That the major made a most favorable impression was demonstrated by the close attention he received from the audience throughout his speech. He emphasized the fact that if elected to fill MT.

Burnet's policies in behalf of the immi grafton bill and gave as an illustration the trouble ex perienced in his company, which was composed of many sons of Italy who were illiterate and could not under stand their responsibilities in regard to patriotism.
 Major Davis spoke of his policies in favor of national aid for public schools, saying in brief that the government should take as much interest in making men as in making good roads. Major Davis was accorded Inc attention and made good impression upon his hear CTS by his easy manner and clear ex- planation of his policies in case he was elected. He was most modest in his speech as to his military life and the deeds which won for him in a few short months the title of major, but rather insisted that he wished to gain the office through merit and fitness for the position
