WINAMAC, Ind, April u.-Defections
from the ranks of the tried and true De-
mocracy of Pulaski county continue to make
the Democratic leaders uncomfortable. The
latest recruit to Republicanism is Isaac l..
Washburn, former president of the County
Council and lifelong Democrat, who, in
a letter to q local paper, denounces the
extravaganza of the present Democratic adj
ministration. which has resulted in adding
80 cents to the tax rate and has made bor-
rowing necessary, whereas, under former
administrations, there was large surplus
in the treasury.
He closes his statement by expressing the
belief that relief from these conditions is
to be found only by voting the Republicans,
into power and announces his intention of
supporting the Republican ticket from top
to bottom.
