SENATOR -ODD|E
MAKES GOOD TALK
Vivid Comparison Drawn Between
Good and Bad Government by
the Senator and kearney
Dynamitss Scrugham

The last rally Of the campaign was
held at the American theatre Thurs
day night, staged by the Republi-
cans, with Senator Tasker Oddie
and William Kearney, former state
engineer, delivering speeches to
highly appreciative and interested
audience which, while it was not
quite SO great in numbers-due to
the inclemency of the weather-as
some of the crowds that have
hitherto turned out to hear CAM
paign oratory, was more markedly
in sympathy with the speakers,
made apparent by the frequent ap-
plause lent in approval of the words
uttered.
Senator Oddie's talk was abso-
lutely free of everything savoring
of vituperative abuse of opposing
candidates and he devoted his time,
following his introduction to the
audience-by Attorney L. G. Camp
bell, who served as chairman of the
meeting-to a plain, matter-of-fact,
analytical comparison of conditions
that existed under the administra-
tion of national affairs by the Will
son men, and that which now pre-
walls, with President Harding at
the helm, making it clear that with
the Democrats in control the ranks
of the unemployed were filled with
multiplied thousands, before the
war, and Immediately following its
close more than five million Ameri-
can citizens were again thrown out
OF employment, and in that con-
dition they continued for two years
following until the people voted the
Democrats out of power and placed
able business men in their places,
who quickly brought order out of
industrial and financial chaos and
now. at this time, instead of there
being large number of men out of
work, every man who wants to work
has a job and the supply of un-
skilled labor is inadequate to the
demand.
Senator Oddie, it happens, is
personally and intimately acquainted
with the Republican candidate for
governor, Hon. John II. Miller, and
1t was particular pleasure to him
to disabuse the minds of his audi
tors of any misgivings any of them
might have entertained relative to
the unimpeachable integrity of Mr..
Miller. Senator Oddie not only
knows Mr.. Miller. but he has had
intimate business relations with him
and he stated, without quibble or
question, that Mr.. Miller is one of
the best, ablest and cleanest busi-
ness men in the state. Really, Mr..
Miller requires no defense to be
made for him by anybody who has
ever seen and heard him talk, but
rs some irresponsibles have given
utterances to untruths based upon
nothing more tangible than the
pipe-dreams of hop-heads, it was a
pleasure to hear Senator Oddie
give to them the lie in unmis-
taxable language.
Senator Oddie emphasized the
value of the protective tariff meas
ure, just adopted, and urged that
men be elected to Office who are in
sympathy with the administration
and its policies, pointing out the
absurdity involved in voting for the
return Of a man who offers not a
constructive idea, but makes it plain
that he is an obstructionist, who de-
sires no greater pleasure than that
Cf being an animated thorn in the
side Of the administration" The
thought carried home to the minds
of those who heard Senator Oddie
was that Senator Key Pittman,
Democrat, now asking for re-elec-
tion, is a constitutional "knocker,"
who would keenly relish oppor-
tunity to WELD hammer for six
year longer. in the senate of the
United States.
At the close Of his address Sena-
tor Oddie was roundly applauded
and the general comment was that
he had made 'dignified presenta-
tion of incontrovertible facts that
could not be dissipated by the
preachments of the Anticipated, nor
easily forgotten by those who de-
sire to vote in a way that will
rebound to the good Of the coun-
try of which they are loyal, self
respecting citizens.
Ere he closed his talk Senator
Oddie stressed the importance Of
