The opponents of Fletcher d. Proc
tors candidacy are talking quite Justify
just now, but we have searched the
Mccullough papers in vain for some
well-grounded reason why Proctor should
not be nominated.
The matter of his nativity isn't as.
sailable.
His business ability they cannot ques-
ton.
His experience as a legislator isn't
hung out upon the outer walls as a topic
for dispute.
His practical everyday touch with the
everyday affairs of his town, his county
and his state doesn't furnish a first-class
point of attack.
His right to aspire to the governor
ship is about on level with that of any
other man who is capable of filling the
office. So he can't be called down for
We turing to aspire.
The two things harped upon by the
supporters of MIR. Proctor's chief compel.
itor are the existence of a father who is
also United States senator; and the
sons mistaken idea that he could come
into the field as a candidate at just the
time he chose to come.
Surely, the opposition rests upon d
fiimsy foundation, and can have little
weight among voters who think for them
