ANDERSON TEMPERANCE PEOPLE FOR HELM FOR CONGRESS. Two Letters Ceme Out Whkh Shew Hew Sullivan's Effect te Ride Temperance Voters Inte Centres Is Faillnf . Just bow flat the efforts of Judge Sullivan nnd his friends to "ride" him to victory in the congressional race on the temperance issue, are falling, is again shown in two let ters which have fallen into the hands? o fthe I. J. The writer of the first letter, John W. Flowers, is said to be one of Sullivan's leaders m Adair county. Tho letters are perfectly self explanatory and spenk well for themselves. They are ns follows: Flowers' Letter. Columbia, Ky., July 10, 1912. Pastor Presbyterian church, Ijawrcnccburg, Ky. ' "" Dear Sir: I have been informed that the whisky people in Anderson , county are supporting Helm for Congress and urc opposed to Sullivan on ac count of his favoring the passage the pnssage of the cejinty unit law. Is my information correct t I have nls.i been informed that Mr. Booth, Superintendent of the Kentucky Dis tilleries nnd Warehouse Co., is Man aging Mr. Helm's" campaign and I want to know if this is correct. If the liquor people are support ing Helm, it looks like it is time for the temperance people to be getting busy. I inclose stamped envelope for your reply. Yours truly, (Signed) John W. Flowers. - The Reply "- ' !? LawfeliCeburg, Ky., July 20, '12 .Mr. John W. Flower, -' " A Columbia, Ky. "'4.' TVr'ir Dear Sir: -j Tour letter addressed to the pastor of the Presbyterian church has been handed to me for answer. We nre without n pastor now, but since I urn uu Elder of the church, I trust that I may be able to correct tho false information thnt you have received. In Anderson county the people are nearly equally divided on the temper ance question that is, luVnit half are wet and half are dry. ' Both sides, with singular unani mity, nre supporting Mr. Helm. I es timate that out of a democratic vote oi about fifteen hundred, Mr. Sulli van would receive not exceeding one hundred or one hundred and fifty votes in thfs county, it the vote were (ukon today. Helm's supporters nre drawn from Loth sides nnd the li quor question is cutting on figure in the contest. ., Sullivan's leader iu the county U Hon. William Dowiiug, Senator from this distiict, and himself a distiller, the son of a distiller, and one of the constant opponents of the countv unit bill. Mr. Booih, superintendent of one of the plunts of the Kentucky Dis tilllerieji & Warehouse Co., and a irresbyteriiin by the way, will vote for Mr. Helm, I am told, but he is not managing Helm's campaign, and is supporting him rather lukewarmly. In fact everybody here is for Helm with regnrd to race, color or previous condition of servitude. The question you raise has occurred to no one here. Helm has made an excellent impulsion on our people personally, and officially has been of real use. Among other things, he has caused -uu appropriation to be made for a, public building a tiling tlmt we had sought in vain for yeurs. Ho not uudeistaiid me to be one of Helm's rank partisans. I am merely writing you the truth us know it. Our teuiieriiiice people , e thoroughly sutisfied with Mr. Helm. It appears tt us that if be is ! b beaten it should be on somo other mound than uuy tiling we have heard or know in this couiiection. He uppeais right on the bill pending in f , i. er Cong, ess ,,, he liquor traffic. (Signed) J. Yf. MAHAtf. r'Wij
