There was never a time when the'rhf*’fdr public office has provoked us to a wfder sweep of legis lative extravagance than is ' evident in ..the mulUpLjcatiqar- of .- jobs by .the two last legislatures. „ • • • RAILROAD POLICY. “My policy regarding the railroads, if elected governor, would be based on ideas of the state’s right to regulate these corporations within the limits of mutual justice and fairness. There should be no conflict between the com monwealth and these great servitors of her material interests." In ending his statement Captain Kolb referred to the two campaigns now his tory in which he took a leading part. He said, “there are thousands of Ala bama Democrats who would support my candidacy In this campaign who were bitterly arrayed against me in times past. They will do it from conviction that it is right to redress wrongs, though those wrong* iie away baek in a stormy and titrtAd' past. • • • If it pleases the people of Alabama to hon or ms by their esCH to this lofty sta tion, I pledge them a record of service as governor that will conform to the highest ideal of a safe, economical and business administration, recognizing as I do that it lsV>n "such an administra tion that the state must hopefully and courageously depend for salvaton from the conditions that, row beset it.” Captain Kolb Was a candidate for governor abotit ttventy years ago but was defeated by Thomas G.
