Judge n. L. Arnold’s Position.
Friends and Fellow Citizens of In
dependence County:—In making this,
my announcement as a candidate to
serve you in the Lower House of the
next General Assembly, I deem it of
the first importance that you should
know my position on the question as
to whom 1 favor for the next gover
nor of this great common wealth. To
any casual observer tins is the all-ab
sorbing question and presents the
most vital issue submitted to the peo
ple of t he State of Arkansas since the
dark days of reconstruction. It pres
ents the issue of Democratic principle
and tradition against the sacrifice of
the same—of progression for your
state, against retrogression—of moral
ity against immorality- of good citi
zenship against violators of the law;
on issues of the people against gamb
lers, trusts and combines, and issues
of encouraging the vicious negro to
commit outrages upon white girls
against the protection of the girls; an
issue of whether you shall have for
your governor a statesman, or a dem -
agogue.
Judge Wood stands for the forme*
of all of these issues, and Governor
Davis stands for the latter. I am
therefore, by every impulse of my na
ture, against Gov. Davis. Should I
be one of your choice I shall favor all
laws for the best interests of your
country at large, and shall oppose all
vicious and unwholesome legislation.
Pledging you an honest and faithful
discharge of duty, 1 am,
Your humble servant,
M. L. Arhold.
