Benjamin H. Hiner, Democratic Candidate for Congress, 2nd District; Mineral Co., W. Va.
Date:
ca. 1908
Description:
Caption on back of postcard reads: "My opponent says he taught school here before the War. I taught eight years in the public schools, since the War, and have, therefore, touched elbows with the teachers of today. I cannot boast of holding the school positions he does, for I never held but one office in my life. I have, however, written many deeds for school property without charge. One thing of which I do boast is that the little education that I ever received, aside from the professional part, was acquired in the public schools of my county. My own interest in the schools can best be ascertained by writing to any of the teachers in my county." Published by Union Label. (From postcard collection legacy system.)
