Judge Lewis J. Martin was in especially
fine form, and R. T. johnson oanvassed

The Democracy of Sandyston seems er-

for instance to run Republican against
a Democrat for a delegate to a Democratic
convention, and elect him. To select an
unpopular candidate for Assembly from a
Republican town. To call their Democra-

study the election returns from Sandyston
