Saginaw eLabor Unionist: Since
Tim Tarsney has decided to accept
denomination for congress in this
district the question arises whether
he will receive the support Of w, R.
Burt. In speech in Saginaw City,
a short time since, Mr.. Burt said:
"No third term, from president to
coroner. Wonder If Mr.. Burt will
practice what he breaches and with
draw his support from Tim?
The Democrats of St. Clair county
have received bad black eye, their
leading organ for IS years, the Port
Huron Daily Commercial, having
hoisted the names of Harrison and
Morton at its masthead.
Detroit News: Here's the secret of
it. The Democrats Of the eighth
didn't really want to renominate
Tim Tarsney, but were compelled to
by the Greenback convention which
was in session somewhere in St. Louis
yesterday. The Greenbackers said
if the Democrats wanted their sup
port they must put up TaTsney, and
finally the Democrats reluctantly
consented. Still the Greenbackers
are left open TO the suspicion Of being
like the mother who, after repeatedly
calling her stalwart little son and re
Ceiving no attention from him,
stamped her foot and said with decs-
ion: Tommy, you keep right on
playing in that mud; will be
obeyed "
Mr.. w. r. Burt made T. E. Tars-
ney a Congressman. He had no
particular love for Tarsney but he
did hate Horr. Today there is
chasm so wide between Mr.. Burt and
his protege that the entire Demo-
cratic party couldn't fill it. Mr..
Burt appealed to the people of the
Eighth district to elect Mr.. Tarsney
on these two points: I. That no
man should be elected to Congress
or any other Office from Constable
to President for a third term.
That the people could rest assured
that Mr.. Tarsney would work and
vste for the protection of home in
dustries. Mr.. Tarsney has violated
both pledges given by Mr.. Burt to
the people in his behalf. He has
accepted nomination for "a third
term and voted for free trade for his
own district and for high protection
for the Democratic South. Mr.. Burt
has said that the Malls bill Mr.. Tars-
ney voted for discriminates against
interests and that he is |
not the kind of Democrat who
approves of such measure. Now,
how can these Democratic opposites |
be reconciled2 Will the Courier
throw some light on this subject, and
also tell its readers its opinion Of the
Mills bill today. AS a Democratic
'rgan it ought to know where it
stands. Come now, what do you
hink Ct Mr.. Tarsney's vote for this
ectional measure? You dare not
lefend or approve of it-Saginaw
