that thousands of republicans are able to see
their mistakes and errors, and are eager to
become candle sticks that their benighted

We, too, are getting tired of hear
ing certain democratic organs of this
state abusing those of their political
brethren who chance to live at the capital
We are inclined to think that the ''ring'' we
hear so much talk about exists only in the
prolific Imagination of certain enviOus indi-
viduals who are never easy unless finding
fault with something or somebody IN the
home of their friends. We believe with the
Sentinel that those Journals claiming to be
democratic which endeavor to pull down
and destroy democrats because they live at a
certain place deserve the severest condem-
nation. A democrat who lives in Indianap
oils is as deserving of party recognition as
though he lived in New Albany or Evans.
