Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1893-03-29
MARTINS FERRY.

The Times in yesterdays issue has
another article in reference TO the can
didateS for Trustee, in answer TO what
we said in the REGISTER yesterday as TO
why some of the Republican voters
would not support the nominees. The
able editor of the Times says that we
are frank enough TO admit that it Is
reasonable and renders man weak be-
fore the people, for Republican TO vote
for a Democratic candidate. We do
not admit anything OF the kind, but on
the contrary, we do say that it shows
good common sense and judgment
for a man, be he Republican
or Democrat, to vote for the
best man, no matter which ticket he Is
on. Let politics be put TO one SIDE In
these local elections and vote for the
man that will work to your interest
when he is elected TO a public office.
Now when the Times man advises others
TO draw the line and says there he's been
too much boiling in Pease township,
perhaps he had in his mind that little
Poorman racket of his last fall and
what bad judgment he used in writing
up the Coloneps history. II there Is
such thing as treason in politics that
was a nice little bit Of it on his part.
Some people would call it meanness.
