If either Judge Morse or his friends can
answer these questions affirmatively, then
will they be justified in asking favors of G..
A. r. veterans i'm return. But If they can
not so respond, then we submit that Judge
Morse has not shadow of claim upon the
vote or the sympathy of any Grand Army
veteran in Michigan who stands outside of
the democratic party.
Nay, more: If Ben. Morse refused to
vote, and still refuses to vote, for a veteran
comrade outside of the democratic party,
then the republican or the independent
veteran who casts his ballot for Ben. Morse
for governor next November, by that act
wrongs every other comrade in Michigan
who stands outside of the democratic
organization.
In this connection the following from the
Ionia Daily Sentinel of August % is not a
bad exposition of Judge Morse's political
love for his old comrades in arms. The
Sentinel says:
Soon after the political accident that
occurred in this state in November, 1890,
Supreme Justice A. b. Morse, now the
democratic candidate for governor, met an
old townsman and army comrade on the
streets OF Lansing. The cOmrade was one
of the many republicans who had assisted i'm
giving ComIade Morse the high judicial
position he now holds. He had for some
time been an efficient assistant in the Office
of the commissioner of labor. After word
of friendly greeting Judge Morse remarked:
II suppose you've got to get out pretty
soOn." The judges fellow townsman and
old comrade replied affirmatively as cheer
fully as the circumstances would permit.
Judge Morse remarked: IL couldn't vote
to keep you in. There's too much at stake"
The success of the democratic party was
greater thing with Judge Morse than the
claims of comradeship. There was too
much at stake"
So it is now. A vote for Morse for gov
ernor is vote to perpetuate in Michigan
the disgraceful misrule which has scandal
lied the state for the past two years.
No republican veteran can afford to vote
for Morse. His own words to his old COM
rade should be the reply of every republic
can ex-solder when asked to vote for him.
81 COULDN'T VOTE TO KEEP YOU
IN. THERE is TOO MUCH AT
STAKE"
