The citizens of Boswell had the opportunity
Saturday to hear the two candidates for the
state senate express their views and show why
they ought to go to the senate. Mr. Works spoke
first and took up most of his time telling about
the diamonds and good clothes he wears and the
social clubs he belongs to, and taken altogether
there was very little in Work's speech to show
any reason why he should be sent to the senate.
1 here are several reasons why Works should not
be elected to the State Senate, not necessary to
be mntioned here. Mr. Leggett made a very
strong and forceful speech and it is generally
conceded here that he made many friends. It
was easy to see that Mr. Leggett is far superior

the next State Senate, celebrated the 4th of July' s'
We do not like to discriminate between Dem-
ocratic candidates before the primary, but in
this case the Democratic voters should know the
facts. To elect a man like Works would be a cal-
amity. By experience, training and ability J,
M. Leggett is by far the best qualified man in
the race, and is a man who can and would com-
mand the confidence and respect of the State
Senate, and in turn reflect credit on the district.
He is a man of strong personality whose charac-
ter is above reproach and is a man who could se-
cure proper recognition for this district.—Bos-
