I wanted this oppor- tunity to express in public the esteem and respect which I have for the character and ability of the Honorable W. 8. "Hammond, our candidate for governor. “I have known Mr. Hammond as a neighbor-and as a friend for over thirty years. I have known him as a high school principal, as super- intendent, as county attorney, as a member of the mormal school board and as a member of Congress for my old district, and I say without. fear- of contradiction that no man ever held so many:and such varied-posi- tions in the public life of our state as have the services of Mr. Hammond. The reason is not far to seek. * He is an.able, upright man:and an un- tiring worker. ~ He is loyal to his constituents, true to his friends and fair to opponents. His position and standing in the House of Represen- tatives is as high as ever enjoyed by any man from our state. “Mt. Hammond if elected will make an ideal goverrior. ability, the experience and the poise for the position. “I wish to say further that while my views as.expressed on the sub ject of county-option, in the Gray campaign, have undergone no change, I have implicit confidence that whether Mr. Hammond shares these views or not, he will faithfully co- operate to make the: will of the legislature effective on this as on every subject for proper legislative action. “Mr. Hammond will never become party m any scheme that will thwart the will of the people. “With best wishes for suceess, I am, “Yours truly, “(Signed) He has the JOHN LIND.” —ITHE BRINKMAN THEATRE TONIGHT VAUDEVILLE De'Ressi- Duo Singing-and: Piano Oddity Powers & Joyce C«omedy'“'l’he oxd,,Smut" Picturses 101 Bison.
