Now I A'ant to say right at
this juncture, that if elected, I
will do my duty as far as in me
lies without regard tc friend or
foe. And at the end of four
years of service these people
I know will have to say, that
this county is in better condi-
tion than it was when I oome
in. and that 1 have mude you a
good servant.
I have done different kinds of
business for the past 20 years,
ginning, merchandise, buying
and selling cotton, banking, and
farming. Was sent to the Leg-
islature to loby in 1997, and got
what I went after, was sent by
the citizens of Stanton, Texas,
and have the proof now. But
never did belong to that gang
spoken of by the great Law*
giver, Jesus Christ, in Mevela-
tlon 22-15, Go read it.
I shall not write an.v fieticous
letters, nor f< rtflush anybody,
nor send any dirty lies across
the country to get your votes, 1
will not need them that bad,
this time.
Yours to the finish,
Tull B. Hardin.

from over the seaw. Sugar, for
instance, was shipped overseas
vntil a famine was produced
here at home, and prices went
up so high we had to use a step-
ladder to locate them.
Now, if cvtting off some of
jour export trade would make
! the necessities of life more num-
erous over hare, and would
thereby reduce prices to a sane
level again, wouldn't it be rath-
er a good thing for you, and the
rent of the homn people?
Of course, a few plutocratia
exporters might have to forego
some of their fat profits, but
what of it? They care nothing
