The great hue and cry among business men and fanners of the district has been, we want a man of our class to represent us in Congnss. Now, gentlemen, we are the power; we compose ninety per cent, of the votinsr strength of the district; we can nominate and elect one of our men to Con gress. Robert L. Poughton is a suc cessful farmer and business man. and one who can set up a defence lor us under any and a 1 ci-cutn- stai.ces where there is a political fight to be made; a man we aie not ashamed of when he meets his opponent in a political dis cussion. When we ro out toheni the issues discussed we don't have to go baek to Petsy am the children with heads hun down, furred tongues and a bit ter taste in our mouths, wanting blue mass and resting powders because our man got licked. Pol Doughton dues not get licked he does I he licking. Twenty years ago he was a poor school teach er, reai lung in the winter and working hard on the farm dunnsr the summer months. No man ever drove an iron wedge that could split more rails, or picked up a mattock that could do more grubbing. lie is a man of untiring energy There is no man living within the borders of this grand old State of ours that is more ready to help those in distress ant need. He represented the Thirty- fifth Senatorial district in oui lat legislature The district was Republican by a large majority but he carried it Democratic by mx hundred majority. While in the legislature he was very busv looking after the interest of the people throughout the State and while doing all of this he di not forget those in distress did not only think of the - his county and his distiict, but he looked up and down the broad avenues of this great State am saw the great nr.mber of briirht boys and girls perishing under the much dreaded disease, dvp- inena. Me saw the o-ienr lmn helpless mothers wrepinir over their dying loved ones, whose learts were just as true as those who had money. His heart over flowed with sympathy for the dy ing children and weeping moth ers, and he asked for an appro priation with which to buy Dyp. tlieria Atitoxine (or those help-j less ones, which lie e-ot. and the wonderful remedy is now in reach of all throughout the State who are not able to buy it. I appeal to to the farmers and business men of the district. Let us work together for our good. for we are in the majority; the power is in our own hands; the victory is ours if we will o n 1 y stand together. Thelawyercomes to you and asks you to support a man of this class, but he will never, no, never, say to you bus iness men or farmers, we must nominat one of your men. What is his excuse? It is this.
