Whitecotton's Speech.

In his speech at Salisbury
Saturday, j. H. Whitecotton had
no abuse for the gubernatorial
candidates opposing Mr.. Folk
in fact, he went 80 far as to say
that his personal preference
would have been for either of the
other candidates over Folk, be.
cause he was well acquainted
with them and not with Folk.
He complimented Gov. Dock
cry, for his answering devotion
to the right while the late boo
ding legislature was in session.
The governor, he said. had used
his veto power freely and in so
doing had prevented a large
amount of vicious legislation.
He spoke in favorable terms
of J. N. Gibson, the representa-.
tive from Charlton, who stood
with the members that were op-
posed to corrupt methods in leg
islation.
Mr.. Whitecotton gave it as his
firm belief that every one of the
North Missouri counties, that
had not yet selected delegates,
would round up in the Folk
column.
Upon the whole Mr.. White.
cotton's effort was IN able one in
the advocacy of Mr.. Folk, and
yet it was conservative, and as
such commends itself to every
right thinking Democrat.
Soft words and strong argu.
ments will be found essential in
healing the wounds that have
been made by one of the most
ill-advised campaigns ever made
inside the pale of the Democratic
party.
In the conduct of the cam.
paign neither Folk, Reed nor
Halves are blameless for the
harsh things that have been said
by all of them.
The audience to hear Mr..
Whitecotton was not q large one,
owing, probably, to the inclement
evening. Persons that were
there gave him a very patient
hearing for over two hours. A
portion of those that were pres.
ent were anti-Folk in sentiment.
Whether or not the views of any
were changed we are not advis.
