hard fact sent on from national head
quarters.
And so Horace Greeley Knowles has |
been made chairman of the First Dis /
trict Committee. / think he'll need 1
Bach, too, in a few days. Just tell him 1
that l said so. If Horace wants to |
make himself popular with the ward |
workers he'll have to put on a S6 |
hand-me-down suit and mingle more
freely with them. IL will never do for |
him to stand up on his Bordeaux ped
estal and wait for the boys to climb |
up to him. They're not built that
way
Your reports from Whitechapel.
Hedgeville BrOwntown, lrishtown,
Whopping, Todd Row. Hog Eye and
other Republican strongholds are en-
couraging. l now believe that the
country is saved.
have received q note from Charley
( Ewing. in which he states that some
fellow named Hill had banished him
( from the Morning News office because
he had declared his intention of vot-
ing the Addicks ticket. / don't think
that is exactly the way to make regu-
lar Republican voters out of Addicks
men, See Washington Hastings, state
the circumstance to him, and see If
you cannot prevail upon him to re-
establish diplomatic relations between
! Hill and Ewing. The estrangement
/ grieves me. / suppose the Browns and
( Scheus are back of the trouble, for
( they never did like him. Charley's all
( right on certain days, or at least he
was when l used TO know him.
| Don't you think that you are better
/ off without Spring and Virtue and
Z Coyle? / wouldn't waste much time
I in trying to get them back. The game
( isn't worth the candle. They are
source of weakness rather than
/ strength.
/ If l were you I wouldn't participate
( in the Addicks primaries on Satur-
( day. In the first place. / don't think
/ it would be just right; and in the sec
I ond place, don't suppose that the Ad
. dicks people would let you.
l notice what you say about Phil
l Garrett riding your wheel Anybody
/ who captures an Addicks meeting out
( in Mill Creek hundred is entitled to
! recognition from the National Com
I mittee / send him by express a bicycle
for his own use 1t Is a right nice
( wheel painted red with yellow stripes
on the frame. My only request is that
he join the Mckinley Wheelmen.
| don't think that Mr. Wiley, wn om
you describe as the bogus state chair
man, will give you much trouble
refused absolutely TO recognize him
The outside of his head reminds me Of
some one 1 have seen, but if his head
is full of gray matter it wasn't run
! ming out of his ears when he was at
headquarters.
I 81, L. T.
from Bowers Beach make any mater
ial change In the regular Republican
3 prospects? I presume not, from what
; you said in your last letter
I'm glad to hear that Pat Neary is
out of politics. He's like the fish that's
5 out of water-hell soon die.
Don't work the anti-Tunnell racket
: too hard, or the Irish might resent
{ your interference. IL won't do for
Higgins or Hohecker to depend upon
the Irish vote. for they have no par
ticular love for the sons OF Erin. Irish
and niggers can't stand on the same
platform.
