VARDAMAN WILL NOT
LEAVE CAPITAL.
Though his
opponents have already opened their campaign, one of teem leaving his post
at Washington and coming to Mississippi to address the voters on several
occasions, ant his political enemies have hurled all kind of calumny at
him Senator Vardaman has remained at his post of duty in Washington and
will remain there so long as Congress eemains in session. In response to
an inquiry as to when he expected to make a speech in Mississippi Senator
Vardaman said "I do not know when I will go home. Certainly not until
Congress adjourns"

Congressman Pat
Harrison is carrying the rue message of Americanism, of democracy and
Patriotism, to the people wherever he speaks in the state. If the
democrats of Mississippi are the kind of Democrats we believe them to be,
they will support the Americanism of this able young stateman --Greenville
Democrat.
If Senator Vardaman were Pat
Harrison's age and had voted to send your boy, husband and brothers across the
ocean to fight in a foreign land he would not be speech making in
Mississippi but he would be with the boys in France. That is the difference
between Vardaman's Americanism and Pat Harrison's Americanism. Harrison is only
38 and a man of fine physical physique. The army has called and is
calling for able bodied men between the ages of 18 and 45 [but] "Pat" prefers
to stay and home and tell the other fellow to go. With Vardaman it was
always "Come on boys" and never "Go on boys." As it is while Harrison is
down speaking over the state away from his post of duty at Washington,
Senator Vardaman has remained close at official desk and never deserted it
for a moment to fu[r]ther his personal or political interest.Choose you the kind of
Americanism you prefer.
