faction. H. told them bluntly of the
issues, his Unborn faith in the majesty

thu echo by the large audience which
Indicated q wish for more.
But Mossman is a seasoned and
experienced orator and DICTATOR. He
has terminal facilities on the stump,
and is always glad to yield to others.

20 minute speech at Crounse Hall
than the V rag candidate would be
abe to deliver in two hours.

day night when the place was packed
with men and women, under the aus

manner, winning repeated applause &
the large crowd listened eagerly and
asked for more, but Mossman had
poured forth his e%loquence for twenty
minutes he gave way to the Governor,
and the general comment of those who
heard and cheered his speech indicat'd
beyond question that Mossman was
the favorite for county attorney by
a large vote. Were the primaries
held tomorrow, it is believed by wise
ones that Mosman would win by a
tremendous majority.
Mr. Mossman is never abusive. He
takes the position that every other
fellow has a right to aspire to public
office if he wants to, and that this
is still a free country. He simply
asserts that the office of county Atty.
is an important post, and he promises
to give tie best that is in him to
to administer its affairs if he is chos

will be nominated by a big vote
