are disguised with our ticket and many
of "a have come to the conclusion that
there should be more liberalltv in voting
for men to administer the affairs of our
county government. The days of bossisul
in LEGAL affairs have about gone and the
choice of men will have more weight than

convention, but when it comes to delis-
ering the offic, they will find that the
taxpayers have something to say. Re

only waiting judicious action by the dem
ocrats 10 teach the bosses that there j.
enough Independence left in us to bolt
from such dictaiorial and dimineering
action as they have taken"
