“The contestants have traversed the length and breadth of the state and have told us what they intend to do and can do. It is now our duty to make our choices and then come out boldly to exercise our franchise.
“I want to call on you to do what is right. Don’t give yourself to violence, don’t allow your children to be used for violent activities.
