EDITOR CIVENS ATTACK N CONGRES MAN STANLEY
The opponents of Congresjnui Sanley are trying to defeat him fur
reelection on the ground that rile Tobacco Amendment which he so
skillfully passed doesrPt ntnouht to anvthingI
anvthingI argument that the Tobacco
Tobacr
Amendment doesnt amount to anything
dSuppose we grant that it gill never confer alftgle solitary cent of
benefit on the tobacco growers and that the Amendment is yearly silly
and useless < s >
If this were all true would it be anything agatris fMr Stanley
00Isnt this the point v H
THAT THE TOBACCO GROWERS ASKED FOR THE TOBACCO
TAX AMENDMENr AND STANLEY GOT IT
1
That tobacco growers all over Kentucky said that they wanted t IeI
Tobacco Amendment i
That the Dark Tobacco Protective Asaociationsaid they wanted the
Amendment That Joel Fort took witnesses to Washington and paid their expenses i
ISI
to make sure that they got the tobacco amendment j
That Sec Banks T T Barnett and other authorities of our own
tobacco Association said the amendment was a good W thing and thee yIi
wanted it t
eThat the tobacco trust and the enemies of the farmer fought it for j I
1
yearst
oThat Editor Givens said it was a good thing and upheld Stanleys
hands in fighting for it until he became CANDIDATE Givens
And even though they were all mistaken in the face a r this enormous
mous demand for the amendment what else was there for the Congress I
man to do but to try and get it
AND HE DID GET IT
And the fact that he worked it against an overwhelming majority
is all the more to his credit
And the fact that he skillfully forced the amendment into the Payne
Aldrich Tariff Bill which was bound to pass is but another evidence ofI
ability
He secured the Tobacco Amendment because his district wanted it
and whether it is of any value at all or whether it will be of immense
benefitdoes it make any difference
Any more than it makes any difference whether the Henderson dam i
will be of any benefit
The peoplewho are supremetell the Congressman tghat they
want and so far he has shown his ability to get what they ask forHen c
