The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1904-04-04

elusion IS that they are Illogical in all.
Take yet another phase OF the cam
paign. One paper which Processes to be
devoting its efforts 70 tie elevation Of
the-eity morally cues 50 far in its des-
peration and amusement o. to,pnblish
articles, which their author clips from
the editions OF the paper before he dares
take the paper into his home, and ask
ed why he cut those articles out, lie re-
plies that he does not want his sisters
to read them. In other words these
hypocritieal morahsts want to debase
and make wicked other peoples homes
generally. but, are too cowardly to re.
eeiye the censure the members of their
own homes would give them, if. they
We're to become aware OF the fact that
they had spread broadcast immoral and
debasing literature. And vet these very
persons have the audacity TO ask the
people, whose homes they endeavor to
despoiI. 10 vote the ticket they favor,
Also in this connection their endorse
n6nt Of ticket IS enough to disgust
the decent citizen and to fully convince
him of his duty to vote against any
ticket they may endorse.
Again, the wall mas gone forth that
the Republicans are resorting to Doodle
and booze and have associated with Gle,
ments Objectionable. And yet it is a
wen known fact that they nave been
giving orders on saloons for whiskey
and have given money, all they could
raise, to the colored people with view
to bribing them into supporting their

some Of the saloons and promised to see
that the saloons had every possible priv

should come to tie vote. To the sa-
loon people they have said on the same
proposition that they viii see that IL

was promised that there would be no
license in such an-evcnt also knows about
the promise made to the saloon man
that there will be license in such event
and as result, although he is an ar
dent advocate of prohibition, he will not
vote the Citizens or Democratic ticket.
They have INDUCED themselves in try
ing to iniurc individual members of the
Republican ticket by circulating false
reports to the effect that the Republican
ticket was responsible for the embnrrass-
mcnt Of a leading financial institution.
when in fact the oiiiciate of that institu-

the warmest friends and advocates Of
the men who have been thus assailed.
This particular feature .: the campaign
is enough 10 condemn them in the eyes
Of the public
Even farther 90 they. The attempt
is made to bring the great question of
tax.reform into this campaign. and yet,
