RISK IN RACE
FOR GOVERNOR
AS DEMOCRAT
Lafayette Man Announces
Candidacy in Letter to
John r. Jones.
STATES VIEWS ON ISSUES

James K Risk of Lafayette today
announced his candidacy for the
democratic nomination for governor
of Indiana.
The announcement was contained
in a letter to John R. Jones of
Plymouth, who, as member of the
legislature in 1915. "fathered" the
present primary law. Mr.. Jones, 1t
is understood, will be Mr.. Risks cam
paign manager. Mr.. Risks letter
follows:
II have given your letter Of Feb. 10
very careful consideration and note
what you say in regard to my becoming
a candidate for governor and your rea-
sons for forming an opinion.
"You speak Of my qualifications and
broad acquaintance In Indiana. The ques-
tion Of qualification is an extremely i'm
portant one. I believe ti3f one of the
essential qualifications the democratic
candidate for governor should have is the
knowledge and acquaintance Of men. He
should know men who prey upon gov
ernment in order that government may
he protected from their corrupt and de
hauching influences This is just as es-
sential ~ II Is for a governor to know
men, who are consecrated TO the right
principles Of government and who would
desire TO serve both their party and the
state honestly and efficiently. believing
that the man who serves his state hon
cstly and we'll best serves his party.
II believe that have a sufficient ac-
quaintanCe in the state Of Indiana TO
meet this one qualification.
You say the Risk sentiment is grow
ing stronger, as the political discussions
Of available candidates become more pro
nounced. think. perhaps, you are mis-
taken in regard to this being a Risk
sentiment ! think there is a sentiment
la Indiana, not only In the dem 9cratic
party. but among all citizens, men and
women alike, that candidates must have
convictions and be willing to fgAt for
them. and I believe on this proposition
I can qualify.
STANDS WITHOUT
FEAR OR FAVOR.
IT note what you say In regard to the
machine opposition and / am or the
opinion that the machine has realized
long ago that ! was unstraid to de-
clare nv position on questions efecting
the party's organization. and to defend
my position without fear or favor.
You are Of he opinion that the ma
chimes outspoken opposition to my pro-
nounced views on the temperance and
vouan's suffrage question is not their
real reason for opposing me. but that
you think their real opposition Is due to
the demornlizing defeat Of the machine
in the direct primary fight during the
1918 legislature and that the machine
realized that my management Of the prl-
mary lght had much to do in securing
the passage of the bill.
You. perhaps. are right I'm your final
conclusion. ! think the greatest blow
that the old democratic machine ever
received was the passage Of the direct
