bly, opposed TO giving them unre-
stricted suffrage as men enjoy it.
The county government proposi-

the candidates. Mr.. Hines opposes
the present system and would elect
the commissioners by the people;
Mr.. Bales, who is responsible for the
present system, apparently is stand
ing for election on that platform,
coupled with his entire record in the
legislature during previous sessions.
Some of the candidates are more or
less reticent on this question and it
has the appearance OF "hot brick"
In some of their hands.
All of the candidates declared
their allegiance to the country, to
Woodrow Wilson and the Demo
cratic party, and President Wilson
was characterized by Mr. Horton as
the greatest man America ever pro-
duced. Likewise prohibition was
endorsed by all the candidates. some
of them saying they wanted the
dryest of "bone-dry" legislation
Education and good roads were en-
dorsed by all. and Mr.. Hines was
strongly in favor of compulsory edu-
cation.
The campaign opened Tuesday at
Pclair and the Wednesday meeting
vas held at Van Wyck Today the
candidates are at Tradcsville and to!
morrow they will be at the Lancas
ter cotton mill.
