ARALs7ICE STILL IN A MIDDLE.
Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1870-03-17

On Tuesday evening, the 9Th inst, rail

Their, were speeches delivered by J. W..

Resolred, That we heartily support the build

We will give our whole support to the building
Of said railroad at the earliest practicable pc
Rod.
A committee Of four was appointed to So
lcit subscriptions for the enterprise.
We heartily rejoice to see the enterprise

Caucasses, in General.

II any words OF ours would have
any effect, we would read, Tor write.l
a lecture to somebody on Caucus call
ing This thing Of calling Caucuses
in the afternoon before the evening in
which they are held is too much like
death bed repentance TO suit us. #
Caucuses are of any use whatever, on
which question, however, good men
differ, they should be called in su!li-
cicnt season to render notification to
all parties interested, at least presuma-
bic. A notification by word of mouth
to few persons even 4 day or two in
advance is not sufficient, nor is post
ing written notices ~ few places.
Those who suppose that people gen
orally will stop on the street, in their
hurry, to read a written notice, is
twenty five years behind his age, and
ought to be buried. The meagre at
tendance at the Ciay Caucus week be-
fore last is a particular case in point,
and the usually thin attendance at our
City and Township Caucuses is a gen.
eral case in point.
When every body knows, or, tthey
haven't heretofore known, are hereby
notified. that we gladly publish all
notices OF such public meetings, free,
gratis and for nothing, there can be no
excuse for such delays of calls rs have
been prevalent heretofore.
This failure to issue calls for eau.
cuses until such late hour, and the
consequent meagre attendance at the
Caucuses, have heretofore, in this
town, been the direct causes of tho de-
feat Of the regular nominees Of such
Caucuses, when voting day came.
People who have no opportunity to
participate in Caucus are not gong
to be bound by any nominations of
that Caucus, and the results of our city
elections during the last two years, at
least, show that they are not so bound.
We respectfully present these
thoughts to the consideration Of
whom it may concern"
