The south Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1879-1883, 1882-01-31

The usually level-headed editor OF
the Louisville Democrat takes issue
with us upon, the question of estate
eectionalism," if We may use such a
term. lie thinks delegate In state
convention should begin voting for
the candidate nearest 10 him and con-
tinuc doing so till nomination is
reached. We have far different
ideas on the subject. Delegates
should meet IN state conventions as
Kentuckians and not come together
to vote merely tor the interests OF
this section or that. Tho gentleman
who introduced the chairman of the
late convention, hit the nail on the
head when he introduced him as
"Judge VIM. Lindsay, of Kentucky"
Tho two ends of the state have long
felt the injustice Of this selfish and
mario w.minded spirit. The people
ofthe eastern aud western portions
of the state will be compelled to
Eight the deyil with fire" and they
will make this all Issue next year to
gain their rights aud teach The "sec.
tionalists"a lesson. Somebody will
hcar something drop next year, and
the bluegrass oiRce-lolders will find
that the tail is going to wag the dog
for awhile.
