honors conferred on him by the party
IN years past, and ended by saying
he had not enough votes To pull him
through in this Convention, and that
o. Ii. Grey withdrew o. II. Crews
name from the contest. The cheers
that followed this humorous and sar-
castle philippe resounded through
the surrounding hills and will be
borne ON the wings of time as long
rs men seek office aud the choice of
the people are traded off in caucuses
nights before conventions.
Frank X. Murphy, being now in
undlsputed possession of the nomina-
ton, came forward and said: u
thank you for the nomination; / will
button-hole every voter in the county,
kiss ali the babies, do my duty for
the next two years, and when l leave
the office IL will be with Democratic
majority in the county Jail and all
the Republicans outside
An assertion SO uncaled for and
altogether out of place, elected not a
murmur of approval for the speaker.
His friends evidently felt sorry for
him, and the Democrats present won
dered how young man who has not
been six months in this county could
SO work himself up as to cast slur
of this nature on one-half of the PEG
pie who for long years have borne
the county's burden, helped to steer
her through the storms of adversely
and plotted her to safe haven. Mr..
Murphys school OF politics is Of the
past. People nowadays will not
sanction calling their neighbors aud
friends thieves or criminals because
they may differ in political faith.
We admlt,we regret To he cal led upon
to thus adversely criticize Mr. Muir
phys debut on White Pines political
stage. but we too have for long years
been resident of this county. We
have served her juries, paid her taxes,
spoken good word Tor her IN time
aud out OF time, and NE know of hun
dreds of Democrats who have done
likewise, and for new -comer-a nov
ice in our community, whose first act
Is to seek public office to thus
insult Us Is too much. We never
quarrel with our Republican friends;
wc be,ieve they are honest; SO are we.
