Mr.. L,nney at Boone.
Boone Democrat.


On Saturday lust, during the
Republican county convention, Mr..
Linney appeared and made a char
acteristic speech OF about 40 miu-
utes. The best element of the
Watauga Republicans and a number
OF D4mocrats were in attendance tx
pscting to hear our Congressman
discuss the issues OF the coming cam
paign in a respectful manner, but TO
our disgust and a,tonishment we
were treated to the most vulgar,
filthy sarcasm that We ever listened
to. Why has Mr.. Linney fallen so
low in his morals? A man who has
been elevated by his people to a seat
in Congress ought to ha1e respect
enough Tor his own party even, not
to engage in such low vulgarism as
Mr.. Linney did We have heretofore
had respt ct for Mr. Linney, especial
ly his talent. We have never said
any unkind thing of him.

1t ought not to surprise any body
that Populists in all sections OF the
State are renouncing that party. 1t
is not because they have deserted the
original princi, les upon which the
Populist party was organized. L. Is
because they see that, Instead of con-
tending for financial reform, the
Popul,st Tachinery is in the hands
Of the Republicans and their party is
being used to strengthen the gold
standard and continue corrupt and
low government in North Carolina.
1t is n surprise that any man, not
origin Ally Republicans, except those
who make money 10y selling out their
principles, continues to affiliate With

is controlled by the Republican
