Virginian. and had,
when caught. lied about 1t. and that
y was for these reasons that you had
been compelled to withdraw your sup
| port from him. 1 am willing to leave
to the people OF the State the cues

OF RICHMOND AUTOMOBILE CLUB
Robert d. Airport. president of the
Richmond Automobile Club. which ad-
dressed an open letter to the three can
didatcs for the nomination OF Governor,
has received the following statement
from John Garland Pollard:
The matter OF building and MAIN
tanning good roads cannot be consid-
cred n matter of mere local concern.
The district, the county. the State and
the nation must cooperate in a work
OF such magnitude and Importance.
The responsibility Of the bad condition
of any Of our great highways cannot
be evadcd by the State-it Is the states
business to see that her highways are
in good condition. and she cannot ex-
cusc herself by placing the blame on
the counties. If I am elected Cover
nor shall seek to promote the pas
sage and enforcement Of laws that will
rid Virginia Of the discredit which has
come to her by allowing parts OF some
OF her most important highways to re-
main in almost impossible condition.
Good roads have become necessity OF
modern life and any state that neg
lccts this important matter Will be left
behind in the march OF progress"
