For weeks Christ Schuebel has been attacking me most shamefully. Some person or persons must be sup plying him with Urge sums of money snd his vocation surely does not keep him very busy since be finds so much time to roam over the whole county telling other! how very, very good he himself la, and how despicable his opponents are. This I could not do. I have neither time nor money nor "brass" enongh to attack and slander those who have always been friendly and kind to me. Neither can I und erstand how a person can afford to spend hundreds of dollars for the small recompensatlon he can honest ly get if elected to the legislature. Mr. schuebel tries to make his audience believe that the Interests' or certain parties have "bought' me. Be not deceived! Not I but he has been bought, if signs fail not and be cause he is used to being bought and being sold, as everybody knows, he made an effort to buy me In my own house. This, happened. March.

If I am not elected I shall harbor no bitter thoughts against anyone In my heart I never was a politician, desire to be none, and never shall be one. If elected, I shall seek to promote the general welfare, as I have promised tn a business way and without aspect of person. The legal voter must decide wheth er they want honorable, experienced and successful men .chosen from their ranks, as their representatives, or whether they want politicians and demagogues who seek only their own honor and welfare, who trample on the rights and honor of their fellow men ,and who are the cause that our political life la as corrupt as It is. I declare and piove by my dally life that all attacks, which Mr. Schue bel la making on me, are malevolent lies, manufactured by himself and sown broadcast contrary to his own better knowledge. Hi! whole life long Gust Schnoerr was, and is, a laboring man. Every laboring man must know that Gust Schnoerr will always plead tbe cause and fight valiantly for the just rights and Interests of the 'laborer.
