A REPUBLICAN LOVE FEAST

we see no reason why the fepuDll-
can county convention called for Fri
day, March 9th, should not be regu-
lar love feast.
1t is to be the last convention un-
der the old caucus plan and as such it
should be made memorable. Aside
from all this it would appear that
there is absolutely no reason why the
republicans, no matter what their fac
tional alliance. no matter what their
personal ambitions. should not meet
with glad hand at this convention.
One can hardly find ground upon
which the most pugnacious "war-
hoss'' could find excuse for disagree
anent
1t is greatly regretted by his
friends and admirers in his old home
county that Secretary Leslie M. Shaw
is not before the people as candi-
date for President.
There have been reports as to his
candidacy even so late as last week.
but as the reports have not come from
friendly sources no credence has been
given them here. The people of
Crawford feel that they are close
enough to his confidence so that if he
wished to be considered as candidate
he would have told them.
Mr.. Shaw not having given us
authority to consider his name. it
remains for the republicans to express
through delegates to the state con-
vention. their choice among the other
candidates. Fortunately here again
there is little room for disagreement.
While individual preferences may ex-
ist. it will hardly be disputed that
Iowa is almost unanimously for Taft.
We believe the large majority of the
republicans of this county are for
Taft and thus in the main object of
the convention there is no rom for
Guarrelling.
We hope the convention will be
largely attended and the delegates
will come prepared to make this one
of the happiest of republican gather
ings.
We need all the harmony and en-
'1husiasm we can get to carry US
through the election of this fall.
Some counties with large majorities
may afford the luxury of a factional
fight. Crawl ford cannot afford it..
The man who stirs up strife in the
republican ranks Of this county is
simply making the defeat of the en-
tire ticket in November moral GER
tainty. With nothing to fight about,
with every thing to hope for from
harmony and with certain defeat
ahead of the party without harmony. il
does not seem to be demanding too
much of the judgment and the com
mon sense of the republicans of the
county to urge that this coming con
vention be held without the Earring
or iangling of fractional or persona
strife.
