Slemp's Party Regularity.


Mr.. John w. Eckman, of Pulaski.
one of the strongest individual forces
in the industrial life of Southwest Vir-
ginia-and n Republican OF high stand
ing and influence in his party, has
announced that he will vote for Hon.
Robert Bruce for Congress i'm the fall
election. In explaining the grounds
for his opposition 10 the present Ninth
District Congressman, he concludes an
interview appearing in the Pulaski
Southwest Times by saying that his
latitude is not unlike that of Slemp's
in the Walker-R -Rhea contest when
Slemp was against Walker and
did all he could to defeat the nominee
at that time" This charge against
Colonel Slemp is no new one. 1t has
quite frequently figured before in
Southwest politics. Hon. Stuart F.
Lindsay, If we are not mistaken,
fathered the accusation or one of some
what similar import during two pre-
vious campaigns. Neither Mr.. Eckman
nor Mr.. Lindsay can be dismissed upon
this proposition with mere wave of
OF the hand. What they say is enti-
tied TO consideration and credence, and
thousand of Republicans in the Ninth
know this TO be the case.
Consider, therefore, the sources from
which the advertment emanates. it
takes on the aspect Of striking and
material relevancy TO the present
Ninth District fight Col. Slemp is
making the plea that Republicans
should not regard his individuality in
the present campaign-but it is their
duty to vote for their party-and the
only manner In which this can be ac-
complished is that they shall cast their
ballots for him. "Party regularity
that's the cry with the Slempltes now
when driven to dangerous extremi-
ties. But with what i'll grace this
claim is asserted by Congressman
Slemp, as viewed in the light of the
charges to which we have referred

ity?" By what sort of philosophy car
he justify the claim that however
strongly the Republicans of the Ninth
protest against him and his record
they should nevertheless go TO the
polls and support him? 1t is TO be-
remembered that Col. Slemp is candi
