!, EDITOR APPEAL:-I would like t
ask if you and your co-agitators G
the kick-over party are not Statistic
with the havoc you have wrough
} among the legitimate parties in thi
State without sowing the seed of dis
cord, and dissension in our owl
peaceful community. If the rest 0
the State wishes to play prodigal son
and 60 on swine herding expedition
all right, let them go i, and take thu
consequences. But Ormsby county
voters propose to play the more
profitable role of the dutiful son who
stayed by the old man and shared his
prosperity.
| This agitation as applied to oul
county affairs is all wrong q don't
suppose you care for that however,
more than that, it is idiotic The af-
fairs of the county are in the hands
of men who have earned their posi-
lions by years of loyal devotion to
the party. They are gentlemen in
every sense of the word The people
trust them fully, and what is better
still they trust each other and this
trust is not to be shaken by any third
party mud Singing A grand Jdry
composed Of our best citizens have
fully vindlcated their acts. If they
sometimes nsed their positions to ia
vor their friends, what was the harm?
Political ethics don't require man
to favor his enemies.
Before this third party ghost began
to stalk, harmony was the rule, Cons
ventions were not kicking matches,
and the bolter was unknown. Prim-
aries were held and the results ac~
cepted not only as the verdict Of the
party but as the verdict of the peo-
pie sure to be ratified on election day.
Now it is all changed. As friend of
mine said the other day, 1--WE must |
be very careful what we say or we
will be branded as gold-bugs. 1t |
makesmy blood boil sometimes. Why |
| was called gold bng by man
who don't pay So 90 taxes, Just be-
cause | preferred Harrison or Cleve-
land to Weaver.
Ormsby county wants no change,
all it wants is to be let alone.
True BLUE.
The delightful picture of harmony
Drawn by our correspondent calls to
mind tie old Edenic days.
If the taxpayers will only let the
bosses alonea and allow the
obbery of the people and the loot
ng of the County Treasury 60 on
all will be we'll
If Coffin, Lee and Thaxter can j;
meet in a back room and fix up tbs
primary ticket to cram down the
hroats of the voters, there will be
ar.nony in Ormsby.
If Martin and Bray can audit !
iuldoon's bills when he charges $500
Or a weeks work of one team, all :
ill be we'll.
If Bray can let county contracts to E
imself, and Martin let some more
} his foreman, and a Grand Jury
IN be found which will excuse the
ribune and County Clerk for not G
1vertising the bills as the law di- 5
cts, Ormsby would be a regular v
chic ground for boodlers.
If George Thaxter can violate the d
30 clock law, and after being "
ought into Court for breaking a "
W of his own making, and an &C $;
mmodating District Attorney will fe
low the case to go by default, what 81
ore can any lover of party harmony
k?
If men charged with felonies are
lowed to go out of the county and in
yond the reach of justice because d;
e ring is willing to side with them a
is indeed happy state of affairs tn
If taxes can be so guaged that re
e rich Republicans get off for half su
ey are worth and the balance of
e herd pay double, all the big fish NJ
Il swim in a puddle of content.
If the Justice Court can be run in
2 interest of the ring and a Dis =
ct Attorney can be elected who ye
Il shield gilt edged criminals and :
ly jam poor devils who haven't a u
1t, what more can lovers of party -
rmOnv ask Sl'
