e@s~ The real issue in the approaching
judicial election, is party issue. The
nominations are party nominations. The
candidates are party candidates. Judge
Mills is a republican and has been ever
since the organization of the party. Philo
A. Orion is democrat, and that includes
everything the democratic party has done
since 1861. To vote for Mr.. Orton is to
endorse all the previous actions of that
party, and acknowledge that he was right
in acting with the democratic party in its
efforts to overthrow the government, and
that you were wrong in opposing them.
