ing for the advancement of the sheep industry in our state. Having
achieved some prominence as a result, he is, Of course, an object of
attack by Hanna and his associates. There is not a thing in Prayer
Milers record that is subject to fair attack. lie was assaied because
he is running like a scared wolf and is likely to be elected.
Oliver Lea, of Otero county, Is a pioneer cattleman. lie is q cool,
courageous citizen. His independence and his ability are recognized.
He is a candidate for the state senate, and is a republican. lie has
been assailed as a tool of "the interests" He runs a big cattle
ranch back in the Otero county hills. lie rups it well. lie will do
what he thinks is best for his county and state, and one smiles to think
what would probably happen should Hanna, Scligman or their press
agents undertake TO say TO Oliver Lea personally what they have been
saying about him from the platform and in advertisements.
