THE Meade County Messenger takes
us 10 task for some utterances OF "Uncle
Jonathan" printed in these columns
Personally we know very little about the
late canvass before the Democratic pri-
mary in Meade, but reports outside Of
what Uncle Jonathan has said about it,
are to the effect that it was very badly
conducted. Whisky was used freely at
every speaking. This was done by the
candidates, presumably, to secure votes
and win a nomination But such meth
dds will not be upheld by the better class
OF citizens No man has right to pull
himself into an Office at the expense of
the,good morals of community. More or
less whisky is used in every canvass, but
a wholesale disposition of it isn't approx
ed by any one. Thinking people and
those who are most to be affected in the
conduct OF local affairs will set themssl-
yes against any such proceedings. So far
as the News is concerned we are against
any and all disreputable methods resort
ed to, to secure office. We believe in that
thing which will add to, rather than dis
tract from good citizenship. We want
the best men for Office and when they
come asking for public favor they should
be on their good behavior always 50
far as the Democratic party in this coun-
ty is concerned we have never been
heard 10 boast about its success. For
twenty years we have done what we
could to push it along 1t has met with
,ome progress and Teverses. Just now
The is little disfgured but hopes 20 g,t
here later on. The Messenger can't lay
he blame for the present condition OF
he party at our door, because three
years ago its defeat was almost universal
over the State. That thing cannot be
reversed until we get back to rock bot
tom principles and wise leadership. The
same condition may yet confront the
party in Meade, although it has large
majority To overcome.
