Men in these times and places don't
lose friends because of party differences.
Friendship exists here between gentle
men who are enemies politically and
voting their party convictions does not
not alter their friendship. When a man
fights the organized democracy he can't
justly claim exemption or hope TO escape
partisan condemnation on the plea of
personal grounds" He may prove a
true friend, but he can't boast of being
an exemplary party man. A few more
Worthingtons and the democratic party
of Jefferson county might as well turn
itself over to Messrs. T. H. Aldrch, r.
A. Moseley and Jerry Fountain.

democrat and a dangerous citizen now,

cause he fought democracy and Hon. o.

to have operated in such a way as to act

so exclaimed in the public prints, we
guess he will withdraw the statement he
made not long ago in the presence of Mr..
j. NJ. Crowder, which was: Il never ex-
pect to vote the democratic ticket again"
