WAITER
The Capital this morning has a groat
deal to say about Coylo and the ilood
fund. Th ore are records at ltllltuga-
ley's bank showing that Coylo wa
among tho first to contribute to this
fund. Two weeks after this fund of
52300 waB made up a committee of al-
leged subscribers took charge of It.
The fund was looted by Pagan))
Orcer and Kolley. It was looted the
same as was tho Chandler relief fund
when Kelly and 'Uoodrtch went to
Chandler with $100 of the fund hid
themselves In a hotel for a day ami
returned homo saying Chandlor people
needed no relief. No one has ever
heard what became of this WOO. If
tho Capital Is anxious to dig up Hood
Buffering roports why doos it not go
deeper and not simply stop at Coy In?
Tho reason is plain. Thoporsons who
stolo the '.handler and west witthrle
rollof fuuds do not wish unplSasant
memories revived Thcro Is no rocord
extant where this relief monoy went.
Uuthrio cltizons raised nearly $4000
for these two funds. Chandler never
received a red cont over SHOO from
this committee and West Uuthrio got
but S432.ft0. Now who got tho re-
maining ?B 277. 50? Not Coylo beoause
ho was not ou the committee The
money was stolen novortholess and
by the vory men who aro now eharg-
Ing Coylo with failure- U provide dur-
ing timos of distress.
Lot Judgo Mock tell what he did
with tho vouchers of two old soldiers.
How ho hold up those vouohora and
made tho pensioner)) pay htm 30 per
cent of their incomo for one year. Yet
in spite of all thin Mock asks the old
soldier support. Defeat Mock and vote
for uismith.
Coylo has a cotton seed oil mill plant
employing 40 men. Is not Coylo a
public boncfactor?
Says Reed When Referring (o
His Meeting With the
President
In tho meantime don't forget that
the Bowcrage proposition is a steal.
Proof of this fact is found in the can
didacy of 0. W. llruco for the council.
Hero Is tho rocord of J. W. Oupors
Republican candlduto for clerk : Ho
