I5one Of their number and appearing
in your columns lastweek. II there
is one ding more than another which
Tx admire in politics. u IS the ability
}evinced by Republican TO see prini
ciples greater tnan men and to vote
the ticket straight for principles
sake. The best illustration OF tnis
was given by UncIe&Joe Cannon al
FaIrmont a few weeks so when he
said he would not threaten the vel;
fare Of so,G0o,ooo OF AresIdes in this
county by voting for his salnfed

There has never been a time in the
history or this district when the Re.

vote a straight ticket They too rec,

There are plenty of the copies OF the

people, but the true bills had not prob

letter was written. When you
do get one. Mr. Farmer, be

There are six pages Of gross misrep-

as far as we are concerned. There.
are just but new laws on the books

did you ever see the engine Of de-
struction which they could be made
with Democratic prosecuting attor-
ney, assessor and member Of the coun-
ty court in power? The most 8impor-5

There is another good reason for
