vote for the chairmanship of such
committee as would be agreeable
and pleasant to the members of the
country precincts. In my judg-
ment, looking to harmony in the
party, it would be well to select a
chairman from one of your number
residing in the country precincts.
No doubt you have eitfer re-
ceived by letter or through per-
sonal information, statements that
are not true in any particular, and
which are of the same nature as
those put forward last spring at
the meeting of the Central COM
mittee for the express purpose OF
thwarting the will of the people
1t now appears that few persons
in this county at the late election
used their greatest efforts to take
from General Grosveuor what vote,
they could for the purpose of hu
initiating him, and with the hop'
of advancing their own persona

ignation of Mr.. Williams; another
vacancy occurred in the Sand Run
precinct by the alleged removal of
Mr.. Laverty to Athens county; an
other vacancy occurred in the .
Second ward of--Logan by the
death of DR.. Blosser. All these
vacancies were filled in the man
ner provided by the Central COM
mittee under resolution unani-
mously adopted, authorizing the
chairman and secretary of the
committee to fill all vacancies.
The writer of the letter referred
to charges that the defeat of part
of our county ticket and the
scratching of General Grosvenor
was due to few persons who
"used their greatest efforts to take
from General Grosvenor what votes
they could for the purpose of hui
initiating him and with the hope
of advancing their own personal
interests" This is not true. Two
Republicans in Logan, who claimed
to have a personal grievance,
worked openly against him and no
doubt secured some votes. But
the loss of part Of our county
ticket and the loss of votes to Gen
eral Grosvenor is due to an entire
ly different cause. IT WAS A PRO-
TEST OF THE VOTERS OF THE REPUB-
LIcAN PARTY AGAINST THE sELF-As-
sUMED BossIsM OF RECEIVER SANDS.
This man collected as Receiver
of the Peoples Bank of Logan
about seven thousand dollars, and
by virtue of orders of the court,
secured upon his statements, used
the entire amount in alleged eX-
penses and fees, so that not one
penny ever reached the creditors of
the bank. This was money depos-
tied in the bank by the men,
women, children, widows, orphans
and estates of the people of this
locality, and when he became
treasurer of the Republican COM
mittee and assumed to dictate its
candidates and policy, the people
rebelled.
Before you finally make up your
mind in this matter, / earnestly re-
quest you to come to Logan and
fully investigate these charges.
The attempt to make General
Grosvenor an issue in this matter to
bolster up himself will not deceive
any one. , No one in this county is
a more loyal supporter OF General
Grosvenor than am.
With reference to the resolution

Dear Sir: My attention has
been called by several Central

Dec. 9, 1902, and signed by A. G..
Sands, containing certain charges
and insinuations, which these
Committeeman insist ought to be
answered by a member of the Cen

The writer Of that letter is not
a member of the committee, and
never will be as long as they are
elected by the people, and his at
tempt to instruct or BOSS COM

confidence that when the Central
committee meets it will consider
fully all the matters properly be-
fore it and settle them without die
