al District and we present him to the

training and experience, statesman
who had been tried ad ever foud
faithful and loyal, man of great in
tellect and characters "a profound law
yer and a democrat without guile In

AUDIENCE ON CANDIDACY FOR CONGRESS

and when he retired LOG had been es-
! tablished. He also recalled how he
secured federal aid for Purvis. when
almost destroyed by a cyclone in the
| face of strong opposition. He pointed
out the handicap he worked under
| by the fact of the administration at
that time being strongly republican.
He said he favored federal aid for
good roads.
He then took up what he said was
the only real issue-"loyalty to the
American government" After re-
viewing the causes leading up to the
outbreak of the war in Europe, and
the causes leading up to Americas
participation, he declared it was q
righteous war. 'Unworthy," he said
ito breathe free air or consort with
free American people and fit only
for the iron heel of Prussian tyranny
is the man in this county who is a.
gainst the government"
He said he was 100 per cent Ameri-
can and if sent to Congress he would
tand by every measure recommended
by President Wilson. He said he felt
deeply in this matter because he had
two sons in the army, one under age
who insisted on volunteering.
He defined the duties of those who
cannot go to the front. The man who
contributes to war activities, who
helps to raise food, who helps in any
government work is doing his duty.
America, he said, was sending the
finest product in the world--its boys
to the front and too much cannot be
done for them. He closed by paying
a touching tribute to the loyalty and
glory of women.
At the conclusion of the speaking
the following resolution was intro
duced by R. C.. Cowan and adopted:
