-----
THE CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGN.
The voters of Falls county should wait and
hear both Mr. Henry and Mr. Thomas, congressional aspirants in a full and fair
discussion of all the issues befor (sic) making up their minds to vote for
either. This is the way t(o) elect an honest and competent man. One
who stands with the masses as against the classes, and by the right, as against
the wrong. If the people act hastily they have no one to blame but
themselves. Any effort to take snap judgment on the people by forming
clubs in advance, is done to commit the people so they can't vote as they
please.
Jno. F.
Patterson,
Chairman of Cullum F. Thomas
campaign committee.
