"THE COMBINATION"

The Bedford Democrat has some
thing to say on this subject which is
worth repeating:
"The unseemly scramble for the
Democratic nomination for Governor
does not commend itself to the better
judgment of intelligent voters. But
the fact that Senators and Congress
men are endeavoring TO exercise undue
influence in favor Of a particular can
didate is still more Objectionable. As
private citizens they have a right TO
choose between the aspirants, but the
combination that has been effected
looks very much like an Ofiice-hOlder's
ring that should be rebuked by the
people when the time comes to choose
delegates to the nominating cOnven-
ton"
1t is refreshing, too, to know that
the great Southwest is aroused. I'M
der the leadership Of such men as Hon.
JOS. &. Wysor, of Pulaski, we indulge
the hope that the ring may be broken.
The people can do it.
