been to beget factionaI fights among Republicans.
Now. before going further le: me say That thh IL
be easily proved that the writer has done ~ nnc
a. any Republican In the district toward TINS
injury and the only faclolal fight know Of lie made
The club is perfectly harmonious there are no as
sensiOn, in the club whatever The dsSension i Win
the writer lie Is Only one man. while the CLUBS ron
shows 1876 members and because that 120 refuse 10
dance when lie plays the fiddle he becomes irritable
and pecvislI and says they are an injury ana calls
them fighters. Now you can easily see what cauSes
his angry passions to rise
Then, he goes on and says IL begged go ffom the
candidate for senator, and Ike sam from other can
ddscs last fall. without writing at any length on
this subject. lei me say that We will just ask Mr..
Rhodes candidate for senator, If that statement is
truthful one. and Will put the same question IN
all the county candidates. and see IL they Will bear the
writer in this assertion lie knew better when he
pcnned that statement. There bcsgaTs in that
Republican club. 1t is composed Of loyal and reputable
citizens and the character and reputation Of thos,
men Will bear Just as much sitting and scrutiny Us
that Of the writer.
He next makes a sort of half-hearted charge, that
there money paid 10 the club for which there was
accounting. There is 10 use going into The DC
tails of this charge but will say that II the Kicker"
will call J. l.. TAYLOR secretary of the club. and

he will find them perfectly willing to enightcn his

any rooms suitable for the club. Mt SIS. let lis know
where they and will copsider their renting IL
is certain that we cannot get our present rooms ut
any lees. The Democratic Club will take them OH our
hands day. at the price we pay Next he saws that
the 3" Wild West method is tinctured more "ith "ihu
than with dignity and brains" Let me say LOT inc

Vest show We ever had when ne ard another
man was IN camp. taking the part OF g." Chei Baa
Man. anu the other Chief lou-TckeMe-and-pli I'll
Tickle Yous and Faithfully he SAYS dignity and brains
were absent. And finally the writer says: we need
every possible vote in our contest with the sarps and
crooks who have captured the Democratic parry
In parting let inform this very, very good man
that il is just such meu himself that VIII DRIVE ne
publican voters out Of the party they VIII not sumo
this domneertng Of one man over the HalorN' no

Of every ten people this place. 1t is shame that
