Marshfeld Times: One of the two
Republican conventions of this county
has been held and have elected a
proper set Of delegates to the state and
congressional conventions. Another
will be held in this city on the 29thinst.
We admit that it is bad politics to war
within party lines, but the time has
passed when it can be corrected at
home. There Will be two sets of dele
gates and no matter which is un-seated.
let the wrangIe end there. Let us
shake hands and look to the future good
and welfare Of the Republican party in
this county. After it is over lets have
a meeting of the leading Republicans.
Lets reason with one another and talk
over our differences and see if we can
not have harmony where confusion now
Ieigns. Let each one start out willing
to meet the other half way.
Brother White, We say amen to the
above if the Republicans of Marshfield
through you, mean what is conveyed in
the above article. You want to remem-
Der that such talk has been taken for
granted by our people before and
found the Marshfeld Republicans
wanting when the time came. For
instance two years ago you promised if
Upham was elected there would be no
move for a new county up there, yer,
the facts prove that as soon as Upham
was elected a bill was drawn up for the
purpose of creating the County of
Rivers out of territory taken from
Wood, Marathon and Clark counties,
with Marshfeld as the county seat of
said county. All these facts are too
fresh in the memory of residents in
Wood county to take much stock in
your "kiss and make up' intention.
However the majority rule, and if they
desire to forgive Chairman Cole for
calling his trump convention" we will
gladly be counted with the majority
which ever way they decide.
