At O meeting of the Belton Club Friday
evening, August 90, the following preamble
and resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, the voters of this community
wish to know the sentiments of those who
are now, or may hereafter become, candi-
dates for the Legislature; and whereas the
masses desire the State and County govern
nlents administered upon astrictly econom-
/ ical plan, they having passed through
long period of high and oppressive taxation,
and having by a hard struggle expelled from
power a set of scoundrels who had been
exlorting from them their earning and
having determined that such state of az
fairs shall not be brought about again by
any party or set of men, be it
Resolved, That the people of this commu-
| nifty request that each and every candidate
for the House of Representatives express
his sentiments in card through the Coun-
ty papers so that every man may know
whom to vote for at the primary election,
aud whom to reject.
9 That to claim to be Democrat is not
of itself sufficient, but we wish to know
whether o: not they favor high taxes or low
taxes, a, whether they favor the support
and building of railroads and other such
enterprises by tax upon the people.
On motion, it was agreed that this Club
make no nominations until the primary
election.
The Club was then addressed in an able
and instructive speech by Col. Z. Al. Rucker.
